Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2770

Hearing the last two sentences from Zachary, Josh chuckled. “I don’t nag you, but you have no idea how busy and tired I am. We agreed before that when you’re back, you’d let me take a few days off. I have to remind you so you’ll keep your word.

“And also, you promised that next year when Jasmine gives birth, I get a two-month paternity leave.”

Zachary replied, “It’s not like you’re the one giving birth. Why do you need that long of a paternity leave? Taking one month off is enough to take care of your wife during her postpartum recovery.

“Plus, so many members in your family are around. After postpartum, you won’t need to take care of her. I indeed promised to give you two months of leave at that time, and I thought it was quite generous. Yet, you still find it insufficient.”

Josh retorted, “When Serenity gives birth, and if you manage to come to the office every day, work as usual, and don’t want to take care of your wife during her postpartum, then I’ll only take a one-month paternity leave. I may not be the one giving birth, but as a husband, I should be by my wife’s side when she needs help the most.”

Zachary responded, “Well, let’s see how it goes. If the company isn’t too busy at that time, I’ll give you a three-month leave. Is that okay?”

Considering the situation, Josh also wished that he could be with his wife when she gave birth, offering a helping hand.

More care should be taken especially during the crucial postpartum period.

Josh quickly said, “Serenity, you heard that, right? Zachary said he’ll give me a three-month leave when the time comes.”

Serenity laughed, “I heard it. Don’t worry, I’ll be your witness. When the time comes, I’ll make sure Zachary fulfills his promise.”

Jasmine was a few months earlier than her, and the baby was due in May next year.

With New Year’s approaching, Josh had already discussed her paternity leave for next year.
