Chapter 4487
Serenity smiled. "I think so too, Grandma. If it's okay with you, I'll secretly take a video of them interacting and show it to you. I'm in Eaglioncile now, and I'll keep a close eye on Romina. I get the feeling River sees her as a sworn enemy, but he still says she has a good personality-so she must be pretty decent." "Great. Get more videos of them together for me-especially if they argue. That's the most fun to watch," the old lady said, amused.
She enjoyed watching couples who were like happy enemies.
Then she asked, "Have you called Zack yet?"
Serenity replied, "Not yet. I wanted to talk to you first, then I'll give him a call. He's at work and probably busy."
The old lady chuckled. “Then call him quickly, or he'll start pouting again. He used to be so generous, but ever since getting married and becoming a father, he's
turned stingy."
He got jealous easily and even competed with his kids for Serenity's attention. Not even his beloved baby daughter could take his top spot in Serenity's heart. Whenever she focused too much on the kids, Zachary would get jealous and act all sour-his bitterness could be tasted from miles away. The old lady hung up first, telling Serenity to go call Zachary.
She knew her grandson well-she had raised him, after all.
And she was right. Zachary was sulking.
He was annoyed that Serenity had been in Eaglioncile all day and hadn't called him. Sure, she messaged him after landing to say they'd arrived safely-but that was it.
She hadn't called once since.
To Zachary, it felt like Serenity had taken the kids and left him behind, like she loved them more than him.
People often say that when a woman becomes a mother, her world revolves around her children, and it's easy for her to forget about her husband.
Zachary worked so hard to make sure that didn't happen. He thought he had done a great job. But the moment Serenity left, it was clear-her heart belonged to their kids.
He sighed. Maybe they should've waited a couple of years and enjoyed married life before having children.
But then he remembered how much pressure Serenity had been under when they were struggling to conceive. The guilt made him take back what he'd just thought. Yes, a romantic two-person world would've been nice-but not at the cost of her happiness or peace of mind.
At that moment, Zachary was in a meeting, clearly distracted. Sitting beside him were Callum and Josh, who exchanged glances.
They didn't have to ask what was wrong-they already knew.
Zachary's emotional anchor was away on a trip, and he was feeling it.
The president's wife hadn't called.
Josh couldn't help but think, Can't he just call her himself?
Zachary could be so stubborn. He clearly wanted to talk to his wife, yet insisted on waiting for her to call him first.
She was probably too busy traveling with the kids to remember.
"Bro," Callum whispered.
He had to call him two or three times before Zachary snapped out of his thoughts. When he looked at Callum, his icy glare made Callum instantly regret calling him.
Callum had just wanted to snap him out of his daze. Someone had finished presenting a project plan, and Zachary hadn't said a word. The guy was so nervous, he was sweating bullets.noveldrama
Zachary quickly realized what was going on and motioned for the presenter to
return to his seat. Though he'd been zoning out, he had reviewed the plan before and remembered it well.
He approved it.
