Chapter 1205
“Mm, he said there’s a lunch appointment in the afternoon.”
Tania said nonchalantly, “Tell him you won’t be going then. We haven’t eaten outside or gone shopping together
before. Zack won’t fight me on this.”
People have been spreading rumors that she had had a bad relationship with Serenity. They said Serenity had
always attended banquets with Mrs. Stone but was rarely seen returning to the manor to accompany her mother–
in–law; neither had they eaten together in public or gone shopping.
Tania wanted to ignore the rumors. She was aware of the status of her relationship with Serenity.
However, she was asked about it by her friends whenever she went to play cards with them. She felt annoyed.
Tania gave up on playing cards and looked for her daughter–in–law immediately. She wanted to take her daughter–
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtin–law and splurge at luxury brand boutiques. She would dispel the rumors with concrete actions.
That was the reason for Tania’s sudden visit.
“Okay.”
Serenity was about to call Zachary when he called her.
She picked up his call in front of her mother–in–law.
“Honey, why did my mom come looking for you?”
Zachary was not worried that his mother would bully Serenity.
His mother used to think Serenity was not good enough for him. She was secretly unhappy. but never said harsh
words in front of Serenity or made things difficult for his wife.
When other people were saying Serenity was nosy and calling his mother about it, his mother’s elegant manners as
Mrs. York was lost. She scolded them to protect Serenity and demonstrated the York family’s protectiveness.
Serenity and his mother would not get into a conflict, but Zachary still wanted to know why his mother suddenly
went to Serenity’s bookstore.
“Mom wants to… I’ll let Mom talk to you.”
Serenity passed the phone to her mother–in–law with a smile. “Mom, you can tell Zachary.”
Tania took the phone and talked to her son over the phone. “Zack, you don’t have to pick Serenity up anymore. I’m
borrowing your wife from you for half a day.”
Zachary said, “Mom, what are you doing?”
“Nothing. I just wanted to have a meal with Serenity and go shopping with her. I think I’ve never bought her a gift
before. I’ll go shopping with her and buy something she likes.”
Zachary could at least guess his mother’s intentions.
“Did those chatty people talk nonsense in front of you again?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTania did not answer him, but her silence meant tacit agreement.
Zachary frowned. Those women really loved to gossip. They did not dare call his mom anymore, but they still made
the rumors reach her ears.
To tackle those rumors, the best idea was for Serenity and Tania to appear together to show that they had a good
relationship.
Zachary was unhappy that his wife, who was initially accompanying him to his lunch engagement, was snatched
away by his mother. However, he could not fight against his mother for his wife.
“You can borrow my wife if you want to. Just remember to return her to me at night.”
The possessive Mr. York had no choice but to hand over his wife.
Tania smiled and said, “Don’t worry. I know. I won’t monopolize Seren.”
Serenity was speechless.
Tania handed the phone back to Serenity. Serenity could not be lovey–dovey with Zachary in front of her mother–
in–law. She heard most mothers–in–law could not stand their daughter -in–law being affectionate with their son. It
would give them the impression that the son they had painstakingly raised was stolen.
Serenity’s interactions with Zachary were proper when they were with her mother–in–law.
