Chapter 1370
“Sir, ma’am, Mr. Zachary is back.”
“What is he doing here?”
Liam asked skeptically, “Did Serenity come back with him?”
“Only two cars returned. Mr. Zachary drove one himself, and the other was the security vehicle. It appears the missus isn’t in the car.”
“Oh.” Liam then instructed the maid, “Tell the kitchen to cook extra servings. Zachary should at least stay for dinner.”
The maid wanted to laugh.
This was Mr. Zachary’s home.
It was normal that Mr. Zachary could dine at his own place.
Yet, Mr. Liam acted as though Mr. Zachary was the guest trying to freeload a meal.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe maid gave the couple some space.
Liam turned to his beloved wife. “Have you figured out a way to checkmate? I’m going if you’re stuck.”
“Let me mull this over. Don’t bother me. I will come up with a way. What did Eunice say? Is Zack back? Oh, he has time to come home?”
“Who knows? He rarely comes back to the manor now that he has a wife. He usually just comes back for a brief talk. It’s like the manor isn’t his home.”
Tania stood up for her son. “Zack said that you’re his role model. He takes after you. He’s a chip off the old block. You boys are the same.”
Zachary’s temper was like his deceased grandfather’s. While Zachary has all the hallmarks of his father, Liam was no different from Zachary when he was younger.
Only, Liam was now old and retired. He was approachable nowadays because all his time was spent with his wife.
As the couple was chatting, Zachary walked into the yard.
The bodyguards did not follow him.
Seeing that his parents were playing chess, Zachary drew close and stood by his mother. He stared at the chess board from an erect position.
“Where’s Seren?” lifting her chin, Tania glanced at her son and asked.
Zachary pursed his lips without a word.
“What’s the matter? Did you get into another row?” Tania asked from experience before turning to her husband. “We should end here, but it’s not that I lost to you. Our son is
not in a good mood. I need to talk to him. We will continue this tomorrow.”

Tania then messed up the chess pieces.
Despite cracking her head, Tania could not gain the upper hand in chess. Still, she was not willing to admit defeat. Hence, she shuffled the pieces and restarted the game
tomorrow. Liam was used to his wife’s tactics.
He took his time in putting away the chess pieces and asked, “You’re always nuts about Seren. You two were good at the social event last night. What happened now?”
“That is how couples can be. Name me a couple who doesn’t fight. We always argued in our younger days,” Tania retorted.
“Sit down, Zack. Tell me what happened. I won’t take Seren’s side unless she’s not at fault. I stand with the truth. I’ll help you talk to Seren if you’re right and vice versa.”
Zachary murmured, “Mom…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough Mom said she stood with the truth, Mom was clearly backing Serenity up.
Of course, Zachary was glad that his mother was supportive of Serenity.
It meant that Tania had accepted Serenity as her daughter–in–law.
“We argued because our opinions clashed.”
Since Nana was not home, Zachary poured his heart to his parents.
Tania asked affectionately, “What’s the matter? I can be the neutral person between you two.”
“I was going to take Seren horseback riding this afternoon, but Seren talked about her recent fatigue while on the way. I thought she was pregnant, so I changed the itinerary
and took her to the hospital instead of the stable.”
Looking pleasantly surprised, Tania and her husband asked, “Are we going to become grandparents?”
Liam said, “Zack, your mom and I will be happy regardless of whether Serenity has a boy or a girl. We won’t be like your nana, nagging for a great–granddaughter. Of course,
we’ll be happier if have a girl for us to treat as a princess.”
