Chapter 1112
Serenity said with a smile, “I know, I know. I’m the luckiest woman alive. I will count my blessings. I mean, I do count blessings.”
Her best friends and family were easily paid off by Zachary, and now they always put in the good word for him.
Well, Zachary was good to Serenity.
“I don’t know what I should get him.”
Serenity puckered her brows.
Her two best friends believed Serenity was tormenting them by showing off her relationship.
It did not affect Jasmine much though as Josh was nice to her too. However, as someone without a partner, Elisa was envious
and jealous.
“Zachary used to have everything but a wife. Though that’s settled because you’re now married to him. He needs children in his
life now. Hurry up and make babies. Get a pair of twins-a girl and a boy.”
With an adorable kid like Sonny in mind, Elisa uttered, “You can have lots of children if they are as cute and smart as Sonny.
Zachary can afford to raise them anyway.
“Seren, any good news from you? I must be the first to know if there is. I want to prepare gifts for my future niece or nephew.”
Jasmine teased her, “Seren’d be telling Mr. York first if she’s pregnant. Don’t fight for the number one spot with Mr. York. He
might just be jealous of you and stop Seren from hanging out with you.”
Elisa remarked in delight, “I was scared of Zachary before, but now he’s scared of me. I’m the older cousin, remember? Hahaha.
It makes me happy every time I’m reminded that Zachary is ranked below me in the family.”
Serenity was blunt. “It’s more like you scare him off.”
Elisa was speechless.
“My Aunt Flo has just finished this month’s visit, so no news of pregnancy. I want a girl and a boy too. Mr. Remy Johnson’s sister-
in-law is carrying twins, I believe. Her due date is around the corner.”

Serenity had heard it from Zachary.
Zachary reflected envy in his tone when he brought up that Ben and his wife were having twins.
Serenity knew very little about the richest family in Anneburg, and the only person she had more information on was Remy.
Serenity’s eyes were on Elisa when she was talking.
Not reading much into the situation, Elisa said with a smile, “The renovation on Mr. Johnson’s house has begun. Mr. Johnson
often dropped by to check on the progress. I would invite him for tea if I ran into him. I also caught wind that his sister-in-law is
carrying twins. Apparently, his other sister-in-law had twins too, twin boys.
“The Johnsons are like the Yorks. Their family seemed to be blessed with only sons.”
Elisa then remarked, “Seren, you’ll be a hero in the York family if you give birth to a daughter. They have been hoping for a girl in
the family for years.”
While the Johnsons were mostly blessed with sons, only Ben’s generation was without a girl. His father had a sister.
The Yorks had not had a girl in the family for generations.
Serenity uttered with a grin, “The pressure is always on the women to have sons. It’s different for me-I am under pressure to
have a daughter. Nana has been nagging about having a great-granddaughter. She said I could expect a handsome reward for
giving birth to a girl.”
“Grandma May mentioned that the push present for giving birth to a boy is fifty million, and five hundred million for a girl. I heard
about it before. All of Grandma May’s daughters-in- law had three sons each: She still hasn’t gotten her wish, and the five
hundred million dollars remained unclaimed.”
Elisa kept her gaze on her cousin as she said this. The message was clear.
