Chapter 943
When Zachary received the call from the bodyguards, he was at Wiltspoon Hotel, having a meeting with a client.
After hearing from the bodyguards that Serenity had entered the drugstore to buy pregnancy tests, his hand holding the phone
clenched, although he was still relatively calm. He said in his deep voice, “Got it.”
After hanging up, Zachary immediately placed a call to Callum.
“Hey.”
“Callum, where are you now?”
“I’m still in the office, doing some overtime.”
Lately, his cousin had been working nonstop and everyone under him was tired to their bones.
Even Callum, as the COO, was also having a hard time. After dinner, he still had to work overtime.
“Come to the hotel now to discuss our collaboration with Mr. Fletcher. We’ve had a few meetings about this, so you should know
about it.”
“Alright.”
Callum did not even dare ask where Zachary was going at the last minute. His cousin told him to go to the hotel and off he went.
The York Corporation office was not far from Wiltspoon Hotel. Very quickly, Callum arrived at the hotel.
After reaching the meeting room, he noticed his cousin was long gone from the hotel and only Kevin York, who was in charge of
the hotel operations, and his secretary were waiting with Mr. Fletcher and his associates. Kevin’s main field of occupation was in
the food and beverage industry, so all the hotels under York Corporation’s banner were managed by him.
Kevin was not familiar with the other projects within the company, so as he accompanied Mr. Fletcher, he could only talk about
some other topics. Seeing that Callum had arrived, Kevin breathed a sigh of relief.
“Mr. Fletcher, the COO is here, so you can discuss it with him.”
Kevin York hastily handed over Mr. Fletcher and his associates to Callum as he prepared to withdraw himself.
He did not ever want to get caught by Zachary to fill in for him at the last minute again.
Callum had met Mr. Fletcher a few times before and he smiled as he shook hands. with him first before sitting down beside
Kevin.
“Where’s Zachary?” Callum asked Kevin in a whisper.
“He left. I was caught at the last minute to fill in for him. I’m not familiar with the company’s other projects so now that you’re here
and taking over, I’m leaving.”
Callum acknowledged him with a hum.
Kevin smoothly took his leave after making his excuses, taking his secretary with him.
Elsewhere, Serenity brought her sister and her nephew back to their place. They had all eaten prior so there was no need to
busy themselves in the kitchen again.
Serenity raced to the bathroom as soon as she entered the house.
Liberty walked to the sofa to sit down, carrying her son. She tried to wake him as he had not showered yet.
After Sonny opened his eyes and looked around, he closed his eyes again. He wanted to keep sleeping.
Liberty had no choice but to carry him back to his room and let him sleep first.
After coming out of the room, she walked to the bathroom and knocked on the door, asking her sister who was inside, “Seren,
how is it?”
The door to the bathroom opened.
Serenity came out and she passed the pregnancy test to her sister for her to see.
“I didn’t take the test.”
Liberty glanced at it and asked her, “Why not? Do you not know how to use it?”
“After opening it, I realized I got my period. That’s why I didn’t take the test.”
From Serenity’s tone, Liberty could not tell if she was grateful or disappointed.
“Well, I did say you’re only two days late so you might not be pregnant. It’s still pretty normal for it to be early or late within a
week’s time,” Liberty said.
“I just wanted to take the test so the next time Zachary suggests a check–up again, I can tell him clearly that he isn’t going to be
a father yet.”
Since the packaging had already been ripped open, even if it had not been used, Serenity threw the pregnancy test into the trash
and walked to the sofa to sit down with her sister. She picked up the TV remote and turned the TV on.
“Liberty, I’ve been with Zachary for a while now. We haven’t been deliberately using contraception, but... I’m not pregnant yet.
Could there something be wrong with my body?”
Serenity could not help but suspect that there was something wrong with her body since she had not managed to get pregnant.
“You get medical examinations every year, so there shouldn’t be a problem. When it comes to this, fate also comes into play. If
the time hasn’t come yet, even if you do it every day, you won’t be able to get pregnant. So many couples have great
relationships and have been married longer than you two but still haven’t gotten pregnant.”
