PopularNovelChapter 327
After the mother and son ended their call, Zachary frowned and thought about it. He then went ahead
and asked the lady in front of him who was holding her kitty on the balcony swing. “Did you meet my
mom without my knowledge?”
Serenity froze.
She had not mentioned the encounter with her mother-in law to him. How did he know?
Zachary walked up to her and stood opposite her. His burning dark eyes locked on her pretty face, and
he asked again, “Did you meet my mom today?“. Serenity saw he was still holding his cell phone and
thought her mother–in–law had called to complain to him about her, so she quickly explained, “I
bumped into your mom when I was buying clothes for you. I wanted to greet her, but maybe she didn‘t
recognize me. She walked away with her friend while laughing and talking, so I didn‘t greet her.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZachary was a smart person.
Tania was his mother. Althoughhe was brought up by his grandparents, he did not alienate his parents.
His relationship with his parents was cordial too.
He knew his mother very well.
His mother definitely did not want people to know that Serenity was her daughter–in–
law. It was to help him hide
the fact that he was married, and also because she was not entirely pleased about Serenity. She had
nothing against Serenity as a person, but she felt that the gap between Serenity‘s background and her
son was too large.
His mother felt heartbroken for him. His grandmother had nine grandsons, but her son had to be the
one who married Serenity as a show of gratitude.
After a moment‘s silence, Zachary said, “My mom is a little nearsighted, but she doesn‘t like to wear
glasses. Even if she might see people she knows when she‘s out, she always looks at others for cues.
Unless she‘s very familiar with the person, she‘ll just walk by and pretend she doesn‘t know them
because she doesn‘t dare to greet them. Serenity understood now. “I see. It‘s no wonder she saw me
but quickly pretended not to know me earlier. I couldn‘t bring myself to greet her either because I was
afraid of making things awkward.
“I‘ll tell Mom to wear glasses when she goes out shopping next time, lest something like this happens
again. She thought about it when she got home and felt that the person looked like you, so she called
to ask me. I was confused and figured that you two might have met.”
“You can tell her to wear contact lenses if she feels uncomfortable wearing glasses.” Zachary hummed.
Seeing that she adored the pets, he looked at the time and asked her, “Do you want to take them
downstairs and have a stroll around the neighborhood? We‘re usually busy and only have time to

“Are you accompanying me?”
Zachary‘s gaze softened slightly. “Since I proposed it, I‘ll play my part as a gentleman to walk with you.”
Serenity laughed and picked up the little kittens.
The kittens were still unfamiliar with the new environment, so the couple did not bring them out. They
only brought the dog downstairs for a walk.
After moving in, the couple seldom sauntered in the area.
It was almost ten at night, but the small garden in the community was still lively. Many children got carri
ed away with playing and refused to go home, so they had to be coaxed by their parents and carried a
way. For some kids who were still not old
enough to go to preschool, their parents allowed them to continue having fun.
The parents felt it was easier to tuck their children into bed if the latter got tired from playing.
“How is your sister doing after she got home?” Zachary asked about his sister–in– law while walking.
“Tell me if you need help. I‘ll try my best to help you. You don‘t have to treat me courteously. We‘re still
husband and wife, so your troubles are my troubles. Your sister is also my sister. I have great respect
for her. Serenity turned to look at him.
