"I should move around more when I'm pregnant. It's not conducive to childbirth if I lay in bed every day."

Zachary neither agreed nor refused her. He just said, "We'll go to a hospital tomorrow for a check-up and see what the doctor says. Don't do anything strenuous for now."

"What strenuous stuff would I do anyway? I don't need to climb mountains or till the fields. I just take care of my small business. At most, I'll run around a little. I'll also pay attention to my physical condition. If I feel unwell, I'll definitely rest up.

"In any case, you can't be like Josh who stopped Jasmine from doing everything."

Zachary defended Josh. "Doesn't Ms. Sox go to the bookstore every day to work? Josh doesn't stop her from doing everything."

"You mean I can go work at the bookstore every day too?"

"You were running the bookstore when I met you."

Serenity was silent.

"As for the fruits and vegetables business, you can take care of it if it's in Wiltspoon, but if there's a need to travel, then ask Elisa to go. If she really can't go and you have to be the one who goes, tell me so I can accompany you."

"Okay."

Serenity agreed with him.

He was a little more generous than Josh. At least he still agreed to her taking care of the company's affairs.

Josh only agreed to let Jasmine watch over the bookstore.

As the couple chatted, the journey felt shorter.

They soon returned to the city.

Zachary drove Serenity straight to a restaurant near Brynfield. Serenity used to pack breakfast in the nearby vegetable market.

However, due to the time, breakfast diners like Liberty's All You Can Eat, which mostly operated during the mornings, had already closed their doors.

In the end, it was a food truck that satisfied Serenity's craving for spicy fries with lots of sauerkraut.

Zachary did not eat.

He simply sat across from his beloved wife and watched her indulgently.

When he saw her eating with relish, he could not help but think of when they had just gotten married.

The break-in period for the couple was also a time for them to cultivate their feelings.

"Is it good?"

"The sauerkraut is good. They taste the way I like it.'

Serenity ate to her heart's content.

Zachary laughed. "The cook added a lot of sauerkraut for you. Even though I'm not eating, I can smell how sour the sauerkraut is."

"It's good that they're sour. They won't be delicious if they're not."

"It seems you like sour food. There's an old wives' tale that says pregnant women crave spicy food if they're having a girl and sour food if they're having a boy. Is there no hope for us to have a girl?" Zachary felt like he was getting greedy.

Before his wife got pregnant, he felt that it would be enough if she got pregnant. He would be happy whether the baby was a boy or a girl.

Now that his wife was pregnant, he felt that it was better to have a girl. He wanted a lovely daughter like Chloe.

Every time he saw Ben's satisfied expression when he held his daughter in his arms, Zachary felt envious from the bottom of his heart.

"You can't judge the baby's sex according to a pregnant woman's appetite. My sister loved eating spicy food when she had Sonny. She wouldn't eat anything unless it was spicy. Her then mother-in-law and sister-in-law said that she must be having a girl since she became so fond of spicy food.

"In the end, as you can see, Sonny is a boy.

"That's why you can't listen to old wives' tales. We don't have to guess whether we're having a girl or a boy. It has been decided from the moment it was conceived.

"In any case, I'll love them no matter if they're a boy or a girl. It's our baby that we've been wanting for a year.”

Although Serenity also wanted an adorable daughter like Chloe, she would like a son just as much.
