He figured he could rely on her for anything!<\/div>\n<div>Liberty, Hank, and their son, Sonny, arrived a bit later than the York family.<\/div>\n<div>Thanks to Serenity\u2019s husband, who was acquainted with the owner of the luxury sedan that Liberty had scratched, the repair costs amounted to only nine thousand dollars. Hank was cautious not to underestimate his new brother-in-law.<\/div>\n<div>Initially, Hank hadn\u2019t taken the meeting seriously, but his perspective shifted completely after meeting Zachary. He was awestruck by how Zachary commanded the room with his impressive presence\u2014something his boss had never managed to do.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cMr. York,\u201d Hank said, all smiles as he extended his right hand to Zachary. \u201cHello, I\u2019m Serenity\u2019s brother-in-law.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Zachary shook Hank\u2019s hand and replied with a polite, \u201cHello, Hank.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>He then turned his attention to Liberty.<\/div>\n<div>Liberty\u2019s first impression of Zachary was that he was impeccably presented. Although he looked quite imposing in photographs and somewhat distant in person, she was pleased with Serenity\u2019s choice in a husband. \u201cSonny, say Uncle.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Liberty encouraged her son to greet Zachary. Sonny was an adorable little boy, inheriting his mother\u2019s striking dark and bright eyes, making it hard not to be captivated by his curious gaze.<\/div>\n<div>Zachary asked, \u201cCan I hold him?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>With delight, Liberty responded, \u201cSure.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>She passed her son to Serenity, who then handed the little one over to Zachary.<\/div>\n<div>Zachary appreciated Liberty\u2019s considerate approach, as she maintained her composure throughout the exchange.<\/div>\n<div>Liberty had first allowed Serenity to hold Sonny before Zachary took him, all to minimize unnecessary physical contact with her new brother-in-law during the transition.<\/div>\n<p>As Zachary and Serenity, a legally married couple, navigated their relationship, they found themselves unencumbered by societal expectations regarding physical affection. <\/p>\n<p>Zachary took it upon himself to carry little Sonny upstairs. Despite not having an extensive vocabulary, Sonny quickly picked up a new word. The other children, including Rowan, tended to shy away from Zachary, which made Rowan particularly eager for Serenity to become his mentor.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, Sonny had no fear of Zachary. Nestled comfortably in Zachary\u2019s embrace, Sonny affectionately referred to him as \u201cUncle.\u201d The newlyweds welcomed the York family into their home and introduced them to one another.<\/p>\n<p>Understanding the challenges the sisters faced after losing their parents at a young age, the Yorks held Liberty in high regard. They admired how she had managed her life and education with the help of her parents\u2019 insurance.<\/p>\n<p>Although Liberty had become a homemaker and was somewhat disconnected from the outside world, she had been well-acquainted with the professional realm prior to her marriage. She could easily see that the Yorks were a cultured and tightly-knit family, a contrast to many rural families.<\/p>\n<p>Grandma May had mentioned that the Yorks hailed from the countryside, yet her children and grandchildren had succeeded in establishing themselves in the city. Although they had relocated to urban life, Grandma May still made frequent visits back to their hometown.<\/p>\n<p>The Yorks owned an estate on the city\u2019s outskirts, complete with farmland, lending credibility to Grandma May\u2019s tales of rural living. One could only wonder if Grandma May had a secret stash of money trees instead of mere crops.<\/p>\n<p>With her sister\u2019s family visiting, Serenity decided it was a good time to begin preparing lunch. To her surprise, Zachary came into the kitchen to lend a hand.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can manage just fine, Mr. York. Why don\u2019t you spend some time with our guests?\u201d she suggested.<\/p>\n<p>Zachary softly replied, \u201cMy family feels right at home. They\u2019ll be just fine without me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou could chat with my brother-in-law,\u201d Serenity encouraged.<\/p>\n<p>At that moment, a chill ran through the air.<\/p>\n<p>In Zachary\u2019s perspective, the situation unfolded quicker than anyone could comprehend. Yet, he kept his distance and replied, \u201cI have nothing in common to discuss with Hank.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Hank, on the other hand, was perceived as a nuisance, always trying to flatter Zachary. Despite his annoying demeanor, Hank held a position as a manager at a well-respected company, suggesting he might possess more substance than just empty words.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 35 The ever-friendly Rowan enjoyed a lively conversation with Serenity.
