Chapter 4490
Serenity said with a grin, “Are you serious? Those are your children too. Don’t you love them? Every day when you come home from work, you ask about Belle before you ask about me. I should be the jealous one here.”
“Don’t get too jealous,” Zachary laughed. “It’ll make your teeth soft and ruin your appetite. I can’t help it—I just get jealous of the kids. They’re always stealing your attention. Anytime we want a moment alone, those two little ones squeeze in between us and demand your time. Even at night, when I want to get close to you, I have to be on high alert for them barging in.”
He used to worry about just one kid. Now it was two. Even though the baby had grown up a bit, they had Belle now, and she still slept in their bed. Once she was older, they’d move her into her own room.
Zachary loved his kids, but when they interrupted his alone time with Serenity, he couldn’t help but feel a little bitter—like he’d created his own little love rivals.
Serenity chuckled. “I remember someone once said Belle was their world, their everything. And now look at you, acting like she’s in the way. If Belle finds out you’re complaining about her, she might ignore you for a whole month. You’re too greedy.”
Zachary quickly surrendered. “Wife, I’m just venting. I don’t actually dislike Belle. She’s our only daughter—of course she’s our darling. Since we had her, I’ve stopped being jealous of Ben. I mean, I, Zachary York, finally have a daughter! The York family’s no longer a boys-only club, thanks to Belle. Avah’s in elementary school now—she’s beautiful, smart, and mature.”
Didn’t earlier chapters said that Maverick was 6 years old and Belle was a little over one year? Now they’re saying Belle is six. So how old is Maverick if that’s the case. Is the author forgetting what she writes?
