Chapter 4643
The late Old Lady Johnson used to keep a close eye on her great-granddaughter whenever she saw Old Lady York nearby—she was genuinely afraid the York matriarch would secretly snatch the little girl away.
After Ben’s cousins got married, just like Zachary’s brothers, they all had sons.
Ben and Jane were a bit luckier than Zachary and Serenity—they had both a son and a daughter in their first pregnancy. Serenity, on the other hand, had to go through a second pregnancy to have both.
For the women of the York family, having both a son and a daughter—even in the second pregnancy—was considered extremely lucky. Just look at the third wife, who couldn’t have a daughter even after four children.
“Brother, if we were guaranteed to have a daughter in a second pregnancy, we’d be all for it,” Kevin said. “But the odds aren’t in our favor. Based on our family history, we’d probably have another boy. Forget it—these two are already enough to give us headaches.”
Kevin didn’t want another child, and Hayden wasn’t pushing for one either.
