Zachary quietly handed the phone to Serenity.
With many netizens blowing up Serenity’s phone with text messages and calls, her phone was out of battery. Serenity could at least get some peace and quiet, but her friends and family had trouble getting in touch.
“Who is it?”
“Nana,” Zachary answered.
Serenity took the phone and greeted, “Nana.”
“I just got online and found out about the tweet, Serenity. Are you okay? Do you need help? Just let Zachary know. He’s been around the business world to know a lot of big CEOs. It’s a piece of cake for him to sort things out.
“Don’t feel shy to ask. You’re married. You can tell me if he doesn’t even help with this tiny favor. I’ll beat him up.”
Grandma May had only learned about it now. It was mainly because the viral story did not get far enough. Plus, the tabloid post about Zachary and Elisa snagged the attention away from the tweet. It did not make much of an impact either when it was retweeted by the press.
Grandma found out from Callum that her darling granddaughter-in-law was painted in a bad light by her relatives.
“I’m alright, Nana. It’s not a big deal. I can handle it, and Zachary has been a huge help. He has been with me the whole day.”
Nana replied with a smile, “It’s good to hear that the boy has a heart and pulls his weight as your husband.”
She had a different thought in mind though. Grandma May was counting on the days for their relationship to blossom once the couple spent more time together. Her grandson should always be there to make Serenity’s problems disappear.
It was the perfect opportunity to develop feelings for each other.
Her grandson would discover the appeal of Serenity’s independence and unyielding self-empowerment while Serenity would learn that her grandson had a soft touch hiding under a tough exterior.
Grandma May could not wait for the day when the young couple became real husband and wife. That would be the time she could welcome a great-grandchild.
