Chapter 1205


    “Mm, he said there’s a lunch appointment in the afternoon.”


    Tania said nonchntly, “Tell him you won’t be going then. We haven’t eaten outside or gone shopping


    together before. Zack won’t fight me on this.”


    People have been spreading rumors that she had had a bad rtionship with Serenity. They said


    Serenity had always attended banquets with Mrs. Stone but was rarely seen returning to the manor to


    apany her mother–inw; neither had they eaten together in public or gone shopping.


    Tania wanted to ignore the rumors. She was aware of the status of her rtionship with Serenity.


    However, she was asked about it by her friends whenever she went to y cards with them. She felt


    annoyed.


    Tania gave up on ying cards and looked for her daughter–inw immediately. She wanted to take


    her daughter–inw and splurge at luxury brand boutiques. She would dispel the rumors with concrete


    actions.


    That was the reason for Tania’s sudden visit.


    “Okay.”


    Serenity was about to call Zachary when he called her.


    She picked up his call in front of her mother–inw.


    “Honey, why did my mome looking for you?”

    Zachary was not worried that his mother would bully Serenity.


    His mother used to think Serenity was not good enough for him. She was secretly unhappy. but never


    said harsh words in front of Serenity or made things difficult for his wife.


    When other people were saying Serenity was nosy and calling his mother about it, his mother’s elegant


    manners as Mrs. York was lost. She scolded them to protect Serenity and demonstrated the York


    family’s protectiveness.


    Serenity and his mother would not get into a conflict, but Zachary still wanted to know why his mother


    suddenly went to Serenity’s bookstore.


    “Mom wants to… I’ll let Mom talk to you.”


    Serenity passed the phone to her mother–inw with a smile. “Mom, you can tell Zachary.”


    Tania took the phone and talked to her son over the phone. “Zack, you don’t have to pick Serenity up


    anymore. I’m borrowing your wife from you for half a day.”


    Zachary said, “Mom, what are you doing?”


    “Nothing. I just wanted to have a meal with Serenity and go shopping with her. I think I’ve never bought


    her a gift before. I’ll go shopping with her and buy something she likes.”


    Zachary could at least guess his mother’s intentions.


    “Did those chatty people talk nonsense in front of you again?”


    Tania did not answer him, but her silence meant tacit agreement.


    Zachary frowned. Those women really loved to gossip. They did not dare call his mom anymore, but


    they still made the rumors reach her ears.


    To tackle those rumors, the best idea was for Serenity and Tania to appear together to show that they


    had a good rtionship.


    Zachary was unhappy that his wife, who was initially apanying him to his lunch engagement, was


    snatched away by his mother. However, he could not fight against his mother for his wife.


    “You can borrow my wife if you want to. Just remember to return her to me at night.”


    The possessive Mr. York had no choice but to hand over his wife.


    Tania smiled and said, “Don’t worry. I know. I won’t monopolize Seren.”


    Serenity was speechless.


    Tania handed the phone back to Serenity. Serenity could not be lovey–dovey with Zachary in front of


    her mother–inw. She heard most mothers–inw could not stand their daughter -inw being


    affectionate with their son. It would give them the impression that the son they had painstakingly raised


    was stolen.


    Serenity’s interactions with Zachary were proper when they were with her mother–inw.
