Married at First Sight

Chapter

4438 Grandma York was far more entertaining than Old Lady Johnson.

The little ones loved hanging out with her.

Old Lady Johnson often joked in a jealous tone that all her great-grandkids seemed more like York kids than Johnsons.

"Aww, Avah, you remember Grandma York!" the old lady cooed, kissing her soft cheek. Avah wrapped her arms around the old woman's neck and gave her a kiss back, which melted her heart on the spot.

She sat down next to Jane with Avah in her arms and reached out to pat Enzo's head with her free hand. "What about you, Enzo? You don't want to fight for Grandma's attention?"

"Grandma York!" Enzo called, stretching out his little arms toward her.noveldrama

Jane chuckled. "Your grandma's already holding your sister." But the old lady waved her off and happily took Enzo, too. "It's fine, Jane. They're not heavy.

I can hold both of them."

She was beaming from ear to ear.

Zachary looked at Ben and shrugged. "This is how Grandma is—once the kids show up, she forgets she even has grandkids."

His own grandmother hadn't even looked at him since walking in.

Ben just laughed. "I'm used to it."

Before becoming a dad, Ben used to be the golden grandson. But once the kids came, his ranking in the family dropped like a rock-not just with his grandma, but with his parents too.

The same thing happened at Jane's side of the family. If they brought the kids over, her parents were thrilled. But if it was just Ben and Jane? The enthusiasm dropped considerably.

Even Jane's mom had said once, "What's the point of you two coming if you didn't bring the kids?"

It was the same story everywhere once you have kids, you're second-string.

Tania and the two sisters-in-law also gathered around, doting on the kids and chatting with Jane.

"Aunt Tania," Jane said, "I'm going to go upstairs and see Serenity. Can I leave the kids with you for a bit?"

"Of course," Tania said with a smile.

Jane followed Zachary upstairs.

He knocked gently and said, "Babe, are you sleeping? Jane's here to see you.” Serenity had already gotten Jane's message and knew she was coming. "I'm awake," she answered.

When she heard the knock, she'd thought it was Grandma again. She quickly hid her phone under the pillow and lay back.

But when she heard Zachary's voice, she sat up, grabbed her phone, and placed it back on the bedside table.

She got ready to open the door-but Zachary had already come in with Jane. They were close, so he didn't think twice about bringing her into the bedroom. "Seren!" Jane greeted her warmly and walked over.

Serenity started to get up, but Jane quickly stopped her. "Stay put-rest. Don't worry about being polite with me."

Jane sat on the edge of the bed, and Zachary handed her a glass of warm water before saying, "You two chat. I'll leave you alone-Ben's downstairs."

Then he left them to talk.
