Chapter 364
Mrs. Lane smiled when she saw Serenity eat with such enthusiasm. As she watched, she suddenly felt hungry as well. She stopped looking at Zachary and started to eat with gusto.
While Mrs. Lane brought the dishes to the kitchen to wash them after the meal, Serenity pulled up a chair and slowly walked to Zachary.
Zachary instantly straightened up like a defensive hedgehog.
The difference this time was, he was not guarding against her. Instead, he was nervous and had no idea what his wife wanted to do to him.
“Mr. York, we have a guest room, but there‘s no bed. After we pick Sonny up later, we‘ll send Mrs. Lane and Sonny back to the store. We‘ll have to go and buy a bed and sheets for her since we can‘t let her sleep on the floor.”
The hedgehog‘s quills flattened at once. “You‘re the lady of the house. You can arrange it however you like.” Zachary had an important meeting this morning and could not spare the time to accompany Serenity to buy the beddings.
“Have you run out of the ten thousand I gave you previously? When I get to the office later, I‘ll use a computer to transfer some money to the living–expenses card. Although we hired Mrs. Lane as a nanny to take care of Sonny, we can‘t treat her poorly. Buy a higher–quality bed and cabinet. Don‘t feel bad about spending the money.”
“I haven‘t used up the money, so you don‘t have to transfer more. There‘s enough money left to buy the furniture for Mrs. Lane. Don‘t worry, I‘m not the kind of person who would abuse the nanny.” Serenity‘s face reddened a bit when he mentioned the living–expenses bank card.

Perhaps because Zachary‘s gaze was intense, Serenity looked over and saw him staring at her. She blinked, smiled at him, and turned back to Mrs. Lane,
Seeing that Mrs. Lane finished washing the dishes, she said with a smile, “We have to go now, Mrs. Lane. Your daytime job is mainly to help me take care of my two–year–old nephew, Sonny. He‘s very obedient when he wants to be, and equally naughty when he‘s feeling mischievous.
Mrs. Lane removed her apron and laughed as she walked out. “All children are like that.”
When Sam arranged for her to come over, he made it clear to her what her job was.
Zachary would increase her pay as long as she did her job well.
Zachary was still standing there with his jacket and tie in his hands. Serenity did not know what he wanted, but Mrs Lane did.
She whispered something to Serenity.
Serenity instantly looked at Zachary.
‘That‘s what he wants?
‘But I don‘t know how to help a man tie a tie. ‘Is it too late to search the steps online and learn now?‘
