Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 3575

Serenity followed Sonny and Titus to their room, watched them climb into bed, and tucked them in with a quilt. She turned on a small light, switched off the main one, and said, “Sleep well. Don’t get up to play, and don’t stay up talking all night. If I hear you talking, we’ll cancel tomorrow’s trip to the children’s park.”

Though the boys were only three or four years old, they chatted like adults when together, able to talk about anything for hours.

Serenity thought that when these two grew up, their sharp tongues would fool many.

Sonny and Titus exchanged glances and replied in unison, “We’ll go to sleep and won’t talk.”

They liked chatting, but going out to play tomorrow sounded better.

Serenity leaned in and kissed them goodnight, whispering, “Good night, have sweet dreams.”

She gently touched her nephew’s head.

Instead of leaving right away, Serenity sat outside the room until the boys were fast asleep, then she returned to her own room.

She found new WhatsApp messages on her phone, including two from Zachary.

One was a photo of Zachary at his desk with his computer on, showing that he was indeed on a business trip and busy with work.

The second message read: “Wife, I miss you. I’ll come back to pick you and Sonny up when I’m done.”

Serenity stared at the photo for a long time before replying: “Go to bed early and don’t overwork yourself. I’m going to sleep too. Your son kept kicking me just now, as if protesting and telling me to rest.”

Zachary quickly replied, telling her to go to bed immediately, followed by a hug emoji.

Serenity lay on her side in bed, feeling uncomfortable lying on her back because of her growing belly.

Serenity chased them, but just as she was about to catch up, her father turned and said, “Seren, don’t follow us. You can’t come where we’re going. Go back.”

He then pushed her away.

Serenity suddenly woke up.

It was still dark, though it was already five in the morning.

In winter, five in the morning was still pitch black, unlike summer when it was light by half past five.

Serenity stared at the ceiling, replaying the dream in her mind. She closed her eyes again, silently pleading, “Dad, Mom, I want to see you again. Please come into my dreams again.”
