As soon as Zachary entered the pavilion, his phone rang.

He glanced at the screen—it was Evan.

“It's the fourth brother,” Zachary muttered quietly, “It must be something urgent.” He still got a bit anxious whenever Evan called, as it often meant Evan needed a favor.

Serenity took a seat at the stone table, and Zachary instinctively placed his hand in front of her belly to shield it, ensuring she wouldn't accidentally bump into the table as she sat down.
