Chapter 248 A Family Of Three

• Before his marriage, Zachary had been pulled into countless social obligations, his calendar always packed and his energy stretched thin. Even his grandfather had warned him not to overextend himself, advising him to take care of his health. But he was young then, ambitious, with a constant feeling that others in the corporation were watching him, waiting for him to slip. He felt he had to work twice as hard, wanting to live up to the faith his grandfather had shown in his leadership.
• After their marriage, though, things began to shift. The demands on his time slowly eased, and he would often wrap up his workday and come home in time to have dinner with her. It was hard to deny that he cared deeply—otherwise, how could she have convinced him to step back from his relentless schedule?
• Before their life together, he'd had little patience for his employees' mistakes, quick to lose his temper in the high-pressure world of corporate deadlines. Yet, as Lenora looked back, she realized she had rarely seen him be anything but fair and calm with his team.
