Chapter 1276

Serenity said, “Aunt Audrey, Liberty wants to go to the car dealership to buy a car, and I have to go back to the bookshop later. Are you and Elisa free to accompany Liberty to look at cars? I don’t think it is safe to roam the streets every day riding her e–bike with Sonny. That’s why I suggested she buy a car. Zachary said he would give her one, but she didn’t want it.”

“I am capable of buying a car myself. I don’t need Zachary to give me one. I know Zachary is my brother–in–law, but I can’t take his things just like that and be a freeloader. I don’t want people to say that our family wants to take advantage of your in–laws.”

They were poor, unlike the rich Yorks. However, Liberty does not intend to be a burden to her sister.

She did not want any benefits from the Yorks.

Touched, Serenity said, “Liberty, Zachary wouldn’t think badly of it, and neither would my in–laws.”

Serenity knew her sister would always be considerate toward her.

“I know Zachary and the in–laws won’t think that way, but I still don’t want those people out there to say that about you. There was a time when Granddad and the others often troubled Zachary by asking him for money, which affected your reputation to some extent.

“It was fortunate that everyone knew the conflict between us and our old folks. Most of them sympathize with you. However, as your sister, I can’t do things that drag you down. Besides, I’m also capable of earning money, and I can buy whatever I want with my own money. That way, I can spend the money with peace of mind and joy.”

Better to rely on oneself, than to rely on others.

Elisa said, “Seren, you go on with your work. We’ll go with Liberty for the car survey.”

“I’ll leave it to you.

Elisa glared at Serenity and said, “Say that once more, and I’m going to be mad at you.”

Serenity giggled.

A maid entered abruptly and said, “Sir, Madam. Mr. York is here.”

All eyes were on Serenity.

Red–faced, Serenity mumbled, “What brought him here?”

Elisa teasingly replied, “He’s here because he misses you, duh. Our house is like a lion’s den to him.

It’s only because you are here that he dares set foot in our house.”

After giving Elisa a light punch, Serenity stood up and said, “I’ll show him in.”

“I’ll go too.“.

“Elisa,” Mrs. Stone called out to her daughter, clearly disapproving of her accompanying Serenity to greet Zachary.

Elisa explained, “Remy is here. He is sitting out there at the gazebo as we speak. I’ll go bring him in.”

Earlier, when the housemaid told Elisa about Remy’s arrival, she ordered the maid to brew some tea and serve it to him along with some fruits and refreshments.

Now that the situation between Clive and Alice had been settled, she was reminded that Remy was still outside. It would be rude to keep him waiting.

“Mom, have someone prepare cutlery and plates for two.”

Elisa locked Serenity’s arm in hers and walked out.

Mrs. Stone exchanged glances with her husband.

Whenever their daughter was at home, that new neighbor of theirs would find an excuse to drop by.

Sometimes, he would even stay for meals.

Elisa and Remy got along harmoniously. So long as Remy dropped by, she would almost always. spare some food.

In the past, Remy would politely decline the offer. However, he has become more daring over time. All it took was for Elisa to ask, and he would blissfully stay for a free meal.

It was obvious to both Mr. and Mrs. Stone how the two felt about each other. They were once young and in love too.

Remy would either bring some of Elisa’s favorite snacks or some inexpensive nicknacks every time he visited. His actions were able to please Elisa time after time.

Perhaps he had fallen for Elisa.

Furthermore, Remy was the fifth young master of the Johnsons. He was on par with Zachary in every aspect, and thus an excellent match for Elisa. However, Mrs. Stone took into consideration. that the Johnsons live in Annenburg, which was quite far away. As Elisa was her only daughter, she was reluctant to marry her daughter off to a distant place.
