Chapter 1282

FC & Co.’s subsidiary in Wiltspoon could be a group on its own.

The business was growing rapidly.

As the person in charge, Remy would only be busier and be stationed here.

Remy used to spend a week at FC Manor every month and could not be bothered to return to Wiltspoon. Now, it was the other way round–he did not want to leave Wiltspoon.

Jane’s due date was approaching.

Remy was dying to find out if he would get a niece. That would be the reason for him to make a trip to Annenburg right away. However, the trip could wait if he received another nephew in the family.

“You must convince the Stones that she will remain in Wiltspoon even after she marries you. Just let them know that Elisa will only be a walk away from them. It only takes two minutes to go and have dinner with them.”

Remy grinned. “I’ll let them know that they won’t be losing a daughter when Elisa marries me. Instead, they will be gaining a son–in–law.”

Zachary smiled. “You’re as conniving as ever. Here’s to you getting the girl.”

“Thank you.”

Remy must admit that he was a little devious when it came to getting close to Elisa.

“I need to head back to the office.”

Now that Zachary found out where Remy’s heart was, he could go home tonight and report back to his wife. He had been there long enough.

Remy saw Zachary out and watched Zachary leave. He stood at the door, looking at the Stones‘

residence for a while before heading back to his property.

Not too long later, Remy took a ride out of his villa. He was a busy man too.

Of course, he had all the time in the world when he was with Elisa.

Remy could have tea with her all day if Elisa invited him.

Once Zachary was gone, Mrs. Stone was not in a hurry to take a nap. She enjoyed small talk with her nieces.

Mrs. Stone was aware that the sisters had sorted out the property issue back home. She was impressed with the girls.

Other than the marriage of her younger son and daughter, Mrs. Stone was also concerned about Liberty’s future.

“Seren, are you going to come with me to the ball tomorrow night?” Mrs. Stone first asked.

Serenity replied with a smile, “Aunt Audrey, I’m attending Old Mr. Marshall’s celebration. Zachary said he’s a respectable man. He never turns down an invitation from Old Mr. Marshall.”

Mrs. Stone curled her lips. “Yes. I’m happy that you’re going to the event with Zachary as Mrs. York.

You adapt to the circle in no time. Don’t take to heart what others think of you. They won’t do anything to you so long as you’re not out of line.

“You can’t change the fact that you’re Zachary’s wife. People will always say that you’re dependent on Zachary no matter how much work you put into yourself. Things will only change. when you surpass Zachary and people only know Zachary through you.

“Since you can’t change reality, don’t hide and just face it.”

Mrs. Stone was not getting Serenity to give up on trying. She still had to put in the work, but there was no need for her to go out of her way and prove herself.

Time would tell whether Serenity was worthy of her role as Mrs. York.
