Chapter 650
Married at First Sight
Alice blurted, âWeâre also acquainted with the York family. Should we invite them too?â
After asking, she snapped back to her senses and hurriedly slapped her hand over her mouth, quickly glancing at her sisterâinâlaw. âSorry, I was talking nonsense.â
She even stole a glance at Serenity to see if the latter had any reaction to the mention of the York family.
Alice thought in her heart, âAre Serenityâs inâlaws really the York family?â
Audrey was not upset at her daughterâinâlaw and said, âThey wonât send someone even if we invite them. Letâs not make a fool of ourselves.â
The elders of the York family did not fancy her daughter.
Elisa had liked Zachary for many years and openly pursued him, but the elders of the York family never expressed any thoughts, indicating that the York family did not want to ease relations with the Stone family and become inâlaws.
Audrey felt that finding her nieces was a grand and happy event. She did not want the attitude of the York family to spoil her good mood.
Elisaâs heart ached, but she did not show it on her face. She smiled and said, âDonât worry about me, Alice. It was Mom who was vague with her words. She said to invite everyone we know, which includes the York family.â
âI wonât invite them, Elisa.â
Audrey patted the back of her daughterâs hand. Although she admired the young men of the Yorks, the two families had been at odds for a long time. Even if her daughter did not love Zachary, the two families would not send invitations to each other.
She supposed the stiff relationship between the two families would not be eased in her lifetime.
There was no trace of reconciliation between Clive and Zachary, so maybe it would have to wait till the next generation.
âLunch is ready, Maâam,â a maid walked up behind Audrey and spoke respectfully.
Audrey immediately said to Serenity and Liberty, âLetâs eat first. After lunch, we can relax for a while, then Iâll take you out shopping. Weâll shop till we drop!â
âAunt Audrey, we donât need to buy anything.â
Liberty tried to decline politely.
Audrey deliberately pulled an unhappy face. âLiberty, do you not want to go on a shopping spree with me?â Serenity laughed. âThatâs not what my sister meant, Aunt Audrey. We donât need to buy anything for the banquet. We have clothes to wear.â
âWhat you have is yours, but I want to buy more for you. Thereâs Sonny as well. I want to dress him up as a handsome little gentleman.â
Elisa laughed. âOur Sonny is already a handsome little gentleman.
âIâve liked Sonny since the first time I saw him. Back then, I envied Seren for having such a cute nephew. I never thought that he would be my nephew too.â
Elisa smiled smugly.
She also had a nephew now.
Everyone was amused by her.
Serenity held Sonnyâs hand and followed Audrey into the dining hall.
Beep beep-
Her phone received a new message.
She took out her phone and opened WhatsApp. Elisa, who was right beside her, inadvertently glanced over and saw that the person who sent the message was âMr. York, Sudden Husbandâ.
Elisa teased, âSeren, does your husband send you messages every day on his business trip?â
