Chapter 738
Married at First Sight
Tania rarely went out shopping. If she needed something, she would tell the brand to make a delivery straight to her home. However, the one time she came out today, she was seen by Audrey.
Zachary could fool Serenity, but he could not fool Audrey.
Serenity was still in the dark about these things and laughed when she heard Audreyâs words. âCould you give me a moment? Iâm with my mother-in-law now. Iâm sending her home first.â
Audrey said, âYou can ask your mother-in-law to join us since we havenât met yet. Letâs get acquainted and have a meal together.â
âIâll ask what she thinks.â
Serenity also felt that it was time to let her aunt and mother-in-law meet. The elder in her family who treated Serenity and her sister the best was their aunt.
Tania kept an ear out for Serenity and her auntâs conversation. Before Serenity could ask, she said, âSeren, itâs been a while since I shopped and we had a long day shopping today. My feet are sore from walking. I donât want to stroll anymore. Send my apologies to your aunt. Weâll get together for a meal some other day when weâre free.â
Since Tania did not want to walk around anymore, Serenity apologized and said, â Aunt Audrey, my mother-in-law said sheâs tired out from shopping, so sheâll pass on the invite and we shall have a meal together another time. Are Elisa and Alice not around to accompany you?â
Even if they were not around, Darrell was retired and at home. He could also accompany her.
âThatâs fine, we can meet another day. You send your mother-in-law home first. Ask your husband if heâs free in the evening, and call your sister to bring Sonny over to my place for dinner today. I havenât met your husband either. By the way, whatâs his name?â
âZachary York. He most likely wonât be available. I asked him before, and he said heâll be on holiday soon. Heâll only be free to visit you after New Year.â
Audrey hummed again and reminded Serenity to drive carefully before hanging up the phone.
âZachary York. Zachary York!â
Audrey gritted her teeth. Alice looked at her mother-in-lawâs dark expression and asked carefully, âMom, maybe they just share the same name?â
âSerenity might think that they just share the same name, but do you believe that as well? How can it be so coincidental? The eldest young master of the wealthy Yorkâs name is Zachary York. Young people donât know his name, but Iâm old enough to know.
âElisa never got the chance to see Serenityâs husband. I think itâs because heâs deliberately avoiding her.â
Audrey felt both admiration and resentment for Zachary. Her baby daughter was the best in her eyes and was more than worthy of Zachary. However, Zachary did not even spare Elisa a glance, causing her to be trapped in love for many years.
Zachary turned his nose up at her daughter but married her niece instead. Audrey did not know how to describe her current feelings.
Leaving aside her daughterâs infatuation with Zachary, she was worried about her niece marrying him.
She was afraid that Serenity could not integrate herself into Zacharyâs circle.
No matter how good, low-key, and easy-going the York family was, it could not change the fact that they were the richest family in Wiltspoon. The education they had received, the society they were involved in, and the friends they had made were all things Serenity had never encountered.
Serenityâs and Zacharyâs backgrounds were completely mismatched. Although their relationship had been improving and love might help them temporarily ignore a lot of practical issues, would Zachary still be able to live an ordinary life as a couple with Serenity once that passion burns out in the future?
That said, Serenity most likely did not know that Zachary was the head of the York family. Otherwise, she would not have taught Elisa how to pursue him.
Alice did not dare say anything. Her mother-in-law was incredibly furious at the moment.
âGo to the company, Alice.â
Audrey was livid when she found out that her nephew-in-law was Zachary, but she did not impulsively tell her daughter.
She decided to go to the office to discuss it with her eldest son.
âNow? Iâm not sure if Clive is free.â
Alice spoke as she put the car in motion.
Audrey said with a sullen face, âEven if heâs not free, heâll make time to see me if I go over.â
Alice knew better than to say more and drove the car in silence.
