Chapter 770
Married at First Sight
âSheâs driving. Do you have something to say to Seren, Aunt Audrey? Iâll put her on.â
Liberty was about to hand the phone to her sister when Mrs. Stone uttered, âItâs okay. Tell Seren to drive safely. Tell her not to put up with any mistreatments while sheâs at her inâlaws. It doesnât matter who they are. Youâre my nieces. You deserve only the best.â
Having found out her nephewâinâlaw was Zachary, Mrs. Stone did not know how she felt about it in the last few days. She mentioned it to her son, and her son had known about it too. However, he wanted to keep it from Elisa.
Mrs. Stone did not want her daughter to know that Zacharyâs mysterious wife was Serenity either.
Everybody was dying to find out who the missus of the York family was, not knowing that she was right under their nose.
Some even got on well with the missus of the Yorks.
Jasmine, for example, was into the hottest gossip about Mr. York. She was curious about who had won his heart and even wanted to know how his missus tamed him. Unbeknownst to her, her best friend was âtheâ Mrs. York.
The Stones decided to travel for the holidays only because they did not want Elisa to find out that Serenityâs husband was Zachary.
Serenity mentioned that she would bring her husband over for a visit and introduce him to the Stones.
The way Mrs. Stone saw it, Serenity would not be able to bring Zachary along if the family was away and returned after the holidays. By then, Zachary would be back at work. It would be hard to make time since work took up a lot of Zacharyâs time.
Anyway, the Stones planned to keep it from Elisa as long as they could.
Serenity replied with a smile, âDonât worry, Aunt Audrey. I wonât put up with any malice. Besides, my inâ
laws are really nice, and I mean all of them. We get along well.
âZachary will be there too. He wonât put me in the spot.â
Mrs. Stone happily responded, âI know youâre a strong woman. You wonât take anything lying down. I can relax knowing that. Iâve never met your inâlaws, but I went and asked around. Theyâre very nice folks.â
Although it was a rivaling family, Mrs. Stone had to admit that the Yorks were good people.
It was not her daughterâs destiny to be a part of the York family.
Thinking about Elisaâs love for Zachary, Mrs. Stone sighed in her mind. Elisa was egoistic and proud.
The only man she could see as an equal was Zachary.
However, Zachary married Serenity. Serenity was not a bad choice, but she had nothing on Elisa.
Elisa was a more suitable match for Zachary.It was a pityâ¦
God knew how Elisa would react when she learned the truth. Perhaps she could accept the fact wholeheartedly if Serenity was better than her in every way.
âAunt Audrey, Iâll take Zachary to see you when youâre back from your travels.â
Mrs. Stone grinned. âAlright. That reminds me. I got you and Sonny some gifts for Christmas. Weâre about to make a move. Iâll have the butler make the delivery.â
She could send shoppingmode Apple cash to the sisters, but the girls would not accept it. Hence, she prepared wads of cash and sent the butler for the delivery just before the family went out. That way, the sisters could not return the money even if they wanted to because the Stones were already away.
The butler would also be delivering expensive gifts to Serenity and Liberty.
âAunt Audrey, weâre too old for presents. You can just give one to Sonny.â
âI donât care how old you are. Youâre still children in my eyes. If you donât want the gifts, you can dump them in the can.â
âWeâll accept the gifts, Aunt Audrey.â
How could they throw away gifts from their aunt?
The gifts were a nice gesture from Aunt Audrey.
After the call, Mrs. Stone handed over the presents to the butler to deliver to Brynfield. Liberty might still be staying with Serenity.
