Serenity was aware of Elisa’s deep affection for Mr. York and did not want to linger on this topic lest Elisa felt upset. Thus, she quickly changed the subject.As they chatted, Elisa talked about what she was up to now. She said, “My brother was worried that I’d think of Mr. York when I’m bored and become upset, so he gave me a task. He wants me to find my aunt.”“Your aunt?”Serenity did not know anything about the Stone family. She only knew that they were a family second only to the Yorks.The only Stone family member she knew was Elisa.“Speaking of which, my mom’s story was quite similar to your sister and you. My grandparents died early too, and no relatives were willing to take my mom and her sister in. In the end, they were sent to an orphanage where they stayed for a while. My aunt was still young, but she was cute, so she got adopted by a rich couple who weren’t able to have a child even after many years of marriage.“My mom was left in the orphanage, but she had alway

Elisa said gratefully, “Serenity, if you help us find my aunt, you’ll be our family’s benefactor. We won’t treat you badly.”“We’re friends, so don’t be such a stranger. I’m also thinking of my mom. If she were still alive, my sister and I would also do our best to help her find her family.”Serenity’s mother passed away more than ten years ago, so she did not have a deep impression of her mother. Fortunately, her sister looked like her mother, so she could remember her late mother by looking at her sister.“I won’t disturb your date with your husband. Have fun and tell me when’s the wedding. I’ll be your bridesmaid,” Elisa teased Serenity a little and ended the call.“Was it Ms. Stone again?” Zachary asked nonchalantly.“Yes. She wanted to come over to meet us, but she changed her mind when she heard that I was with you.”Zachary snorted coldly in his heart. ‘Good!’“Elisa is really a good girl, but your boss...” Thinking of Mr. York wearing a wedding ring, Serenity sighed. “I

Serenity was not dumb.Grandma May and Mrs. Lane walked away to create an opportunity for the couple to be alone.It was rare that Zachary did not act cold and reject her, so she enjoyed the taste of dating.The couple held hands and strolled around the Oriental garden. Serenity especially liked this garden style with its antique colors and fragrance.“Zachary.”“Yeah?”Zachary’s mind was not on the scenery. He kept stealing glances at the woman beside him.When he heard Serenity call him, he stopped to look at her again with a straight face, as if he had been looking ahead the whole time instead of peeking at her.“You work in York Corporation, so you should know what properties are under your company, right? How many resorts like this one did your boss invest in?”Zachary thought about it and said, “Our company has branches in all major cities. We invest and operate in all kinds of industries, but only in two vacation resorts like this were invested in and built. That’s beca

Time flew by when having fun.The day was over in the blink of an eye.Serenity strolled all day, arrived home, took a shower, and fell asleep.Grandma May saw Serenity going back to her room and thought of repeating her trick. Unexpectedly, when she entered Serenity’s room, the latter was already sleeping soundly, leaving the old woman with no chance to play her acting skills.After leaving Serenity’s room, she came out to see her grandson sitting on the sofa watching TV. Even though her heart was disappointed, she could not help but get angry.She walked over and snatched the TV remote control from Zachary’s hand. “Have you forgotten what to say and do after coming home?”Zachary looked at his grandmother and said innocently, “We’re already back. What do I have to say or do?”He made a lot of progress today.He held Serenity’s hand for the whole day.Serenity also talked to him about anything now. Her trust in him was growing.Grandma May was speechless.“Nana, you must be

Alas, Zachary only thought about it and did not act on it. His pride stopped him from doing something that sneaky.Thus, he tossed and turned, and finally got taken away by the sandman.Meanwhile, in an apartment, Hank was fumbling around the bedside table for a pack of cigarettes. He then pulled out a stick, and was just about to light it up when the woman next to him reached over. “Give me one too.”Hank handed the cigarette to Jessica and helped her light it.“Just smoke once in a while.”Hank was not a heavy smoker and only smoked when he talked business with clients. Usually, he did not smoke unless he had something on his mind.Liberty did not like men who smoked all the time because she felt their breath stink.Jessica smoked, but she pretended to be virtuous and never smoked in front of Hank. However, Hank and her had gone all the way, and he was also preparing to divorce Liberty for her sake.Thus, Jessica did not think it was necessary to hide it anymore. Hank would f
