“I’m outside now. I’m going to your store to have breakfast with you. By the way, you don’t need to get takeouts for breakfast, Seren. I bought three portions. I’ll bring them over to eat with you and Jasmine.”“Sure. Wait for me in the store then. I’ll be right there. But Nana, you don’t have to get up so early in the future. You can sleep in. I won’t be hungry.”“I’m old now and a light sleeper. I wake up as soon as the sun rises, so I’m used to it. I’m not worried about you going hungry. I just like eating with you. Food tastes especially good when it’s with you.”Serenity laughed.For the past few months, she often ate with the old lady.Old Mrs. York knew that many old stores in Wiltspoon serve delicious snacks. She would often take Serenity and Jasmine to eat all these famous and most authentic snacks in Wiltspoon.Serenity and Jasmine both felt that Old Mrs. York was definitely a glutton when she was in her youth.Now that she was old, she could not eat a lot. Furthermore
Old Mrs. York looked at her grandson, and her grandson looked at her.Her lips moved several times to say something, but she did not speak. In the end, she burst into laughter.Zachary was exasperated as he watched his nana laugh uncontrollably.Old Mrs. York grinned and patted his shoulder. Zachary had to hold his grandmother for fear that she would fall if she laughed too hard.After a while, she finally stopped laughing and said, “Zack, I was wrong about you. Serenity learned mixed martial arts, and her skill is quite good, so it’s no problem for her to handle a handful of punks.“My suggestion to you next time is when you see her in trouble, regardless if she needs help or not. Just go up and save her. In fact, it’s better if you get hurt while saving her. That way, she’ll feel guilty about it and will treat you exceptionally well.”Zachary’s expression was gloomy, and his thin lips pursed tightly.“You need to know a few tricks if you want to chase after your wife. Of cours
“Yes, sir.”Zachary’s driver and Jim got out of the car.The driver in distress was grateful for the two who got out to help him.After checking the car, Zachary’s driver said, “It’ll take several hours for your car to be repaired. We’re in a rush and can’t help you. I’ll ask some people to help you push the car to the side so you don’t block the incoming traffic. You can call a tow truck later.”The car could be moved to the side with everyone’s combined efforts.As long as the car was moved, it would not block the cars behind.With gratitude, the driver said, “Of course, then I’ll thank you in advance. Um, the young lady I’m working for has urgent business to attend to. Could you give her a ride?”Jim and the driver did not dare to agree without permission, but Jim returned to the Rolls-Royce and respectfully asked their boss. “Mr. Zachary, there’s another person in the car in front. The driver said she’s a young lady who he’s serving, and she has urgent business to attend to.
“Zachary! Zachary...”Elisa chased after Zachary’s car for a few steps and gave up.He refused to let her get into his car. Even if she lay under his wheels, he would not stop and simply send her to the afterlife.Elisa watched as his car, followed by his entourage of bodyguards, drove away.She stomped her feet.She ran here early in the morning to block his way, which she succeeded, and in return, he helped her a little. After all, his bodyguards had helped to push the car to the side of the road and prevented it from blocking other cars that were coming from behind.However, she was still upset that she was unable to ride in his car.Of course, she would not give up just like that.She would not give up before half a year.It had not been long since her public confession.Hang in there!One day, she would be able to sit in his car. She would be the only young woman who could sit in his car.Elisa, who was daydreaming, felt her mood improve.She called her butler and ask
Old Mrs. York peeked at Serenity’s stomach, which was flat and plain.Yes, her proud and awkward grandson said that he had not touched Serenity yet. The husband and wife were still pure. It was still too early for her to have a great-grandchild.Serenity disdained how cold Zachary was and could not bring herself to jump him, let alone sleep naked.As for Zachary...Old Mrs. York was worried.She suddenly had a thought. ‘Could the rumors be true? Does Zachary like men, or does he have some sort of physiological problem?‘He’s been married to Serenity for more than a month, and they live together, but he has never exercised his right as a husband.’Old Mrs. York decided to tell the cook at home to brew a nourishing soup for Zachary at noon and let Serenity send it to him to nourish his body. Maybe it would help in conceiving a great-grandchild for Old Mrs. York too.It would also help to mend the relationship between the couple.They could not keep up this cold war and live sepa
Old Mrs. York was anxious and wanted to slip away, but thought, ‘Wait, I can’t slip away. Elisa is already at the entrance. If I try to leave, I’ll be caught red-handed.‘I need to hide.’Thus, she calmly put down her cutlery and said to Serenity and Jasmine, “I’m full now. I have to go to the washroom.”With that, she got up and walked toward the washroom while saying, “When you get old, every trip to the washroom will take at least half an hour.”Serenity and Jasmine were speechless.“Serenity, are you there?”Elisa appeared just as Old Mrs. York walked away.She rushed in with a mesh bag of sea shrimps in her left hand and a similar bag of sea crabs in her right hand.“Serenity, come take them. They’re too heavy for me!”Elisa was a rich and pampered young lady. She usually had everything handed over to her on a silver platter and never did any labor, so she felt the two big bags of shrimps and crabs were heavy.When Serenity and Jasmine saw this, they rushed forward and t
“We just finished.”Jasmine quickly cleaned up the dishes, and Elisa asked out of curiosity, “There are four sets of cutlery. Is there someone else?”Jasmine said while cleaning up, “Serenity’s grandmother-in-law came over. She’s in the washroom now.”Elisa hummed and stopped asking.She was aware of Serenity’s marriage. Due to the trending news before, she even told her brother to fire John Hunt. She understood Serenity and the Hunt family’s disputes more than others, so undoubtedly she knew Serenity was married too.Not many people from the outside world knew about it.Elisa was not a nosy person, so she did not ask about Serenity’s love life.After Jasmine cleaned up the table, Serenity poured a glass of water for Elisa.“Why are you back from vacation so soon, Ms. Stone?”“It’s because I’m worried about my sweetheart, of course. I was with my parents by the beach for two days and came back to the city last night. I have something to tell you, Serenity. This morning, I went
Serenity had no knowledge that Zachary was the heir of the York family, who was also Elisa’s crush.Elisa only mentioned Mr. York and did not say Zachary’s name, so the two did not know that they were talking about the same person.“Serves him right!” Old Mrs. York snickered in the washroom. “The show is getting more and more exciting.”Old Mrs. York, who had the mindset of watching a good show, perked her ears and continued to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two girls outside.Serenity had not forgotten about Nana. After chatting with Elisa for a while, she said to her best friend, “Jasmine, go check up on Nana. She’s been in the washroom for a long time.”Jasmine hummed and turned to walk to the washroom.Sonny was sitting by the side, playing with his toys. Even if there was no adult looking after him, he would simply play in the store instead of wandering out. He was a smart boy.Elisa had thought that her ploy did not work, but after hearing Serenity’s idea, she w
