Chapter 53
Chapter 53 Elisa was picked up by her sister-inw in the end while the smashed car was towed away.
When Alice came by, Elisa even said, “Since Zachary wrecked my car, I have an excuse to cling to him.
Alice, now that I made the first move, I need to keep going. I won’t forgive myself if I don’t put in the
years to pursue Zachary.
“Alice , you’re the best. Clive only listens to you. Please talk to him for me. I just need him off my back
from my pursuit of happiness.”
Elisa was envious of her brother and sister-inw’s love story. Alice went after Clive, and it took a year
before Alice won his heart. The roles were reversed after marriage as Clive spoiled Alice crazy.
It was not the first time Alice mentioned that she would not have her happy ending if she did not bravely
go after the love of her life.
While driving, Alice uttered, “Elisa, I’m all for you pursuing your happiness, but it’s Zachary we’re
talking about. Aren’t you aware of his reputation in Wiltspoon? He’s known for keeping a distance from
women. Have you seen any young women around him?
“Besides, our family is not on good terms with the Yorks.
Your brother might not be an enemy of Zachary, but they’re rivals at the end of the day. They don’t see
eye-to -eye. I’m worried Zachary might use you as a weapon or a punching bag.” “I don’t think he’ll do
that. The Yorks hold themselves in high regard. The men of the family are famous for spoiling their
wives.”
Having witnessed the love between her brother and sister -inw, Elisa looked forward to sharing the
same intimacy with her future husband.
Among the upper crust of Wiltspoon , York’s men stood out for putting their wives above everything.
“No matter what, your brother is only doing it for your own good. We’ll save this conversation for
another day, Elisa. Mom is waiting for us at the Hermès store. Let’s get some fresh air with Mom. She’s
been feeling down because of that thing with her sister.”
Pursing her lips, Elisa replied, “Mom and her sister have been apart for so many years. God knows
how many times her sister had been through the adoption system. Her sister might have lost the
photograph too. We’re looking for a needle in a haystack here.”
“Still, we have to try.”
Elisa remained without a word.
That was Mom’s only wish. As her children, they had to
help Mom Millit,
Serenity was clueless about her rival in love as It had been a busy day at the shop. After closing the
shop at eleven at night, she rode her e-bike home.
Wiltspoon was a thriving city. Even at eleven o’clock, the streets were filled with endless human traffic.
It was a bustling scene as the public lined up by food trucks, itching for midnight snacks.
Serenity rode her bike past the food trucks. A group of young men saw her and catcalled her, but she
turned a deaf ear, refusing to give them her time of day. She hit the brakes at a red light.
By the time the traffic lights turned green, she restarted her engine and zipped past the intersection
before the bike suddenly conked out. Serenity thought she was out of battery, but her battery was still
on full bar. Why did it stop?
The bike would not start despite Serenity’s multiple attempts.
That was strange. What could be the problem?
“Is that you, Serenity? I thought your back looked familiar. For a moment there, I thought my eyes were
deceiving me.”
With a car pulling up beside Serenity, the person inside lowered his window. It was Jasmine’s cousin,
Shawn.
“Shawn.”
Serenity answered, “I don’t know what’s wrong with my bike. It suddenly stopped working, but the
battery is full.” “Hang on, Serenity. I’ll park the car by the side of the road to get out of the way.”
Shawn then drove his car to park by the curb. He got out of the car and checked on Serenity’s bike.
Shawn replied apologetically, “I don’t know much about e-bikes to know what’s wrong with it, Serenity.
How about I get your bike towed to a repair shop? I’ll drive you home.” Serenity asked, “Do you know if
there’s an electric vehicle repair shop nearby?”
