Chapter 505
Chapter 505 “Is Shawn gone?”
Zachary had not forgotten about his love rival.
“I didn‘t see him when I came back. Are you still jealous?”
Zachary fell silent for a while before replying, “Well, you said that‘s how I am. I guess jealousy might
be a habit of mine.”
Josh and Grandma May would be throwing shade at him if they were around.
Serenity chuckled. “I should make you eat your greens every day then.”
Since he enjoyed turning green with envy, she might as well serve up all the greens he could eat.
“I love to eat whatever you make me.”
“Zachary, you sure have honeyed lips. What‘s up with all the sweet talk recently?”
Zachary twitched by the corner of his lips. Nana oftenined about hisck of sweet nothings to
Serenity. Now that he had given it a go, Serenity fussed about his honeyed lips. She probably did not
like sweet talk.
“I don‘t want to take up more of your time.”

“Okay.”
Serenity was the first to end the call.
Zachary moved the phone away from his ear and stared at the mobile screen for a bit while murmuring
under his breath, “She didn‘t even say she misses me.”
Putting down his phone, Zachary quickly got his act together and threw himself into his busy work
Serenity finished the hot cocoa and washed the instion cup clean. She then took out some fruits
from the fridge and gave them a good wash before cing them on a fruit tter. She carried the fruit
tter out.
Mrs. Stone and her daughter were sitting at the cash register.
“Mrs. Stone.”
Serenity put the fruit tter in front of Mrs. Stone. “Have some, Mrs. Stone.”
““Thank you.”
Mrs. Stone expressed her gratitude. With Serenity sitting down, Mrs. Stone did not beat
around the bush and went straight to the point. “Serenity, you must know why I’m here today. I was
separated from my sister at eight years old. It has been fifty years, and in these fifty years, my sister
has always been on my mind.
“I worried whether she was doing fine at the adoptive parents‘ ce. I worried she would forget about
me. After she was adopted, I often asked the director about her, but it was a shame I didn‘t hear
anything back.
“Once I had grown up and had the means, I tried many ways to track down my sister. It wasn’t easy
before, but with the boom of the inte, I thought it would make things easier. Still, my hopes were
met with disappointment after disappointment.”
Elisa had ryed these details to Serenity before.
“After I saw your sister and Sonny, my intuition told me that you’re my sister‘s daughters. Sonny looks
very much like my sister when she was a child. I also saw your sister‘s wedding photo at her ce. She
takes after my sister.
“I was thinking.. Could youe with me to do a DNA test?”
Seeing that Serenity did not say yes immediately, Mrs. Stone eagerly added, “I can ept whatever
the result may be.”
Elisa chimed in, “Serenity, you could give us a few strands of your hair if you don‘t have time to go with
us. We can use your hair to do the DNA test without you being there.”
of course, it would be best if Serenity was willing to go with them and do a blood test at the testing
center.
“Why don‘t you go with my mom if you‘re worried no one will watch your shop? I‘ll stay and look after
things here.”
Serenity waited until the mother and daughter were finished before responding, “Hang on, Mrs. Stone,
Elisa. I‘m going to give my sister a call for a talk. I‘ve told Elisa the circumstances around my mom. I‘m
touched that you‘ve never given up the search for your sister, but…”
Her mother had been dead for fifteen years. The oue would be hard for Mrs. Stone to swallow
Mrs. Stone teared up. She had been feeling down the whole day yesterday. The mention that her sister
had probably left the world for fifteen years made her choke up. She could not get a word out.
