Chapter 506


    With tears running down Mrs. Stone’s face, Serenity handed her a tissue and said apologetically, “I’m


    sorry, Mrs. Stone.”


    “Serenity.”


    Mrs. Stone held her hands, choking in sobs. “I’m sorry about your childhood. I didn’t find quick enough.


    Maybe your mom wouldn’t have died if I tracked you down sooner.”


    you


    Had her sister been located sooner, Mrs. Stone would have brought her to live in the city. Then, her


    sister would never have lost her life, together with her husband, in a tragic car ident in the little


    town.


    Although the DNA test had not been done, Serenity felt a lump in her throat and her eyes welling up


    after listening to what Mrs. Stone had to say.


    It would be great if her mom was still alive.

    “Stop crying, Mom. Dad told me to keep an eye on you and not to let you cry. You had been crying all


    day yesterday.”


    Elisa took the tissue from Serenity and patted her mother’s tears dry while consoling her, ” Mom, you


    can take the DNA test with Serenity. If ites back positive, at least you still have Serenity and


    Liberty.


    Mrs. Stone wiped away her tears. “I can’t stop myself from getting emotional.”


    Back then, Mrs. Stone and her sister lost both their parents at a young age too. Without the means to


    raise her sister, Mrs. Stone had to be apart from her sister.


    The separation was for fifty long years. Now that Mrs. Stone finally got word about it, it turned out her


    sister was long gone.


    Despite being known as the strong and tough superwoman, Mrs. Stone was beyond


    heartbroken.


    She resented the unfairness of the world.


    It took the two girls quite an effort to pacify Mrs. Stone before Serenity had the chance to call Liberty.


    After getting her sister’s opinion, Serenity agreed to do the DNA test with Mrs. Stone.


    “I’ll watch the shop for you,” Elisa volunteered.


    Serenity grabbed the car keys and walked around the cash register, uttering, “I’ll close the shop. Let me


    buy you lunchter.”


    With her craftworking to mind, Serenity made her way back and grabbed a few crafts to give to


    Mrs. Stone. “Mrs. Stone, I made these myself. The little trinkets aren’t worth much, but they’re my


    handicrafts. These are for you.‘


    Mrs. Stones took the crafts andplimented her, “Your handicrafts are beautiful. I love


    them.”


    that’s not fair, Serenity. You only gave me a maneki–neko while my mom got a few. They‘re prettier


    than my maneki–neko.”


    Mrs. Stone nagged, “You can ce an order on Serenity‘s online shop if you want more.”


    Serenity said with a smile, “Let me know what you want. I‘ll make a few to your preference.”


    Elisa‘s maneki–neko was supposed to be for Zachary, but Serenity gave it to Elisa instead. Zachary


    threw a tantrum because of that too.


    “I need to go back and think about it. I‘ll let you know once I get an idea. I‘ll order through your website


    and boost your sales.”


    These little knick–knacks were not worth much money, but they were exquisite. Elisa was a big fan and


    had the money to buy them. She would order from Serenity so long as thetter could make it.


    “Thank you in advance. I owe it to you for rmending my business all around.”


    Serenity took the mother and daughter out before closing up the shop.


    “Elisa, I‘ll ride in Serenity‘s car.”


    Mrs. Stone wanted to know more about her sister, so she chose to ride with Serenity to the DNA testing


    center.


    “Look at my mom, Serenity. She‘s picking you over me before the test result is even out.”


    Serenity burst intoughter. “Mrs. Stone will always love you the most.” Elisa was well–loved by the


    Stone family.
