Chapter 998
“Sorry for imposing, Mr. Dowling.1 After all, Mrs. Dowling did not send her an invitation.
She came here because her aunt brought her.
Mrs. Dowling smiled.
“Nonsense, you’re not imposing.
It’s our honor to have you here, Mrs. York.” Serenity was holding the birthday gift that Audrey had
prepared for Maya.
She handed the gift to Audrey, who took it and then passed it to Maya.
She said with a smile, “Happy birthday, Ms.
Dowling.” Enter title… Mrs. Dowling quickly said, “Just call her Maya, Mrs. Stone.
We’re very happy that you came to Maya’s birthday party.
You didn’t have to get her a gift.” She gestured for her daughter to ept the present.
The gift was a set of jewelry.
Maya took the birthday present and thanked Audrey.
Since Audrey only brought her daughter and niece and did not bring her husband, Mr. Dowling asked
his wife to apany them with her two daughters while he went to entertain the other guests.
Mrs. Dowling warmly weed Audrey and the two cousins into the house.
As they walked, everyone saw how respect was mixed with Mrs. Dowling’s enthusiasm.
In fact, it seemed that Mrs. Dowling was especially respectful to a young woman standing beside
Audrey.
Many people said that Serenity was not worthy of Zachary, but Mrs. Dowling thought differently.
Whether or not Serenity was worthy of Zachary, she was already Zachary’s legal wife and the missus
of the York family.
Zachary only exposed Serenity’s identity as his wife because he doted on her.

Serenity was able to be Zachary’s beloved woman, so her status as Mrs. York was firm as a
mountain.
The elders of the York family had always been known for being open- minded.
When they heard that Serenity was chosen by Old Mrs. York, no one would dare disrespect Serenity
even if she was a beggar.
Therefore, Mrs. Dowling did not dare to underestimate Serenity or disrespect her.
Serenity was the missus of the York family and was the wife of the future head of the family.
She was the most respectable woman in Wiltspoon.
Mrs. Dowling did not try to build a friendship with Serenity since they had an age gap.
She only hoped that she could make a favorable impression in front of Serenity.
Furthermore, it was good for her eldest daughter that Serenity showed up for her birthday banquet.
The prestige the Dowlings earned would be helpful for them for a long time.
‘There are two youngdies beside Mrs. Stone.
One of them is Ms.
Stone, but who’s the other one? Mrs. Dowling is very respectful to her.” “I’m not sure.
I’ve never seen her before.” “Me neither.
Could she be Mrs. Stone’s daughter-inw?” “We’ve all seen her daughter-inw before.
Oh, could she be her second daughter-inw?” The people spected about Serenity’s identity and
exchanged whispers.
Just then, two women came out of the house.
Someone went over and asked the older woman, “Mrs. Newman, do you know who that woman beside
Mrs. Stone is? Did you hear Mrs. Dowling introduce the identity of that woman when you were inside
the house?” Everyone knew everyone else in this circle, so they all wanted to know who Serenity was
since she was a new face.
Mrs. Newman said indifferently, “She’s just a country bumpkin.
Does she really think she can climb the socialdder and join the elites?” The crowd was silent.
Mrs. Newman’s youngest daughter answered in a disdainful tone, “She’s Serenity Hunt.” The others
eximed, ‘The missus of the York family!” Mrs. Newman still looked indifferent, but there was a hint of
disdain in her tone.
“Like I said, she’s just a country bumpkin who somehow got lucky enough to marry into the York family.
Mr. York married her without even hosting a wedding banquet.
Who knows what tricks she yed to get her way?” The people around only felt that Mrs. Newman was
being jealous.
