Chapter 1653


    “This house is too quiet. Get a few people to watch the house.” During her walk, Mrs. Stone


    comined that her daughter’s house was too quiet.


    The Stones‘ housekeeper would arrange for someone to clean the vi, but no one lived there.


    Elisa enjoyed being alone and free without being controlled by anyone.


    “I think this is great.”


    Elisa would like to keep to the status quo.


    Mrs. Stone shot a nce at her daughter. She did not want to keep arguing over the topic with her.


    “I’m attending a charity g tonight. Come with me.”


    “Mom, you know I’ve always disliked attending gs. You can get Seren or Liberty to apany you


    there.”


    Mrs. Stone could not help but poke Elisa’s head. “You’re now a businesswoman. It’s important to


    socialize. If you don’t socialize, how are you going to do business? If you’re able to do business in


    Wiltspoon, it’s all because of your brother’s reputation. Other people are willing to do it for the sake of


    our family’s status.


    “Thankfully, the vegetables on your farm aren’t too bad. At least no one criticized it. Once you leave


    Wiltspoon and move to other cities, who else will know who you are?


    “I’m taking you to the g for the sake of your future. Seren doesn’t like this kind of asion too, but


    she’s responsible, self–motivated, and willing to learn to blend in with the people. She’s different from


    before. Now, she’s a lot more confident.


    “What’s more, Zachary has to attend the charity g. Seren will definitely go with him, so how can she


    apany me? You’re my daughter.”


    Sometimes, Mrs. Stone could not do anything to her daughter. It was her family that pampered her


    daughter this way.


    “What about Liberty? You can bring her along.”


    “Don’t you know her temperament? Even Seren can’t persuade her to attend, much less me. Liberty


    needs to look after Sonny at night.”


    Elisa pursed her lips andpromised. “Fine. I’ll apany you to the g. How much money and


    how many things is Stone Group going to donate?”


    “You’ll know tonight.”


    The prominent families in Wiltspoon would attend important charity gs and donate things; regardless


    of whether they did it out of kindness or for the sake of their reputation.


    It would be Serenity’s first time apanying Zachary to attend this kind of event. The two of them


    were representatives of the Yorks.


    Mrs. Stone could not possibly get Serenity to keep herpany.


    “Mom, will Mr. Reading attend?” Elisa suddenly asked.


    She was worried that Mrs. Stone would arrange for her to get along with Andrew.


    “How would I know? I can’t read Mr. Reading’s mind.”


    Elisa stuck out her tongue yfully. Then, she stopped speaking.


    Mrs. Stone had made peace with Elisa. Now that Mrs. Stone came to meet Elisa personally, Elisa’s


    anger at being kicked out of Mrs. Stone’s car subsided.

    As Serenity was going to apany Zachary to attend the charity g, she nned to close her


    bookstore in the afternoon and send Sonny to Liberty’s ce. That was when Jasmine came to the


    store.


    Just as Serenity was about to close the store, Jasmine said, “Seren, I’ll watch the store. You can do


    whatever you want. I felt bored staying at home. I could finally convince Josh to let me out.”


    While speaking, Jasmine walked into the store and ced her bag on the counter. She added, “I’ll


    watch the store. I’d rather read novels in the store than lie at home like a pig. I sleep and eat at home,


    which makes me feel like I’m living the life of a pig.”
