Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 1285
Serenity gave it a thought before replying, “I don’t take on a lot of stress. My in–laws are not pressuring me either. Nana only
talked about having a great–granddaughter every once in a while. Zachary said he’s taking me on a trip to Annenburg once he’s
done with his work. We’re going to visit Mr. Young–Johnson.”
Zachary believed Serenity did not have many friends, so he was trying to get her and Ben’s wife, Jane, together.
Since Remy was part of the Johnson family, and he was in love with Elisa, Serenity could befriend. Jane and get an
understanding of the Johnson family for Elisa. At least, she could check out if the Johnsons were as nice as the public put it out
to be.
The way Serenity saw it, Elisa and Remy got along well. They looked good together. Serenity would stand on Elisa’s corner and
convince Aunt Audrey if the Johnsons proved to be a good family and if Elisa developed feelings for Remy too.
Sure, Remy was hailed from Annenburg, but he had bought a house next to the Stones and oversaw FC & Co.’s businesses in
Wiltspoon. He was stationed in Wiltspoon. Elisa would still be living in Wiltspoon if she married Remy. In fact, she would live next
door to her family.
Nevertheless, it was too soon to talk about this. Remy had not even professed his feelings to Elisa, and Elisa never revealed
what she thought about Remy.
“Okay. You should travel and get some fresh air. The child will come when you’re feeling good. I guess Zachary is not in a rush
since your in–laws aren’t pressuring you to start a family. Don’t obsess about getting pregnant.
“You can go for a physical to see what’s the cause if you can’t get pregnant after trying for two years. S–Sometimes...”
Mrs. Stone did not know how to put it.
Serenity looked at her, wanting her aunt to carry on.
Since nothing was private between them girls, Mrs. Stone whispered, “Sometimes, frequent sex can affect your chances of
conceiving.”
Serenity was lost for words.

Having guessed the answer by the look on Serenity’s face, Mrs. Stone said with a smile, “You’re still in your honeymoon period.
It’s normal, but you can’t always let Zachary have his way. You need to prioritize your health.”
“I will, Aunt Audrey. He’s not the kind who only cares about his own pleasure.”
She should go home and have a talk with Zachary. He did not have to slave away at the office during the day and plow away
during the night. The constant activity was not helping with putting a bun in the oven.
“Zachary is good to you, so I don’t have to worry much. I’m concerned about your sister. Does Duncan have a thing for your
sister? He’s great with Sonny and is always helping your sister.”
“Mr. Lewis said he simply took a shine to Sonny. My sister isn’t interested in Mr. Lewis that way.”
Not only did Mrs. Stone get Duncan’s impression of Liberty, but Serenity and Zachary had the same idea too. Still, Duncan did
not admit to it. He insisted that he was only fond of the boy.
It was true that Liberty did not have that kind of feeling for Duncan.
Mrs. Stone sat in silence for a while before giving her two cents. “I appreciate a young talent like Duncan, but Mrs. Lewis won’t
win mother–in–law of the year for sure. She doesn’t care for your sister’s upbringing. It’s fine if they’re just friends, but if...”
She left her sentence hanging.
“Don’t worry, Aunt Audrey. It won’t be easy for my sister to fall in love again.”
Serenity hoped her sister could find her second chance at love and be happier than Hank. The failure of her marriage was quite
a blow to Liberty. Serenity could not forget her sister weeping when she first decided to go down the divorce route.
Liberty locked her heart away, refusing to let anybody in.
“Sigh. I guess we can only let it be.”
Mrs. Stone knew that there was no point talking about it or preventing it.
“Have your nap, Aunt Audrey. I’m going back to the shop.”
“Sure,” Mrs. Stone said before urging her to pay attention to her safety on the road.
