Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 739
Audrey was silent throughout the journey to the company. No one knew what she was thinking.
Alice was a little worried that her mother-in-law would do something to Serenity because of Elisa.
After all, as a niece, Serenity’s relationship with Audrey did not run that deep. Audrey would naturally favor Elisa, her own
daughter.
When they arrived at Stone Group, Audrey walked straight into the office building while Alice deliberately trailed behind. She
called Clive.
“Clive, Mom is here. She’ll be in your office soon.”
After a moment of silence, Clive said, “All right. Don’t worry. Mom is angry, but she won’t do anything.”
She might even think that Zachary was blind.
Elisa was worthy of Zachary in every way, but of all the people Zachary fell in love with, he had to fall for Serenity.
To aggravate the situation, Serenity had become their cousin now.
If only they were not related by blood...
Clive was also stumped about what to do. Most likely, they would not let Serenity off easy. They would always feel that it was
Serenity’s existence that caused Elisa’s pursuit to fail.
“I won’t go upstairs. Mom looks really upset. I’ll wait for her in the VIP lounge on the first floor while you talk to her.”
“Got it.”
Alice hung up the phone and went to wait in the VIP lounge.
She had no idea how their conversation went but Audrey only came back down in the evening.
“Mom.”
Alice quickly walked out of the VIP lounge.

Audrey still looked upset, but her anger was not as obvious anymore. Alice was slightly relieved to see that.
“Alice, give me the car keys. I’ll go home by myself. You wait here a while longer and go back with Clive.”
“Oh, okay.”
Alice handed the car keys to her mother-in-law.
Audrey took the car keys and walked away with a tense face.
Serenity was in the dark about all these.
After she returned to Brynfield with Tania, her father-in-law called and urged his wife. to go home.
Serenity wanted Tania to stay for dinner, but the latter politely refused.
“Your father-in-law won’t eat if I don’t go back to accompany him. I’ll head home now. Ask Zack if he’s coming back for dinner. If
he’s not, you can eat whatever you want. There’s no need to save money for him.
“As wives, we need to learn how to spend money. Only then will our husbands have the motivation to earn money.”
Serenity laughed.
That depended on the husband whether he was willing to provide for his wife to spend.
If the man was someone who wanted to go Dutch in everything, it would be better to live by herself instead.
Tania left.
Serenity sent a message to ask Zachary. When she got a reply saying that he would not be back for dinner, she went to her
sister’s place instead.
Liberty was making chili sauce. As soon as Serenity came through the door, she could smell the sharp aroma of spices and
sneezed several times.
“Liberty, why does it smell so spicy?”
Liberty wore gloves, a mask, and a pair of goggles.

“There are plenty of people in Wiltspoon, and their tastes vary. Many like spicy food.”
Liberty’s hands kept moving as she spoke.
“If the chili sauce is made well, maybe there’ll be more returning customers.”
Wiltspoonians did not really fancy spicy food, but of course, there was still a handful of them who enjoyed it. The general
Wiltspoonians had a lighter palate and they liked making soups.
“Are the pickled beans ready?”
