Chapter 651
Serenity said with a smile, “My husband would text me when he has the time. Well, we’re in touch every time. Our marriage is at
a much better place now.”
She even kept her argument with Zachary from her sister, much less her aunt’s family. Serenity did not want to worry her aunt.
“Relationships take time to build. You’ve been married for three months now. It’s only normal for your marriage to get better.”
Elisa leaned in and whispered nosily, “How are things going on with Josh and Jasmine? I’m dying to find out.”
Josh was Zachary’s right–hand man.
He also came from a family that specialized in intelligence.
Elisa could not believe Jasmine had gone on a blind date with Josh.
She believed she could earn a lump sum for selling this information to the press but of course, Elisa was not short of money. She
was friends with Jasmine too and she was not the kind of person who would do anything to betray her friends.
Elisa would keep the secret about them until Josh was ready for the world to know. The last thing Elisa would want was for the
media to be all over Jasmine and disrupt her peace.
After Serenity replied to Zachary through text message, she chuckled and said, “Didn’t my aunt say she wanted to have a party
tomorrow night? Get Alice to send Jasmine an invitation and get your brother to send Mr. Bucham an invitation, so they both
could attend the party. You can see how things are going between them then.”
With her eyes lighting up, Elisa giggled. “You got it all thought out for sure. I wanted to invite Jasmine anyway since she’s your
best friend and my new friend. I don’t feel right leaving her out of the party.
“But Josh might not come.”
He was the executive assistant of York Corporation after all.
Serenity smiled. “Tell your brother to let Mr. Bucham know that Ms. Sox will be attending. I think that should be enough reason
for him to attend the party. My aunt organized the family event to introduce me and my sister to everyone. It’s not business
related. Mr. Bucham can attend as a member of the Bucham family.“
Elisa believed Serenity made a great suggestion.
She said to her brother and sister–in–law, “Clive, send the Buchams a few invitations and make sure Josh gets one. Alice,
please help me deliver an invitation to Jasmine. Jasmine is a good friend of mine and Serenity’s.”
Elisa was going to take her mom along with Serenity and her sister shopping this afternoon.
As Alice and Clive were the heads of the household, Elisa needed to let them in on it.
Clive and his wife agreed to Elisa’s request.
Meanwhile, Zachary found out through the text message that Serenity was at the Stones‘ residence for a
meal.
Zachary: [Enjoy your meal. It’s a shame I’m not there to help you peel the shrimps.]
Serenity: [I usually eat the shrimp together with the shell.]
Zachary: [... Tiny lazy bug.]
Serenity: [How am I tiny?]
Zachary grinned without a word.
Serenity peevishly retorted and added: [You’re tiny! You have a tiny mind and heart. Yo’re such a petty guy
The couple exchanged messages for a while before Serenity ended the conversation.
[I got to eat now. We’ll chat when we have time. Don’t forget to have your meals on time. Don’t ruin your health. I’m not going to
nurse you back to health.]
Zachary replied with an emoji to acknowledge the message.
After the meal, Mrs. Stone and her daughter went upstairs to get dolled up.
Alice said to the Hunt sisters, “I’ll take you out for a walk, Serenity, Liberty. You can get familiar with the place.”
“Sonny wants to take his nap, so I’ll have to pass on that. Go on with Seren.”
Liberty was carrying her son for an afternoon, not feeling in the mood for a stroll.
It suited Alice fine that Liberty was not coming along.
Several minutes later, Alice affectionately held Serenity’s arm as they strolled and chatted.
Since Alice and Serenity were great talkers, the conversation kept going.
“Seren, I heard from Elisa that you got married to your husband at first sight. Why the rush to get married?”
