Chapter 930
Elisa continued to eat. Seemingly, she was indifferent toward Zachary’s arrival.
At that moment, her mother’s eyes were fixed on her. She looked up and said to her mother, “Mom, why are you staring at me? Your nephew–in–law is here, not your son–in -law. Your son–in–law isn’t found yet, so you still need to support me for several more years.”
“If you don’t want to get married, I can support you forever.”
“Please. I’m 27 this year. If I round it up, I’ll already be 30. My concern is that you’re not worried about it. You might act like Jasmine’s mother where you can’t wait to kick me out of the house if there’s a man pursuing me.”
That was how Mrs. Sox treated Jasmine.
Of course, Josh was outstanding and had a glib tongue. He managed to persuade the Soxes to take his side. The Soxes nearly made Josh marry Jasmine.
“Mom, since you’re keen on meeting your nephew–in–law, hurry up and let him in. Now that we’ve just started eating, you can ask him to join us. If you’re not, then I’ll drive him away. If he’s willing to acknowledge me as his cousin–in–law, I’ll speak up for him.”
Serenity and Mrs. Stone were speechless.
At last, Serenity was the one going out.
As it was Zachary’s first time entering the Stones‘ house, he kept a low profile. He only brought Jim along rather than a group of bodyguards.
While waiting, he got out of the car and stood at the gate of the villa.
After a maid went in to inform the Stones, none of them came out. Even so, he did not show a trace of annoyance.
Jim and the chauffeur stood behind Zachary, helping him to hold the gifts he had bought.
