Chapter 567
“That’s what I admire the most about you, unlike some people who don’t care if others are married. They find someone they fancy and come in between the marriage of others under the pretext of finding true love. Those people disgust me the most.”
Alice was speaking from the heart.
She embraced Elisa as her in-laws would because her sister–in–law had good qualities.
Alice would not even bother if Elisa was not a decent person.
“I’m fine, Alice. Go and catch up on sleep. Tell my brother not to worry about me. It’s not like 1 can never find a man.”
“Alright. I’m heading back to my room. Do you want to go back to sleep?”
“Nah. I’ll go to spend some good time with Serenity later. That reminds me, the pastry chef made some great desserts yesterday. Is there any left? I want to bring some to Serenity and Jasmine. They have a thing for desserts.”
These girls were just like her sister–in-law.
Previously, Elisa’s family did not have a personal pastry chef as their chef could take on the dual role. Since Elisa welcomed her sister–in–law into the family, her brother had hired a pastry chef to create all kinds of sweet delicacies for her sister–in–law.
Alice said with a smile, “I thought the food was delicious too, so I told the pastry chef to bake some today. You can head downstairs and check. The pastries should be hot out of the oven. Bring a few boxes to Serenity. You can deliver the desserts to her every day if she likes them.”
Knowing that Serenity may possibly be her husband’s cousin, Alice already had a good feeling about Serenity before even meeting her.
“She likes them for sure.”
The mention of Serenity and Jasmine sparked joy in Elisa’s speech. Since the girls were foodies, it was no wonder they became best friends.
They shared the same qualities.
After changing the subject, Elisa seemed to have put Zachary’s marriage behind her. Only then, Alice was comfortable returning to her room.
Clive was waiting for his wife’s return in the bedroom.
“How’s Elisa?”
