Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 167

Chapter 167 Once Elisa was gone, Jasmine asked curiously, “Seren, how did you know Ms. Stone? She even came to the shop to look for you.”

Serenity told Jasmine the whole story about Elisa flagging her e–bike down and sending Elisa to York Corporation.

Jasmine replied after a pause, “Really?”

Props to Elisa for her courage and tenacity to go after the heir of the York.

“I think Ms. Stone isn‘t as unreasonable as described in the rumors. She‘s only haughty because of her upbringing. She hasn‘t lost perspective on life though. While she loves Mr. York, she said she wouldn‘t ask Mr. York out if he was taken.”

Elisa‘s pride kept her from coming in between someone else‘s relationship

Jasmine concurred , “She sounds like a great gal. We‘re not in her circle, so we wouldn‘t know her true character without engaging with her. The rumors can‘t be trusted completely. Sometimes, seeing is not believing either, let alone hearsays.”

Since Elisa held prestige in class, many who were jealous of her might spread the word that she was obnoxious,

bossy, and rude.

Elisa‘s visit did not affect Serenity whatsoever.

She kept to her routine while Jasmine started to wear Serenity down about attending Mrs. so–and–so‘s birthday party with her.

“The party will be held at the Dawsons‘ mansion. The Dawsons are neighbors with my aunt. Plus, they do business together. My aunt wouldn‘t ask me to tag along if it weren‘t because she had a good relationship with the family. Come with me, Seren. My aunt is trying to set me up with her neighbor‘s oldest son.” Jasmine vaguely remembered the Dawsons‘ son. Since she often spent time at her aunt‘s place, Jasmine had met the neighbors.

The young heir of the Dawson family was plump and mediocre at best when it came to looks. No one would do

a double–take at the man on the streets if he was not born into wealth and power.

Not everybody in higher society had a pretty face.

“Mrs. Lowe‘s taking you to fix you up for a date. Why should I come along? It‘s different this time. It‘s Mrs. Dawson‘s birthday party. I‘m not going.”
