Audrey could tell that Tania was genuinely protecting her niece. As her aunt, she didn’t say anything bad about her niece, only that her niece was still young and not as experienced as Tania. Tania didn’t like to hear that and immediately spoke up for Serenity.
Audrey was happy for her niece to have such a protective and reasonable mother-in-law. Unlike when she first married into the Stone family, where her mother-in-law didn’t like her, was dissatisfied with her, found faults everywhere, and could find stones in rice. Those days were quite sad.
If her husband hadn’t been very good to her and her father-in-law hadn’t been sensible and stood on her side, she might not have made a big splash in the Stone Group. Additionally, she got pregnant soon after marriage, and she might not have been able to make it from a daughter-in-law to a mother-in-law.
Looking back now, Audrey suspected that her husband was eager to tie her down with a child, fearing that she would not be able to stand her mother-in-law’s faults and would divorce.
Fortunately, her mother-in-law accepted her later, and she was considered to have made it in her husband’s family. Back then in the Stone family, her name was well-known, and people in the family, even the older patriarchs, were courteous to her. Peers and juniors were very respectful to her.
Audrey’s life was bitter before it became sweet.
Serenity was much luckier than her.
Tania didn’t like Serenity at first. She couldn’t accept that her most outstanding eldest son married a wife who had no father or mother and was from the countryside. But no matter how much she disliked Serenity, she never said bad words in front of Serenity, let alone sow discord.
Instead, she lived in Wildridge Manor, watching her son and daughter-in-law from a distance, keeping her distance. If they didn’t live together, there would be no conflicts. At least they could maintain superficial harmony and wouldn’t be laughed at by outsiders.
Some wives didn’t know how high the sky was and how deep the earth was. They said this and that about Serenity in front of Tania, which made Tania very angry.
Regardless of her status as the wife of the York family, she personally confronted the quarrel, so that the wives of the upper class could see clearly.

The readers' comments on the novel: Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary)
Please use the English names as it is difficult to read and connect....
I am very greatful of your hard work in translating the novel in English, is there any chance you could use the character’s name in English please, it’s hard to follow the story with Chinese names. Thanks...
Please use correct names and watch the repeating of pages....
Thank you for the story, its going on well, however the changing of names somehow makes it difficult to follow. Even learning the new ones that you have tried to match, it is extremely difficult to follow and enjoy the drama while trying to go back to rechecking who we are talking about. The title is still Married at first sight (Serenity and Zachary) but they no longer exist in the whole picture. You created a dynamic community which I am sure everyone felt they lived and travelled with. We appreciate all the effort and your insight. I am very grateful for this novel is very captivating....
Please continue using Zachary,. Serenity,Duncan, Liberty etc . You jumped 30 updates and changed names where I'm unable to follow the story and losing interest. This is a great disservice to your loyal readers....
Changing names ruins the whole story. Whoever heard of such a thing....
Please use the old names, the new names are too confusing...
