Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2014

The current matriarch of the Fisher family was seventy years old. When her older sister gave birth to her first child, Madam Fisher had just come of age and was eighteen. If Mrs. Stone were Madam Fisher’s niece, she would be fifty-two.

However, Serenity remembered her aunt was older than that.

Aunt Audrey gained her father-in-law’s favor and her husband’s love after she started working at Stone Group. Subsequently, she got married and had children. Her eldest son, Clive, was already thirty-two years old. If she was indeed the eldest daughter of the Fisher family’s previous matriarch, it meant she had given birth to her son when she was merely twenty years old.

Although people had gotten married early forty or fifty years back, Serenity still found giving birth to a child at twenty years old slightly too young.

“Aunt Audrey, the eldest niece of the Fisher family’s matriarch should be fifty-two years old this year. This doesn’t match your age.”

Mrs. Stone said, “My current age is fake. It’s older than my real age by eight years. In the past, many people would lie about their age when registering for an identification card. It was so they could come of age earlier to work and earn money.”

Serenity and Elisa were speechless.

“Mom, you lied about being eight years older!”

As a daughter, Elisa did not even know her mother’s actual age.

Mrs. Stone said, “Most people only use identification cards to calculate one’s age. If Serenity didn’t mention this, I wouldn’t have revealed it.”

She had been working since she was a teenager.

She was not even twenty years old when she gave birth to Clive.

During that time, many women gave birth when they were seventeen or eighteen years old. Her giving birth at her age was also considered slightly late.
