Chapter 1638
Mrs. Stone laughed and said, “This is good news. She got lucky right after her wedding.”
“The entire Bucham family is excited. Mr. Bucham is super nervous. He’s even treating Jasmine like a national
treasure.”
Mrs. Stone smiled. “That’s natural. Josh is the first to marry in his generation, so the baby in Jasmine’s belly will be
the first grandchild. It’s a given that the Buchams will treat this seriously ”
The first child always brought a lot of anticipation and priority.
“How’s Seren?” Mrs. Stone thought about her niece, who was not pregnant yet. Jasmine had gotten pregnant
during her honeymoon. Mrs. Stone was worried her niece would be upset
Elisa recalled Serenity’s reaction. She said, “She looked normal. You don’t have to worry about her, Mom. She has
an open mind now and is going with the flow. She’s no longer in a rush to get pregnant.
“Besides, we’re so busy. She doesn’t have the time and effort to think about having a child.”
In the past, Serenity only had to watch over Elisa and Jasmine’s bookstore. Getting pregnant was always on her
mind because she had too much time.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was right that staying home and doing nothing would make someone overthink. It would be best to get something
to do to distract oneself and even earn some money.
Women could still earn money after marriage. It would also give them some confidence to face
their in–laws.
Elisa came to that conclusion through Liberty’s marriage.
No matter how much money a man earned, it was best that women had financial independence and never believed
men when they said they would take care of them. Men would get tired of it
after some time.
Every time a woman asked a man for money, the man would go from being willing to nagging. rolling their eyes,
and then scolding. In the end, they would refuse to give the money…
Of course, not all men would be like Hank.
Kind people still occupied a larger portion of the world’s population.
“You’re together with Seren almost every day. If you notice she has something on her mind, try to
talk to her more.”
“I know. Don’t worry, Mom. Seren is my sister. I care for her more than anyone and want her to be happy too. If
Zachary dares mistreat her, I’ll even go to his place to pick a fight.”
“You’ll pick a fight?”
Mrs. Stone’s tone became stern.
Elisa quickly rephrased her words. “I’ll go to his place and demand justice for Serenity. I won’t use
fists. Mm, I’m an elegant lady. I’ll use words and not my fists.”
my
Well, she could still use her feet and vent her anger by kicking Zachary several times.
“Are you still at the Buchams‘ house now?” Mrs. Stone did not know what to do with her daughter. She knew what
was going on in her daughter’s mind.
Other people used their mouths and not fists while her daughter would use her fists instead of words whenever
possible. Otherwise, why would her reputation in Wiltspoon be so terrible?
“I just left their house. What’s the matter, Mom?”
“Come to our family’s hotel now. I invited Mr. Reading over for a meal. You should come over and eat with us too.
He helped me so many times. As my children, you guys can treat Mr. Reading to a meal to repay his kindness in my
stead.“.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmElisa said, “Mom, Mr. Reading had refused the last time I treated him to a meal. He said it was a small matter and
that we didn’t have to be so polite about it.”
“Mr. Reading helped me twice again recently. I called him personally to treat him to a meal. He agreed to it. Come
over quickly. He’ll be here soon.”
Elisa asked, “Is it just you and me?”
“It’ll be the three of us after Mr. Reading comes.”
“Are Dad, Clive, and the others not coming?”
Elisa belatedly realized that her mother seemed to want her to interact with Mr. Reading more.
Did Remy’s courting make Mom anxious that she was getting a man for her?
After seeing through her mother’s plans, Elisa did not know whether to laugh or cry.
“Your dad’s going out to meet a friend later in the evening. Clive has a business engagement, while Anthony never
comes home unless the sky is falling. Who can I count on? You’re my precious baby daughter. I can only count on
you.”
Elisa was speechless.
If so, she had to accompany her mother to have a meal with Mr. Reading. Otherwise, she would not be her
mother’s precious baby anymore.
