Tania also turned to look at Serenity, who now already had her back to them. “Was she smiling at us? I
don’t know her.”
“Oh, maybe it was just my imagination, and it wasn’t us who she was smiling at.”
Tania’s friend did not think much about it.
She turned around again and saw that Serenity had already walked away. She said with a smile, “I
must’ve really gotten the wrong idea.
“That girl was quite pretty and bore a good mien. I couldn’t tell which family she’s from, so I thought she
was someone you knew.” The friend teased Tania, “All the ladies in Wiltspoon will smile at you when
they see you.
“)
Tania had three sons. The most famous one was her eldest, who was the head of York Corporation. In
the York family, he was the most important person
after Old Mrs. York.
All the men in the York family were extraordinary. Excluding the youngest two, one of whom was still
in high school while the other had just reached adulthood and was not suitable for marriage, the other
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtseven in their generation were all of marriageable age.
The York family was the richest in Wiltspoon. They were true nobility.
Every woman wanted to marry into the York family and become one of them Mrs. Yorks.
Therefore, Tania and her two sisters–in–law were the most popular noblewomen in high society. All the
families with daughters of marriageable age tried their best to please Tania and her two sisters in–laws,
hoping to become in–laws with them.
Tania laughed softly. “There’s no point smiling at me. Our family is open–minded, so when it comes to
our children’s marriage, we can only offer advice. We won’t make the decision for them. As
long as the woman’s character is good, we will agree to whoever they like.”
She did not like her eldest daughter–in–law, Serenity, but she knew Serenity had a good character.
Since her eldest son agreed to marry Serenity, as a mother, she would not nag her son even if she did
not like Serenity.
She did not complain about her son’s marriage to her mother–in–law either. She did not even
badmouth Serenity, so how would she comment anything about her mother–in–law, who had brought
up her eldest son. Old Mrs. York cared deeply for her grandchildren.
Moreover, Tania had lived as Old Mrs. York’s
daughter–in–law for decades, so she believed in the old woman’s judgment.
Tania had not had any more encounters with
Serenity since the previous meal. However, she had been secretly observing Serenity’s actions and
conduct.
She ignored Serenity and pretended not to know her because Zachary said he wanted to examine
Serenity’s character and see whether she was worthy to spend the rest of his life with. He did not
announce he was husband and wife with Serenity.
Secondly, Tania had not fully accepted Serenity as her daughter–in–law, so she pretended not to know
the latter.
Serenity was sensible and did not pester Tania, and quickly left instead.

“That’s true. The elders in the York family are all open–minded. That’s exactly the reason those noble
ladies want to marry into your family. None of them are short of money, but you elders are open -
minded, your family is exceptional, and all the men in your family are giants among men. No matter
who they marry in the family, their happiness would be enough to make others envy.”
“It’s a shame I don’t have a daughter. Like you, I only gave birth to sons. I hope I’ll have a
granddaughter in the future.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTania’s friend also wanted to become in–laws with the York family.
Unfortunately, her womb disappointed her and did not give her a girl.
Otherwise, with Tania’s friendship and if she had a daughter, the girl would definitely be childhood
friends with Zachary.
“I look forward to having a granddaughter in the future too. There are only sons in the family. Boys are
such a headache. They’re not as considerate as girls.”
Tania did not have a daughter, so she also wanted a granddaughter in the future.
The York family would even give a reward to whoever had a daughter. Old Mrs. York said she would
award five hundred million to the couple who gave birth to a girl.
If their womb managed to produce more daughters, they would become incredibly wealthy.
The two chatted about their children as they walked.
After Serenity walked away and looked back at her mother–in–law, she saw that Tania had already left
with her friend. She stopped and was silent for a moment before walking back to her car, which was
parked at the corner of the street.
Since the day the Yorks visited Serenity and Zachary at the newlyweds‘ home, Serenity had sensed
that her mother–in–law did not like her
marriage with Zachary. However, Serenity’s mother -in–law was cultured, so even if she did not like
Serenity, she was still polite and did not make things hard for her daughter–in–law. She had at least
maintained a cordial relationship.
