Chapter 136
Darrell did not even know if his sister-in-law was dead or alive.
“Maybe we’ll run into your sister or her children by chance if we go out on a vacation.”
After a moment of silence , Audrey said, “My sister was still so young when we separated. Women go through drastic changes from how they were when they were little. Even if I happen to meet her children, who knows if I’ll be able to recognize them as my niece or nephews?”
“Come on, let’s go for a holiday!”
Not being able to brush off her daughter’s thoughtfulness, Audrey roused her spirits and agreed to go on a beach vacation with Elisa.
Seeing that her mother agreed, Elisa exchanged a glance with her father, then thought of other topics to talk to her mother about. As she chattered, she brought up today’s events.
She said happily, “Mom, I saw Zachary today. He stopped the car and even wound down the window to talk to me. Unfortunately, the bouquet I stuffed into his car was thrown out by him.”
Audrey was speechless,
“I also met a new friend. Her name is Serenity. For some reason, she gave me a familiar feeling the moment I saw her. It was as if I felt a sense of kinship with her. She even helped me, so I left her my name card.”
Audrey asked, “Was it that poor woman who was morally blackmailed by her relatives?”
“Yep, that’s the one.”
“What a small world. The news about you two went viral at the same time, and out of the thousands of people, the person whose bike you stopped happened to be her. She also actually agreed to send you to York Corporation to chase after Zachary.”
Audrey teased her daughter, “What’s even rarer is that you actually consider her a friend. Darrell, let’s keep an eye on the sky later and see if there are any pigs flying. I can’t believe your darling daughter actually made a friend.”
“Mom!” Elisa cried out, disgruntled.
“What’s wrong with me making a friend? I just like Serenity. She gives me a sense of familiarity. She even supported me and encouraged me to pursue Zachary.”
Audrey was also very helpless regarding her daughter’s infatuation with Zachary. “You would forget even your last name when it comes to Zachary.”
However, she indeed admired Zachary. If her daughter
did successfully win him over, she would be overjoyed nonetheless.
There were only a few outstanding men like Zachary, and the York family was outstanding too. If two of their families could be united by marriage, it would not only ease the discord between them, but also make her daughter happy for a lifetime. “Bring Serenity back and introduce her to me when you’re free another day.” Audrey said as she felt that her daughter had too few friends.
It was rare for her daughter to make a friend, so she wanted to meet the girl who could make her daughter feel a sense of kinship at first sight.
“Sure. We’ll have to see if she contacts me first. I’ll bring her back to meet you when we become closer. Wait, no. Mom, you’re making it sound as if I’m bringing a girlfriend back to meet you. I’m your
daughter!”
Audrey poked her daughter’s head in amusement.“ You’re the one who got the wrong idea. Don’t blame it on
me.”
Elisa playfully stuck out her tongue.
She might have to take the initiative to contact Serenity.
However, there was no harm in that. Since she liked Serenity, she did not mind making the first move. It was just like how she loved Zachary. Since she loved him, she
pursued him on her own accord and made her feelings known!
