Chapter 131
Serenity was unaffected by the traffic congestion as she rode her electric bike.
It took more than ten minutes to arrive at York Corporation.
She stopped the bike and turned to Elisa and said, “We‘re here, Miss.”
Elisa returned the helmet to Serenity and thanked her.
“It‘s just a small favor. No need to thank me.”
Elisa looked at her and asked, “May I know what‘s your name? You look really familiar for some reason. Have we met before?”
“My last name is Hunt. I also quite like you, Miss. Unfortunately, we‘ve never met before.”
Beautiful women had always left an impression on her, but she had no recollection of this lady.
“Your last name is Hunt? Oh, I remember now. There was news about an unfilial granddaughter that went viral before. The granddaughter‘s last name was also Hunt, and there was a photo attached as well. I think you look a bit like one of the little girls in the photo. Was that you?”
The “unfilial granddaughter” news had left a deep
impression on Elisa, and she remembered the childhood photo of Serenity and her sister that the Hunt family released.
Back then, she not only scolded this trending news for distracting the netizens‘ attention, but also the Hunt sisters for being unfilial. Unexpectedly , when the truth was revealed, she scolded the Hunt family instead.
Her mother had told her off, saying that she had no patience and critical thinking skills despite being in her twenties. She simply went along and scolded the Hunt sisters because of a one–sided story.
Since she was rebuking the Hunt sisters at home, her mother got curious about the news and wanted to read about it. Unfortunately, after the tables turned, the Hunt family was overwhelmed by the netizens‘ lambast and quickly swiped clean all their posts. It was clear that the Hunt family had connections of their own.
The eldest son of a Hunt‘s relative was a manager in a company under Stone Group. After the situation turned one–eighty, the majority of angry netizens went after the Hunt family and dug up John‘s identity. They even went to Stone Group‘s official page to leave messages, asking the headquarters to dismiss John.
Serenity did not expect to be recognized through a mere childhood photo of hers. Thinking of how she now had
the upper hand, she smiled and admitted it. “You have both good eyes and a good memory, Miss.” “There‘s no way I won‘t remember you. The viral news about you divided the attention of many netizens. Even though the situation is reversed now, it‘s still trending on a lot of news sites.”
Serenity‘s eyes flashed at Elisa‘s words, and she asked tentatively, “Miss, are you the daughter of the Stone family?”
Elisa praised her, “You‘re really smart. You got it in one.”
Serenity laughed too. “That‘s such a coincidence. I also have to thank you for stepping in and suppressing the trending search. It‘s thanks to you that my sister and I didn‘t suffer much. You must be here to deliver breakfast to Mr. York, right?”
“Yep.”
The two got along rather well, and for the first time, Elisa chatted pleasantly with a person she had just met.
“Then you should hurry inside , Ms. Stone. It‘s already eight. Mr. York will be hungry if you don‘t deliver the food.”
Elisa looked at the time and said, “He probably hasn‘t arrived yet since there‘s a traffic jam. I was trying to reach the company before he arrived. Fortunately, you gave me a ride.”
“No problem. You helped me with that incident of mine, so I‘m grateful to you.”
Serenity was in disbelief that fate worked so mysteriously. They were from completely different worlds, but they ended up crossing paths. Elisa smiled. “You don‘t need to thank me. I did it for myself.”
At that moment, Zachary‘s motorcade was approaching from afar.
Elisa was exceptionally familiar with her beloved‘s car. As soon as she saw the procession of luxury cars approaching, she stopped chatting with Serenity. She quickly took out her business card and shoved it to Serenity. “Ms. Hunt, since you helped me today, you can just call me if you need anything in the future. I‘ll definitely do my best to help you.”
