Chapter 472
First things first, they had to deal with the problem at hand and that was seeking justice for
Sonny.
The issue of his identity being exposed could probably be delayed a little more because he would be
leaving for Annenburg soon to attend Ben Young–Johnson and Jane Murphy’s wedding.
Anyway, it could be delayed for a while.
He also had to confess the truth to Serenity before Mrs. Stone saw him.
He hoped Serenity’s reaction would not be too fierce.
In the beginning, when he did not feel anything for her at all and did not understand her either, he
thought it was normal for him to hide his identity in order to test her character.
After all, with his status, who knew if the women who approached him did so for the money or for him
as a person?
Now that he had learned about Serenity’s character, way of handling things, self–confidence, strength,
and independence, they were very much to his liking, and he was unconsciously
attracted to her.
On Elisa’s side, once she ended the call with Serenity, she immediately instructed her domestic helper,
“Mrs. Franklin, please prepare some supplements suitable for children to consume. They’re to be a
gift.”
Mrs. Franklin asked, “Miss, how old is the child?”
“A little over two years old.”
“Children that age don’t have to take supplements if they’re healthy.”
Mrs. Franklin advised her employer’s daughter.
Elisa had not been married before, so it was normal not to know things in this aspect. It was her duty to
advise the young lady, lest the young lady were to give the wrong present and take
anger out on her when she returned.
her
“Not even a little?”
Now that she thought about it, Sonny was healthy and indeed did not need any supplements.
“Unless they’re iron, zinc, or calcium supplements, but we don’t have any at home.”
Among the three Stone siblings, Clive was married, but because he was pliant to his wife and the
couple still wanted to enjoy their time as a couple, they had not had children yet. Meanwhile, Anthony
and Elisa did not even warrant a mention here as they were both still
single. That was the reason there were no health products suitable for children at home.
“Forget it then. There‘s no need to prepare children‘s supplements then. Just help me prepare some
nourishing food for me to send over to Liberty. I can‘t show up empty-handed now, can I? When I go
out in a bit, I‘ll buy a few toys for Sonny at the toy shop outside too.”
If Liberty heard this, she would have thought, ‘I‘m already as fat as a pig and being forced by Mr. Lewis
to lose weight, and now Elisa wants to give me nourishing food?‘
“Do you want it now?”
Elisa thought for a moment, then replied, “Just have it ready. After my mom gets back, i‘ll bring it with
me when I go out then.”
Sonny looked like her aunt. Elisa thought it would be better if she brought her mother to visit so she
could see Sonny for herself.
No matter if they were related or not, it was still a thread of hope.
She would not misunderstand Serenity to have ulterior motives; they could not fake this anyway.
Her mother would still do a DNA test as a follow–up. With that, the truth of whether or not they were
truly related would be laid bare.
Plus, with Serenity‘s character, she would never do something like pose as her relative just to gain
riches by connection.
“Alright.”
Mrs. Franklin obediently went to prepare the nourishing food for Elisa.
Elisa called her mother.
“Mom, where are you and Dad now?”
Mrs. Stone laughed on the other end of the call. “We‘ll be home in half an hour. Why, do you miss me?”
Elisa pouted. “I miss you so much, Mom! I think of you every day. At any given moment, I‘m thinking of
you.”
Mrs Stone was annused by her daughter and joked, “I thought you only knew how to think of Zachary
York.”
“Mom, don‘t mention him to me ever again. He already has a partner.”
At the mention of Zachary, Elisa‘s smile vanished.
That hit right where it hurt!
