Chapter 1653
“This house is too quiet. Get a few people to watch the house.” During her walk, Mrs. Stone complained that her
daughter’s house was too quiet.
The Stones‘ housekeeper would arrange for someone to clean the villa, but no one lived there.
Elisa enjoyed being alone and free without being controlled by anyone.
“I think this is great.”
Elisa would like to keep to the status quo.
Mrs. Stone shot a glance at her daughter. She did not want to keep arguing over the topic with her.
“I’m attending a charity gala tonight. Come with me.”
“Mom, you know I’ve always disliked attending galas. You can get Seren or Liberty to accompany you there.”
Mrs. Stone could not help but poke Elisa’s head. “You’re now a businesswoman. It’s important to socialize. If you

brother’s reputation. Other people are willing to do it for the sake of our family’s status.
“Thankfully, the vegetables on your farm aren’t too bad. At least no one criticized it. Once you leave Wiltspoon and
move to other cities, who else will know who you are?
“I’m taking you to the gala for the sake of your future. Seren doesn’t like this kind of occasion too, but she’s
responsible, self–motivated, and willing to learn to blend in with the people. She’s different from before. Now, she’s
a lot more confident.
“What’s more, Zachary has to attend the charity gala. Seren will definitely go with him, so how can she accompany
me? You’re my daughter.”
Sometimes, Mrs. Stone could not do anything to her daughter. It was her family that pampered her daughter this
way.
“What about Liberty? You can bring her along.”
“Don’t you know her temperament? Even Seren can’t persuade her to attend, much less me. Liberty needs to look
after Sonny at night.”
Elisa pursed her lips and compromised. “Fine. I’ll accompany you to the gala. How much money and how many
things is Stone Group going to donate?”
“You’ll know tonight.”
The prominent families in Wiltspoon would attend important charity galas and donate things; regardless of whether
they did it out of kindness or for the sake of their reputation.

It would be Serenity’s first time accompanying Zachary to attend this kind of event. The two of them were
representatives of the Yorks.
Mrs. Stone could not possibly get Serenity to keep her company.

She was worried that Mrs. Stone would arrange for her to get along with Andrew.
“How would I know? I can’t read Mr. Reading’s mind.”
Elisa stuck out her tongue playfully. Then, she stopped speaking.
Mrs. Stone had made peace with Elisa. Now that Mrs. Stone came to meet Elisa personally, Elisa’s anger at being
kicked out of Mrs. Stone’s car subsided.
As Serenity was going to accompany Zachary to attend the charity gala, she planned to close her bookstore in the
afternoon and send Sonny to Liberty’s place. That was when Jasmine came to the store.
Just as Serenity was about to close the store, Jasmine said, “Seren, I’ll watch the store. You can do whatever you
want. I felt bored staying at home. I could finally convince Josh to let me out.”
While speaking, Jasmine walked into the store and placed her bag on the counter. She added, “I’ll watch the store.
I’d rather read s in the store than lie at home like a pig. I sleep and eat at home, which makes me feel like I’m
living the life of a pig.”
