While on the way to the DNA testing center, Serenity received a wired transfer from Zachary for fifty thousand dollars.
Afraid that she might not accept the money, Zachary included a text message to her.
“Seren, I’ll take it as you don’t see me as your husband if you don’t accept the money. The husband is supposed to make money for the wife to spend.”
Serenity read the text message and had a big smile on her face.
Zachary had learned to guilt her into accepting things.
She was not in a hurry to accept the transaction. Once at the DNA testing center, she waited until Mrs. Stone’s and her blood were drawn before accepting the fifty thousand dollars.
With the money her husband gave, Serenity generously took Mrs. Stone and her daughter to have lunch at a five-star hotel.
The five-star hotel Serenity was most familiar with in all of Wiltspoon was the Wiltspoon Hotel.
The Wiltspoon Hotel was a hotel under York Corporation’s flagship. The Yorks and the Stones were not on good terms. In fact, they were competitors. It only dawned on Serenity when they were already at the hotel.
Serenity apologetically said to Mrs. Stone. “How about another restaurant instead, Mrs. Stone?”
Getting the message, Mrs. Stone smiled and replied, “It’s fine. I used to come here a lot for client meetings when I was running the company.”
She then glanced at her daughter.
Elisa could take a hint. She understood the meaning behind the look from her mother.
With her face falling, Elisa remarked, “It’s not like I’ll run into him here, Mom. So what if he’s really here?”
Despite her heart breaking into pieces, Elisa forced herself to let go of her feelings the moment she saw the wedding ring on Zachary’s finger.
Alice said to stay away from unfaithful men because there were plenty of good men out there. It would not be hard for Elisa to find a husband who was as brilliant as Zachary and only had eyes for her.
