“Don’t worry, Mom. I won’t drop Sonny, even if I fall.”
After playing with Sonny for a while, Elisa set him down and asked, “Sonny, do you like me?”
“Yes, I like you very much. You’re pretty. I like you.”
Elisa gently pinched his cheek and smiled, “You’re so sweet, Sonny. You’re still young, yet you already know how to make a woman happy. When you grow up, you’ll definitely be a heartthrob.”
She then touched her face confidently and added, “That said, Sonny is just a child. He’s being sincere and telling the truth. I’m just pretty and charming.”
Serenity grinned and replied, “Yes, Sonny is telling the truth.”
Mrs. Stone remarked, “How boastful of you.”
“Mom, Seren, what were you two looking at? I saw you both engrossed when I came in.”
Elisa glanced at the stack of invitation cards, casually picked one up, and flipped through it. After looking it over, she placed it back on the coffee table and said, “I really dislike attending these kinds of social gatherings.”
“Seren, is my mom planning to bring you along? Let me tell you, these occasions aren’t fun. We might as well invite Jasmine out for Italian food instead.”
Mrs. Stone scolded her daughter, “Do you think everyone is like you? You said you wanted to learn how to start a business and invest. If you don’t socialize with others, how will you grow a business? I heard the Dowlings are having a social gathering tomorrow night. Both of you should come with me and make an appearance. It’s important to learn how to socialize.”
“Mom, I’m not going. Besides, the Dowlings’ status is much lower than ours. Since when do you show respect for families that aren’t wealthy?”
“Elisa, I was the one who asked Aunt Audrey to—”
“Bring me along. I suppose I will have to attend such social gatherings in the future. I’ll consider it a learning experience,” she said.
Elisa then asked, “Oh, so you’ve made amends with Zachary, huh? You should acknowledge me as the older cousin-in-law. I’ll put in a good word as soon as he sees me as family.”
Mrs. Stone replied, “You’re younger than Zachary by a few years, yet you shamelessly want him to recognize you as the older cousin-in-law.”
Elisa defended herself, saying, “I’m Seren’s cousin, while Zachary is Seren’s husband, so technically, I hold a higher position in seniority. Seniority isn’t determined by age—some people are uncles from the moment they are born.”
