Grandma May still needed to evaluate the wife candidates for her fourth and fifth grandsons. If everything went smoothly, she could finalize the arrangements.
Her fourth and fifth grandsons shivered in fear at the thought.
Zachary hummed softly.
Grandma May turned to Serenity and said, “Seren, let Zack take you around while he’s on holiday. It doesn’t matter if you don’t visit other places, but you must see our family’s estates.”
Serenity was destined to be the lady of the York family in the future.
She needed to familiarize herself with the York family’s assets.
“Now that you’re back, I will ask your mother-in-law to show you all the accounts of our family’s assets. You don’t have to manage them right away, but once you gain some experience and your mother-in-law wishes to retire, you’ll need to take over.”

You also need to become familiar with managing the staff at Wildridge Manor, tracking income and expenses, and handling the accounts,” she advised.
Concerned that Serenity might feel overwhelmed, Zachary interjected, “Nana, that can wait until Seren and I are married. She still has to focus on her vegetable farm investment for now. Once she becomes more adept at managing that, we can ease her into taking over gradually.”
Grandma May chuckled and replied, “I’m not expecting Seren to take on everything all at once. I simply want her to gain some experience.”
