Distressed and helpless, she said, \u201cSince Zachary revealed his identity, you\u2019ve continually prevented me from standing up for you. You haven\u2019t come to me to share your feelings either. I\u2019m so worried that my hair is turning gray. You and your sister are both so stubborn.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cI remember your mom has a good temper and isn\u2019t stubborn at all. I wonder who you take after with your stubbornness,\u201d she added.<\/div>\n<div>Serenity laughed and replied, \u201cDidn\u2019t you say my sister and I take after you in temperament?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Mrs. Stone choked, remembering that she admired Serenity and her sister not only because of their kinship but also due to the way they conducted themselves. Indeed, Serenity had inherited Mrs. Stone\u2019s stubbornness.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cNow that you\u2019re here today, what do you need help with?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Ever since Zachary confessed, Elisa had only felt anger. Nevertheless, she did not break ties with Serenity. Instead, she empathized with Serenity, who had been wronged and deceived by Zachary, claiming she wanted to confront him on Serenity\u2019s behalf.<\/div>\n<div>It was finally a relief for the Stones.<\/div>\n<div>Now that her daughter could face the situation openly, Mrs. Stone felt less worried. Whenever her niece needed her, she would stand up for her as her next of kin.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cAunt Audrey, I need to ask you for a favor.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cGo ahead. If it\u2019s within my abilities, I will definitely help you. Even if I can\u2019t, you have two other cousins who can assist you.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Serenity grinned and said, \u201cI don\u2019t need them. Your help is enough. You always attend social gatherings, right? I shamelessly hope you\u2019ll take me along to all the gatherings you attend in the future.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Mrs. Stone understood her request and<\/div>\n<p>She said, \u201cNo problem. I usually invite Elisa to join me at social gatherings, but she declines. She believes those people are hypocritical and feels too lazy to engage with them. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut everyone is two-faced in every circle\u2014that\u2019s the reality. For those who can benefit you, you should go all out to win them over. As for those who may not be beneficial and are easily offended, it\u2019s best not to upset them. And for those who can\u2019t help you and are of lower status, you can act superior without worrying about offending them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou just have to understand that everyone prioritizes their own interests. Don\u2019t trust others too readily. It\u2019s important to be cautious, but don\u2019t harm others either. If someone tries to harm you, don\u2019t tolerate it. Confront them boldly and make it clear that you\u2019re not someone to be trifled with.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Serenity nodded repeatedly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy didn\u2019t you ask Zachary to bring you along?\u201d Mrs. Stone inquired, curious.<\/p>\n<p>Since Serenity had come to see her today, Mrs. Stone realized that Serenity was trying to integrate into Zachary\u2019s social circle in hopes of securing a future with him.<\/p>\n<p>After a moment of silence, Serenity responded, \u201cZachary is quite domineering. I wouldn\u2019t be able to see others clearly if I attended gatherings with him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zachary would be protective of her, meaning no one would dare to provoke her in his presence. Consequently, she wouldn\u2019t be able to discern whether those people were worth befriending.<\/p>\n<p>Since she wanted to be with Zachary for the long haul, she knew she would have to attend social events alone at times in the future. If she couldn\u2019t understand those people, she might easily be deceived or manipulated in those situations.<\/p>\n<p>Serenity was eager to test her ability to adapt to a circle filled with hypocritical and scheming individuals. After\u2026<\/p>\n<p>After some reflection, Mrs. Stone remarked, \u201cThat\u2019s true. While the upper classes may appear well-educated, they are often hypocrites. Their actions frequently contradict their words, and some individuals will openly deceive you. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey are also xenophobic and reluctant to allow others into their social circles. Many wealthy women desire to associate with those from affluent families, but they are often looked down upon. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe status of the Yorks is evident. As the eldest daughter-in-law of the York family, they may not overtly act against you, but they could secretly conspire behind your back. Since you\u2019ve chosen to commit to Zachary for life, you must learn to navigate these challenges independently. You also need to develop strategies to defend yourself, ensuring you remain formidable even without Zachary by your side. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis approach will help solidify your high social standing in Wiltspoon, which will be beneficial when you take charge of the Yorks\u2019 household and strive to become a capable wife to the head of the family.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 926 While carrying Sonny with one hand, Mrs. Stone held Serenity\u2019s hand and glanced at it.
