Get a few people to watch over it.\u201d During her walk, Mrs. Stone expressed her concern that her daughter\u2019s house lacked liveliness.<\/div>\n<div>The Stones\u2019 housekeeper would arrange for someone to clean the villa, but it remained unoccupied.<\/div>\n<div>Elisa appreciated the solitude and freedom of being untethered by anyone\u2019s expectations.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cI think it\u2019s perfect just the way it is.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Elisa preferred to maintain the current situation.<\/div>\n<div>Mrs. Stone shot her daughter a disapproving glance, not wanting to continue the argument.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cI\u2019m going to a charity gala tonight. You should come with me.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cMom, you know I\u2019ve never liked attending galas. Why not invite Seren or Liberty instead?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Mrs. Stone playfully tapped Elisa\u2019s head. \u201cYou\u2019re a businesswoman now. Networking is essential. How can you succeed in business without socializing? Your success in Wiltspoon is largely due to your brother\u2019s reputation. People are willing to engage with you for the sake of our family\u2019s standing.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cFortunately, the vegetables from your farm have been well-received. At least no one has criticized them. But once you leave Wiltspoon for other cities, who will even know who you are?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cI\u2019m insisting you attend the gala for your own benefit. Seren may not enjoy such events either, but she is responsible, self-motivated, and eager to connect with others. She has changed significantly and is now much more confident.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cMoreover, Zachary will be at the charity gala as well. Seren will surely accompany him, so how can she be there for me? You\u2019re my daughter.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>At times, Mrs. Stone felt powerless against her daughter\u2019s stubbornness, a result of the family\u2019s indulgence.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cWhat about Liberty? You can bring her along.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cDon\u2019t you know her personality? Even\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Seren couldn\u2019t convince her to attend, and I certainly couldn\u2019t either. Liberty needs to care for Sonny at night.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Elisa pursed her lips and reached a compromise. \u201cFine. I\u2019ll go with you to the gala. How much money and what items will the Stone Group donate?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019ll find out tonight.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>The prominent families in Wiltspoon typically attended significant charity galas, donating items regardless of whether their motives were kindness or reputation preservation. <\/p>\n<p>It would be Serenity\u2019s first time accompanying Zachary to such an event, as they represented the Yorks. Mrs. Stone would not be able to persuade Serenity to stay with her. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMom, will Mr. Reading be there?\u201d Elisa suddenly asked, worried that Mrs. Stone might arrange for her to interact with Andrew. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow would I know? I can\u2019t read Mr. Reading\u2019s mind.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Elisa playfully stuck her tongue out before falling silent. Mrs. Stone had reconciled with Elisa, and now that she had come to speak with her personally, Elisa\u2019s anger over being dismissed from Mrs. Stone\u2019s car had faded. <\/p>\n<p>Since Serenity would accompany Zachary to the charity gala, she planned to close her bookstore in the afternoon and send Sonny to Liberty\u2019s house. Just then, Jasmine arrived at the store. <\/p>\n<p>As Serenity prepared to close, Jasmine said, \u201cSeren, I\u2019ll watch the store. You can do whatever you want. I was bored at home, but I finally convinced Josh to let me out.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>While speaking, Jasmine walked into the store and set her bag on the counter. \u201cI\u2019ll keep an eye on the shop. I\u2019d much rather read novels here than lie at home like a pig. I sleep and eat at home, which makes me feel like I\u2019m living a pig\u2019s life.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"text-chapter-toolbar\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#\"><i class=\"icon ion-md-settings\"><\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 1653 \u201cThis house is too quiet.
