Married At First Sight Chapter 4227
"Health is the most important thing. Everything elsees second. With the York family''s wealth and influence, even if my nephew is just average, they won''t have to worry aboutcking a sessor."
Privately, though, Elisa still hoped her nephew would be the next head of the York family.
Now that the Stone and York families were rted by marriage, her nephew was not only her rtive but also Serenity''s cousin. He would likely inherit the Stone family''s legacy. If the
York family''s sessor wasn''t her nephew, would that strain the newly improved rtionship between the two families?
After all, the next head of the York family wouldn''t be directly connected to the Stone family anymore.
Elisa kept those thoughts to herself, not wanting to pressure Serenity. Besides, from her nephew''s perspective, good health mattered more than anything else. "Elisa, you''re busy. I won''t keep you. You and Remy have been working so hardtely."
Elisa had been swamped, and Remy, feeling sorry for her, did everything he could to help. He was more capable than Elisa in some areas, and at times, she would let him handle her workload. Over time, he had learned everything about her business, making it easier to support her whenever needed.
"Serenity, stop with the formalities. We''re not just cousins-we''re best friends."
"You and Jasmine are my closest girlfriends. I may not have many great qualities, but I''m
loyal."
Being loyal could be both a strength and a weakness. Sometimes, people who were overly affectionate made mistakes because of it.
Serenity chuckled. "Alright, alright, no more formalities. I''ll hang up now."
She ended the call quickly, not wanting to take up more of Elisa''s time.
Feeling cheerful, Elisa reviewed and signed a contract with a business partner. Afterward, she smiled apologetically and said, "I wanted to invite you for tea and dinner, but just got a call from Serenity. My friend just had a baby, and ''like to visit her in the hospital. Let''s reschedule dinner. My secretary will see you out."
The partnersughed. "That''s wonderful news! Go visit your friend. We''ll treat you to dinner another day."
Thispany had three female CEOs, all from influential families. They rarely hosted business dinners, not because they didn''t want to, but because if they did, their husbands- who were also powerful
njoin ve
figures-would insist That often made others feel pressured rather than rxed.
When they did attend social events, they never had to drink unless they wanted to. No one dared pressure them, especially with men like Mr York watching. His cold stare atone could make anyone freeze. As for Miss Stone''s fiancé, Remy, he might seem warm and gentle, but he was a formidable businessman.
Elisa shook hands with her partners, personally seeing them out before returning
to her desk. She tidied up, shut down herputer, grabbed her bag, and left.
Just outside, her secretary approached. "Miss Stone, where are you going? It''s almost time for the meeting."
