Grandma May remarked, “They may not know what car I drive, but they did stop your mother-in-law and your second aunt-in-law p>
Noticing Serenity’s troubled expression, she quickly reassured her. “We all understand the type of people they are. While they’re currently demanding a bride price, their real intention is to make things difficult for you within our family p>
“We can see through their little schemes. Don’t worry, Seren. We didn’t allow them to gain anything. When they obstructed your mother-in-law’s car, she immediately called the police, claiming someone was blocking the road and attempting to rob her p>
“Your grandfather is truly shameless. He pretended to be hit and lay on the ground, not realizing that the road was under surveillance. The police reviewed the footage and discovered he had thrown himself down. They criticized him, lectured him, and instructed his children and grandchildren to take him away p>
“What’s even worse is that they brought reporters disguised as their accomplices to secretly film the incident, but that plan was also exposed. While the videos were deleted, the news will inevitably spread. You don’t need to worry about it p>
“Everyone in Wiltspoon knows the kind of people they are and how they have treated you and your sister. I’m sharing this because I believe they won’t give up even after being reprimanded by the police. They may devise some scheme against you and your sister, with a greater focus on you p>
This was because Serenity had now become the eldest daughter-in-law of the York family.
Her relatives were doing everything they could to separate Serenity from Zachary, hoping to create an unhappy life for her in her husband’s home.
Jobs and businesses were no longer viable sources of income for the entire family, and they were now relying solely on their savings. Unable to confront Zachary directly, they redirected all their frustrations toward Serenity.
Although Serenity was the matriarch of the York family, this did not alter their familial ties. No matter how impressive Zachary was, he could not simply dismiss a large family with numerous members. As long as Zachary refrained from taking drastic actions, they felt emboldened and would seize any chance to harass Serenity.
Threats and warnings held no power over these individuals. Even if law enforcement was called, they were not engaging in any illegal activities, leaving the police with only the option of issuing a warning at most.
It was commonly said that it was better to offend a gentleman than a rogue, and the people from Serenity’s hometown certainly fit the latter description. They were both shameless and cunning.
Serenity replied coolly, “I’m not afraid, Nana. If they dare to confront me, I’ll chase them away with a broom. We’ve successfully driven them off many times, which is why they’ve come to you, knowing they can’t gain anything from me p>
If they believed that the York family would provide them with money simply to avoid their harassment, they were sorely mistaken.
“Nana, Zachary is still home. I’ll walk you to the stairs, and then you can head upstairs on your own. I need to go to the store,” Serenity said.
“No need for that. You can just go to work. I know my way upstairs. I’ll manage by myself,” Grandma May insisted, declining Serenity’s offer to accompany her.
Despite this, Serenity still assisted the elderly woman by pulling her suitcase and then called Zachary to inform him that his grandmother had arrived.
She only left once she spotted Jim and the other bodyguards. She recalled the first time she encountered Jim and the rest of the security team, thinking they lived nearby.
After departing from Brynfield, Serenity…
She noticed that someone was secretly following her. Staying calm, she relied on her knowledge of the area and avoided the main roads, opting for small alleyways and making left and right turns until she lost her pursuer. She suspected it was the paparazzi.
Despite her identity as the eldest daughter of the York family being public, she remained unfazed by media attention. In her heart, she knew it was thanks to Zachary that no one dared approach her openly; he ensured that the media would not disturb her.
However, it was challenging to stop the paparazzi from trailing her and covertly capturing photos. Everyone in Wiltspoon was aware that she was Mrs. York now, but many were curious about how her relationship with Zachary had begun and how they interacted in their daily lives. If they could snap some photos of her and Zachary in private, it would satisfy the public’s curiosity.
Upon returning to Wiltspoon School, she found that Jasmine had already opened the shop. Mrs. Lane was there as well.
