Chapter 3388
Her mother-in-law especially loved Elisa, and Elisa’s personality was quite similar to her grandmother’s.
“Miss Audrey, you are too modest. You have completely inherited the abilities of the head of the family. You can shine wherever you are.”
There was pride in Old Mr. Jimenez’s words—the kind of pride that is the best that can be felt in her children.
Audrey and Darrell helped Old Mr. Jimenez out of the room. Audrey smiled and said, “I don’t know the status of the Farrell family’s successor. Unless I start my own business, I need a mentor to recognize a good horse. As a worker, there are too many things that cannot be decided by me.”
She later had her own company.
After Clive took over, she handed over her company to him. She retired and stayed at home to accompany her old husband and spend her old age in peace.
She also worried about her children’s marriage from time to time.
She didn’t have to worry too much about Clive, and she didn’t have to worry about Elisa now.
The youngest son, Leland, was the only one who gave Audrey the most headaches. When it came to the matter of marriage, Leland was really adamant, and no matter how much she persuaded him, he wouldn’t listen. When she wanted to arrange a blind date for him, he just wouldn’t go. When she asked the girl to look for him, he either found an excuse to slip away or dressed up as a homeless man and told the girl that he was an unkempt man.
The blind dates that Audrey arranged for Leland were all rich girls from Wiltspoon.
Which rich young lady would be interested in the unkempt appearance of Leland, the second young master Stone?
It had since been left unresolved.
The main reason was that Leland rarely appeared in the upper-class circle. He did not need to take over the family business because Clive was too capable. He only needed to do what he liked, and he was often away from home.
Sometimes he didn’t go home for a year or half a year.
Not many people understand Leland. They thought he was the kind of person who didn’t care about his appearance. When they compared him with Clive, they were greatly disappointed.
Gradually, the ladies in Wiltspoon were no longer willing to introduce girlfriends to Leland.
Some people were worried that Elisa was difficult to get along with.
After all, Elisa didn’t have a very good reputation in the upper-class society of Wiltspoon City. It has only improved now, but her previous image of being arrogant and rude has been deeply rooted in people’s minds.
“I heard a child laughing.”
Old Mr. Jimenez heard Sonny’s laughter and couldn’t help but speak.
He actually liked children very much.
When the previous matriarch was still alive, after he had finished his work, he liked to play with the two little girls. Miss Audrey could be said to have grown up sitting on his shoulders until she was eight years old. Miss Harlow also liked to stick to him.
Because he loved the two young ladies as if they were his own daughters.
The children’s hearts were pure, and they could feel his genuine love for them, so they naturally clung to him.
The previous matriarch was murdered, and he was hunted down. After being rescued by the old doctor and his friends, he lived with them for decades and watched their apprentices grow up. Those guys were very naughty when they were young, but fortunately, they were also sensible.
Nowadays, those naughty kids have become influential figures in their respective industries.
“It’s Liberty’s son, Sonny, a three-year-old child who can’t calm down. He looks a lot like Liberty. Seeing him is like seeing Liberty when she was a child.”
Old Mr. Jimenez said happily, “That’s good; that’s good; Harlow left behind descendants, which is a little consolation; she…”
His smile disappeared in an instant, and he said sadly: “If I had found you two sisters earlier, Miss Harlow would not have been in trouble, and she would still be fine.”
Audrey was also heartbroken after losing her only sister, Harlow. But she still had to comfort Uncle Jimenez, for fear that he was too old, his emotions were volatile, and that he might have problems again.
“Liberty and Serenity are very good sisters. They have sought justice for the injustice that Harlow suffered in the past.”
