Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei Chapter 167

Chapter
167 Once Elisa was gone, Jasmine asked curiously, “Seren, how did you know Ms. Stone? She even c
ame to the shop to look for you.”

Serenity told Jasmine the whole story about Elisa flagging her e–
bike down and sending Elisa to York Corporation.

Jasmine replied after a pause, “Really?”

Props to Elisa for her courage and tenacity to go after the heir of the York.

“I think Ms. Stone isn‘t as unreasonable as described in the rumors. She‘s only haughty because of her
upbringing. She hasn‘t lost perspective on life though. While she loves Mr. York, she said she wouldn‘t
ask Mr. York out if he was taken.”

Elisa‘s pride kept her from coming in between someone else‘s relationship

Jasmine concurred , “She sounds like a great gal. We‘re not in
her circle, so we wouldn‘t know her true character without engaging with her. The
rumors can‘t be trusted completely. Sometimes, seeing is not believing either, let alone hearsays.”

Since Elisa held prestige in class, many who were jealous of her might spread the word that she was o
bnoxious,

bossy, and rude.

Elisa‘s visit did not affect Serenity whatsoever.

She kept to her routine while Jasmine started to wear Serenity down about attending Mrs. so–and–
so‘s birthday party with her.



“The party will be held at the Dawsons‘ mansion. The Dawsons are neighbors with my aunt. Plus, they
do business together. My aunt wouldn‘t ask me to
tag along if it weren‘t because she had a good relationship with the family. Come with me, Seren. My
aunt is trying to set me up with her neighbor‘s oldest son.” Jasmine vaguely remembered the Dawsons‘
son. Since she often spent time at her aunt‘s place, Jasmine had met the neighbors.

The young heir of the Dawson family was plump and mediocre at best
when it came to looks. No one would do

a double–take at the man on the streets if he was not born into wealth and power.

Not everybody in higher society had a pretty face.

“Mrs. Lowe‘s taking you to fix you up for a date. Why should I come along? It‘s different this time. It‘s M
rs. Dawson‘s birthday party. I‘m not going.”

Serenity would not budge, refusing to accompany her best friend to another party.

There would be many at the event, but less than a handful

whom Serenity would know. She would only go there for the food. Although she was a foodie, it did not
mean she would bury her face in food all the time. Serenity did not want to embarrass herself either.

The upper crust would not be caught dead stuffing their face, unlike her.

“You‘re my best friend. Come and check out the guy for

me.”

“Your aunt will see if the guy is a good fit for you without my help. Mrs. Lowe has more experience any
way. She‘s been through it all. Not to mention, you‘re her niece. She‘ll only want



the best for you. You should give it a go since she intends to set you up with the Dawsons‘ son.

“It‘s better than the so–called fine men your mom introduced you to.”

Jasmine responded, “The guy isn‘t good–looking at all. He‘s short and fat. He‘s still single at thirty–
five years old because he doesn‘t have the looks. For that reason, Mrs. Dawson is growing anxious and
the same social class.

“My aunt saw it as
a chance for me to marry up. She doesn‘t have my best interest at heart. I don‘t want to go. My aunt eve

single. Is it wrong to be single at twenty–five?”

It really put Jasmine on the spot.

It was not like she was thirty–five. Yet, her mother and aunt kept badgering her about tying the knot.

Her mother was not as pushy before Serenity got hitched. Now that Serenity said goodbye to singlehood
even in the air that she breathed. She believed she could forget ever finding peace until she started dati

“So, you don‘t like the Dawsons‘ son because he‘s ugly.”

Serenity believed it was not all about social class for Mrs. Lowe. Character was important too. Jasmine w
no matter what. Mrs. Lowe would not push her niece to a terrible man unless she wanted to break ties w
