Serenity and Zachary York

After Fox left Dylan PLC, she quickly hailed a cab and left in it. She even looked back to make sure Dylan had not come after her. She had to admit that she put a bit too much strength into that kick. He had probably fallen back onto the floor and could not get up in time.

Half an hour later at the Stones' residence, a stranger stood at the entrance. She looked around and glanced repeatedly at the plaque to confirm she was in the right place. Then, she rang the doorbell. Soon, a female employee walked out and saw the pretty but unfamiliar girl in her twenties standing at the entrance, dressed in regular clothing and holding a little bag. She even looked a little timid when she spotted the employee.

The employee did not immediately open the door and asked behind the gate, "May I know who you're looking for?"

Was she Ms. Elisa's friend? It did not look like it. Ms. Elisa did not have many good friends, and the closest was Tasha House. Most of the other rich socialites did not like interacting with their young lady, and because of how proud she was, she did not care to connect with those who did not like her.

However, if she was not Elisa's friend, then was she... Mr. Anthony's girlfriend? Mr. Clive was already married and was even a father now. He had a very good relationship with his wife too, so there was no way he had a mistress.

Setting aside Clive and Elisa as reasons, the employee then assumed the girl was there for Anthony.

The girl replied, "Hi, I'm here to look for my old man."

"Your old man?" The helper was stunned for a moment until something occurred to her and her expression twisted.

Only one person in this household

could be considered someone's "old man" and that was Mr. Stone. The helper's first thought was that Mr. Stone had a mistress behind Mrs. Stone's back. She seemed

vermet

young-younger than Elisa even. Mr. Stone was a grandfather now, so how could he lay hands on a girl younger than his own daughter?

Then, she thought that there was no way this girl was Mr. Stone's

mistress. Instead, she had to be his daughter out of wedlock. It was so. hard to tell! Mr. Stone looked like he loved Mrs. Stone so much and was such an accommodating husband, but he was actually capable of having a mistress and even a twenty-something-year-old daughter out of wedlock. If Mrs. Stone heard about this, chaos would ensue.

The employee scrutinized the girl closely and felt that she did not look a single bit like Mr. Stone. Perhaps she resembled her mother. She was very pretty, so her mother must have been a real beauty when she was young. Otherwise, she would not have been able to mesmerize Mr. Stone.

The girl was dressed simply and looked a bit timid, but had a determined and even slightly cunning gaze. Perhaps Mr. Stone had not given enough money for child support and she was not well-provided materially. That would explain why she was dressed so simply.

Mrs. Stone was the one who

managed the home, so although Mr. Stone was rich, Mrs. Stone knew exactly how much he owned. If he gave his mistress extra money for his daughter, Mrs. Stone would notice. That might also be why. The employee had already concocted a thrilling plot tens of thousands of words long.

Although she had been overthinking it, she still asked carefully, "Miss, your old man isn't here. What did you say his name was?"
