Once Elisa was gone, Jasmine asked curiously, “Seren, how did y ou know Ms. Stone? She even came 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 t he York.

“I think Ms. Stone isn't as unreasonable as described in the rumor s. She's only haughty because of her upbringing. She hasn't lost p erspective 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 rela tionship Jasmine concurred , “She sounds like a great gal. We're not in her circle, so we wouldn't know her true character without engagin g with her. The

rumors can't be trusted completely. Sometimes, seeing is not belie ving either, let alone hearsays.” Since Elisa held prestige in cla®s, many who were jealous of her m ight spread the word that she was obnoxious, bossy, and rude.

Elisa's visit did not affect Serenity whatsoever.

She kept to her routine while Jasmine started to wear Serenity do wn about attending Mrs. so—and-so's birthday party with her.

“The party will be held at the Dawsons’ mansion. The Dawsons ar e 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 th e family. Come with me, Seren. My aunt is trying to set me up with her neighbor's oldest son.” Jasmin e vaguely remembered the Dawsons' son. Since she often spent ti me 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 | com e along? It's different this time. It's Mrs. Dawson's birthday party. I' m not going.” Serenity would not budge, refusing to accompany her best friend t © 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 fac ein food all the time. Serenity did not want to embarra*s 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 anyway. 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 y ou 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 has become less fussy abo ut marrying in the same social cla*s.

“My aunt saw it as a chance for me to marry up. She doesn't have my best interest at heart. | don't want to go. My aunt even called my mom, so both of them can gang up on me. | had no choice but to give in to their re quest. My mom has been nagging now more than ever about us b eing at the same age, but you're married while I'm still

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 k not.

Her mother was not as pushy before Serenity got hitched. Now th at Serenity said goodbye to singlehood, everything Jasmine did se -emed wrong in her mother's eyes. Jasmine‘s mother could find fau It even in the air that she breathed. She believed she could forget ev er finding peace until she started dating.

“So, you don't like the Dawsons' son because he's ugly.” Serenity believed it was not all about social cla®s for Mrs. Lowe. C haracter was important too. Jasmine was her niece no matter what. Mrs. Lowe would not push her niece to a terrible man unless she wanted to break ties with Jasmine's family.
