Chapter 3389
Old Mr. Jimenez expressed his relief, saying, “I have confidence in Serenity’s husband. She has married into the York family, so there’s no need to worry about her future. She will thrive; the matriarch of the York family is very astute.”
“I heard that Liberty is divorced, and she has custody of their son. Before I arrived here, I had someone investigate her ex-husband. He was the disgrace of the Brown family and quite shameless. However, Liberty is still young, in her early thirties, and she will need to find a partner in the future. The head of the Farrell family typically invites a man to live with her without marrying him.”
Audrey arranged for Liberty to go to Jensburg, and Old Mr. Jimenez recognized that Audrey would not vie for the role of family head but would allow the younger generation to compete for it instead.
As the eldest daughter of the York family, Serenity is not suited to be the family head. Even if the eldest son of the York family were willing to step up, it would be awkward for the Farrell family to accept him.
Elisa is still single. To ease her concerns, Remy has expressed his willingness to become her son-in-law.
The elders of the Johnson family are open-minded, and Old Mr. Jimenez is aware that they are related to the old miracle doctor.
Although Old Mr. Jimenez has never attended the weddings of the younger generations, he always keeps an eye on their marital lives.
Audrey mentioned, “Liberty has feelings for Duncan, the fourth son of the Lewis family. The Lewis family has four sons. Once Liberty truly takes the reins of the Farrell family, I believe the Lewis family would not object to Duncan visiting.”
Old Mr. Jimenez turned his head to look at Audrey and remarked, “It would be wise to gauge the fourth son of the Lewis family’s stance on this matter and see how the Lewis family feels overall.”
If Clarissa’s husband truly visited Farrell’s home, we outsiders could easily discern his thoughts over the decades. The Lewis family is also quite affluent, and their wealth may even surpass that of the Farrell family.
Do Duncan’s parents approve? If Liberty and Duncan end up together, their daughter will have the surname Farrell, and Liberty will need to revert to her maiden name as well. Are they both in agreement? Ms. Audrey, I understand your desire to prepare Miss Liberty, but it’s essential to consider the younger generation’s opinions and whether they genuinely wish to take on this responsibility.
Clarissa holds significant power, yet she faces numerous constraints. Assuming the role of head of the family will involve many aspects beyond her control.
After a brief silence, Audrey responded, “I will call Liberty later for a thorough discussion. I think it’s acceptable for Liberty to change her surname. As for Duncan, I plan to invite Mrs. Lewis out for coffee tomorrow.”
She represented Liberty’s family elders. Since Mrs. Lewis is one of them, having a conversation with her would be beneficial.
This approach aims to prevent issues that might arise while they are attempting to do something positive. Initially, Mrs. Lewis did not accept Liberty. If it weren’t for Duncan’s insistence—despite his car accident due to their argument, which has left him in a wheelchair—Mrs. Lewis would likely still reject Liberty.
From a mother’s standpoint, Audrey empathized with Mrs. Lewis. However, as Liberty’s biological aunt, her selfish desire was simply for her niece’s happiness. She hoped Mrs. Lewis would not come between the couple again.
Old Mr. Jimenez hummed in response.
The downstairs was crowded with people.
Everyone was chatting and laughing, creating a lively atmosphere.
Serenity and the others had grown familiar with Bianca.
When Serenity asked Bianca for her real name, she chose not to reveal it.
Respecting her silence, Serenity and the others tactfully ceased their inquiries.
It was clear that everyone had their own secrets.
Bianca might simply not want anyone to know her true name. She also mentioned that she would only be in Wiltspoon for two days, and after her master and the others departed, she intended to leave as well, claiming she was not from Wiltspoon.
