Chapter 769
Serenity responded, “When are we going to your family home? I bought gifts for your family. We can go in the afternoon or
tomorrow, so the stuff can stay in the car. Otherwise, we’d be moving them up and down.”
After much thought, Zachary said, “We’ll go tomorrow morning. I feel a bit tired since I just got back today. I should get some
rest.”
The couple had been apart for three days, and he missed her so. He wanted to spend some alone time with Serenity before
heading to the old residence.
“I’ll leave the stuff in the car then.”
“Alright.”
Zachary had no issue with that, but he still reiterated, “Text me when you reach the neighborhood.”
“Got it.”
Serenity then asked, “If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up now. I’m driving.”
Zachary would see her soon since Serenity was on her way home. Hence, he said, ” Alright. Drive safe.”
“Sure.” Serenity then disconnected the call.
“Liberty, Zachary proposed to leave for his family house tomorrow. You and Sonny should come along. I think Nana and the
others won’t mind. I’m not comfortable with you spending the holidays by yourselves.”
Liberty replied with a smile, “Why feel that way? I’m not a child. I can’t go with you to your in–laws‘ place.”
“Of course, you can. I married Zachary, so Zachary’s home is my home. Is it wrong for my sister to spend the holidays at my
place? I was always at your place during the holidays and even lived with you.”
“It’s fine. Sonny and I will have a calm and quiet celebration, unlike the previous years when I had to prepare gifts for my in–laws.
I got called out for being reckless with money if I gave too much and being arrogant if I gave too little. I got told off no matter what
I did.”

Seeing that her sister’s mind was set, Serenity said, “You can visit our aunt if you’re bored. Jasmine’s place is an option too.”
“Aunt Audrey...”
Liberty was about to say something when Mrs. Stone’s call came in.
She said to her sister, “Speak of the devil.”
Liberty accepted Mrs. Stone’s incoming call.
“Aunt Audrey.”
“Are you out, Liberty? It sounds pretty noisy there.”
“Yeah. I went shopping with Seren. Seren’s going with Zachary to his family home tomorrow, so she got gifts ready for her in–
laws.”
Since the stores were closed on Christmas Eve, the shopping should be done in advance.
Mrs. Stone stayed quiet on the other end of the line before uttering, “I called to let you know that the family is traveling over the
holidays. We won’t be in Wiltspoon. Don’t come over, or you’ll miss us.”
“Oh, okay.” Liberty asked, “Where are you traveling to, Aunt Audrey?”
“We’re going to visit a few cities. We’d probably be back after New Year’s break. Clive is heading back two days before the office
reopens.”
“When are you leaving?”
“In a bit.”
Liberty answered, “Alright, Aunt Audrey. I hope you have a great holiday.” “Thank you. Where’s Seren?”
