Chapter 815 - 814: Also Called "Ning
This uncanny familiarity made Serena Sullivan uncomfortable, it’s also because of this relationship that she became more cautious around Mrs. Kane and Miss Monroe.
During this time, Mrs. Kane repeatedly interacted with her, always giving the impression of hiding a big secret.
"Mrs. Grant, I’d like to request you to customize a set of jewelry for my niece, price is not an issue."
Mrs. Kane said to Serena with a smile, "I know there have been some unpleasantness between The Ford Family and The Sterling Family before, but those are past matters, we..."
Deeply afraid Serena would disagree, Mrs. Kane came up with numerous explanations beforehand.
"Okay."
Serena agreed immediately. Mrs. Kane pleased both her and The Sterling Family, Serena wouldn’t tear the facade apart, plus with Wendy Monroe and Miss Monroe making a splash at several events recently, it would surely boost her studio’s reputation.
Serena is a businesswoman, matters of enmity can be set aside during business dealings.
"Oh!"
Mrs. Kane didn’t expect Serena to agree so readily. She smiled and reached out to Miss Monroe beside her, saying, "Nina, tell Mrs. Grant about the style you like!"
Nina?
Nina Monroe!
Serena knew Mrs. Kane was introducing Miss Monroe, but hadn’t paid attention to her name. Knowing that Miss Monroe’s name was Nina, she felt somewhat strange.
This "Nina" sounded quite similar to her own name, was it a coincidence or?
"Hello, Mrs. Grant."
Nina Monroe stepped forward, smiling to greet Serena.
"I prefer more elegant and understated jewelry. Do you have any samples here?"
Nina continued, "I’ve seen Mrs. Grant’s designs before, and I like them very much."
Serena knew that Nina was Wendy Monroe’s brother’s daughter, raised in the Imperial Capital, but The Ford Family didn’t have much regard for Wendy’s husband, definitely not fond of her brother’s family.
Looking at Miss Monroe now, regardless of her demeanor or conduct, she exuded an elegance typical of a high-society lady.
Just like Felicity Sterling, they were both clearly meticulously groomed.
Moreover, Nina was taught to be more generous and composed.
It wasn’t hard to see who had taught her; clearly it was Mrs. Kane.
"Let me add Mrs. Grant on WeChat for easier contact."
Nina took out her phone and said, Serena did not refuse.
Although she didn’t like the mysterious and resilient Mrs. Kane, this Nina was surprisingly likable.
Looking at her, Nina was indeed raised with delicacy.
A niece being so thoroughly groomed by Mrs. Kane, yet her own son—Wayne Jennings, was utterly spoiled.
"Mrs. Grant, please handle Nina’s birthday gift."
Mrs. Kane said with a smile, "Previously unable to give her a proper birthday party, now there’s finally a chance to make it up to her."
This statement felt odd to Serena. She scrutinized Mrs. Kane and Nina again, indeed they looked so alike, one could easily believe them to be mother and daughter.
Though in truth, aunt and niece generally resemble each other.
"I heard a few days ago, Mrs. Grant almost got hit by a car." Mrs. Kane asked with a laugh.
After being here for quite some time, they finally began to steer the conversation onto the main topic.
"Yes."
Serena nodded as she watched Mrs. Kane’s smiling face.
Mrs. Kane surely knew who tried to hit her.
"Has the person been caught? It’s truly outrageous to dare to hit you directly on the street, such people should spend a lifetime in jail."
Mrs. Kane seemed very concerned about Serena, but her target was actually Felicity Sterling.
Serena looked at Mrs. Kane’s smiling face, she chose not to respond, instead asking about another matter.
