Everyone except Laura’s family was present among the Shawn family members. 

But Laura said she couldn’t make it! 

Just as everyone was curious, a pair of white pointed heels. stepped through the doorway. 

The next second, Lucy appeared in everyone’s sight, carrying at box. 

“Sorry, I seem to be a bit late.” 

The moment Admas saw Lucy, his face fell. 

Cathy, on the other hand, lit up. She gave Chloe a provocative look before immediately getting up and welcoming Lucy. 

“Lucy, you’re finally here! Come sit down, we’re giving Grandpa. his presents!” 

Michael had been dealing with work in his study upstairs. Now that he came down, he had eye contact with Lucy.

The moment she saw Michael, her eyes lit up. “Yes, I know it’s Sir Shawn’s birthday. I specially prepared a gift, I hope Sir Shawn will like it too.” 

Chloe twitched the corners of her mouth, sat on the sofa, and turned her face away. 

Cathy looked at Chloe with a smug look and snorted softly. 

“Well, I know right! As soon as Lucy arrives, this Chloe will definitely make a fool of herself!” Cathy thought. 

Admas glared and rapped his cane on the ground forcefully. 

“Didn’t you see your wife sitting here?” 

Michael turned his head and brushed past Lucy. 

He had just argued with Chloe, and now he also wanted to take advantage of Admas’s birthday to reconcile with her. 

Chloe felt him sit down next to her and subconsciously shifted her position, putting some distance between them. 

Michael’s body stiffened, feeling her resistance. 

But he still pretended not to understand and leaned in again, sitting tightly beside her. 

“Honey, have we given Grandpa our gift yet?”

Chloe felt a bit disgusted, but considering that there were many people around and Admas was still there, she couldn’t directly refuse him, so she could only shake her head. “Not yet.” 

“Then let’s take it out now!” 

Chloe went behind the sofa and handed the painting she bought to Admas. 

“Grandpa, I know you’ve always been interested in this painting, and this painter happened to be here for an exhibition, so I bought this painting.” 

In fact, as long as it was something Chloe gave, Admas would never let her be embarrassed, even if he was just humoring her. 

But Chloe’s gift this time really hit his heart. 

“Chloe, how did you know I liked this painting?” 

Admas’s eyes sparkled with delight. He had known all along that Chloe was the best. 

“I noticed you have quite a collection of this artist’s paintings in your study. Michael mentioned it to me as well.” 

Chloe, always gracious, gave Michael some credit for the gift. 

“Hang this painting in the living room!” Admas instructed excitedly. 

He immediately ordered the painting to be displayed in the most

Cathy, witnessing Admas’s blatant favoritism towards Chloe, felt a twinge of unease. 

But she had already given her gift, and now she could only pin her hopes on Lucy. 

Grandpa, she reminded, “Lucy also gave you a gift. It’s a painting too!”
