Chapter 739
Joshua’s birthday banquet was a great event. All the famous families, companies, and celebrities in Capitolas, the whole country, and even the world were present at the banquet with expensive gifts.
Olivia was abroad. Although she did not come personally, she had got someone to send the congratulatory gift.
Seeing the gifts being presented, the guests were amazed.
The gifts were way too expensive! They were too precious for words.
These gifts from the outsiders were presented to Joshua at the banquet hall. Joshua only took a glance before the gifts were directly stored.
Joshua would only look at gifts from close relatives.
After the Phil family finished giving gifts, it was Ian’s turn.
Malcolm chuckled. “It seems Dad doesn’t like the gifts we give. I don’t see Dad showing much interest in them. Ian, it’s all up to you. Dad dotes on you the most. The gifts you give will suit him the most.”
“That’s right.” Salena chimed in. “In the past, I was the apple of Grandpa’s eye. Now Grandpa has changed and doesn’t even look at me.”
Joshua glared at her. “Hmph, you are one to talk! No matter how many gifts you give, they can’t compare to Nina.
“Let Nina come back to see me. No one can replace your place in my heart then.”
When she heard Nina’s name, Salena’s expression looked slightly unnatural. She lowered her head and said nothing.
Joshua was in a good mood and did not want to make things unpleasant. Seeing this, he changed the topic and turned to Ian with a smile.
Everyone’s gaze also shifted to Ian.
They were all waiting for his gift.
As the center of attention, Ian did not panic at all. His expression was calm. Facing everyone’s expectations, he said lazily, “Grandpa, you love paintings and ancient things, so I’ve got more. Grandpa, please take your time to appreciate them.”
“It must be something good.” Orson chuckled. “Dad, Ian is rich. You must take a good look. If it’s something bad, return them and let him get you some new ones.”
Orson’s amusing words made everyone laugh.
lan raised his hand, and someone immediately presented an antique crown.
Everyone’s eyes lit up. It was the crown the queen of Rodowa wore when she ascended the throne three years ago. It was priceless.
