Chapter 85
The bell rang loudly, pulling Jalen back from his thoughts.
Seeing that it was a call from Nitzan, he answered it without hesitation. Nitzan said on the other side of the line, “My birthday’s 3 days away. What gift are you going to give me?”
“Grandpa, how can you ask what your gift is?” Jalen was speechless.
“Why can’t I ask? What if I don’t like your gift?” Nitzan held the phone in one hand and his beard in the other, smiling.
Jalen thought of the painting that he bought earlier in an auction and said, “I guarantee that will like it.”

“You guarantee my ass. I only want one gift for this birthday,” Nitzan said.
“What is it?” Jalen was much more patient when facing his grandfather. He thought it was better if Nitzan had a request.
“Bring Ella to my birthday party,” Nitzan said.
Jalen frowned. After a while, he said, “If you want her at the party, it would be better that you call her personally.”
“I want you to bring her there.” Nitzan knew that Elaina would not refuse him if he called her personally, but he wanted to create an opportunity for Jalen and Elaina. Of course, he had to let Jalen think of a way himself.
But in Jalen’s view, Elaina might go if it was Nitzan who called her, and Elaina would absolutely turn it down if Jalen invited her.
Jalen did not answer, and Nitzan was furious. “You brat, I only have one thing to ask and you can’t do this for me? Are you trying to make me die of anger?”
“Grandfather…”
“No matter how much you hate her, you must personally invite her to my birthday party,” Nitzan interrupted Jalen.
