Chapter 881
Under the cold gaze of Mr. Jones and Dillon, she swallowed her pride. “Addy, I‘m very sorry.” (That is quite alright. I will not take it to heart,” said Adina, waving her hand generously.
“I still have too many things to deal with, so l‘ll leave first.” She turned around on her high heels and left the study.
Dillon chased after her. “Addy, won‘t you stay for at least a meal?”
“I already ate dinner. In fact, I rushed here right after finishing my meal. It hasn‘t even had time to digest yet.” Adina smiled at her father.
“Dad, you don‘t need to see me out. I can go.”
Dillon took two more steps forward as he did not want to part with his daughter. Although he had reunited with her, he didn‘t get too many chances to actually spend time with her. He had never had the chance to shower her with fatherly affection.
“Addy, please wait a minute,” said Dillon.
“I bought something for you. Take it back with you.” Adina wanted to refuse politely. But Dillon had already gone to his room. He returned carrying several big bags.
“Here are a few dresses. I chose them myself,” he said.
“I think they will suit you very well. These bags here have jewelry made of jadeite. Your mother liked them a lot. I thought maybe you would like them, too.”
He did not know what to give as a gift to his twenty–something daughter. He had never had the time to get to know her properly. So, he bought her clothes, jewelry, and skin care products that he thought most people liked.
