Matthew smiled, but it was obvious that he was unwilling to say anything.
Valerie tsked and said, "It's fine if you don't want to tell me!"
Valerie pretended to be angry, but she was still looking forward to whatever Matthew was planning. What exactly was this guy up to?
It was the weekend three days later. Valerie did not need to work as the production crew had one day off. Hence, on this day, Matthew brought Valerie back to the Grant Manor.
Charles and the others helped to move their luggage over. The Grant Manor was crowded and bustling with activity. Leon and the servants had already completed all the preparations before Matthew and Valerie's arrival.
Valerie had officially moved into the Grant Manor. Sophia and Nolan thoughtfully sent many items and gifts from various other families.
When Valerie went over, she was a little surprised. When she saw the house filled with large and small packages, she was stunned and said, "Isn't this a bit excessive?"
Matthew laughed. "They know that you're moving in, so treat all these as housewarming gifts."
"How can I accept all these?" Valerie asked.
Previously, she had already received a gift bag at the family banquet. Valerie felt a little uneasy about accepting their gifts once again.
Matthew could tell that she was feeling uneasy. "If you feel that it's inappropriate, you can buy them a gift in return or treat them to a meal," he suggested.
Valerie thought about it and realized that would be the best approach.
Since most of the relatives were here, naturally Fred and his family were here too, trying to curry favor with Sophia.
Fred was not willing to come. It was finally the weekend, and he would have preferred to go out and hang out with some girls. However, Carrie insisted that he come and make a good impression because he had upset Matthew and Sophia last time. She insisted that he come and make a good impression on Sophia. At the very least, showing up was akin to showing respect to Sophia.
Carrie wanted to come too, but she caught a cold.
Valerie remembered that Carrie's brooch was with her. She originally planned to return the brooch to Carrie when she saw Carrie today. However, Carrie was absent from this gathering. Valerie did not know when would be the next time she saw Carrie.
Hence, Valerie found Lincoln and handed the brooch to him.
"Oh, I recognize this brooch. Rest assured, I will bring this back to her," Lincoln said.
Valerie originally wanted to continue speaking, but it seemed that Lincoln recognized this brooch because of how much Carrie cherished this. When she saw Lincoln casually placing the brooch into his pocket, Valerie was at a loss for words. She felt that there was something strange about him, but she could not pinpoint what it was.
