My Child and I Married a Billionaire novel Chapter 95

Chapter 95: Chapter 95: Returning to Her Maiden Home

Damien Vaughn went to the garden to tell his grandfather that he and Cecelia Archer were going to her brother’s place. His grandfather immediately came back inside with Candy.

"It’s good you’re going to his home. You should. And you must bring some things for your brother. I have two top-quality ginseng roots, some white truffles, and some Maotai. Does he smoke? My health hasn’t been great this year, so the children won’t let me smoke anymore. I still have a few cartons of Zhonghua cigarettes. Take all of it to him."

Just buying her brother some supplements would have been enough; there was no need for so many things. Cecelia Archer felt embarrassed.

"No, no, Grandpa. We can buy things ourselves."

"We’re all family, so why the formality? He’s your only living relative. You must take something nice back with you. Go on, go on! King, quickly pack these things for them."

Ms. King packed up a huge pile of gifts from the old master’s house. The old master personally walked them to the car, and Cecelia Archer was so embarrassed she didn’t know where to look.

’I received such an expensive gift from him this morning, and now I’m taking even more...’

Damien Vaughn, however, reacted calmly. "If he tells you to take them, just take them. It’s my first time visiting, so I can’t show up looking cheap, can I?"

Damien Vaughn drove himself, and the three of them headed to her brother’s home.

Cecelia Archer had sent a message ahead of time, so her brother was waiting at the community entrance.

He was stunned when he saw a Maybach pull up. Then, when Cecelia Archer got out with Candy, he was truly shocked.

"This is your car?"

Before Cecelia Archer could say anything, Damien Vaughn got out as well.

’Tall and long-legged, elegantly dressed, with an extraordinary air about him...’ Compared to a lame, world-weary guy like himself, the brother instantly felt inadequate.

"Hello, brother," Damien said. "I’m Damien Vaughn. My apologies for only coming to visit you now."

Damien Vaughn extended a hand toward him.

The hand was broad and clean, with well-defined knuckles. The brother thought Damien looked vaguely familiar and started to shake his hand, but he stopped halfway. Seeing how rough, dry, and sallow his own hand was, he sheepishly pulled it back.

"Hello, hello! My name is June Archer. Welcome to our home. Please, come on in."

Damien Vaughn understood his awkwardness and insecurity. He didn’t take offense and simply withdrew his hand.

"Alright. You head up first, we just need to grab a few things."

With that, he went to open the trunk.

’They brought gifts?’

The brother couldn’t just let him carry everything alone, so he hurried over to help.

But when he saw the gifts in the trunk, he felt even more awkward.

Maotai, Zhonghua cigarettes, and other expensive-looking packages with names he didn’t recognize... This was...

With Damien Vaughn right there, he couldn’t very well ask Cecelia where she had met such a wealthy man. One after another, the group headed upstairs.

When they reached the apartment door, the brother, embarrassed, spoke to Damien Vaughn first.

"We’re renovating right now. We figured since we own the place, we wouldn’t bother renting somewhere else to stay. It’s a real mess inside, so please don’t mind."

Damien Vaughn was mentally prepared and didn’t seem to mind at all.

The door opened to reveal his sister-in-law already preparing food. Hearing voices, she rushed out of the kitchen.

Her face bloomed into a wide smile when she saw them carrying so many gifts.

"Cecelia, you’re back! And brother-in-law, you’re here too! You should have just come, why bring all these things? Quick, have a seat. I’ll make you some tea."

"You must be tired. You all hurry and rest, I’ll go make you something delicious. I knew you were coming, so I went out and bought a ton of groceries. I even got beef and lamb. Today, our family is going to have a proper feast!"
