Promising Son-in-Law novel Chapter 6

The old Mr. Lee looked at Eric and said, "open the gift."

He wanted to know who sent it?

Eric nodded and opened the brocade box in his hand. The gift was displayed in front of everyone.

People were stunned.

It was a pearl which size was as big as a bowl.

Night-luminescent pearl!

The natural night pearl was very valuable, let alone such a big one!

The old Mr. Lee usually loved jades and other things. He also had a research on the night pearl. He just looked at it and was stunned.

This was definitely a natural night pearl, with an estimated value of ten million dollars to 100 million.

"Turn off the lights and close the doors and windows." The old Mr. Lee said excitedly.

Everyone immediately took actions to turn off all the lights and draw the curtains.

When the room was dark, the whole living room lit up in an instant.

The soft light of the night pearl was on every face. They had an expression of surprise and envy.

"Grandfather, the pearl is so bright. It must be valuable." Fox praised, "it must be someone who specially gave it to our family as a congratulatory gift."

The old Mr. Lee smiled happily. This valuable family gift was enough to show his status.

Of course, it also showed that Doris's parents can't afford this gift. They can’t buy a gift that was 100000 dollars, let alone the gift which was more than ten million dollars!

Who sent it?

At this time, housekeeper Eric found that there was a card under the night pearl. He immediately took it out and asked people to turn on the light and draw the curtain.

"I'm really sorry that I couldn't come to the annual family meeting to celebrate your birthday because of the busy business recently. I'll give you a small gift to express my feelings. I'll visit the old Mr. Lee and your daughter-in-law in person next time."

Who was this one?

Who was the daughter-in-law?

At this time, a young man in his twenties came to the door.

"It turned out to be the annual meeting of Lee family. I wish Lee family would be more and more prosperous in the future."

When people saw him, they seemed to understand.

The old Mr. Lee also understood, and then said with a smile, "Mr. Martin! Please sit down."

Mr. Martin was a very outstanding child of Marin family in Tianbei noble family. The old Mr. Martin liked him very much. He was likely to be in charge of Marin family in the future.

Mr. Martin laughed and came over.

Fox came to Mr. Martin quickly and said with a smile, "We are happy to see you come. You should not send this valuable gift."

"Well?" Mr. Martin was puzzled for a moment. He saw the brocade box on the table and was shocked immediately.

Was this the night pearl?

No wonder he saw that lights of the living room was turned off just now. He thought there was no one in their house!

He would have gone back if he hadn't seen the lights were on again.

He also knew something about the night pearl. It must be more than ten million dollars. Who sent it?

Fox, aware of Mr. Martin's shock, asked carefully, "isn't it sent by Mr. Martin?"

Mr. Martin became calm and laughed."I don't know. Maybe it was sent by my father. I mentioned to my father that today was the annual meeting of Lee family before I went out today."

With that, everyone was misled. They were jealous and thought Martin family was a noble family.

The housekeeper took Mr. Martin to his seat.

Mr. Martin was the third in this generation. His name was Barr. He was liked by the old Mr. Martin.

When Barr came in, he always peeped at Doris. Now he was even sitting next to Doris.

Doris frowned and did not intend to pay attention to Barr.
