Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 159

Ian raised his eyebrow.

“Why are you accepting these? Daddy has all of them!”

“I know. I’m just joking with them. I’ll give them all to Grandpa soon. Don’t worry.”

Matteo patted his brother’s shoulder and assured him that he was just acting. He was not actually going to accept their presents.

Ian was happy to hear that.

Although they had no intention of accepting the presents, they were shocked to see one of the great-uncles carry an embroidered box over.

“Fredrick, I did not expect that our family would have another heir. I’m going to give your grandson the gold pendant you gave me.”

With tears in his eyes, he handed Matteo the embroidered box.

Matteo was confused.

What’s happening?

Why did they suddenly give me this?

Ian nodded. “I have one too.”

Matteo was stunned.

Is that so?

Matteo did not know that because of the Hayes family’s immense wealth, they had always been conscious of heritage. Their heir could only be someone of the purest bloodline.

Anyone else did not stand a chance.

Frederick’s bloodline was pure. Thus, Sebastian was the one who inherited Hayes Corporation.

It was a pity that although Sebastian had Ian, Ian’s physical condition had always been weak. There had been no motion for Sebastian to get remarried.

Hence, Frederick had given one of the gold pendants to his brother.

However, there was Matt now…

Frederick nodded. “Matt, you should accept it. It’s rightfully yours.”

Without hesitation, he told Matteo to accept this gift he had personally given away.

Matteo was only a child. He did not overthink things.

Since his grandfather told him to accept it, Matteo did just that.

Matteo happily slipped the gold pendant around his neck. The brothers went with their grandfather into the dining room for lunch.

As for the great-uncle, he continued to smile while everyone else was still present.

When they all left and the area was quiet, the smile completely dissipated.

The smile was replaced with an absolutely devious expression.

How persistent.

There’s even a healthy one now!
