Before taking action, Bryson had investigated the Hills’ background.
The Hills had a lot of students involved in various fields, with the most influential one being the City Police Department Chief. They also had many family members within the military, police force, and government departments. However, none of them had very high ranks in these fields.
Meanwhile, his boss was in a position of high authority and the second most powerful person in North Cansington.
The Hills’ villa courtyard.
Most of the core family members had arrived.
Yitzchak and the old lady of the house sat in front.
The banquet had not begun yet.
According to the Hills’ customs, the banquet would only begin after the younger generations presented their gifts.
Cyrus stepped forward and took out the gift he had prepared in advance.
“Grandma, I know you’ve been paying attention to your health recently. I specifically made a trip to Cansington and bought these health supplements at a sky-high price.”
“Wow, is this a formula personally prescribed by Dr. Fallon?
The old lady was dressed in a red festive dress. Although she was eighty years old, she lived a very healthy life and looked full of energy. She was surprised when she heard that the health supplements were from Dr. Fallon himself.
“Yeah, it cost me more than a hundred million dollars,” Cyrus said with a smile.
In truth, these health supplements were not personally prescribed by the genius doctor but by an old doctor.
Jay Fallon’s appointments had been fully booked for many years in advance.
It was impossible for him to get an appointment. Thus, he sought out a well-known doctor, gave him the old lady’s recent body diagnosis report, and prescribed some health supplements for her.
“As expected from Cyrus. You’ve even met Dr. Fallon in person.
“I heard it isn’t easy to schedule an appointment with the genius doctor. Many rich people have tried booking with him but had to wait several years. Some didn’t even live long enough to see him once.”
“Cyrus sure is capable!”
“Rigoberto has a great son!”
The family members began to praise him.
The old lady smiled broadly and praised him, saying, “You’re an amazing grandson, Cyrus. Thank you for the gift.”
“Grandma, no matter how much money is spent, it’s worth it as long as you’re happy!”
“Grandpa, I’ve brought you a famous painting.”
Another grandson presented his gift.
The old lady’s smile instantly froze, but she still nodded to acknowledge him.
Following after, the rest of the Hills’ youngsters presented their birthday gifts.
Apart from Cyrus’ valuable gift, the other gifts were too common. The old lady slightly nodded when they were presented to her.
Thea smiled and presented her gift. “Grandma, I’ve also prepared a gift for you. This is thousand-year-old ginseng. It’s Herbal Biotech's most precious treasure.”
With that said, Thea instructed James to open the box.
