In the evening, Emelia accompanied Vincent and Naomi to the old house of the Longerich family to attend the banquet. The Longerich family was a great family, and the scene was very grand.
Perhaps it was because as Vincent said, he had introduced her to his family in advance, so everyone was very friendly to Emelia. Emelia's tension was eased a lot.
What she didn't know was that Vincent also told them about her real identity. Everyone was happy for Vincent and felt sorry for Emelia, who had been out for so many years.
The old Mrs. Longerich held Emelia's hand and kept crying. Even though Emelia did not understand why the Longerich family was so excited when they saw her, she was willing to think it as their kindness.
The old Mrs. Longerich even insisted on giving her a set of emerald jewelry, from earrings to necklaces and rings.
At a glance at the color of the jade, she knew that it was priceless. How could she dare to accept it?
However, the old lady and the people around her persuaded her to accept it. Emelia was too kind to refuse, so she had to take it first. She thought that she would put it in Vincent and Naomi's place and let them keep it for her.
Vincent and Naomi also prepared a gift for her. It was a house in Riverside City, so she did not need to rent a house.
Emelia was so surprised that she couldn't speak. Naomi said to her in a gentle voice, "You live alone in Riverside City. Only by having your own home can you have a sense of belonging and a sense of security."
Vincent continued, "We heard that your best friend, Nina, lives here, so we also bought you one. In this way, you can get close to her, and the two of you can take care of each other."
Emelia's eyes instantly turned red. Vincent and Naomi's meticulous and thoughtful care made her feel moved.
She didn't need much requirement, but considering that they had arranged her and her best friend together, she was touched by the softest part in her heart.
In the past, Oliver's parents, who were Emelia's so-called grandparents, were not good to her at all.
At first, they didn't know that she was not Oliver's biological daughter. Because she was a girl, they despised her all the time. Later, when they knew that she was not his biological daughter, their rejection and disgust for her became even worse.
She was not even allowed to pay a New Year's visit to their house. She was sad, especially every time Taylor came back from their grandparents' house, he would show off a thick envelop of pocket money and all kinds of snacks and candies their grandparents gave him.
She had also secretly hidden herself and cried for many times. She had also asked her adoptive mother in frustration why her grandparents didn't like her. What kind of answer could she get for such a question? In the end, her adoptive mother could only hold her in her arms and cry.
But at this moment, facing the love and kindness of everyone in the Longerich family, Emelia felt that the misfortune of the past had been crossed off the book.
Mrs. Longerich held her in her arms with red eyes and said lovingly, "Good girl, you have suffered for so many years. Don't worry, you will have good days in the future."
The old lady's words were not exaggerated at all, because the whole Longerich family wanted to give her the whole world.
Vincent was the youngest child of her, so Emelia was naturally the youngest among the younger generation. There were a lot of brothers and sisters who gave her many gifts, such as limited-edition bags, jewelry, etc. Emelia received so many gifts.
She was also very embarrassed to have no gifts for them. One of the older sisters who ran fashion brands said to her with a smile, "Your arrival is the best gift for us."
The elder sister also handed her a card. "This card is for you. From now on, I will pay all your clothes all year round."
Looking at the LOGO on the card, Emelia couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise. Nina was the brand spokesperson of the brand. A few days ago, Nina had been filming for this brand. She didn't expect it to be run by the Longerich family.
The elder sister seemed to have seen through Emelia's thoughts and said with a chuckle, "Yes, it's your good friend's endorsement brand."
"What a coincidence." Emelia smiled and took the card. "Thank you."
