Chapter 188: Hostility Towards Her 

Charlotte fixed her eyes on it. It was a credit black card that was limited globally. 

The money on it was immeasurable. 

“Grandpa?” Her eyes looked at old Mr. Foster with a complicated expression. 

It was not appropriate to give so much money at the first meeting, was it? 

“What? Are you not satisfied?” old Mr. Foster smiled at her and asked this deliberately. 

Charlotte shook her head. 

“Then take it well. This is what grandpa gave you,” old Mr. Foster said in a friendly tone. 

She then stopped talking and put the black card in her pocket. 

This black card, of course, made the others present incomparably surprised. 

Especially Calvin, whose eyes were wide open as he looked at the black card. 

His eyes were red. 

“Grandpa, you gave her such a welcome gift. How come my Cecilia doesn’t have one?” He furrowed his brow, looking a bit annoyed. 

Grandpa hadn’t been so generous when he first met Cecilia. 

It made him a bit mentally unbalanced. 

Originally, he was still quite afraid of old Mr. Foster, but at this moment- 

Calvin just wanted to give Cecilia an explanation. 

The moment these words came out, the atmosphere became tense for a few moments. 

Cecilia couldn’t help but tug at Calvin’s sleeve, frowning and shaking her head, “Why are you saying that?” 

Old Mr. Foster sniffed and turned his head to look at them. 

The old master’s brows and eyes suddenly turned cold, and his tone was cold as well, “Cecilia… She hasn’t officially married into the family yet. When you get married, of course, I’ll give her a better welcome gift.” 

When Calvin and Cecilia heard this, they both showed a defeated expression. 

They covered their mouths and were suddenly speechless. 

That’s right. 

Cecilia was just Calvin’s girlfriend, and they weren’t married yet. 

It was not that he did not want to marry her. He couldn’t wait to marry her sooner. 

The problem was with Cecilia. 

She would never agree to marry Calvin. 

Later, at his insistence, she moved into the Fosters‘ house, and they had a trial marriage. 

The so–called trial marriage was just living together before the wedding. 

The two of them lived together first to get used to it, to see if they were suitable or not. 

Therefore, although Cecilia was living with the Foster family, she was not yet a legitimate daughter–in–law.

“All right, everyone better hurry up and sit down or the food will get cold.” At that moment, Sophia, who had been silent all this time, spoke up in a cheerful tone, urging everyone to hurry up and start eating. 

“Just listen to Sophia.” When old Mr. Foster heard this, the indifference in his eyes slowly disappeared and was replaced by a few smiles. 

He hurriedly greeted Charlotte and Laura as they sat down. 

Max sat next to the old master. 

Charlotte, on the other hand, sat next to Max. 

The birthday dinner was about to begin. 

But before the meal, everyone took out their birthday gifts for the old man. 

were all carefully chosen gifts, some gave antiques, some gave health products, and some gave old Mr. Foster’s favorite books… 

Max had also prepared a birthday gift for old Mr. Foster. 

It was a brush that looked quite exquisite. 

Old Mr. Foster loved calligraphy. It was something the whole family knew. 

So, for Max to give him a brush was also considered a good choice. 

“I like this brush a lot.” When old Mr. Foster saw the gift he had given him, he immediately smiled from ear to ear. 

It had been like that since he was a child. This grandson had always known his heart best… 

Unfortunately… 

As he thought about it, his eyes couldn’t help but darken for a moment. 

This darkening passed in an instant, and he was still smiling, looking at Max with an increasingly loving gaze. 

“Grandpa, I’m glad you like it.” 

Max looked back at him with a faint expression, his whole body looking unusually calm. 

As old Mr. Foster watched, his heart felt like it had been stabbed. 

Max… 

It was he, the old man, who was sorry for Max. 

He forced himself to suppress the pain in his heart and continued to open the gifts. 

In the end, only Cecilia and Charlotte were left without their own birthday gifts. 

Cecilia unconsciously glanced at Charlotte and saw that she was about to take out her gift. 

She stood up quickly and handed her long–prepared gift to old Mr. Foster and said with a big smile, “Grandpa, this is my gift to you. I wish you good 

health and all the best.” 

She had deliberately jumped ahead of Charlotte. 

She had put a lot of thought into this gift. 

It would definitely impress the old man later. 

With this gift in front of her, whatever Charlotte would give later would pale in comparison. 

She wanted to steal the spotlight first and leave her with no way out. 

A big reason why she did this was…

the really did not like her and even harbored animosity towards her. 

On what grounds could she marry Maz? On what grounds could she be protected by him? 

That’s right, Cecilia was jealous. 

As soon as she saw Charlotte next to Max, she was so jealous that she almost went crazy, 

Although she did not show it on her face, there was a lot of sourness in her heart. 

She hated Charlotte, 

This kind of hatred came very quickly, 

p though she had only met her for the first time today, she could no longer contain her hostility towards her.
