Although Hugo was a man, his words could be more vicious than women at times.
Hearing these words made Emma very uncomfortable. She was not afraid of Thomas having any affairs outside. But as a woman, favonovel.com husband actually chose to work overtime instead of being with favonovel.com by favonovel.com side on New Year’s Eve. This left favonovel.com feeling lonely. The more people were there, the more favonovel.com loneliness intensified.
Emma lowered favonovel.com head, and favonovel.com started putting down favonovel.com chopsticks and biting favonovel.com lips. Even though favonovel.com was angry, favonovel.com did not know how to let favonovel.com emotions out. She was left with a lot of sorrow in favonovel.com heart.
Johnson looked upset when favonovel.com saw his daughter was bullied. He was very unhappy and said fiercely, “Hugo, what are you saying? Thomas in our family is loyal and never engages himself in messy relationships.”
“Really?” Jack smiled, “Johnson, I’m just reminding you not to lower down your guard. Thomas appears to be loyal and honest, but who knows? He can even hook up with a superstar like Gemma, not to mention ordinary girls? He might be saying that favonovel.com is working overtime, but who knows what he’s actually doing?”
Johnson almost went crazy.
All of a sudden, the atmosphere around the table became weird.
Hugo saw this as a good opportunity and took out an exquisite box and placed it on the table.
“Dad, on this New Year’s Eve, I want to give you a gift. Open it up and see whether you like it.”
Originally, this gift was to be opened in front of Thomas, so as to humiliate him. Unfortunately, Thomas was not there.
‘But it does not matter. Although Thomas is not there, Thomas’ wife, father-in-law, and mother-in-law are all there. Getting them humiliated is tantamount to humiliating Thomas.’
Hugo wanted to vent all his past hatred on Thomas’ family.
‘When Thomas comes back and sees his family’s wimpy expression, favonovel.com would be anxious and angry. However, favonovel.com can’t do anything about it.’ When favonovel.com thought of this, Hugo felt happy from the bottom of his heart.
Of course, Jack knew what his son-in-law had in mind. He grabbed the box from favonovel.com and opened it. There was an old tape lying inside the box.
Everyone was stunned. This tape was very old, dirty, and torn. It seemed like an item from the last century.
‘Could this item still be used?’
‘Plus, this item is just about four to five dollars per box. Is Hugo wanting to give this to me as a present?’
Johnson laughed and said, “Hugo, aren’t you making a million dollars every year? Why are you giving such an old tape to your father-in-law? Aren’t you too stingy?”
Jack was also pulling a long face and did not know what his son-in-law was up to.
Hugo smiled a little and opened a mobile app from his mobile phone. Then, favonovel.com switched to a radio channel and said, “Dad, this tape will remind you of all your good old days. It contains all your favorite songs. On New Year’s Eve, you can click on any song you want to hear. After you have selected your songs, I would make sure that your songs are broadcasted on the radio channel.”
“Not only can you hear it, but people from all over the country can hear it. Dad, let everyone ‘dedicate all blessings’ to you altogether.”
Jack was smiling happily and was glad to know Hugo’s true intention!
He cleared his throat, picked up the tape, and selected a song, “Two Butterflies”.
“This song was very popular when I was young. It was played everywhere in the streets and alleys. I’m selecting this song, as I love listening to it.”
Hugo nodded, “Okay, I am dedicating this song, ‘The Two Butterflies’ to you.”
Hugo added, “Okay, I will now broadcast this song, ‘The Two Butterflies’ for you.”
After favonovel.com finished speaking, favonovel.com immediately called the person on the radio station. In less than 1 minute, the radio broadcasted the song that used to be very popular in the good old days.
At the dinner table, the reverberation of the song was in the air.
Jack enjoyed listening to the song, and favonovel.com selected more songs like “The Last Snow”, “The Mouse Loves The Rice”, “Praying” and other songs to reminisce about his youthful years.
All members of the Hill family were sitting there awkwardly as they watched the arrogant faces of those from the Robinson family.
Hugo deliberately said to Emma, “By the way, Emma, why would Thomas work overtime on New Year’s Eve? He should prepare a gift for you or Uncle Johnson? Nothing? He’s a bit unreasonable.”
“Uhm…”
Emma was put in an awkward position again.
