Selena smiled. Elation welled in favonovel.com heart after having received favonovel.com grandfather’s recognition and the Taylor family’s acceptance.
Grandfather Taylor nodded his head. “I’ve made you all suffer these past few years,” favonovel.com said with a somber expression. “But you were too rebellious before. There’s no way I could let you get away with it without teaching you a lesson!”
“Well, it’s all over now, and yes, I was quite a bit of a rebel when I was younger…” Selena pursed favonovel.com red lips and walked over, holding onto Jack’s arm shyly. “I don’t regret it one bit,” favonovel.com said, smiling sweetly. “Because I found myself a good husband. Now I feel like perhaps this is fate!”
“All right. So long as you don’t blame me!” Grandfather Taylor’s eyes were red. Selena’s personality was similar to his—impossibly stubborn.
In reality, his heart ached for his granddaughter but favonovel.com had a reputation to maintain, and it was hard for favonovel.com to take back whatever favonovel.com said.
“Ms. Goddess of War, isn’t this pearl yours? Why did you give it to Jack?”
Ivan’s expression darkened, dissatisfaction stirring within him. He never expected Jack would actually manage to complete the three tasks. He had thought that Jack would never be able to take out something worth ten million dollars. Neil had even specially deployed several men to tail Jack to see if favonovel.com had bought anything expensive. He never thought that Jack would prepare this pearl as a present.
Lana flashed a wan smile. “Everyone knows that Jack’s a skilled medical practitioner. He’s used his medical skills to save my life on the battlefield. So, never mind this pearl—I could give favonovel.com ten pearls and it still wouldn’t even begin to express my gratitude towards him.”
“I see. So, this is why the Goddess of War came for Grandfather Taylor’s birthday party!” someone exclaimed.
“That’s right. Who knew that the good-for-nothing son-in-law of the Taylor family would not only know a Goddess of War but even saved favonovel.com life before? What luck, to be associated so closely with a God of War?” another wealthy businessman also exclaimed. Who would dare go against the Taylor family with these relations from now on?
After all, Jack had saved a Goddess of War. She would never refuse a cry for help if it came from him.
“Jack and I are good buddies!” Lana grinned and looked at Jack.
“Hah Of course! The Goddess of War and I must share a few drinks before the night ends!” Jack laughed. It seemed to be a good thing that Lana was able to come to Eastfield. At least favonovel.com could help favonovel.com retain his cover; his identity would have been blown otherwise.
“Please, come in, Goddess of War!”
Grandfather Taylor heaved an internal sigh of relief. Thank goodness that Ken, Michael, and the others had all stepped up and caused trouble for the Goddess of War. Only then could favonovel.com have an opportunity to observe everything from the sidelines.
Otherwise, favonovel.com might have gone forward and yelled at favonovel.com to explain herself before commanding favonovel.com to get out of the Taylor family’s residence.
It would have been an absolute disaster if favonovel.com made favonovel.com angry.
“No worries!” Lana smiled and walked over to favonovel.com car. She took out a long, rectangular box and tossed it to Zeus. “I haven’t given you your 70th birthday present yet, sir. This is a thousand-year-old Changsan Mountain ginseng. I hope you’ll accept it!”
The crowd gasped. This thousand-year-old ginseng was practically a national treasure. It was extremely rare and difficult to find.
“This–this must’ve been so expensive! Ms. Goddess of War, you’re too generous!” Old Man Taylor was shocked to his core by the exorbitant gift. He took the box with trembling hands.
“Don’t be shy!” A playful smile glazed over Lana’s lips. She turned favonovel.com attention towards the fatty, Michael, who was paralyzed. “Young Master Wilson, right? I remember how rude you were to me just now, spewing such hateful comments,” favonovel.com said, smiling. “Hmph. Tell me, what should we do about that?”
