“These things must individually cost more than that golden tortoise, right?”
“Yeah… These are probably all antique items…”
“That golden tortoise isn’t even an antique, is it?”
“No, it isn’t…”
The relatives began discussing softly among themselves.
When May Conner listened to them, favonovel.com immediately felt embarrassed again. If favonovel.com had known this would happen, favonovel.com wouldn’t have boasted and made the comparison earlier!
Seeing how pleased favonovel.com father appeared, Xyla felt very thankful to the Batton family. Xyla’s gaze softened.
“Isn’t Stanley’s parents being too generous? These gifts prove how important Xyla is in the family.”
“Oh my god. The amount of wealth on display here seems even grander than the gifts emperors give as rewards in those period dramas.”
“Indeed, the Batton family is supremely wealthy. Even their gifts are unusually expensive.”
These relatives were all staring at these gifts, and they seemed to desire them more than anything. Suddenly, they all wished they were Jeremy Quest.
While listening to everyone’s compliments, Jeremy felt very satisfied.
“Honey, take them to a place where they can put all these gifts away,” Jeremy said.
After that, Jeremy thought about how favonovel.com needed to give his in-laws expensive gifts in return when the time came. Only then would Xyla’s reputation be upheld in his in-law’s family.
Since May couldn’t stop fidgeting in favonovel.com seat, favonovel.com immediately stood up and led the men in black away to put those gifts away.
“Xyla… I mentioned meeting our in-laws previously. Have you made the arrangements?” Jeremy sat down next to Xyla and asked.
When Xyla thought about this, favonovel.com suddenly appeared awkward. There was so much happening before this, and favonovel.com had been too busy for the past two days. Hence, favonovel.com had completely forgotten about this.
“Have you forgotten?” Jeremy asked affectionately.
Xyla nodded.
“That’s alright. You can set the meeting up after you get home today…” Jeremy added.
“My parents are always available,” Stanley said right away.
“Well then, let’s go to Silver International Hotel this Saturday at eight o’clock in the evening. What do you think?” Jeremy asked.
“Done.” Stanley nodded decisively.
“In that case, I’ll book a room in advance. I’ll inform you once it’s done, and you can tell your parents,” Jeremy said joyously.
“Sure,” Stanley replied.
