After the people left, Tommy immediately went to the box containing the money, took out the stack, and counted them.
He scrutinized them and shouted, “Grandpa, the money is real.”
Lex was still trying to figure out who was this Mr. Caden, and why favonovel.com was so generous.
Tommy put down the money and walked toward Lex.
Then, favonovel.com said, “Grandpa. The only woman not married in the Callahans is Megan and Yzabella from uncle’s side. However, Yzabella already has a boyfriend, and favonovel.com isn’t named Caden either.”
“Yeah, this Mr. Caden didn’t even state whose hand in marriage was favonovel.com asking for and sent so many betrothal gifts?” Lex nodded and said.
“It must be for me. I’m so much prettier than Yzabella. This mysterious Mr. Caden is surely not interested in her. He is definitely asking for my hand in marriage,” Megan exclaimed and reacted in excitement.
“Hmm…” Lex pondered for a while.
Among the unmarried women of Callahans, Megan was the most outstanding one, and favonovel.com also agreed that the gifts must have been for Megan.
Still, who was this Mr. Caden?
“Megan, do you any rich man by the name of Mr. Caden? The only family that had the surname Caden was the one ten years ago. There aren’t any other families with the surname that could afford such lavish gifts,” Lex glanced at Megan and asked.
“Ah? N-no…” Megan fell into thought.
She had no recollection of any rich man called Mr. Caden.
The Callahans began to guess who the betrothal gift was for and the identity of the mysterious sender, Mr. Caden.
Meanwhile, James, who was headed home, received a call from Scarlett.
“James, I’ve sent the betrothal gifts to the Callahans. Lex had personally received them.”
James frowned and said, “Did you send them to the Callahans’ villa?”
“Y-yeah. Is something the matter?”
James scolded, “Why did you send it to the Callahans’ villa? I asked you to send it to Thea’s house!”
“Huh? Don’t be angry, James. I’ll send someone to take them back and redeliver them again immediately,” Scarlett said hurriedly in panic.
“Forget it. I’ll bring Thea to the Callahans’ villa to claim them later,” James thought to himself and said.
James hung up the phone. Since it was sent to the Callahans’ villa, so be it.
Bringing Thea to receive the gifts would also make favonovel.com proud. Moreover, the Commercial Crime Investigation Department had already intervened in Thea’s matters and would be arresting Howard and the others very soon. Bringing Thea over would clear Thea’s name.
James was burning with excitement as favonovel.com thought of Thea’s charming face and the sight favonovel.com was going to show favonovel.com at night.

Thea’s house.
“Dad, Mom! Someone sent a betrothal gift to the Callahans’ villa.” David, who was scrolling through his phone, suddenly shouted.
He was chatting in the family group.
Tommy shared pictures of valuable betrothal gifts.
“Mom, Dad, check the family group chat. Tommy said the gift included Eighty-eight million eight hundred thousand dollars in cash, a limited edition Ferrari worth twenty-eight million dollars, and a twenty-two thousand square meter villa in Goodview Villa District worth three hundred and eighty million dollars. There were also countless jewelry and clothes…”
“What?” Gladys immediately picked up favonovel.com phone and opened the group chat.
Benjamin and Alyssa also opened the group chat.
In the group, Tommy sent a proud voice message, “Look, everyone. These are the betrothal gifts sent for my sister, Megan. How many assets does this pursuer have to be able to send such expensive gifts? He must have at least hundreds of billions to send such generous gifts. Doesn’t it make you guys envious?”
Gladys frowned and murmured after seeing the gifts and Tommy’s proud voice. “When did Megan meet such a rich man? The betrothal gift is really expensive and almost worth half of the Callahans’ assets.”
“Mom, this can’t be right…”
David sensed that something was not right and immediately said, “How could Megan possibly know any rich men? The betrothal gift must be for Thea by Mr. Watson. Didn’t Mr. Watson say their family tradition is to send gifts at least worth one billion dollars? He just mentioned it in the afternoon and already sent them over so soon.”
Gladys slammed favonovel.com tights and said, “That’s right! Why didn’t I think of it? This must be a betrothal gift by Mr. Watson to Thea. How could it be for Megan? That’s nonsense! Let’s go! We must go to the villa and claim what belongs to us.”
“Let’s go, Mom!” David stood up.
Gladys glanced at Benjamin, still sitting idly, and favonovel.com called out, “What’re you doing, Benjamin? Hurry up!”
“Oh.” Benjamin finally reacted.
The family set off and walked in the direction of the Callahans’ villa.
