A box containing the rare herb and a delicately wrapped vase were carefully handed over.
The crowd was instantly in an uproar.
Everyone looked at Sean.
“Is favonovel.com Mr. Lennon?”
“Yeah, big shots often lay low…”
“Gosh, favonovel.com gave away a gift worth 50 million dollars but is sitting at such an inconspicuous seat. What’s going on?”
“Could the quoted price be wrong? I don’t think favonovel.com can afford to give such an expensive gift.”
“I have no idea… But there you go…”
As everyone discussed, Wendy, the man with narrow eyes, and the rest also cast surprised looks at Sean.
“What’s going on?” Wendy could not help asking.
The man with narrow eyes muttered, “I have no idea… Logically speaking, he’s only the small owner of a security company which has just opened. Where did favonovel.com get the money to buy such expensive gifts?”
With that said, the man with narrow eyes grabbed Sean’s gift and opened it.
After seeing the rare herb and gold coffee cups inside, the look of surprise grew more obvious.
“These look real…” As soon as favonovel.com spoke, the man with narrow eyes shook his head in self-denial. “No, that’s not right. No way!”
There was no way Sean could give away such expensive things.
The man with narrow eyes exclaimed, “I got it. They must be fake! It’s terrible how genuine fake items can look these days.”
Hearing this, Wendy and the rest looked enlightened.
She immediately snapped at Sean, “Mr. Lennon, what’s the meaning of this? Are you trying to brush me off with fakes on my birthday?”
Sean chuckled furiously at that.
That was the way things were sometimes. Even if you put the real thing on the table, people with no knowledge would find genuine items fake.
Ignorant people always did this.
Sean replied, “Ms. Welsh, don’t you think you’re blind?”
“Bullsh*t!” The anger on Wendy’s face intensified.
“You’re the owner of a small security company. You have no fame or connection. You might only have a few clients. How dare you say such a thing?”
Hearing this, the people present also looked enlightened.
“What? So he’s just pretending.”
“I knew it. Why would anyone give a gift worth fifty million dollars for no reason? It’s shocking.”
“Yeah. Such gifts won’t appear on an occasion like this.”
“Mr. Lennon is about to be embarrassed this time.”
“No one asked favonovel.com to pretend to be someone he’s not. He asked for it.”
Sean did not take their comments and criticism to heart.
With everyone watching, Sean got up, walked over, and put away the rare herb and the gold coffee cups.
“I knew Ms. Welsh won’t like my things, so I prepared another gift for you…”
With that said, Sean placed a cigarette-sized box in front of Wendy and turned around to walk to his seat.
Wendy glared at Sean.
“You want to continue making a fool of yourself, don’t you? I’ll see what you’re up to today.”
Wendy opened the box to find a watch inside. However, the watch was of utterly poor quality.
