Chapter 471 - A Gift From The Uncles (2)
When Felix passed the car keys across the table, he was muttering, "Go and get the car yourself tomorrow. The showroom is in Central Jakarta and the name is Auto Sport Motor."
Lilia and Mellisa saw the key to the box, but they hesitated.
The gift was too fancy, of course anyone would feel uncomfortable. Lilia and Mellisa were no exception.
When Grandpa Caleb saw them hesitating, he chuckled. The old man then took it from Felix's hand and placed it in front of them. "Why are you so shy? It's not good to reject others' kindness!"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Hansen who was sitting across from him. "Hansen, what have you prepared for the girls?"
Hansen, 44, was currently the leader of Mayer Private Airlines and the third son.
At this meeting, he faintly glanced at his first and second older brothers, his cold sweat was already gushing out continuously.
If he obeyed his heart this morning, he might just bring a teddy bear for his nieces. If that really happened, what would happen to him? And of course, his two older siblings had prepared well. One gave a pair of jade necklaces and the other sports cars. Luckily, he was ready.
Hansen coughed and took out two files from behind his chair.
He looked at Lilia and Mellisa with a smile in his kind eyes and said, "Honestly, I don't know what girls like nowadays. But I heard that Lilia is a supermodel, right? I'm sure you must be out of town or abroad a lot, so this is a certificate of rights to use private jets."
"My company happened to recently buy a bunch of different jets, so I decided to give you one. If you want to use it, you can directly contact Mayer Airlines whenever you want. Even to the corners of the world, I'm? sure that you will reach safely!" He added.
At this moment, Lilia and Mellisa were already stunned.
On the other hand, Grandpa Caleb let out a satisfied sigh. "Not bad, this is the best!"
After hearing this, the first child and second child were a little troubled!
Their prizes sounded even cheaper! Where would they want to place their faces after this?
Then, did they have to give two more private jets to these two nieces?
Hansen's super extraordinary gifts coupled with Caleb's praise made everyone sitting around the large dining table understand how the main family valued Lilia and Mellisa.
At this meeting, Janice was the most faceless person.
She sat beside Stefani with a sad expression, watching the scene before her with wet eyes.
Suddenly, she hated herself a little because she was too gentle in dealing with matters that concerned Leila.
Without realizing it, she must have hurt her two daughters.
Janice looked at Lilia and Mellisa with tears in their eyes. She regretted that she could not give much affection to Lilia, her biological daughter.
How could she ignore her just because of Leila? Apart from that, Lilia was also badly injured at that time.
The more she thought about it, the more pain she felt in her heart, and the more tears gathered in her eyes.
Stefani sat beside her and heard a rather depressed sob. She followed and saw Janice lowering her head and wiping her eyes. Stefani patted her in surprise. "Janice, what's wrong?"
Janice was shocked and hurriedly shook her head. "It's okay, I'm fine."
While the two of them were talking, one person at the table slowly stood up. "That…"
As soon as these words were spoken, Grandpa Caleb stopped from stabbing the vegetables with a fork. Staring at his figure, his brows seemed to bulge. "You stinky brat, what do you want?"
Reynold, standing red-faced at the table, was really scared of his father!
He peeked at Lilia. In front of his own father, he didn't dare to cause too much trouble. He scratched his hair and muttered, "Dad, I also prepared a present ..."
Seeing Reynold being reprimanded, Stefani didn't care about Janice anymore. She looked at the old man from a distance and pretended to say jokingly. "Calm down first. Reynold is also the uncle of the two girls. This child is also kind enough to prepare gifts for them, shouldn't we refuse people's kindness?"
Caleb snorted, his sharp eyes fixed on Reynold, looking a little helpless and dizzy.
For this one son, there might be an age difference of nearly fifty years, so the generation gap between the old man and him could not be easily overcome.
Their nature was just simply different. Caleb couldn't understand the nature of todays' youngsters since he lived most of his life as a warrior, so he experienced a whole different youth from Reynold.
Reynold was still so young and had a lively personality, it was undeniable that he would be displeased with the many lessons and exercises.
Therefore, Stefani became a bridge that connected the two. But since her role was quite opposed in the Mayer family, her words were often ignored.
At this time, Stefani realized the old man did not argue, so she immediately said to Reynold, "Reynold, come here. Didn't you say you've prepared a gift for these two girls?"
Reynold stood in front of the table and nodded, then he slowly walked towards Lilia with a small notebook in his arms.
Reynold was the fourth youngest son in the family, even ten years younger than Hansen's child.
He came forward to hand his gift, but everyone present didn't pay too much attention to him.
As for the other uncles, they were calmly sipping their teacups.
After all, no matter what this kid wanted to give, it was definitely not as good as their present.
The most relaxed was the third son!
With two private jets for his nieces, who could really match him!?
Everyone waited with different thoughts, and as Reynold got closer to Lilia, the tips of his ears turned red.
His heart was beating fast, and his throat became dry. He felt his heart could jump out from the nervousness.
At this time, he was standing silently in front of Lilia, blinking nervously while tightly holding the notebook in his arm, and hesitating how to speak.
Lilia saw his expression, so she smiled and stood up.
She glanced at the notebook in Reynold's embrace and said lightly, "Hello, my uncle!"
Even if this Reynold was younger than her, she should address him politely and call him "uncle" because of the boy's identity in the family tree.
In the end, he was just a 12 year old boy. Facing the idol he'd always admired of course made his heartbeat pounding like crazy.
He took a deep breath after he heard Lilia calling out to him. Then he quickly waved his hand with his notebook. "No need to call me that! Just call me Reynold!"
He didn't want his seniority to become a barrier between them, it had almost kept him away from the goddess!
Stefani's expression changed as soon as he said this. Before she could remind him, Caleb put down his fork hard. "Stupid! Hurry up and give Lilia what you want to give!"
Reynold was trembling with fear, the corners of his mouth dropped as he glanced at the old man. He didn't dare to say another word. He could only put the little book in Lilia's arms. "Lilia, this book has over a thousand accounts that have all insulted and spread hoaxes about you on the Internet before. I wrote them down and saved them so that I can give them to you one day. With this, your company can punish them!"
Everyone stared at him as big question marks rose above their heads.
At this moment, Reynold pointed at the little book with astonishing words, as if he was a vengeful child.
Caleb's old face turned black!
Did he seriously call this a gift? This little bastard was really stupid! As a father, Caleb was really ashamed!
Caleb was so angry that even Stefani slapped herself in shock.
After this incident, no one had spoken yet. Lilia took the book and wiped the cover lightly. Her eyes were dangling as she happily accepted. "Thank you, uncle... This gift... I really like it!"
She knew that this was the result of Reynold's hard work, and Lilia was truly touched even though the boy's way seemed a bit wrong.
