Chapter 74

As Peter’s son and daughter–in–law, Austin and Evelyn were naturally the first to give the presents. They gave Peter a cane made of rosewood. The color of it was beautiful, and it was worth a fortune.

“Dad. I wish you good health, and I hope all will be well,” Austin and Evelyn blessed Peter in unison.

She said, “Grandpa Peter, the painting is already yours. It’s your call
