Chapter 915: The Night Pearl

The four sons of the Brookes family fixed their curious gazes on Ian as he solemnly opened a purple-patterned box. Inside, a pearl emitted a faint glow. In the bright daylight, the light was subtle, but when Ian cupped his hand around it, its brilliance became apparent-a rare Night Pearl. Its starting price was measured in billions.

Brandon coveted the pearl the moment he saw it. He wanted to ask his father how many more Night Pearls their family owned and whether he could have one.

Alina, on the other hand, was overwhelmed with emotion. Her eyes filled with tears as she looked at Ian. "Dad, the Brookes family has done so much for me. I don't even know how to thank you!"

Seeing his beloved daughter cry, Ian quickly moved to wipe her tears. "Don't cry, don't cry! You'll ruin your makeup. A girl should always care about such things. Alina, you're naturally beautiful, but redoing your makeup is such a hassle!" "Alina," Ian continued, his tone tender, "I'm willing to do anything for you. As for this Night Pearl, I have plenty of them at home, in all kinds of colors. Pick whichever one you like!"

Brandon felt a sharp pang in his chest. Dad, if anyone should be crying, it's me-not Alina!

Alina threw her arms around Ian and hugged him tightly. "Dad, you'll always have me by your side, no matter what happens. I'll stay with Ruud and Tina to take good care of you in the future."

Ian was deeply moved by her words. For his daughter, he would pluck the moon from the sky if she asked for it.

"Alright, let's head to the front hall. We'll still get to see Alina again when she takes the stage," Ian said, leading the Brookes family out.

In the front hall, Warren had reserved prime seats in the first row for both the Brookes and Farrell families.

Ruud stood tall and confident among the crowd, dressed in a perfectly tailored black suit that highlighted his handsome and mature demeanor. With a highball glass in hand, he toasted the guests, his face glowing with joy and pride. Jared, seated nearby, glanced at his father-in-law's contented expression, a faint smile tugging at the corner of his lips. Subconsciously, his hand reached for Tina's, giving her palm a gentle squeeze to draw her attention.

Tina, nibbling on a slice of strawberry cake, glanced up briefly. "My mom's finally gotten what she always wanted. It's a happy ending," she said, her calm black eyes betraying a flicker of emotion.
