Chapter 954: This Is the Money We Saved for You

The three of them stepped into the elevator together.

Hugo heard the noise outside and came to open the door. "Tina, Jared..." He paused when he saw Zackary walking in with them. "Oh, so that's where you were. I wondered why I couldn't find you this morning. Turns out you were downstairs waiting for your sister. Why didn't you tell us? Your mom thought you were still sleeping in."

Zackary's face turned red at being exposed. "Dad... I wasn't sleeping in."

Hugo chuckled, patting his son's head. "Go let Jennie know you're back. Don't just disappear, or she'll start worrying again."

In the living room, Jennie came out of the kitchen with a warm smile. "Tina, Jared, you're here."

Tina nodded and walked over. "Jennie."

Jared set down the gifts he brought and greeted them as well. "Hugo, Jennie, these are some small gifts from my in-laws. Please try them."

Hugo glanced at the beautifully wrapped boxes and instinctively waved his hand. "Oh no, we can't accept these. Tina, Jared, you should take them back."

Jennie chimed in, "Yes, exactly. We're still wondering how to return the gifts Mr. Pace brought last time. If you bring more, we won't be able to sleep peacefully." Jared smiled helplessly. "Jennie, these gifts are a direct order from my in-laws. If you don't accept them, I'll be the one getting scolded when I go back." "This..."

Hugo and Jennie exchanged a look, both feeling a bit defeated.

Tina frequently sent them items, and ever since Ruud learned how to cheer up his daughter, he had been sending gifts every few days, leaving the couple exasperated. After repeatedly stressing that they didn't need more gifts, things had quieted down for a while. But now it was starting again. They didn't know what else to say. Tina pulled Jennie to sit down. "It's just some snacks. Please accept them. Otherwise, Uncle will have a hard time explaining when he gets back."

With Tina's reassurance, Hugo and Jennie finally relaxed.

At lunch, the table was filled with dishes Tina liked, along with a beautifully crafted strawberry cake from a local bakery.
