Chapter 50 Gift

Midnight Sun was ranked 10th on the Dark List. It had been sold for 10 billion dollars in an auction five years ago!

An unknown big shot had won the bid then. It turned out Ava Lockwood was in possession of this brooch.

Isabella Thompson felt a little uncomfortable holding something so precious.

It was way too valuable!

Ava tensed up when she saw Isabella’s grim expression. She asked, “Bella, do you not like it?”

The color and style of the brooch were, in fact, compatible with people of all ages.

Isabella denied hurriedly, “No. I like it, of course. It’s really beautiful. I was just shocked because it’s too precious.”

Ava’s interest was piqued. “Oh, do you recognize it, Bella?”

Isabella did not hide anything. She nodded directly and said, “I know some information about it. Its name is Midnight Sun. Five years ago, it was sold for 10 billion Lucsian Dollars.

“Haha, our Bella is indeed knowledgeable. I’m glad that you like it. It’s just a brooch!”

“Thank you, Second Aunt. I like it very much!” Isabella smiled and closed the box carefully.

Mia couldn’t help but smile. She urged, “Bella, take a look at this. This is my gift to you. Do you like it?”

Isabella smiled and opened Mia’s box. Inside was a set of aqua-blue diamond jewelry. There was a necklace, earrings, and a bracelet.

The aqua-blue light seemed to resemble the mysterious glowing light of the moon. It was noble and pure. Isabella held her breath.

Ava joked, “Bella, let’s see if you can tell what this is!”

Isabella took a deep breath and said, “This is the Oceanic Moon.”

Three years ago, the winning bid for Oceanic Moon was 100 billion dollars.

It was even more precious than Midnight Sun. However, when Isabella observed their expressions, she could tell that the three of them cared more about sincerity than the prices of the gifts. They did not care who had given her the more expensive gift.

This was what the members of the Lockwood family were like.

Isabella did not know what to say. She could only stand up and express her gratitude. “I’ve received really precious gifts today. Thank you.”

“That’s nothing. You still haven’t received your gifts from your grandpa, grandma, and the others!” Mia teased, covering her mouth.

Mia’s eyes were shining brightly as she spoke to Isabella.

Isabella could not help but sigh. “I’m very flattered…”

“Haha…” the three of them laughed.

Philip stood outside the door for a while. Then he left resentfully after confirming that he had fallen out of favor.

Isabella said, “I also prepared gifts. Someone will help carry it over later because there are too many. I hope Mom, Second Aunt, and Third Aunt will like them.”

“Oh?” The three of them were clearly interested. Isabella smiled shyly in response. “It may not be comparable to the gifts that I’ve received.”

“Nah, sincerity is key!” Ava waved her hand.

Jeanne and Mia nodded. “We’re family. You don’t have to worry about this!” Jeanne reassured her.

Isabella smiled and nodded. “Alright.”

“Let’s go now. It’s about time. Let’s get ready for dinner. We’ll get to know each other at the dining table later,” Ava suggested.

Everyone agreed.

Jeanne stood up elegantly and led the way out. She could not help but glance at the room Sir Graham Lockwood and Madame Emma Lockwood was in. When she saw that the door was shut tight, she could not help but smack her forehead.

“My precious grandson must be at the mercy of great-grandpa and great-grandma now.”
