Chapter 787

Downstairs.

The children had already woken up.

They went to bed too late last night, so they slept until almost ten o’clock today.

Gael, the housekeeper, was also sending gifts to the servants.

The servants were also sending gifts to each other.

Greyport was different from Mossbourne. Those who lived in Greyport would send give to others. It was just that the gift might not be generous, as it was just a symbol of blessing.

Although they were servants of the Everett family, they also sent gifts to the four little fellows as blessings.

“Merry Christmas.”

Davian and Irvin said to the servants. They were so happy to receive gifts that they didn’t even have time to have breakfast.

Of course.

The children just wanted to have fun and did not really need the gifts. Moreover, Bruce was quite generous in giving gifts to

the servants.

Therefore, the servants scrambled to give the children the gifts.

In the dining room.

The children had all gone to ask for gifts.

Only Bruce and Joanna were left for breakfast.

Joanna was not in the mood to eat breakfast at all. After thinking for a while, she could not help but say carefully, “Bruce, I… I want to discuss something with you.”

Seeing that Joanna was hemming and hawing, Bruce rolled his eyes at her and asked, “What is it?”

“Well, did you see the news yesterday?”

“What news?” Bruce took a sip of the milk and ate some oatmeal. He pretended not to know anything.

It was Christmas.

However, the Internet was filled with news of Tim’s death. How could he not have known about it? Joanna looked at him uneasily. She wanted to say something but hesitated.

“Oh, um… Jay’s father died of illness. Have you seen this news?”

“Uh, what’s wrong?”

Joanna fiddled with the milk and oatmeal in the bowl and said hesitantly, “I want to call Jay. Is that okay?” When he heard about this, Bruce’s expression clearly froze, and his chewing slowed down.

He knew that Joanna wanted to tell him about Jaydon.
