The Woman From Hell

Chapter 294

It was Matthew’s birthday today but he was now upset because of me.

After entering the living room and taking a seat, the servants served us freshly brewed tea.

Theo took a sip of the tea with a smile before taking out a gift box from his suit pocket. "Marcus, I didn't bring anything when I visited last time and felt really sorry about it. When I went home that day, a friend invited me to a charity auction and I saw this there. I figured you'd like it.”

Theo opened up the gift box as he spoke.

Inside the gift box lay a piece of jade. The jade was white in color, crystal clear and extremely lustrous. It looked especially precious at first glance.

Marcus' eyes lit up as he picked up the jade to study it carefully. His love for it was written all over his face.

"This is a really good piece of jade." Quinn looked at it too.

Marcus nodded with a smile and put the jade back into the box. He handed it to the servants and ordered them to keep it safe. He then turned around and said t o Theo, "You're so thoughtful. I really like this gift." "Perhaps it's because of the child, Theo’s getting more
