In the living room.

Yuri was dishing up the fruits that had just been delivered. She saw Louis walk in with an angry look on his face. She frowned and asked with confusion, "Who upset you?"

"Where's my mother?" asked Louis.

"She headed upstairs with a golden pine tree ornament in her hands. Who gave that? I can see she's happy. Is it made of pure gold?" asked Yuri. She reckoned that if the ornament was truly made of pure gold, it would be worth at least a million dollars.

"Luke gave it to us. She opened the gift in front of him. I'm going upstairs to find her," Louis replied shortly and made his way up the stairs.

Yuri watched him leave and pondered.

If the ornament was a gift from Luke, there was no doubt that it was made of pure gold.

She did not expect Susan would take such a valuable ornament before her...

Yuri looked at the fruits on the table and shook her head helplessly. Even though she did not like things that were made of gold, the ornament was valuable, and it could be sold for a significant amount of money.

Louis went upstairs. Susan was nowhere to be seen in the living room. He pushed open the bedroom door.

Susan was placing the ornament on the table when the sound of the door slamming open startled her. She turned around and saw Louis, then she placed her hand on her chest to calm herself down. Then, she said, "Why did you open the door without knocking? You scared me."

"Do you think what you did was right?" Louis' eyes were slightly red as he looked at Susan. She clutched the ornament tightly in her hand. He knocked it out of her hand.

Susan glanced at the ornament and remained silent. Then, she placed it on the shelf near the window.

"Mom, you went too far with what you did today!" It got on Louis' nerves when he noticed that all Susan cared about was the pine tree ornament and she ignored him.
