Chapter 269 The Blossoming of Affection

Malcom had not had a chance to speak just now, and now found a moment to speak. With caution, he said, “Perhaps he has come to realize his debt to Ms. Aylin and wants to do something to make amends.”

Harry’s expression turned colder as he responded, “A piece of embroidered artwork, no matter its value, is insufficient to compensate for even a fraction of the suffering Aylin has endured. Thinking of making amends now? It’s too late!”

“Absolutely right! Who cares about some obscure item he wants to give us? Even if I were to beat him a hundred times, I wouldn’t be satisfied!” Robert’s indignation surged whenever he thought about Aylin’s experiences in the Delacruz family.

Can money ever heal emotional wounds? What an arrogant fool!

Aylin carefully stored the scroll back in the box and calmly addressed Malcom, “Scars are not easily healed. Gifts are nothing more than lifeless objects.”

Suddenly, Aylin froze.

Her attention was drawn to conspicuous bloodstains on the second box. Her heart skipped a beat as she quickly picked up the small square box.

In a soft voice, Abby exclaimed, “Oh, there are bloodstains on this box!”

Upon opening it, she discovered a delicate bracelet crafted from broken diamonds and yellow gemstones, resting quietly on the velvet, awaiting its owner

Aylin was left stunned.

Robert had long noticed the sparkling bracelet on her wrist, and upon seeing the same bracelet in the box, he couldn’t hide his contempt. “He even went overboard with his gift-giving. I knew this guy wasn’t sincere. Ha…”

Malcom shook his head, finding the first gift acceptable but deeming the second one unworthy. “I suppose he didn’t put much thought into it.”

“But… the bracelet Ryker gave me was handmade by himself,” Aylin uttered, leaving everyone taken aback.
