Chapter 127 - 127: Gift



Olsen Family.

After receiving Keira’s message, Mrs. Olsen breathed a sigh of relief.

She had been afraid that Keira wouldn’t bring her husband back at all, which would mean she had made up her mind to be with Mr. Horton…

Mrs. Olsen looked toward Taylor. “Keira is bringing her husband home tonight; let’s get the kitchen ready,” she said.

Taylor seemed a bit impatient. “If she’s coming, she’s coming. What’s there to prepare? Shirley, you’re just too good to her!”

Despite his words, he gave a nod to Aunt South.

Aunt South then headed to the kitchen.

Isla listened to the conversation between the two, narrowing her eyes.

So, Keira was finally going to bring that pauper of a husband to their doorstep?!

Good, she would make Keira pay today!

With a smile, she said, “Then I’ll get Jake to come home for dinner too. After all, it’s Keira’s husband’s first visit to our house. We are sisters, so their husbands are brothers-in-law.”

After saying this, she took out her phone and sent Jake a WhatsApp message. “Jake, come over for dinner tonight?”

Hearing that, Mrs. Olsen couldn’t help but frown and interjected, “Remind Jake to bring fewer gifts when he comes.”

Isla was taken aback.

She clenched her fists tightly!

Of course, she understood why Mrs. Olsen would say such a thing because Keira’s husband came from a poor background, someone not fit for the public eye. Was Mrs. Olsen afraid that Jake would overshadow him?!

She felt anger, thinking that Mrs. Olsen’s favoritism had gone too far.

Seeing her displeased expression, Mrs. Olsen quickly explained, “Isla, don’t think too much. Tonight is to welcome Keira and her husband. His humble origins shouldn’t be highlighted too much compared to Jake’s.”

Mrs. Olsen simply didn’t want to embarrass Keira.

With a smile, Isla replied, “Sure! I’ll remind Jake.”

Although she said that out loud, over WhatsApp, Jake had already replied, “Don’t want to come.”

A tightness gripped Isla’s chest as she typed. “Tonight Keira’s husband will visit, so I thought to ask you to join us.”

Jake’s reply was quick. “What time?”

Isla clenched her fist. “He should arrive around six, so come around five-thirty.”

Jake said, “Okay, is there anything I need to bring?”

Although Jake could be arrogant, he was dependable in action. The Horton family’s good upbringing didn’t allow for impolite behavior.

Seeing his response, Isla continued. “We got our certificate today, and it’s kind of like your first time coming to my home, so you shouldn’t skimp on the necessary gifts. But my mom just mentioned not to choose anything too expensive, to keep Keira’s husband from feeling inferior.”

She knew Jake all too well.

Just mention Keira’s husband, and he’d surely act rebelliously.

Sure enough, the next moment, Jake’s message came through. “It’s my first visit, so it wouldn’t be good to appear too shabby. I’ll bring whatever I want, and you don’t need to worry about it.”

The corner of Isla’s lips curled slightly.

She put down her phone and looked toward Mrs. Olsen. “Mom, I’ve already reminded Jake. I told him not to bring too much stuff; I won’t compete with Keira for attention.”

Mrs. Olsen’s face finally relaxed a lot. “Good.”

At half-past five in the afternoon.

The humming sound of a car engine came from outside.

The sound was unmistakably Jake’s sports car.

A hint of a smile flashed in Isla’s eyes as she joined Taylor and Mrs. Olsen to welcome their guest, only to see a blue Porsche parked in the courtyard.

Jake, in a high-end tailored suit, stepped out of the car.

His appearance brought a beaming smile to Isla’s face.

That sports car was a limited edition, and Jake’s outfit was worth several hundred thousand. Then they saw Jake walk to the front of the car, open the hood, and begin to take out some gifts.

The gifts were packed tightly, filling the entire vehicle!

The Olsen family’s housekeeper immediately went up to help, carrying three to four gift boxes at a time, yet there were still more to be fetched.

With no other choice, she placed the items in the living room before running back for more.

After three or four trips, the floor of the living room was covered with over a dozen gift boxes, every item looking extremely valuable, including high-grade caviar, top-quality wines, and some jewelry pieces.

Any single item was worth several hundred thousand.

The total value of these gifts was estimated to be in the millions.

Isla’s eyes were filled with envy!

It was no wonder the Hortons were the wealthiest family in Oceanion, their generosity was overwhelming.

She turned her head to look at Mrs. Olsen, whose expression seemed a bit off as if she wanted to say something, so Isla spoke before her. “Jake, didn’t we say that it was just a casual family meal, and Keira’s husband is coming too. There’s no need to bring so many gifts…”

Upon hearing this, Jake casually replied, “I know. I’ve already cut down the usual amount by thirty percent. After all, this is my first time visiting my in-laws’ home, and I wouldn’t want to bring too little and come off as rude.”

After saying this, he looked toward Mrs. Olsen and Taylor, “Taylor, Shirley you don’t mind, do you?”??????????????????? ’

Mrs. Olsen was always polite to outsiders, especially to this son-in-law, and she could only suppress her displeasure, responding with a light smile. “Not at all.”

Taylor then stepped forward. “Next time you come, don’t bring anything.

You’ve gone to too much expense.”

“How could it be too much for my in-laws? I still feel it’s too modest and that I haven’t properly honored Isla.”

Jake chatted with Taylor as the two of them entered the house.

Gifts from guests ought to be placed in the living room until the guests leave, at which point they can be put away; the sight of the gift boxes made Mrs Olsen imagine how awkward it would be for Keira and her husband when they arrived!????????????????????????? y

She frowned and took a deep breath before signaling to Aunt South.

Aunt South came over.

Mrs. Olsen then said, “Prepare some gifts and wait outside for Keira and her husband. If they arrive, give the gifts to them…”

Even if the gifts didn’t match in quality, they couldn’t fall too short in quantity.

She was now somewhat regretting having invited Keira for dinner.

She cast another glance at Isla.

Isla complained. “Mom, I really did tell Jake. Look, my chat history is here. I think the Hortons are just too generous, and maybe he genuinely thought he had already brought too little…”

Mrs. Olsen didn’t know what to say.

She took another deep breath and gave further instructions to Aunt South. “Tell the staff, when Keira’s husband arrives later, don’t show any improper expressions.”

“Yes.”

After arranging all this, Mrs. Olsen still felt uneasy.

She sighed and ultimately took out her phone, sending a message to Keira to give her some mental preparation. “Jake and Isla are here too, with quite a few gifts. Keira, you should understand one thing. The intention matters more than the gift. I don’t care about those things.”

Keira replied, “Understood, Mrs. Olsen. We’re on our way and will arrive at the Olsen residence in about half an hour..”
