Chapter 1571

As the saying went, “He who receives a gift, sells his liberty.”

Pandora was hesitant to accept Steven as a son-in-law, but she eventually agreed to accept his gifts.

She was taken aback by the extravagance of the so-called ‘daily necessities’ Steven had sent. They were all high-

end items whose value was off the charts. She was at a loss for words. After a moment of contemplation, she said,

“Steven, these gifts you’ve sent could support our family for several generations. Why don’t you have someone

take them back?”

Steven replied, “A gift once given should not be taken back. Except for this box of gold bars, the rest are not of

great value. I’ve been married to Hannah for years now and I’ve never come to visit you. Let me make up for my

past mistakes with these gifts. Please give me a chance.”

Steven was earnest, but Pandora detected an ulterior motive. “Let me make this clear Steven. Whether Hannah

chooses to make up with you is entirely up to her.”

Steven finally understood what Pandora was worried about. “Pandora, these gifts are for you. I won’t use them as

leverage to pressure you into doing anything you

don’t want to.”

Pandora replied, “I know you’re not that kind of person, but these gifts are simply too expensive.”e2

There were indeed daily necessities, and several boxes of clothes for her and Hannah’s father. The fabric was of

such fine quality that one could tell just by touching it.

“Mom, mom, where did all these boxes come from? What’s inside them?” Farley’s voice echoed from outside the

kitchen.

Pandora quickly hid the box of gold bars and went outside. “Where is your sister and father?”

“They’re coming,” Farley replied, looking at the boxes scattered around the room. “Mom, we only went out for a

while and all these boxes appeared. Where did they come from?”

“Your ex-brother-in-law sent them,” Pandora replied, placing the box with the gold bars in the deepest part of the

room.

Upon hearing the term ‘ex-brother-in-law’, Farley’s eyes lit up. “I think the ex-brother-in-law is pretty cool. He even

said he’d gift me a private jet when I come of age. I wish Hannah could get back together with him. Mom, will he be

joining us for Christmas this year?”

“Farley!” Hannah and Jeo had arrived, and were startled to hear Farley praising Steven. “You little rascal, are you

asking for a spanking?”

Pandora chuckled, “Go wash your hands and get ready for lunch, or your sister will give you something to cry

about.”

Farley retorted, “I’m already this big and she still bullies me.”

Pandora replied, “Maybe you’ll be the older sibling in your next life.”

Farley responded, “Fine, but as an older brother, I’d protect my sister, not beat her up like Hannah does.”

“Mom, where’s auntie?” Hannah asked.

“She went back to get some stuff. Call uncle and your siblings. It’s getting late. We’ll have something for lunch and

start preparing for Christmas dinner in the afternoon.”

“Okay,” Hannah quickly ushered her siblings to wash their hands. Once she was done, she walked into the kitchen

and was surprised to see Steven sitting by the

stove..

“You, what are you doing here?” she was startled.

Steven replied with a smile, “Your mother found me this morning and invited me to stay for lunch. Remembering

how you asked me to join your family for Christmas, I didn’t decline her invitation.”

Hannah knew Steven too well. If he was found, it was definitely deliberate. Hannah rolled her eyes. “Steven!”

Steven replied, “Hannah, we’re not doing anything secretive, there’s no need to hide from your family.” He had a

plan. By winning over Hannah’s family, he was ensuring a warm welcome in the future.

Hannah retorted, “Since you’re not playing by the rules of the game, we’ll…”

“When did you start playing games?” Farley walked in, and upon seeing Steven, he excitedly ran over and hugged

him. “Brother-in-law, is that really you?” Steven was nearly knocked off his feet by the enthusiastic boy. “Who else

could it be?”

Farley exclaimed, “I just asked mom if you’ll be joining us for Christmas this year. I didn’t expect you to be here

already. No wonder mom didn’t say anything.”
