Chapter 1435 “Is there such a thing?” D When Old Mr. Summerton heard this, he turned to look at Zaiden darkly.

Zaiden didn’t dare to meet his gaze.

Even Emmanuel could see that Julian's demeanor was like his father’s, which was naturally gentle, but when Julian was provoked, he released a formidable power. Emmanuel wondered if Zaiden possessed this power as well.

“Old Mr. Summerton, | think there are certain matters that you must personally address. Otherwise, the future of the Summerton family will be uncertain. You're on your own now!” 529 1/8 Chapter 1435 Presenting Gifts Aidan’s words carried a sense of foreboding, and after delivering his message, he returned to his seat.

“It seems that I will need to delve into the family’s Jo ~ the banquet.

You descendants simply can’t put my mind at ease!” After reprimanding Zaiden, Old Mr. Summerton finally took his seat.

Lexi was also present at the event with her father, Malakai. However, Lexi remained silent.

He wishes Old Mr. Summerton a long life!” “The Silverbane family of Onza presents a pair of intricately carved jade peaches, wishing Old Mr. Summerton good health!” “The Eissen family of Gratz presents...” Each company or family representative presented their gifts. Since the emcee was announcing the gifts, Roselynn felt anxious. Although the prices of these gifts were not disclosed, attendees would discuss their approximate 12:35 Thu, 11 Apr We Chapter 1435 Presenting Gifts values.

After the first round where over a dozen gifts were presented, the lowest value exceeded 70,000, while the highest likely reached several hundred thousand or even millions! 52% 4/8 It was undeniable that the gifts received at this prestigious family’s birthday celebration were worth what an ordinary individual's ancestors might have struggled for generations to achieve!

“The Tanner family of Onza is incredibly generous, aren't they?” “They presented an antique from the ancient times, valued at 4 million!” “It’s obvious that the Tanner family and the Summerton family have deep connections.” “But | heard previously that the Summerton family had disagreements with the Tanner family. Wasn't there sdiscord?” The surrounding exclamations and discussions brought Roselynn, who had been lost in thought, back to reality.

Hearing these remarks only intensified her discomfort. Julian had actually 12:35 Thu, 11 Apr Chapter 1435 Presenting Gifts stood against the Tanner family to assist her and the Quillen family. If the attendees discovered later that she was merely a commoner, she didn’t want to think about the backlash they would direct at her.

She wasn’t concerned about herself, having endured the netizens’ attacks and insults before.

Instead, she was worried about Julian, who should not have to endure the pressure and defamation on her behalf! “Roselynn, it's our turn to present the gift. Julian is also watching you!” Emmanuel’s reminder caused Roselynn to tremble slightly.

Firstly, she felt that her gift was inadequate. It was a pill that they made themselves.

Secondly, while she had pondered the idea, she had not yet committed to formally meeting Julian’s family. She was torn between desire and fear.

“Roselynn, do you think this is fair to Julian? Even if you see him as just a friend, you should still present a gift to his grandfather today, shouldn't you?” Emmanuel reprimanded her.

Ultimately, Roselynn took a deep breath, nodded, and stood up.
