Chapter 153 | Am Not That Reckless Since the crowd was watching, Rachel unwrapped the present at a faster pace.

Linda looked at Rachel's gift box and was puzzled. Isn't it an ordinary jade bracelet? Why would it need such a large gift box? Could it be something else? Linda smirked secretly. It doesn’t matter, even if it is something else.

I don't think Elisa is that creative.

However...

Linda widened her eyes in shock the instant she saw Elisa’s gift.

It isn’t the jade bracelet she bought at the department store! Instead, it is a jade peacock ornament! Furthermore, the quality of the jade peacock ornament is vastly different from the bracelet. The color is different too! The jade on the bracelet has deep green streaks, but there is none on this ornament. Moreover, it is translucent.

As the crowd guessed the symbolism of the gift, Rachel chuckled and said, “Madam, Elisa is easily embarrassed, so she is too shy to explain. So, | will introduce this gift to you.” “Yes, tellabout it.” Julia loved the peacock ornament the instant she saw it and was excited to know its backstory.

Rachel nodded with a smile. “This peacock ornament has sbackstory, and it cannot be bought. Elisa and | had to go to Lumineer Temple at the foot of Viridis Mountain. The abbot of the temple was a kind man. After hearing Elisa's reason for visiting the temple, he said the temple has a treasure suitable for her, and he felt Elisa was destined to have it. Furthermore, this treasure had been blessed. Since it was destined for Elisa, she did not have to pay a cent.” The crowd was surprised to hear that.

She didn’t have to pay a single cent? Linda looked at Rachel doubtfully. She had grown up with Elisa and knew her well. Thus, she did not believe Elisa could gain an advantage over her. Therefore, she believed there was a hidden meaning to what Rachel said.

Rachel looked at the crowd's astonished faces and continued with a smile, “The abbot said she did not have to pay due to destiny, and money would taint its sanctity. However, it did not mean she could take it for free. The temple had four hundred and ninety steps. Thus, Elisa had to complete them by kneeling at every third step, praying at every fifth step, and prostrating at every seventh step before she could obtain the ornament.” Rachel did not lie. Elisa had indeed done those.

The crowd was shocked.

Kneeling at every third step, praying at every fifth step, and prostrating at every seventh step! That's tremendous hard work. If she did not sincerely care for Julia, why would she do that? People would rather spend hundreds of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions to buy a gift. It is much more convenient to spend money than to kneel.

Furthermore, it is humiliating to kneel! No matter how much | wish to please someone, | wouldn't want to do that.

Isn't Elisa too much? No one doubted Rachel's words. It was because Lumineer Temple was a strict and highly revered religious institution. No one would dare to desecrate Lumineer Temple. Furthermore, no one from Lumineer Temple would lie for anyone.

Thus, one only had to ask someone at the Lumineer Temple to find out whether the matter was true.

Gareth was surprised. He looked at Elisa coldly only to see her smiling. “Grandma, do you like this peacock ornament?” Julia seemed immensely moved by the gift and looked at Elisa with a pang in her heart. “My sweet child. It's only my birthday.

Why did you put yourself through so much trouble? Chere and lethave a look at you. Are you hurt? Four hundred and ninety steps! You could have fallen if you were a little careless. How can you be so reckless?” Elisa chuckled and said, “I'm not reckless, Grandma. | don’t fall that easily.” She went to Julia's side with a smile as she spoke.
