Chapter 78

“Just looking at her, one can tell she’s from a modest background. | wonder how my exceptional nephew ever fell for her.” Madison’s words struck at Celeste’s most sensitive nerve. Celeste’s chest tightened. It wasn’t so much infatuation as they had been deceived by the Brown family.

‘An awkward silence permeated the room.

Marcus, wearing a grave expression, stepped forward and presented his gift.

“This is a silver cup from ancient times. May it bring Grandma longevity and everlasting joy.” Asilver cup from ancient times?

Everyone was astounded. The cup was a rare artifact of inestimable value. Marcus's gift was indeed remarkable and undeniably the most precious present at the birthday celebration.

Millie stealthily glanced at Marcus. His gesture seemed to assist her in extricating herself from this uncomfortable predicament. Claudia, smiling, accepted both gifts, apparently unperturbed by Madison’s remarks. “Both of you are so considerate. | appreciate these heartfelt gifts.”

Once she had learned about Claudia’s birthday, she spent a significant amount of tpersuading the proprietor of Woody's Biscuits to create this exquisite box of zodiac-themed biscuits.

Upon hearing this, Madison’s expression soured, and she expressed her skepticism.

“Woody's Biscuits closed down ages ago. How could you have possibly procured these? Who do you think you are? It’s widely known that the owner is peculiar and unapproachable. Even if you offered a hefty sum, he wouldn't bake biscuits to order.

Did you acquire these from a roadside vendor?”
