The juniorsâ gifts were all in their hands. The bigger ones were already placed on the side, and the smaller ones were sent to the gift section after their congratulations.
During the gift-giving process, Mrs. Hunt kept what she liked.
For example, she really liked a longevity painting and couldnât bear to let it go.
Someone asked her, âMrs. Hunt, who gave this to you, and why do you like it so much?â
Mrs. Hunt smiled and looked at Nora.
Earlier, when she was upstairs, she had witnessed everything going on downstairs and had also seen Justin expose their identities to save face.
She felt even more unhappy. At that moment, she looked down and said very seriously, âIt was drawn by my great-grandson Peter Hunt!â.
Peter Huntâ¦
It was the first time this name appeared before the public!
At first, no one realized who it was, but Mrs. Hunt went on to explain. âItâs Justinâs son!â
Son!
It turned out that many years ago, Justinâs illegitimate son was a boy!
Over the years, that child had been a secret and had been protected very well by Justin. The others didnât even know if it was male or female.
However, at this moment, Mrs. Hunt had given them all the evidence!
She was making a big deal out of Pete.
Of course, this behavior was to reassure everyone.
She wanted everyone to know that Master Peteâs status would not change just because Mr. Hunt had a girlfriend? Before this, Pete had never appeared in front of everyone!
Of course, he hadnât appeared yet, but at least his name had already spread among high society.
Hearing this, everyone looked at Justin and Nora.
Mrs. Huntâs intentions were all too obvious. They all understood. At first they thought Nora would show a bad reaction, but in reality they both had an indifferent attitude.
Justin was a man. As long as the future heir was his son, he could do whatever he wanted. However, Nora didnât care at allâ¦.
After everyone had looked down on her, now they couldnât help but look down on her.
Rachel also smiled and said to Yvonne, âDid you see that? Mrs. Hunt is warning her publicly. Sheâs telling Nora to be obedient.â
Yvonne lowered her gaze and did not speak.
Rachel, however, became smug. âSo what if sheâs with Mr. Hunt? She still has no status in the family!â
As she spoke, Justin led Melissa over to Mrs. Hunt.
Rachel instantly became even more excited. âThe Andersons are now in a desperate situation. Their family canât even afford a decent gift, can they?â
As she thought about this, she heard Melissa say, âMrs. Hunt, today is your birthday. The Andersons wish you good luck and longevity.â
After saying this briefly and graciously, she said, âWe have prepared a small gift here. I hope you like it.â
After saying this, he looked at Nora.
Nora raised her eyebrows and handed him a box of pills.
Mrs. Lewis stepped forward first. She was very respectful in front of Justin and everyone else. After all, she couldnât lose the Hunt Family image.
The others saw the iron box with no label. Nora wanted to use a paper box, but Melissa thought it looked too ridiculous. Therefore, she had switched to the iron box. However, even so, it was still too bland in the eyes of the outsiders.
Rachel couldnât help but laugh derisively.
Her laughter attracted the attention of the others. They all asked, âWhat are you laughing at?â
Rachel lowered her head. âThe Andersons manufacture the Rest Pill. So this must be a box of the Rest Pill, right? Iâve heard that the price of the Rest Pill on the market is $3,000. This box must have 50 pills in it, right?â
50 pills meant $150,000.
In a normal family, this was undoubtedly a great gift.
However, in the Huntsâ¦especially when Justin had just announced their identities, Noraâs gift should be more valuable.
But was it only worth $150,000?
The expressions of the rest of the crowd grew complicated as they whispered among themselves and laughed. However, they didnât dare say anything at a glance. Someone else complimented, âFifty Rest Pills? Thatâs too impressive. If you want to buy this pill, you have to have your ID card. Everyone can only buy one each month. As expected of the Andersons, you can buy fifty pills at once.â
This compliment was too dry.
Mrs. Hunt became even angrier.
She looked down and still had a kind smile on her face. She said, âMrs. Anderson, you are too polite. At my age, youâre better off giving me pills than anything elseâ¦â
Even though she said that, when Mrs. Lewis handed her the pill box, she casually placed it next to her and didnât bother to open it.
Seeing this situation, Melissa said nothing.
Under the circumstances, she couldnât praise herself for being good with pills, could she?
If Mrs. Hunt didnât open the box and ask, she wouldnât be able to answer anything. She simply smiled, then took Sheril and Nora aside.
When they were gone, it was the Smithsâ turn.
Hearing the butlerâs call, Warren represented the Smiths and led Yvonne forward.
After saying a few words of courtesy, he handed her the gift the Smiths had prepared. It was a red coral tree. It was expensive, but it matched the identities of both parties and was very standard.
After Warren walked away, Yvonne stepped forward and smiled, âGrandma, Iâve come to wish you a happy birthday!â
Seeing her, Mrs. Hunt immediately smiled. âMiss Smith, are you here too?â
Yvonne nodded and pulled out a neatly packed box. âYes, I have also prepared a small gift for you.â
As she spoke, she handed her the box of medicine.
Mrs. Lewis took it and handed it to Mrs. Hunt.
Mrs. Hunt smiled and opened the medicine box. âWhat medicine is this? It looks very good. Let me see if it is a miracle medicine.â
After opening the box, a faint fragrance that belonged to the Soothing Pill floated down the hallway.
Mrs. Hunt was truly someone who had seen the world. She immediately understood what was going on when she smelled it. She asked in surprise, âIs thisâ¦the Zabe Corporationâs Soothing Pill?â
Her words immediately startled the guests downstairs. They all exclaimed, âZabe Corporationâs Soothing Pill? Hadnât production stopped?â
âI heard that until now, only the Zabesâ heir, Silvester Zabe, could create something like this. But this ability stops with him! Did the Smiths invite Doctor Zabe to make the pills? This is too impressive!â
âAs expected of the Smiths. Only their family can have so much manpower, resources and financial power!â
ââ¦â
When the praise from the surrounding people reached Yvonneâs ears, she âhumblyâ said, âIâm considered to have made a great move in front of everyoneâ¦. The Andersons are the real pharmaceutical experts. Compared to their pills, how can mine compare?â.
