Chapter 232: A Gift Full of Irony

Maybe they'll come across something rare, and that would definitely cheer the old man up.

"Old man, come downstairs and see if there are any gifts you like. Don't sulk up here. Why let those petty people get to you?" Julia said with a smile, as Leah walked over.

"Grandpa, Grandma's right. Why get upset? If you're angry, you're playing right into their hands," Leah gently comforted Sean.

Sean had a soft spot for Leah, and with a long sigh, his frustration seemed to ease. "You're right. If I let it get to me, it's exactly what those people want. Let's go and see if there's anything that might cheer me up."

The group left the study and headed toward the main hall.

The hall was piled high with gifts, all in fancy, high-end boxes.
