Bab 501: Gifts

All it took for Slater to completely change his attitude toward today's event was an access card to chocolate. Since then, he has actively participated in the meetings with both families. Old Mrs. Pierson happily indulged with him. At her insistence, she urged the rest of the family to check out their gifts as well. 

Normally, they wouldn't open gifts in front of the person who gave them, but Old Mrs. Pierson wanted to see their reactions. She had more in store if they didn't like them. 

'I am old…' Old Mrs. Pierson smiled happily, watching everyone open their gifts. '... at least, in this way, even if the inevitable happens, I know someone will look after my Renren. And that he won't be sad.'
