A Crazy One-night Stand

Morga, the French designer, was well-known throughout the world. Everyone in the high society had heard of her reputation. 

Her designer clothing could sell for millions of dollars.

Last year, she did a fabric puzzle of the Milky Way. It was only half the size of Caitlin's puzzle, however, it sold for an exorbitant price of 110 million dollars. 

Although this fabric puzzle was done by her disciple, which meant that it was not as valuable as Morga's work, it was still worth millions of dollars. 

Caitlin was just a future granddaughter-in-law who had not yet entered the Scott Family officially. The audience marvelled at her lavish generosity and impeccable taste. 

Lincoln smiled and said, "Thank you. I like it very much!"

Caitlin replied graciously, "It's my pleasure."

Then she sat down with a smug look on her face, waiting for the show to begin.

She gave Lucas a pointed look, hinting that he must execute the plan perfectly and not let her efforts be in vain.

Wilson noticed the interaction between Lucas and Caitlin. When he saw Caitlin showing off the fabric puzzle embroidered by the disciple of Morga, Wilson sneered in response. If it weren't for his grandfather, he would have exposed their attention-seeking behaviour publicly. However, he didn't want to make his grandfather unhappy on his birthday.

Soon, Wilson's gift was opened.   

It was a book handwritten by Giana Levine, a famous doctor from the ancient times. No one knew its value so they could only guess. 

Wilson said to his grandfather, "Grandfather, this book would be of practical use to you. I hope you would find it useful."

"Brilliant!" Lincoln was obviously happier than when he received other gifts.

This caused some dissatisfaction in the crowd. 

Caitlin gnashed her teeth and cursed silently, "Useless old man, we prepared expensive gifts and paid so much for them, but your reaction was so lacklustre. Conversely, you complimented Wilson when he gave you a dirty old book? How could you be so partial? B*stard!"

Alina's name was soon announced. 

When Alina heard the housekeeper call her name, her body trembled.  

Alina was so nervous that she almost suffocated.

Just by looking at the gifts that were revealed, she felt so ashamed that she could sink through the floor. How could her jigsaw puzzle, which was made of wood, even compare to their gifts? Furthermore, Caitlin's puzzle was made of real silk and embroidered by the disciple of a master.  

She felt her scalp prickle with fear. 

Wilson said softly, "Grandfather, Alina gave you a jade ornament. She knew that I was going to give you Giana's book, so she chose this especially for you. I hope that you will like it." 

"Good, good! Thank you!" Lincoln was overjoyed when he heard Wilson's words. It was the kind of happiness that came from the heart.
