1534 Words
At around seven o'clock in the evening. It was very lively in the Brown’s villa! Members of the family, wherever they were, came back. Grandma Brown's 70th birthday was also concerned by many big families. Therefore, the Browns invited many people. Although the Browns was only a second-rate family, the owner of the Browns was 70 years old, and many people came to congratulate her. Father-in-law Frank had already arrived to welcome the guests. Eric and Thea got off. At this time, many luxury cars had stopped outside the Brown’s villa. Thea dressed up very beautifully today. A pair of slender long legs under her hip wrapped skirt attracted many people around her, but many people looked at Eric, joking. Eric was not only a joke of the Browns, but also a joke of the whole city. "Look, that guy is Eric, the loser son-in-law of the Browns." "Yes, yes, that's the one. I heard that last time he came to the Brown's midyear meeting, he wore a shirt for $29, ha ha!" "What a waste! Was Thea blind!" "Ha ha, bro, you don't know. The exact news is that this guy hasn't even touched his wife's fingers in the past three years. He has been sleeping in the storage room!" "But there's a big event you may not have heard of. I tell you, don't spread it out." a younger generation of the Lees whispered. "What's up?" "I heard that Henry Jones proposed to the Browns yesterday. Do you know who he proposed to?" the young man, looking at Thea's graceful figure, couldn't help but swallow his saliva quietly. "Can't it be Thea?" Another person said in surprise, and the banter on his face was a little thicker. "It's Thea. I heard that this loser was also ambitious and sent Henry away. However, I don't think Henry will give up this matter." the younger generation of the Lees said. The Lees has made friends with the Browns for several generations, and the two families have several marriages, so they knew a lot about secrets. "Don’t tell? How could that guy defeat Henry? Hey, I think he will have to give his beautiful wife to others in a few days." "Ha ha, it’s better to die than a man living like this!" Eric was a little embarrassed. He didn't care that other people said he was a loser, but it was Thea they were joking about. This was his wife and the woman he loved. Under the cuff, his fists couldn't help holding tightly. As long as Thea didn't want to, no one could take her away! But these all needed strength! "Let's start the birthday party for grandma Brown." The housekeeper held a microphone at the door of the Brown’s. The voice fell and the surrounding noise was suddenly quiet. "President Wu of Changyun group sent a calligraphy to wish grandma Brown good health and longevity." Kevin Wu of Changyun group had a fortune of hundreds of millions and had a very good relationship with grandma. Kevin opened the box with a laugh. A simple calligraphy note looked very ordinary, but it made the surrounding quiet. Soon there was a cry of surprise! This was not the ordinary calligraphy. As they all knew, the calligraphy of Yan Zhenqing was the most precious and could no longer be measured by money. Although it couldn't compare with Wang Xizhi, they were also masters of calligraphy. It's so valuable. It's a gift worth a million! "Come on, Mr. Wu, please sit down. Don't spend so much money next time. I remember your kindness in my heart. Thank you, Mr. Wu!" Grandma Brown couldn't close her mouth and was very happy. Many people knew that Granny Brown liked antiques. This gift has been sent to her heart! With such a heavyweight gift, the subsequent gifts would appear a little ordinary, but there was no lack of valuable antiques. "A pair of blue and white porcelain bowls of the Ming Dynasty..." "A picture of the Qing Dynasty palace tour..." The housekeeper at the door kept saying. The brightly lit Brown’s villa had a peaceful and festive atmosphere. Soon, another gift made the surroundings quiet! "13.14 million in cash, a gold hairpin, a pair of bracelets and a villa on moonlight island from the Lees! Wish grandma Brown a perfect birthday!" Hiss! Everyone was shocked! That’s such a big gift from the Lees! That's more than ten million in cash. And there were gold hairpin and bracelet, and moonlight island was also worth tens of millions. Tens of millions of birthday gifts? I'm afraid this was not a birthday gift, but a marriage proposal? "Grandma Brown, this is our little gift. I wish you a happy life and good health." The young master of the Lees, Carl Lee, was dressed in a suit and white shirt. His hair was well combed, natural and unrestrained. He was a talent! "Thank you, Carl. We are family. Why spend so much money?" Grandma Brown couldn't close her mouth with a smile. She was smart. How could she not understand Carl’s meaning? The Browns and Lees families had many marriages, and adding another happy event naturally added to their happiness. "Grandma, I want to propose today." Carl walked into the hall and bowed to Grandma Brown. Sure enough! Many guests in the hall looked out, and the young girls of the Browns also looked left and right and whispered. They didn't know who was lucky to be liked by the young master of the Lees. Although the Lees, like the Browns, was only a second rate family in the city, they were a bit better than the Browns in terms of overall financial resources. They were also a rich family. They must enjoy endless glory when they marry him. "Carl, who are you going to propose to, Yvonne?" Grandma Brown said with a smile. Yvonne, the only daughter of the second child of the Browns, was also the most beautiful girl of the younger generation of the Browns in addition to Thea. The second son of the Browns died in a car accident around 20 years ago, leaving his only daughter Yvonne. When Yvonne was a teenager, her mother took her abroad, and her mother married a man there. The fallen leaves always go back to their roots. Anyway, Yvonne's surname was still Brown. She returned home after graduating five years ago and served as the creative director of Brown's largest advertising company. Yvonne was born in a single parent family. Her personality was somewhat different. She looked beautiful, but her temperament was cold. And because of this, there were many young talents chasing her. At the age of 29, she was still single. Grandma Brown always felt that she owed something to Yvonne. She also took great care of and loved her. As long as she didn't like it, she had never forced her. Of course, there was also her selfishness. Yvonne's business mind in advertising creativity was too strong. Before, the Browns has sought cooperation with Sky film several times, and the biggest confidence was Yvonne! However, if the young master of the Lees really liked Yvonne, it didn't matter. After all, the relationship between the two families has long been well. At this time, grandma Brown's voice fell, which made Yvonne blush slightly. Many young people present were stunned by her beautiful face and noble and cold temperament. Carl, who was standing at the door of the hall, almost drooled. He nodded and said excitedly, "Grandma Brown, indeed, I fall in love with Yvonne. Please help me, Grandma Brown." Everyone's eyes were instantly focused on Yvonne! At this time, Yvonne was in front of Eric. Eric looked at Carl who proposed. If he remembered well, when they first came, it was this boy who whispered with other people and spoke ill of them! There was something wrong with the man. "What a pity." He looked at Yvonne again. Eric whispered. If Yvonne really agreed, it would be a pity for this beautiful woman. "What's a pity? What are you muttering behind, you freak?" Carl's eyes were sharp. Eric shook his head and sighed behind him. He was annoyed. Although Yvonne had no father, she was really beautiful, especially her cold and noble temperament. Even Carl unconsciously felt nervous around her. Eric shook his head and sighed, making him look like a cat stepped on its tail, pointing at Eric and shouting. Eric didn't care about Carl's clamor with a faint smile. Without waiting, Yvonne looked up: "grandma, I need to think about this marriage." "Yes, yes, it's a big deal. It's reasonable for you to consider, Yvonne." Carl was self-conscious and hurried. At the same time, he glared at Eric, blaming this loser! Yvonne nodded gently, looking indifferent and cold. In fact, she has refused Carl, but now there were too many people to say it directly. Although Carl had a good family background and was sincere enough, he was narrow-minded. He seemed to be a spoiled child and was not her type. Grandma Brown understood, smiled and said, "Carl, when the birthday party is over, let's discuss this again."
