“Dad, what Snow said is right. If Damien hadn’t asked us to come back today, we would’ve planned to visit you in a few days,” Dillon echoed.
Mr. Riddle Sr. snorted, not inclined to believe Dillon’s words. He was content as long as they did not want to harm him.
“Grandpa, it’s true that they’re concerned about you,” Nicole suddenly spoke up.
Everyone in the room looked at Nicole in surprise. They could not understand why she would speak up for Dillon’s family.
Mr. Riddle Sr. was also puzzled and looked at Nicole, asking, “Is that so?”
“Of course,” Nicole said calmly and confidently.
Snow squinted her eyes in suspicion. What was Nicole trying to do now?
Smiling lightly, Nicole continued, “The other day at the charity event, I had my eyes on a peace buckle and planned to bid for it as a gift for you, Grandpa. But unexpectedly, Snow won the bid. I assume she wanted to give it to you too. it
Sean saw Nicole’s cunning expression and played along. “I remember the competition for that peace buckle was quite intense. Turns out, it was you two who were competing to
give a gift to Grandpa.”
“I see. I was so confused that I was thinking to myself ‘Why would people bid so hard for a peace buckle?'” Steve added before looking at Snow. “Well, at the end of the day, you won. I think this means
that you’re the most filial grandchild in the Riddle family.”
Snow was helpless as she responded with a smile, “Y-Yeah.
“I thought that giving it to Grandpa would be the best choice, but I didn’t know you also intended to do the same. If I had known, I would’ve given it to you,” Snow said with a hint of guilt.
“I think it’s also a great idea for you to give it to Grandpa. Uncle Dillon just said he’s planning to visit so I believe you were planning to give it to Grandpa at that time, right?” Nicole said politely.
Snow reluctantly agreed, “Yes, that’s right.”
Nicole smiled as she saw how forced, reluctant, and heartbroken Snow was.
Nicole had achieved her goal, so she did not want to bother with Dillon’s family anymore. Feeling good, she turned her gaze back to chatting with Ellar.
Dillon’s family was upset after being fooled but all they could do was act calm.
Dillon smiled at Mr. Riddle Sr. and said, “Dad, I figured there were too many people around today, and it was a bit ostentatious. So, I thought of bringing it to you next time.”
“Thanks.” Mr. Riddle Sr.’s expression remained indifferent. It seemed that he was not too pleased with the gifts they gave.
Karen’s face looked extremely unsightly as she glared at Nicole. She could not help but think that Nicole had done it on purpose. ‘It’s 3 million dollars! How could she do this?!’
However, in such a situation, they could only swallow their anger. What can they do? Say that it was not for Mr. Riddle Sr.? That would be even more embarrassing.
Besides, Mr. Riddle Sr. was upset and had his guard up against them. If they were reluctant to give him that peace buckle, things would only take a turn for the worse.
“Mr. Riddle Sr., dinner is ready,” the butler informed.
After glancing at everyone, Mr. Riddle Sr. said, “Let’s eat.”
Soon, the whole family gathered in the dining room, and the previously empty space suddenly became lively.
After all the dishes were served, Mr. Riddle Sr. invited everyone to start eating.
