Chapter 671
In an instant, applause thundered!
“Although Chairman Thompson didn’t give Celeste any houses or
jewelry, he injected $5 billion into the foundation! It is already a grand gesture!”
“A typical wealthy lady’s birthday banquet would usually consist of gifts like jewelry, but Chairman
Thompson is so creative. This meant something important to Celeste! When word gets out, it will boost
Celeste’s image and increase the popularity of the Thompson family. It’s a win-win situation!”
Under the stage, Nigel, Lance, and Asher sat at the same table.
“Ahem… What kind of technology and anti-aging methods did this old geezer use behind my back?
Why isn’t he showing signs of aging?”
Lance muttered with jealousy and asked Asher, who was sitting
beside him. “Asher, what’s your father’s skincare routine? How does
he manage to look so young? Come on, tell me the secret.”
“He must have put on a little makeup,” Asher smiled humbly.
These two friends had been competing about their appearance for
decades!
“Oh! I knew it!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLance suddenly inched closer, winking. “Which makeup artist did your
father hire? The result is quite natural. Can you introduce them to
me?”
Asher was speechless.
Listening on the side, Nigel could not help but feel amused.
The Thompson family sat at one table, happily clapping at this
moment.
Amelia watched as her mother held back tears of joy on the stage. Suddenly, she could not hold back
and cried silently.
“Amelia?”
Mila sat beside Amelia and noticed that the latter was crying. Panicking, Mila hurriedly took some
tissues and passed them to her under the table, asking softly, “Why are you crying, darling?”
“It’s nothing… It’s nothing, Aunt Mila.”
Amelia took the tissues and wiped her tears, saying in a trembling voice, “I’m just so happy for Mom.”
Mila’s heart warmed, and she gently stroked Amelia’s silky hair.
In their complex family, the other kids, including Bella, still kept a
distance. Only this youngest child treated her like a real mother.
Although Mila did not mind the others, it still warmed her heart.
“Yeah, you should be happy.”
“Actually… I’ve always thought that Dad didn’t care much about Mom.”
Amelia wondered what had gotten into her tonight, with many
emotions flooding her mind. “I’m also the most useless daughter.
Your daughter is the future First Lady of Sentania, and Bella was not

only a goddess in the jewelry industry, but she could also manage the
hotel for Dad. But I don’t know anything. I could only drag all of you
down.”
“Amelia, don’t think like that.”
Mila felt upset and hugged Amelia. “Your father had told us many
times in private that he hoped you, the youngest daughter of the
Thompson family, could be a carefree and pampered lady at home.
To him, his children’s accomplishments are not important. What
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmatters is that you all have a happy and smooth life. Also, your father
loves you and your mother. Although he doesn’t say it, it doesn’t
mean he doesn’t love you. We need to judge by his actions, right?”
Listening to Mila’s words, Amelia leaned on her shoulder, nodding
with tears in her eyes.
Soon, several prominent guests presented their gifts, all valued at
millions of dollars.
In front of the richest family in Hatchbay, anything less than that
would make them look like fools.
“The next gift is from Christopher Iverson, the fourth son of Group’s Chairman!”
Just as the emcee’s voice fell, a spotlight shone on Christopher.
Everyone subconsciously glanced at the Thompson family’s tabl including Bella. She slightly turned her
head, curiously looking at Christopher, who remained calm and composed.
“He prepared a gift privately?!”
Charles’ gaze darkened as he gritted his teeth. “He’s so calculative.

He’s always thinking about pleasing the Thompson family and showing off!”
“What’s the point of it?”
