    f Kranson City. The manor upied. which meant that the entire mountain


    The Grant Manor was located in the nort almost the entire Kranson North Mount was the Grant


    family’s backyard. Moreover, the manor itself had more than 200 years of history, so the design of


    the manor was not in the popr architectural style seen everywhere. Instead, it retained some


    ancient style from 200 years ago and was designed by a famous architect.


    There was a famous saying in Kranson City, Fortunes mighte and go but the Grant family


    would never fall. The Grant family represented the foundation of wealth in Kranson City.


    Besides being unable to finish touring thend in a day, the manor was equally rich. It upied an


    area of about 6000 square feet and was divided into five floors. It has a two–story basement and a


    three–story living area.


    Basement level one was the entertainment area. There was a chess room, a singing hall, a


    screening hall, and so on. It was convenient for arge family to y in when they gathered.


    On the second floor of the basement, there were two areas. One was filled with luxury cars, and the


    other half was the underground collection room. Sophia went to the collection room.


    The Grant family was prestigious. Even if their forefathers were not avid collectors, they still had


    countless treasures over the years. Although many had. been distributed among the branches, the


    treasures in the manor were still enough to overshadow many small museums.


    For this reason, the Grant family even imed to have a world–ss advanced security system.


    The entire manor was impregnable. However, most of the things. there were art and antiques. They


    could be given as gifts but were a little strange to give to a mother–inw.


    Sophia walked around the collection room until Nn came looking for her. Sophia quickly got


    down to business and asked Nn to help her choose a gift.


    “So it’s the inw’s birthday. We should really give something good,” Nn remarked.

    Nn was not a petty person. He immediately waved his hand and asked the butler to bring a top–


    grade goldenwood gift box. Sophia took a look and was happy. She quickly asked the butler to send


    to Noria Group.


    Hence, when Matthew came out of the conf already waiting at the door. Without saying Grant,

    Matthew immediately red at Charles and asked, “What’s going on?”


    Charles broke out in a cold sweat from being red at. He quickly put the phone to Matthew’s car.


    Sophia was full of energy on the other end of the phone. “Matthew, you brat. Do you know that


    today is your mother–inw’s birthday? You fool. You’re the new son–inw. Don’t you even know


    how to give gifts to her?”


    Matthew was puzzled. He thought, ‘My mother–inw’s birthday? Valerie did not


    mention this to me.


    Thinking of Ruth’s face that day and Valerie’s embarrassment, Matthew understood that Valerie


    must have deliberately not told him.


    “Grandma.” M?tthew rubbed the space between his eyebrows. “I’ll take care of my own matters.


    Since Valerie didn’t tell me, it probably isn’t important.”


    Sophia was furious on the other end of the phone. If she were there in person, she would probably


    be so angry that she would strangle Matthew. She didn’t know how she raised such a stupid


    grandson. “That’s your mother–inw. It’s her 50th birthday. How can you say that it’s not


    important?”


    Matthew froze for a moment. “I’ll listen to Valerie.” He could tell that Valerie had been mistreated by


    her mother when she was growing up. Her parents didn’t dote on their children but kept squeezing


    their daughter dry. He would not respect that kind of elder. Valerie deliberately did not tell him.


    Clearly, she did not want him to interfere.


    Sophia was stunned when she heard this. Matthew was someone who could intimidate the entire


    family with one look. Even the elders were intimidated before him. She did not expect Matthew to be


    henpecked.


    Sophia sighed and exined, “I have been through this before. Listen to my advice.

    Valerie from being sandwiched between the two of you. You still don’t know, right? Because you


    didn’t go to the birthday party, Valerie was scolded. badly by her mother at the party…”


    “What?” This time, Matthew’s expression changed. He nced at Charles, and Charles quickly


    nodded. He was not sure either, but the person on the phone just now did say that.


    Unexpectedly, Matthew, who had been standing still just now, suddenly took the gift box from


    Charles and walked toward the elevator without a word.


    “Address,” came Matthew’s cold, hard voice!


    Charles was stunned. When he came back to his senses, he quickly raised his voice. “Mr. Grant, it’s


    the Spring Hotel. The driver is already in the underground parking. lot…”


    Before Charles could finish speaking, the elevator had already closed. Matthew did not look for a


    driver. He drove the business car outside the door toward the Spring Hotel.
