Chapter 322 Present
Julian had caused quite amotion in front of the Wright mansion.
The servant at the entrance went into the mansion in a hurry and reported to George and Luna,
"Madam, Marshal. Bad news, bad news!"
"What is going on?” George’s eyes bulged widely.
Luna was calmer than her husband. She darted a gaze at the servant, and asked, "What''s
happening out there? Calm down and tell us everything you see."
"Madam, there''s a group of people outside of the mansion. They brought along plenty of luxurious
gifts with them, and I even saw one of them holding a bank card. It seems like they’reing to
give us a gift," the servant replied in a flurry.
''Gifts?''
Both George and Luna were stunned.
Oliver had just been arrested for suspected corruption and bribery, and now somebody brazenly
appeared in front of their house with a bunch of luxury gifts?
Did they really want them to fall so much?
"Conspiracy. This must be a conspiracy!" Anna hissed exasperatedly.
"Someone is indeed after us. He or she won''t stop until we hit rock bottom," Serenity sneered.
Then, she rose t o her feet and stormed outside. "Let me go and chase them away."
At the entrance, Julian ordered his men to put everything back into the boxes. Just as he was about
t o ask the doorman to inform the Wrights of their arrival, Serenity dashed out with a cold expression
on her face.
"Who are you? Forget about it. I don''t care who you are, the Wrights don''t wee you here. Get
lost, now!" Serenity snarled out in fury. Her delicate face was lined with anger.
Susan was taken aback slightly when she saw Serenity. However, she soon came around to her
senses and said, "You are Serenity, right? I am..."
"Hah, you even know about my name? I guess you must''ve done your homework well." Serenity
sneered," Let me tell you. Even if my brother is facing some problems right now, the Wrights are no
pushovers. We''ll never fall so easily so don''t ever think that you clowns can bring us down with your
petty tricks! Now, pack your stuff and get the hell out of here!"
Looking at the beauty in front of her, Susan did not know what to say.
Suddenly, a happy voice rang out, "Susie?"
George and Luna hade out as well.
It was only then Susan that let out a sigh, "Hi, Mom."
"What brings you here today?" Luna was overjoyed. She quickly went forward to hold Susan in her
arms a s she said, "You''re pregnant, you shouldn’t walk around so much."
Luna was very happy about their arrival. Just as she was chirping around Susan like a happy bird,
Julian''s deep voice rang out, "Why don''t we go in first?"
"Oh yes, silly me. Let''s go in," Luna hastily said. When she saw the four people behind Julian, she
shot a confused gaze at him.
If it were someone else, then it went without saying that he or she had to be framing them for giving
them a gift at such a crucial moment. However, if it were Julian...

Julian threw a knowing gaze at Luna and said," Madam Wright, I’ve got a favor to ask so I brought
along a few gifts with me. You must ept them."
"If you''ve got anything to say, then say it here. You don''t have to give us any gifts at all!" George
shouted, which earned a stare from Luna as she hissed, "Shut u
p."
George fell silent instantly.
Luna then turned and looked knowingly at Julian.
Then, she said, "Alright then, let''s go in."
They then returned to the mansion as a sh of surprise crossed Serenity''s eyes.
''Susie? Is she Susan Shelby? Is she that biological
daughter that Mom and Dad lost 25 years ago?’
A surge ofplex feelings swelled in Serenity''s chest.
After they entered the house, Julian wiped the smile o n his face and said, "Marshal and Madam
Wright, could you ask the servants to leave the room first? I''ve got something personal to discuss
with you."
"What is the thing you want to talk to us about? You can just say it. There are no secrets in the
Wright family," George proimed.
Luna didn''t even want to look at him this time. She just stomped at his foot before sending all the
servants away as Julian had asked.
One after the other, the servants began to file out of the living room after receiving the order. While
they were retreating, a few of them studied the pile of presents through the corner of their eyes with
a puzzled expression on their face.
Marshal Wright was still hissing in pain after being stomped by Luna on his foot. He threw a nce
at Julian and asked, "What did you want to talk to us about, brat?"
"I hope you can ept these gifts," Julian said with a smile.
The four men behind him then began to open the box one after another.
"This bank card has ten million dors in it.
"This is the highest quality Earl Grey tea. It costs around a hundred thousand dors per gram, and
I think there are 3 to 4 grams here.
"This is a full set of jewelry handcrafted by the top jewelry designer in the world. I think it fits Madam
Wright very well.
"This one over here is with a younger design for Anna.
"This one is for Serenity.
"I''ve also brought with me four brand-new cars.
Marshal Wright, Madam Wright, Serenity, and Oliver, each of you would have one. Here are the car
keys." Julian began to list out the presents that he brought today.
Everyone was stunned.
Even though the Wrights were very influential in the military, they were far inferior to the Shaws
when it came to money. This was because Marshal Wright wasn''t someone who cared a lot about
money.
Other than the mansion and the servants, all of the Wrights’ properties were bestowed upon them
by the government. Aside from the 5,000,000 dors that the government awarded to Marshal
Wright as a reward for his outstanding service as well as the bonuses Oliver gained from
meritorious service, they could only amass their fortune through a paycheck.
The condition of their family was far better than an ordinary family, but it was nothing when
compared to
Marshal Wright''s meritorious service.
As such, the Wrights had never had any problems putting food on their table so they were all
stunned when Julian showered them with so many opulent gifts.
Anna was the first one toe around to her senses. She shouted, "Why does Serenity have a car
but I don’t?"
Before Julian could answer, Jacob threw her a sidelong nce and interrupted, "Have you gotten
your car license yet?"
Anna suddenly fell silent. It was only now that she regretted not putting in more effort to get her car
license while she was studying in university.
Compared to Anna, who was surrounded with gloomy air, Serenity was genuinely surprised.
Julian was fair to all of them. Basically, she had everything Anna had. The only thing Anna didn''t get
that Serenity got was the car.
''But... she''s just an adopted daughter.''
Even though Susan did not know what Julian was nning, she was happy to see that he didn''t
discriminate against Anna or Serenity.
Seeing the hesitance on Serenity’s face, Susan smiled and said, "Serenity, since we''re the same
age, I''ll call you by your name. We''re siblings, so you don''t have to feel pressured to ept the
gifts. Look at Anna, she’s s
o happy.”
Serenity looked at Anna and saw her already trying on the jewelry.
"Of course I''m happy. These gifts are given to me by m y sister. I’m not like some pretentious and
ungrateful woman,” Anna said.
Serenity rolled her eyes at Anna, and surprisingly, she didn''t say anything in return.
She turned to Susan and sighed inwardly.
Truth be told, this wasn''t something she expected. In her vision, she thought she’d be consumed by
her rage, jealousy, and anger when she saw Susan. However, when the moment came, Serenity
realized that she wasn’t able to hate her at all. Her gaze was so pure and innocent that it could melt
her heart and dispel all the negative thoughts in her mind.
With that thought in mind, Serenity said, "I''ll dly ept my presents, then."
"Alright." Susan smiled and nodded.
