chapter 1644


    Everyone saw Adaming their way with a box at hand.


    He walked toward Charmine and handed the box to her, saying, "Charmine, I brought you the thing you


    want to give the vige chief."


    Charmine epted it and looked at the vige chief. "Grandma, I was going to give this to youter at


    home. Since my father is here, I might as well give it to you now."


    The vige chief smiled. "Okay, Charmine, thank you. Gifts are a bonus, but I''m already very happy


    that you attended my celebration."


    Charmine smiled.


    Zoe stood transfixed on her spot.


    The box looked very high-end. What if Charmine bought something very expensive?


    If so, even if her handcraft was delicate, the vigers, who had not seen so much money before, would


    like it more!


    Zoe narrowed her eyes and looked at Charmine cautiously.


    Charmine opened the delicate box and poured out the contents...


    Were those a pile of wood in all shapes?


    "Ha...!"


    Zoeughed mockingly. "Ms. Jordan, do you know what asion this is? It''s our vige chief''s


    birthday! Even if you didn''t prepare any gift, don’t just bring out some random...wood blocks? Hahaha!


    Oh, how funny you are. Do you think our vige chief is three years old that she''d y with this?"


    The vigers dared not say anything to Charmine due to her status. They did not say anything, even


    when she did not have a gift.


    This, however, was the breaking point.


    She actually brought some random woods as a gift?


    She showed no respect!


    One of themittee members could not help saying, "Ms. Jordan, you... If you don''t have a gift, we


    won''t say anything, but don’t embarrass our vige chief in front of everyone."


    With that said, the women who had been trying to hold back finally spoke up, ''That’s right. Our vige


    chief treats you so well, and she’s always helped you unconditionally!" "She insisted on your innocence


    and fully supported you when you were that close to being kicked out of the vige!" "City folks are so


    proud of themselves! They think they''re rich, and that they can humiliate anyone." "Why would she


    bring out a pile of wood? What an insult!" "She''s crossed the line now. How rude!"


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    Hearing their rude remarks of Charmine, Adam''s expression darkened.


    What did these people know? They had not even seen the gift in its entirety, yet their usations were


    long and winded already! 1


    Adam, unable to stomach all of this, was about to speak when the vige chief waved it off. "Everyone,


    stop talking! Charmine knows I get bored during the day and lets me y with these to get my brain


    going. It''s nice!"


    The women were speechless, while Zoe was livid.


    "Vige chief, she did this to you, yet you’re still protecting her?"


    The vige chief was so biased!


    The gift she gave her was so delicate and unique, but not a praise came from her apart from a simple


    thank-you.


    Charmine gave the vige chief a reassuring look and smiled at the scorns. She looked up and fixed


    her eyes on those who started this. "I haven''t given my gift. What''s the hurry? It hasn''t started yet, so


    don''t speak too soon."


    That obviously caught Zoe by surprise. "What?" she blurted.


    Charmine ignored her and looked at the stacks of wood in front of her, piecing them together.


    When everyone heard her words, they gathered and watched her.


    They saw...


    It was as if her hands had magical power that the randomly shaped wood pieces somehow merged


    under her hands.
