Chapter 1308 The Gift
Antonio, of course, knew that the person who took care of Selena was called over and instructed not to
tell her for the time being, lest she be distracted.
As for Osvaldo himself, he disliked anything that took Selena''s attention away from him, especially if it
involved others. Naturally, he wouldn''t tell Selena about it, indirectly resulting in Selena, as the fiancée
of the Anderson family, being thest person to find out that Antonio was celebrating his birthday.
Seeing Selena frowning, Leia said, "Madam Selena, don''t worry. Young Master will apany you
personally, and the gifts are all ready."
Selena thought that although it was not a big deal for an old man to celebrate his birthday, after all,
Antonio was Osvaldo''s grandfather. As his future fiancée, she couldn''t be too perfunctory.
With that in mind, Selena stood up and walked to the garden downstairs.
Leia followed Selena with a puzzled look and walked into her flower room where she usually painted
and wrote.
Selena walked to the desk, spread out a nk sheet of paper, picked up a pen, and started writing.
Leia couldn''t tell what Selena was writing at first, but when it took shape, Leia''s eyes widened in
amazement.
She was about to exim in surprise, but she suddenly realized that she might disturb Selena and
immediately covered her mouth, her ck eyes rolling around.
Leia looked at Selena standing behind the table. She was a slender girl, but there was a strong,
domain-like aura about her as she wrote. And... how did Madam Selena know that Antonio liked this so
much?!
After Selena finished writing, she carefully looked at it to make sure it was presentable. Then she put
down the brush and instructed Leia, "Bring it with us. Let''s go to the Anderson family."
Leia carefully picked up the piece of calligraphy, afraid that she might identally break it. She knew
that if she did, Antonio would have her head.
Just as Selena reached the door, she ran into Osvaldo, who hade to pick her up. Selena got into
the passenger seat, and Osvaldo drove towards the Anderson family.
...
The Anderson family, the head of the four major families, rarely weed guests. However, they
happened to be celebrating Antonio''s 80th birthday, which was a grand asion.
Antonio''s wife had passed away from illness in her early years, Cassius had been expelled from the

family, Osvaldo was always traveling, and Selena had not yet officially married into the family, leaving
only Benjamin and Lady Lauren as the two masters of the Anderson family.
Benjamin was cold and aloof, preferring to sleep rather than waste his time elsewhere.
Of course, no one in the whole capital had the privilege to invite the big shot to attend to them. Lady
Lauren, however, enjoyed being a part of the excitement, especially when it concerned her daughter-in-
The group of men who knew the true nature of the Anderson family were sweating coldly, acting
extremely polite and fearing to upset Lady Lauren, lest Benjamin would publicly kick them out.
Compared to other youngdies, Vivian was a regr visitor to the Anderson family. She dressed
especially brightly and beautifully today to show off her unique honor. She walked up to Lady Lauren
with a smile and called her "Madam" affectionately.
Lady Lauren looked at the Shaw siblings and casually avoided the hand that Vivian reached out to her.
She said with a smile, "Osvaldo and Selena haven''te back yet. You can sit in the hall for a while."
Since Lady Lauren had spoken, naturally, no one dared to express any other opinions.
Vivian walked into the hall familiarly and was surrounded by a group of youngdies. Although the
Shaw family lost the research department to the Turner family, they still had a long way to go before
they fell into decline. Therefore, Vivian was still one of the four great youngdies.
Moreover, everyone knew that only Vivian and Constance, because of their rtionship with Freddie
and Dante, had the privilege of visiting the Anderson family frequently.
Constance had be a joke, and only Vivian could please many youngdies with ttery.
A youngdy asked nervously, "Miss Shaw, do you know what Master Antonio likes?"
Since it was rare to have the opportunity to enter the Anderson family''s gates, everyone wanted to
please Master Antonio. Moreover, it was his 80th birthday, so it wouldn''t be good if they gave him a gift
he didn''t like.
Vivian lifted her chin high and smiled, "Master Antonio used to live in the suburban area and rarely
came back to his family. I''m not sure about this."
The group of youngdies looked at Vivian''s proud expression and knew that she was not telling the
truth. If she really didn''t know what Master Antonio liked, then the expression on her face would be just
like theirs, and she would not be so confident.
Many youngdies looked down on Vivian''s superior attitude deep down.
She was able to establish a rtionship with the Anderson family thanks to the bond she shared with
Freddie and Osvaldo, whom she grew up with, and not because of any connection with Vivian herself.
In terms of looks, talent, and even background, Vivian was not outstanding among the many young
nor as good as Winnie and Penelope. Not to mention theter up-anding Miss Turner.
As for her appearance, Vivian was not exceptional.
Even in terms of family background, she was the least distinguished among those top-tier socialites.
Vivian''s narrow-mindedness was evident from her deliberate concealment of Master Antonio''s
preferences while her expression clearly showed her desire to make a name for herself.
"Miss Shaw, I don''t know what she''s being arrogant about," whispered a youngdy who couldn''t stand
Vivian''s false appearance to another youngdy next to her.
"The Shaw family owes its position today to the power they stole from the Turner family when they took
advantage of the situation."
"With the Turner family''s momentum, it''s only a matter of time before they take back the research
institute. Then, it''s hard to say if she can still be arrogant..."
Although the youngdy''s voice was low, Vivian still heard a hint of it. She walked over to the two
youngdies in high heels and asked coldly, "What were you talking about just now?"
The two youngdies, who were also proud and dissatisfied with Vivian, had even more unpleasant
expressions when she publicly questioned them.
The youngdy who spoke first sneered, "Nothing, we were just discussing Miss Turner."
"She''s definitelying today to wish Master Antonio a happy birthday. With her talent, the gift she
gives to Master Antonio will surely be better than anything anyone else here can offer."
