Chapter 219


    Hunter took a closer look and felt it was indeed pretty good.


    The man saw Hunter didn’t respond for a while and added, “Mr. Galeana, this is a rare find. Many


    people have asked us to keep an eye out for such antiques. They''re so scarce that it usually takes a


    long time to find the right one. To get one in just a few days is pretty lucky.”


    “Do you have a certificate of authenticity?” Hunter asked.


    “Yes, ourpany has had it professionally appraised. It’s the real deal.” The manager handed the


    certificate to Hunter.


    Hunter cracked a smile after looking at it, “Wrap it up for me then, I''ll take this pair. Pack it nicely. It''s


    a gift for my grandson,” Hunter instructed, his voice filled with cheer, clearly in a good mood.


    “Rest assured, Mr. Galeana, we''ll make sure you''re pleased.” The manager said.


    Ss was also satisfied and smiled, “Chairman, I think it''s pretty good too. Ines should like it.”


    “As long as you don’t say it’s from me, she’d refuse it otherwise with her stubbornness.” Hunter


    said.


    Ss nodded, “Don’t worry, I know the drill.”


    “Is Emma confirmed to be having a single baby?” Hunter asked again.


    “Yes, the baby''s gender has been confirmed. It''s a girl.” Ss said.


    Hunter''s expression grew serious, “How did the Ramos family react?”


    “The elders of the Ramos family were naturally not very pleased, but they didn’t say much.”


    “I told her not to marry into that family, but she insisted. What good cane out of a family that


    favors boys over girls?” Hunter said.


    Seeing Hunter getting worked up, Ss advised, “Please don’t worry too much. She’s already


    married, and you’ve tried to talk her out of it. She didn’t listen.”


    Ines watched the people not far away with mixed emotions. Ss had said he woulde back


    today, she hadn’t expected to run into him here. He looked much better, but seemed to have lost


    some weight.


    He started shopping as soon as he got back.


    Phoebe also overheard their conversation. The twins Hunter was talking about were obviously Ines.


    Hunter was picking out gifts for the kids. He was quite sincere, hunting for antiques with such a big


    budget.


    Phoebe looked at Ines and asked, “Izzy, are we going in?”


    Ines slightly lifted the corners of her mouth, “Let''s go somewhere else.”


    Cam had never met Hunter and didn''t know he was Ines''s father. She just felt that the


    atmosphere was a bit off and curiously nced at Hunter a few more times, but didn''t ask any


    questions.


    To avoid running into Hunter, the three of them didn''t go to the jewelry store. Instead, they went


    straight up to the fourth floor, which specialized in baby products.


    Phoebe said somewhat helplessly, “Looks like we can''t splurge today. I''ll have to pick some cheaper


    stuff.” She had originally nned to give jewelry, but Hunter had beaten her to it. Besides, as an


    elder, he was more suited to give such gifts, symbolizing good wishes.


    Ines didn''t say anything, but based on her understanding of Ines and her acting as the interim


    chairman of the Galeana Group, her attitude towards Hunter had begun to soften. Forgiving Hunter


    might just be a matter of time.


    Phoebe pointed at a baby crib nearby, “What about this one?”


    Ines''s eyes lit up. It looked pretty good, but it seemed to be two connected together. She couldn''t


    help but ask the salesperson, “Why are they connected?”


    “This is a twin crib designed specifically for twins. Twins are used to being together in the womb and


    they might not be used to being separated at first. Our store is the only one that sells these cribs. If


    it''s twins, this one is perfect. If it''s a single baby, please walk further down, there are more suitable


    options there.” The salesperson exined with a smile.


    “It is twins.” Phoebe said excitedly.


    Cam alsoughed and said, “Izzy, some twins are indeed like this. They like to be together at the


    beginning, and you can''t separate them, or they''ll fuss all day.”


    Ines smiled slightly, “I see.” Seeing a glimmer of hope, the salesperson continued to exin, “This


    crib is made of the best natural wood. If you smell it, there''s a subtle fragrance. It''s breathable and


    can regte temperature and humidity. The paint on it is also lead-free and non-toxic. It won''t harm


    the baby''s health.”


    Seeing Ines was interested, Phoebe immediately bought it and picked out a stroller in the same


    store. Ines left the Meyer family''s address, asking the store to deliver it in a few days.


    When they came out, they ran into Emma arguing with ady in her fifties. The two of them were


    having a heated discussion and both looked extremely upset.


    Phoebe sneered, “This hypocritical sister sure has a knack for running into us. We bumped into her


    while shoppingst time, and here she is again. You should remember that woman, she''s Aiden''s


    mother.”


    Ines watched their interaction, which didn''t seem to be pleasant.

    “Let''s go and ignore them. They''re annoying to even look at.” Phoebe said, linking arms with Ines.


    Just as the three of them were about to leave, they saw thedy rudely push Emma, who was


    pregnant. Emma was caught off guard and fell to the ground, one hand propping her up and the


    other clutching her belly.


    Thedy bent down to help Emma up. But Emma, clearly furious, jerked her hand away. Thedy,


    not one to be trifled with, red at Emma and walked away in annoyance.
