Chapter 311 Old Man Nolan’s Birthday
However, all of them had neglected the fact that money no longer mattered much for a man at such an
advanced age like his grandfather, and that how precious South’s gift was for him
Feeling a lump in his throat, Silas reached out to caress the boy’s head, “Why don’t you play one for
your Great-Grandpa now?” In response to Silas’s suggestion, South spun around to face Old Man
Nolan. “Great-grandpa, would you like to listen to it?” Old Man Nolan nodded vigorously with his eyes
brimming with joy and affection. Out of all his children and grandchildren which made up nearly a
hundred people, none of them was able to make him this happy
While South was teaching the old man how to use the recording pen, he pressed the ‘play button and
soon, his crisp and clear voice came from the speaker: ‘Great-grandpa, here’s a compilation of jokes
for you and today, I’m going to tell you one of them! One day, Mason’s teacher was annoyed because
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthe was restless and had not been paying attention to the class. So, the teacher scolded him angrily,
“Mason, I’m not pleased to see you moving around like this. If you don’t sit still and focus during the
class, I’ll tell your father about this.” Then, Mason retorted with a frown on his head, “Sir, I’m not happy
about you either but I’ve never wanted to tell your father about this. Since both of us are guys, we
should settle this between ourselves. It’s really unmanly of you to tell my father about this behind my
back!
As soon as the recording ended, there was a smile on everyone’s face not because the joke was great,
but mostly because the little boy looked hilarious as he alternated between Mason’s role and the
teacher’s role. Grabbing South’s shoulder, Old Man Nolan exclaimed somewhat emotionally. “You’re a
good boy, South, and I love your gift very much.”
Giggling, South pressed the button to pause the recording before handing it back to Old Man Nolan,
“Great-grandpa, there are a lot more other jokes stored inside. Once you finish everything, I will record
more for you.” The moment Old Man Nolan took the pen, he could feel his heart fill up with warmth all
of a sudden. He held the boy’s hands affectionately and gazed at the little boy endearingly. “Great-
grandpa, Mommy has prepared something for you too.” With that, South gave Gianna a nudge toward
the old man. Staring at the little boy, Gianna complained, “My gift has been overshadowed by yours.“
Then, South edged closer to the old man and whispered next to his ears, “Great-grandpa, you may
secretly love my gift but on the outside, you have to pretend you love Mommy’s gift too. Otherwise, she
will be unhappy because she has spent many days choosing the gift!” Old Man Nolan went along with
his plan by nodding solemnly and showed him an OK gesture.
Gianna went speechless when she saw that Smiling with resignation, she took a step forward and
opened the box she was carrying in her arms. From the inside of the box, she took out a photo frame
which she handed to Old Man Nolan. “Grandpa, I hope this isn’t too shabby for you and I wish you
longevity and health!” While Old Man Nolan took over the photo frame with a look of utter surprise,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmeveryone else too inched closer trying to take a look at it. Feeling disturbed to see their gifts which
were worth several hundred thousands or even millions pale in comparison to the little boy’s recording
pen, they were curious to see what Gianna had prepared for the old man. There was a man and a
woman in the photo. The man was wearing the same suit Old Man Nolan was wearing now whereas
the woman, who had a graceful demeanor and a gentle expression, was wearing a dress with a
phoenix embroidered on her shoulder Obviously, they were wearing matching outfits, After a moment of
confusion, everyone examined the photo more closely and found that it was a photo of Old Man Nolan
and his wife in their younger days. Gianna had actually gifted him a photo of him and his wife, Then, all
of them looked frustrated with themselves for failing to come up with a similar idea. As for Old Man
Nolan, he was staring at the photo with his head held low and touching his wife in the photo with his
wrinkled hand Looking so pleased as though his lifetime dream was finally fulfilled, a drop of tear
trickled down his face all of a sudden,
