Chapter 169

Before entering the hall, Delbert had already noticed that the families of his two brothers were all

present except for Kenny.

“I don’t want to talk about that brat!”

Mr. Carlson Sr. became angry at the mention of Kenny.

“I’m here, grandfather. Please don’t be mad at me!”

A low, hoarse voice suddenly sounded, and it was none other than Kenny. He strolled leisurely into the

room from outside, his cold and fierce gaze passing over Delbert before quickly shifting away after

pausing on Harriet.

Looking at Delbert, he sneered mockingly, “I didn’t expect you and

sister-in-law to attend grandfather’s 80th birthday celebration. I haven’t seen you for half a month. I

thought you would never come out of your island retreat.”

Delbert’s expression darkened.

“As the eldest grandson, I naturally should attend grandfather’s 80th birthday celebration. The

shareholders’ meeting to appoint the next head of the Carlson Group is convening in half a month. By

then, I’ll leave the island. You don’t need to concern yourself with that.”

Kenny chuckled, “Heh, we’ll talk about that when the time comes.”

Listening to the back-and-forth between the two brothers, Harriet felt extreme pity for Delbert.

Why was he subjected to such cold treatment from the members of the Carlson family?

How dare this fool glare at him?

“Delbert, let’s not pay attention to this scoundrel. Let’s go and give grandfather his birthday gift,” Harriet

said, not looking at Kenny and instead tugging at Delbert’s sleeve, signaling him to ignore Kenny.

Delbert listened to his future wife and went to present the gift to Mr.

Carlson Sr.

At the moment they turned around, Harriet inadvertently looked up and saw a sharp glint in Kenny’s

eyes as he looked at her.

“Grandfather, this is a painting personally selected by Harriet and me. It’s an authentic work by Vincent

van Gogh. We hope you like it,” Delbert received the gift from Cory and opened it.

Inside was a well-packaged painting. He slowly unpacked it in front of Mr. Carlson Sr. and the other

members of the Carlson family.

Upon receiving the painting, Mr. Carlson Sr. was excited, “Authentic works by Vincent van Gogh are

hard to come by nowadays. Delbert, Harriet, thank you so much!”

“Grandpa, I don’t know much about paintings. It’s Delbert who thought it looked good and said you

would definitely like it, so I bought it. If anyone should be praised, it should be Delbert.”

Harriet pretended to be silly, but every word she said was meant for Delbert’s good.

“Wonderful, both of you deserve praise!” Mr. Carlson Sr. beamed happily.

Seeing how the couple had instantly won Mr. Carlson Sr.’s favor with just one piece of authentic

painting, other members of the Carlson family showed obvious envy and jealousy.

Observing how much Mr. Carlson Sr. adored Harriet, Monica felt extremely dissatisfied.

She couldn’t understand why this fool could gain her grandfather’s

favor.

Seeing Harriet being admired by everyone and being protected by Mr. Carlson Sr., Monica became

agitated. She subconsciously clenched her fingers until they turned white.

This fool had already stolen her cousin from her, and now she dared to steal her own grandfather’s

affection from her again?

It was impossible for her to bear it!

“Grandfather, I also prepared a gift for you. Why didn’t you praise me? Don’t you like me anymore?”

Monica couldn’t stand Harriet’s behavior in front of Mr. Carlson Sr., so she immediately walked over

and pushed Harriet aside.

Taking her grandfather’s arm, she acted cute.
