Chapter 405 Owen is angry
Noon, the Ashford family villa.
The chefs prepared a sumptuous meal, and Maria and Blake helped to set the table with the dishes.
When Alexander and Ivy arrived home with the sextuplets, Maria eagerly approached them, "How was it? Where did you enroll the children in kindergarten? How much is the tuition?"
Ivy put down her bag and casually said, "The best noble kindergarten in the city, Sunshine Kindergarten. The tuition for all six children is 3 million per semester. However, the principal was rude, so Alexander bought the kindergarten and fired the principal directly!"
"What! He bought the kindergarten directly?" Blake exclaimed in astonishment, muttering to himself, "He really is a wealthy person...well, it's good that he bought it. This way, our children with Maria can have a backdoor entrance in the future..."
Maria: "..."
"Hey, who can help me move these books? Haven't the new housekeepers arrived yet?" Ethan's voice came from the entrance.
Everyone quickly ran outside and was shocked to find a small mountain of books at the entrance.
Annabel asked, "Alexander, why did you buy so many books? Are you planning to open a bookstore?"
Alexander smirked, "Grandma, these books are all for the children to read. Of course, you and Grandpa Richard can read them too. By the way, I wanted to let you know that Ivy and I will begin our honeymoon this afternoon and it will last for a week."
"Honeymoon?"
Upon hearing this, everyone temporarily changed their plans.
Maria and Blake had originally planned to return to their small hotel after lunch, but worried about the safety of the children, they decided to stay at the villa temporarily until Alexander and Ivy's honeymoon was over.
Annabel and Richard had planned to start their trip in the afternoon, but due to concerns about the sextuplets' safety, they also changed their travel plans and decided to wait until Alexander and Ivy's honeymoon was over before leaving.
Ivy was very moved by everyone's decision. With so many relatives helping to take care of the children, she had nothing to worry about.
However, the matter of work had not been properly resolved yet.
She immediately made a phone call to Dr. Wang, the director of the Jinjia Town Hospital, and explained the one-week honeymoon.
Dr. Wang was understanding and readily agreed, saying that it wouldn't be too late to return to work after the honeymoon.
After moving the books to the bookshelf, everyone quickly washed their hands and sat down to eat.
Just at that moment, Owen and Leo returned.
Both of them were wrapped in various packages, their faces almost invisible, like two shopping maniacs.
However, Owen seemed to be in a bad mood, pouting the whole time.
Annabel smiled and asked, "Owen, you bought so many things, and you're still not happy? Did something happen to make you unhappy? Tell Grandma about it!"
Owen grumbled in frustration, "It's all because of my apprentice! I kindly bought him a new pair of earrings, but when I called him to pick them up, he said he was too busy and asked me to keep the old ones. He only wanted the old ones, not the new ones. And he even..."
"The old earrings meant a lot to him. If it weren't for trying to please me, he would never have given them to me. Just listen to what he said, it really infuriated me!"
"Oh? What do the old ones look like? Can you show us?" Annabel smiled and reached out her hand.
Owen quickly took off a pair of old gold earrings from his own ear and placed them in Annabel's palm.
"Here! These earrings, what's so special about them? I only accepted this gift because I wanted something new at the time. Now I realize there are plenty of beautiful earrings...I don't want to talk about it, it just makes me angry. To make me accept this gift, he forcefully pierced two holes in my ears with a needle, and the pain kept me awake for many nights..."
Owen continued to complain, and everyone curiously gathered around, wanting to see what was going on.
They saw that the design of these earrings was very strange, with a big hoop and a small hoop, and a chain hanging below the big hoop, while the small hoop had no chain. On top of it were engraved two capital "L's," with a small heart in between.
"Two 'L's with a heart in between, what does it mean? Is it a brand?" Annabel couldn't understand, so she called out to Ivy, "Daughter-in-law, come take a look. What does this letter mean?"
Ivy had just finished washing her hands and drying them. She curiously took the small earring.
When she saw the special symbol engraved on the small earring, she froze on the spot. This couldn't be...
