Chapter 255 Warm-hearted Family Members 2

Grandfather suppressed his tears and quickly asked Father Howard to bring his things. In a short while, Father Howard came over with a bag, which was a gift that Grandfather had prepared in advance.

First, Grandfather took out a large box from the bag. When he opened it, a bracelet was inside. Grandfather handed the box to Madison and said, "Madison, this bracelet was worn by your grandmother when she was young. I gave it to her as a token of our love. Now, your grandparents are giving one of them to you and keeping the other one for your brother. This is also the blessing your grandparents have for you."

Madison looked at the green bracelet in the box. Even in the house, it shone crystal clear, with a uniform color and delicate texture, without any impurities. Not to mention the value of the bracelet, which was just the blessing and love from Grandfather that moved Madison deeply, she held the box and looked at Grandfather and Grandmother with clear eyes, sincerely saying, "Thank you, Grandfather. Thank you, Grandmother."

Grandfather erupted into hearty laughter and, reaching into his bag, pulled out a crimson notebook. Laying it before Madison, her eyes widened as she recognized it as a deed to the property. "This villa belongs to your grandparents," he declared, sliding the document across the table. "I'm passing it on to your family. Remember, you'll always have a home here."

Madison instinctively protested, "Grandfather, this is far too precious. I simply can't accept it." Equally taken aback, Matthew knew all too well the incalculable value of a siheyuan in Emerald Isle City—truly a treasure beyond the reach of mere wealth. The thought that Grandfather would bestow such a lavish gift upon their first meeting was beyond their wildest imaginations.

Gazing at the benevolent old man, Matthew vowed earnestly, "Grandfather, please be at peace, knowing that with or without this house, Emerald Isle City will always be Madison's home. We will surely return often to visit."

Grandfather looked at Matthew with a relieved expression and nodded repeatedly, "Good, good, good. Just come back often to visit. You can accept the house. Grandfather and Grandmother are old, anyway. Sooner or later, it will be yours."

Madison still wanted to refuse, but Matthew held her hand. Their eyes met, and Madison understood his meaning. Since Grandfather insisted on giving it, accepting it would also put the older man's mind at ease. The value of this house was probably unknown to Grandfather and Grandmother themselves. They wanted to give their granddaughter the only things they had and make up for the regrets of not finding her for so many years.

Madison took the red notebook, and her eyes glistened. "Thank you, Grandfather and Grandmother. We will definitely come back home often."

After seeing them accept the gifts, the grandparents sat down happily. They then took out the gifts for Quentin and Hannah. Quentin and Hannah immediately handed the gifts to their mother, and Great-grandfather couldn't help but give them a thumbs up and praise them.

Grandfather was the youngest of three siblings in his generation, with an elder brother and sister who had both passed away. Although he only had one child, Father Howard, his brother and sister had several children. His brother had three children, while his sister had four. After getting married, they all had at least two children each, with some even having more than Quentin and Hannah, like Madison. Madison silently observed and was a bit shocked. But she also felt extremely happy because these were her family members. Madison and Matthew had never lived together with such a large family before, so being able to gather with everyone felt really nice.

With the eldest family members, Grandfather and Grandmother, starting the gift-giving, Madison became dumbfounded as she received a true abundance of gifts. After Madison, her husband, and their two little ones had just thanked Grandfather and Grandmother and returned to their seats, the procession of gifts continued without end, reminiscent of a bustling market. Each family, according to their seniority, brought their prepared gifts forward, and despite Mother Howard introducing the identities of the gift-givers, Madison felt overwhelmed and couldn't remember how to address each person properly. All she could do was nod and express her gratitude repeatedly. Moreover, the gifts they received were quite valuable, ranging from high-end handbags and jewelry to even cars and houses. Although the houses were not as extravagant as Grandfather's mansion, a large flat in Emerald Isle City still held a considerable value.

No one gave Madison a chance to react or refuse the gifts. The whole process felt like working on an assembly line, with one group smilingly stuffing gifts into their hands before quickly stepping aside for the next group to take over. This cycle continued endlessly, and Madison had become a truly wealthy woman. She looked at Matthew with a mixture of tears and laughter, and at this point, he could no longer contain his expression.

After the gift-giving ceremony was over, the women sat in the living room, chatting away. The men had their topics to discuss while the kids played on their own. Two children came over and invited Quentin and Hannah to play together. The kids quickly became friends. In the living room, someone noticed the dress Mother Howard was wearing. "Your dress is so beautiful! The design is amazing. Where did you buy it? I want to buy one for my mom, too."

Madison turned her head and saw a stylish young girl taking an interest in the dress she had designed. She remembered her as Paul Nelson's daughter, whom her mother had introduced as her sister. Madison was shocked at how young this sister looked. She had thought she was the younger one.

Mother Howard smiled and looked down at her dress with pride. "Madison personally designed and made this for me. You can't buy it!" she said proudly.

Everyone was shocked and immediately gathered around Mother Howard, admiring her dress. They showered her with compliments. Suddenly, the young girl from before pointed to the hem of Mother Howard's dress, where there was a hand-stitched letter "L." She said, "Is this dress really designed and made by Madison? It looks so similar to a personalized clothing brand that I know. Their clothes also have a hand-stitched letter 'L' on the hem. And it's so hard to order from them. I saw a friend order a nice piece, so I decided to get one, too. But the orders are already booked until next year."

Madison was taken aback. It felt like the moment she met her family for the first time, and someone had discovered a side of her that she didn't want to show to others. She hadn't expected Rachel to expand their 【SeCret】 business this far. And she had never imagined that someone in their family would know about their brand, let alone be so familiar with it. Should she be happy that their brand had become so famous?
