“As elders, we treat everyone equally. When your sisters-in-law married into the family, Nana gave them gifts, so she’ll definitely do the same for Rosalie. Your nana has plenty of jewelry. She knows what she’s doing.“What’s given to her grandchildren’s wives is for them, and what’s set aside for Lil’ Pie is for her. Don’t worry, we won’t touch Lil’ Pie’s share.”It would be over twenty years before Lil’ Pie grew up and got married.Besides, Lil’ Pie was the only girl in the York family. When she eventually married, her marriage gifts would not be a concern at all. All her granduncles and grandaunts would prepare generous gifts for her, not to mention what her parents and grandparents would provide.“Oh, we should call your nana first so she doesn’t worry.”Rosella and the others had gotten straight into the cars after landing and had not called home to report their safe arrival.She immediately called her mother-in-law.Grandma May answered her phone quickly.“Mom, we’ve arri

River said, “You make it sound like you don’t dote on Lil’ Pie too. All of us in the family adore her. While we spoil her, we also discipline her when needed. We won’t let Lil’ Pie grow up spoiled.”He hoped his little niece would grow up to be as free-spirited as her aunt, Elisa.Tania smiled and replied, “That’s true. Zachary and Serenity know what they’re doing. As long as we don’t interfere when they discipline the children, it’ll be fine.”So far, her grandchildren had all been very sensible.Her granddaughter was showered with love from everyone, but she was still young and just a little pampered for now.The group headed to the airport parking lot.The six elders got into River and Rosalie's cars, while the Lafayette family's bodyguards took care of loading the luggage.On the way, Rosella received a call from Daisy.“Hi, Daisy,” Rosella greeted warmly.The elders from both families already treated each other as relatives.“Rosella, have you arrived in Solville? Did Ro

“Rosalie, so sorry to have troubled you to come and pick us up.”Rosalie said with a smile, “No trouble, it’s something I should do. River didn’t tell me earlier that you’d be arriving this afternoon, or I’d have made arrangements earlier.”“We only came over in such a rush because River told us at the last minute, too. You’re fine. River’s around, anyway. I feel bad for taking up your time.“You’re so busy, and River still called you to come with. I already scolded him over the phone earlier.”Rosalie laughed. “I can leave anytime. I just had to give my brother a heads-up. Of course, I had to come pick you up from the airport.“Did you guys bring a lot of stuff?”Rosella replied, “No, no, not much. It’s just that it’s a bit of a distance to come here. If it were nearer, I’d have been able to bring more.“I brought some gifts for you and your family.”Rosalie protested, “You’re being too polite. Just bringing yourselves is enough. There’s no need to buy gifts. You mustn’t go to

“You take care, too. Don’t overexert yourself.”“Don’t worry, honey, I’m very careful about my health. I’m going to take a nap now, even twenty minutes helps.”“Alright. Go get some rest, then. I’ll go take a walk to calm myself down.”Kelly had really pissed Adina off.The couple ended their call.Meanwhile, River, the catalyst for Adina and her cousin falling out, was on his way to the airport with Rosalie to pick up his parents.After three o’clock, River tried to call his mother from time to time.When he finally got through, Rosella said to him, “River, we just landed. Are you already at the airport? Just wait for us at the entrance.”“Okay, Mom. Rosalie and I will be waiting at the entrance. Do you have a lot of luggage with you?”“Each of us brought two pieces. You came with Rosalie? Why did you disturb her and take up her precious time when she’s so busy? We could have just gotten a taxi to yours.”Rosella felt bad for her future daughter-in-law, thinking that her son

River had said that repaying one’s debt of gratitude excessively would do more harm than good. Levi felt Adina still cared about her relatives and could not bear to cut ties with them. Therefore, River suggested that they pretend that Crest Co. was in trouble and needed money. That way, they could take back the money Adina’s relatives had borrowed from them all those years. They could also determine who was willing to return the money.It was a good opportunity for Adina to see her relatives’ true colors and give up on those freeloaders.Levi consoled his wife and told her about River’s idea.After a short moment of silence, Adina said, “Let’s do it after some time. They won’t believe us if we tell them now.“Is River and Rosalie’s marriage confirmed?” Adina asked. “Not yet, but it’ll be soon. His parents will be arriving in Solville this evening. He won’t be going back to the office because he has to pick up his parents, aunts, and uncles from the airport. The Yorks and Lafa

“I don’t owe you anything.”Kelly’s father was the one who lent Adina the money, not Kelly. Over the past few years, Adina had also helped out her relatives a lot and given them quite a bit of money.Sadly, her actions of repaying her gratitude only made them greedier.“I was just venting my anger a little, Adina. I’m not actually blaming you for not helping me.”Kelly immediately toned down her arrogance once she heard Adina would not help her in the future.“I went overboard earlier, Adina. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have spoken to you like that. Although we aren’t biological sisters, we still share the same grandparents. We’re still closely related.“Blood is thicker than water. You can’t leave me to fend for myself.”Kelly sat beside Adina and hugged her arm. Adina withdrew her arm from Kelly’s grasp. She said coldly, “You’re not young anymore, Kelly. You’re not working and have been mooching off your parents for a long time. Your parents are old. The meager money they earn
