?Chapter 422:


    Elsa’s words hinted smugly that Norahcked manners, showing up without a gift at the birthday celebration. Norah halted, her demeanor cool and collected.


    “Who said I came without a gift?”


    She had even brought a present to Corrin’s birthday party. And for Elsa’s event, she had also remembered to select a gift.


    “Gilda, please bring my gift here.”


    A few steps behind, Gilda approached with a jewelry box in hand.


    “I was in a rush. I hope you can like it.”


    Gilda opened the box to reveal a jade bracelet nestled on red velvet. It was of exceptional quality, with a deep, vibrant green hue.


    Elsa and her family instantly saw its worth, pegging it near one million dors.


    Even a gift chosen hastily could be valued over a million? The crowd was quietly amazed by Norah’s generosity. If Hank or Elsa were in her shoes, they wouldn’t dream of spending a million on a birthday gift. It wasn’t that they couldn’t afford it; they simply preferred not to ssh out that much.


    In the Wilson household, they believed that money should be spent wisely.


    Hank watched the jade bracelet intently, his eyes betraying a touch of longing. It was clear that Norah was filthy rich. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have effortlessly dropped a million on a jade bracelet.

    Elsa’s face lit up, her smile turning sincere.


    “Norah, that was very kind of you. This gift is precious.”


    Wearing her seven-centimeter pink high heels, Elsa quickly moved over to Gilda and excitedly inspected the jade bracelet inside the jewelry box. She had always admired the quality and color of the jade at a jewelry store but never felt quite right about buying it herself.


    After all, she already owned five simr bracelets. Yet, it wasmon for women to feel they were just a piece or two short in their collection, and adding another wouldn’t be a problem.


    “Come, take a seat.”


    A birthday gift of a jade bracelet made the Wilsons let their guard down, thinking Norah had just returned to celebrate Elsa’s birthday.


    As they all sat down, Elsa rose with a drink in hand.


    “Today marks another birthday for me. I’m so d to have each of you here with me every year. I hope you’ll all continue to join me in the future. This year, we have a new addition, my cousin Norah. Norah, even though you’ve juste back, I’m sure you’ll soon feel at home with us. We’re a tight-knit group. Thanks for your thoughtful gift today. It means a lot to me.”


    Her heartfelt thanks to Norah showed how much the gift had moved her.


    Norah, ss in hand, toasted Elsa.


    “We’re all family here; no need for formalities. Being part of the Wilson family, I look forward to everyone’s support. Thank you.”


    She quickly finished the ss of alcohol in one gulp. Setting the empty ss down, she said, “I’m not one for fancy words, but I wish you a very happy birthday.”


    Iker and Hank watched as Norah finished her drink. Despite her cheeks turning a shade of pink, she managed to wish Elsa well with a clear mind. Both were visibly surprised.


    Hank had retrieved a bottle of potent liquor from his collection for the asion. It was the type that even his father would savor slowly and cautiously.
