To Be Yours Again By Taylor

Chapter 108

Chapter 108 All They Have Is Money

Jenny begged to differ. In her opinion, it was uncharacteristic of Alec to give up love for an arranged marriage. He must have had feelings for Yvonne, but whether or not he loved her was a secret only he knew. Anyway, Jenny didn’t bother to reveal her thoughts to Morgan since they were just assumptions.

They stopped talking when the event started. Old Mr. Faust appeared in the hall and was receiving well wishes from the guests, but Jenny and Morgan were not in a hurry to meet him. Morgan marveled, “The Fausts are truly the elite family of Parrington. No one could beat them when it comes to the scale of their

events..”

“Why? Are you envious?” Jenny chuckled and said, “Tell your parents to keep it up. Maybe you could enjoy all these riches someday.”

“That’s impossible.” Morgan was sensible. “Jenny, when are we giving out the presents?” She noticed that everyone was giving Old Mr. Faust his birthday presents, both to wish him personally and to get acquainted. The Goldings also planned to do so.

When the crowd around Old Mr. Faust dispersed, Jenny suggested, “Let’s go now.”

“Okay.” Morgan nodded with a smile and walked beside her. She always followed Jenny around because Jenny gave her a sense of comfort and security.

The two ladies attracted attention when they showed up, especially Jenny. Everyone was curious about her after knowing she was Max’s plus one.

“Grandpa, I wish you a very happy birthday. May health and happiness be with you,” Yvonne spoke. Standing beside Alec, she handed Zachary Faust a birthday gift. The old man accepted it cheerfully

and beamed at her warmly. “I’m just happy to have you here. You don’t even need to bring a gift-we’re family!”

“How could I not bring you a gift? You are grandpa to me,” Yvonne purred and added, “And one should bring gifts to one’s grandpa!”

Zachary laughed heartily and opened the gift box to reveal a lovely amethyst figurine. Someone around him gasped, “It is an amethyst figurine! That’s very generous of Miss Dickman.”

“Right. It looks expensive,” someone chimed in. A smile appeared on Yvonne’s lips as she cast a gleeful glance at Jenny. However, Jenny was unbothered. Most people couldn’t tell from looking. Only she knew that Zachary Faust had no interest in amethyst.

Still, the old man kept his thoughts to himself and stowed the gift away with a smile. “Yvonne, that’s very thoughtful of you. I love it.”

“Good to hear!” Yvonne said. Morgan looked around and saw no one coming forward to present their gifts. She glanced at Jenny and received a slight nod. Taking the hint, she walked up to Zachary.

“Sir, I am Morgan, the daughter of Jamie Golding. I wish you good health and long life.” She gave her well wishes and handed him a gift.

After his long retirement from the business world, Zachary had almost no recollection of the Goldings. Moreover, the Goldings weren’t that influential in Parrington. He gestured at Warren to accept the gift and thanked Morgan personally, “That’s very nice of your family.”

His attitude toward Morgan was the opposite of how he treated Yvonne, but Morgan wasn’t offended, for she understood that the Goldings did not have the stature to command respect at such a grand event. Someone started murmuring, “The Goldings? Aren’t they the new money from the restaurant industry?”

“Yes. All they have is money. There’s no grace or sophistication.” Another snickered with a mocking tone,

annoying presence.”

After Alec left, Jenny shifted her gaze to Max. “I’m here for his grandpa’s birthday, and I genuinely wish the old gentleman well. I don’t want trouble. Got it?” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Zachary Faust was good to her, and the last thing she wanted was to taint his birthday event. Meanwhile, Max was a ticking time bomb that would go off at any time.

Morgan’s face fell when she heard that, and she stood there silently, biting her lips.
