Chapter 161 A Bottle Worth 100 Million Brook wiped the cream off his face and covered his sore stomach. Hailey's voice was really "amazing". Hailey pointed the bow from Jared directly at Brook, who immediately hid behind Randal. Kyle looked at the angry Hailey and said, "Hailey, you're smart and you learn everything fast. All the tutors praised you and wished that you could be their apprentice when you were little. Why can't you sing and dance at all?" Hailey said casually, "When God closed a door, he opened a window. I'm not a professional singer and dancer anyway." "You don't have any talent at all," Kyle added. Hailey pointed her bow at him and he shut up and ate cake at once. Randal comforted Hailey gently, "It's okay. I know a lot of professional sound guys. I'll introduce you to them if you want to be a singer

someday." Hailey shot two arrows. "Randal, how can you bully me with them!" Randal gave a helpless smile. Jared added as he enjoyed Hailey's cooking with his head down, "I don't think Hailey's voice is as bad as you guys say." Brook retorted, "Come on, Jared, I saw you put cotton in your ears when Hailey was singing." Jared looked up quickly. "It's just a pair of earplugs." Hailey was speechless. Her brothers had loved forcing her to perform since she was a child. She was silly at the time and thought it would be great to entertain them. After all, the serious First Father and Karl would smile when she sang. Little Hailey was proud of herself and wanted to be a singer, but her mom and dad stopped her. Her dad stroked her head and advised her, "Don't push people too hard." She felt she was already versatile and that she had to give way to people who could only sing and dance, so she gave up. It wasn't until she grew up that she realized she was naturally tone-deaf and uncoordinated and that if she did become a singer, she might not be able to make ends meet. She rarely sang. She just wanted to entertain her brothers today. "I made strawberry pudding. I'll go get it." Hailey stood up, walked through the hall, and headed to the kitchen. Jeremy was cleaning up in the kitchen. Seeing Hailey, he gave a big smile behind the glass window. Hailey smiled back. However, she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure coming through the back door. She stopped in her tracks and the smile froze on her face. Owen awkwardly fixed his ill-fitting chef's uniform with a porcelain bottle in his hand. He also froze when he saw Hailey. He stared at her as if he wanted to carve her face into his heart. He had just seen her back faintly at the bottom of the steps at the entrance to the restaurant. He knew she was wearing a red dress and had her hair in a bun, but he didn't know she was wearing a costume. The long costume covered in sequins made her look very elegant. There was a purple phoenix hairpin in her bun. The perfect makeup made her look as gentle and noble as a princess. There was a pale gold smiley face necklace around her pretty neck, but this shape... Owen gulped. "Your neck..." Hailey was about to speak when Owen put a porcelain bottle and a red velvet box in her hands. She looked up blankly and Owen said to her, "Happy birthday." Then he turned and walked out. Hailey was stunned.

Jose had just calmed Gail down at the entrance. Watching Owen walk out, he was stunned too. 'It was very difficult for Mr. Moore to get in. Why did he come out so soon?' He stared in disbelief with his arms around Gail's waist.

At the kitchen door, Hailey stood blankly with a porcelain bottle in her left hand and a box in her right. 'What the hell?' Jeremy came out of the kitchen in surprise and looked at the things in Hailey's hands. "What's wrong? Who was that?" He had just seen a white figure. He had thought it was Gail, but the man just put the things in Hailey's hands and left. Hailey frowned at the things in her hands. Her brothers heard the noise while talking in the dining room. They all came over. "What's wrong?" Brook saw the things in her hands, "Who sent them?" He stepped forward and took the bottle from her. He was just about to examine it when Hailey replied flatly, "Owen," "What?" Her brothers all looked up and frowned coldly, Jeremy stared at Hailey's face in confusion. 'Who's Owen?'

Owen left in a hurry, leaving only two things behind. It was as if he had just come to see her and to say happy birthday. Hailey opened the small red box. Inside was an opal brooch. She knew right away that it was from her ex-mother-in-law, Polly, because Polly had collected it for a long time and had only worn it twice on important occasions. Her brothers all recognized it and knew how precious it was. When they heard it was from Hailey's ex-mother-in-law, they didn't say

anything

As for the porcelain bottle... Jared asked, "Is this a vase? Or a clay pot? For a ring-toss kind of situation?" Randal said, "I've seen it on set. There are quite a few props like that in the palace." Kyle said, "How can he give a girl a vase for her birthday? What a stupid man." Brook picked the bottle up straight away. "It's not expensive anyway. I'll drop it." Kyle said, "Don't drop it here. Throw it out!" Hailey said casually, "It's only worth about 100 million." Brook withdrew his hand. "How about we sell it?" Kyle replied, "Good idea." Jared and Randal glared at the two money-grubbers. 'Shame on you guys!'
