Chapter 472 A Birthday Gift
"Then... don't bring it up tomorrow," Maura paused and said. Tomorrowwas grandpa's birthday banquet. She didn't want to ruin it.
"Is that okay? You should know your grandpa wants to see Finn thistime; he wants to make sure Finn's right for you," Leah remarked, "Sohe has to go tomorrow."
All Leah said was right. Her grandpa planned to test Finn tomorrow.Maura understood it as well. But they're not a couple anymore.
"You can call him to accompany you tomorrow. I'll tell your second auntto keep your divorce a secret. No one will know that," Leah persuaded.That's what Leah hoped to achieve.
As long as they were together, Leah had a thousand ways to fix themup again.
"I'll think about it,” Maura frowned. Indeed, Leah's proposal was thebest choice. But their relationship was so embarrassing; seriously, he'sMaura's ex-husband
"Maura. Leave this to mom. I'll talk to Finn," Leah offered.
Maura sighed and said nothing. Clearly, Leah got her tacit consent.
In the afternoon, Finn met Leah again in the company.
As soon as Leah saw him, she happily greeted, "Get off work?"
"Yeah," Finn responded faintly. He was a little uncomfortable withLeah's weird passion.
"Here's the thing. Tomorrow, Maura's grandfather will hold a birthdaybanquet at the Golden Horse Hotel. Can you go with Maura?" Leahwent straight to the point.
"Grandpa?" Finn was confused. He knew less about Maura's grandpa.But he remembered two years ago when Grant took him to visit him,they got expelled.
"Well, it's my dad, Xander Lin," Lin Lan answered.
"But why me? Does he want to see us now?" Finn asked. Although henever saw Xander, he knew Xander was a kind person, and moreimportantly, he always took care of Maura.
"Well, he really wants to see you and learn if you're Maura's Mr. Right,”Leah explained honestly. Although Xander didn't mention Finn, they allcould see he wanted to see him. He has to know his favorite daughterwould lead a happy life after his death.
"But we..."
"My dad doesn’t know you divorced. Only Gloria knows about it,” Leahinterrupted him directly. She guessed what Finn would say.
"Okay, I will be there tomorrow," Finn agreed. He has to go, not for anyothers, but for his Maura.
If he were not present tomorrow, Maura would be humiliated. So hehad to appear, in fine style. He needed to assure grandpa of his abilityand love for Maura.
"Good. We will wait for you here at 6 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Let'sgo to Lin's house first, and then to the Golden Horse Hotel," Leahsmiled. As she expected, Finn still loved Maura. How great it was!"Okay," Finn nodded slightly. It's like Xander would have a grandcelebration. After all, the spot was the Golden Horse Hotel.
After Leah left, Finn drove to Antique Street again.
He needed to pick a gift for Xander.
It's Xander's 80th birthday. By then, most of the important figures ofLin's family would be there.
As juniors, they could not be there with nothing.
Finn had thought about the gift. It should not be too precious.Otherwise, they would steal the limelight from the others. And as a live-in son-in-law, he could not appear to be too rich.
But the gift should not be too cheap. That would make the grandpaand others look down on him and make Maura lose face.
Honestly, that's hard to choose a suitable one.
Although he had some thoughts, Finn still didn't figure out what's thebest gift.
Finn didn’t know much about Xander. His only information was Xanderstrived to be rich from rags.
He had no idea what he might like.
Having visited several stores, Finn didn't make the purchase. Then henoticed a three-floor building ten meters in front of him.
