Dolores blushed.

If Dolores wanted to, she could grab Matthew’s position as she held fifty per cent of the shares in her hands.

Victoria had also prepared some gifts for the two children. The gifts were different from Matthew’s. The gifts were not money but gifts full of love.

She went to the South China Temple to prey for a talisman in person, hoping that the two children would grow up without any illnesses or disasters.

Victoria hung the gifts around their necks. The blessing bag was made of yellow silk and embroidered with lines, which might belong to the Buddhist.

This was not superstition. It was a trust for the heart.

Hanging by a red string, the two children were happy.

“Today is New Year's Eve, I can’t be empty-handed either.” Boyce also prepared Nephrite pendants for the two children, “I don’t know much about jade but I heard that this jade is good to wear. When I bought the jade, the boss told me that men wear Avalokitesvara and women wear Buddha, I don’t understand what does that mean.”

He gave the Avalokitesvara to Samuel and the Maitreya Buddha to Simona. The little girl opened the red velvet box and inside it was the Maitreya Buddha which was beautifully carved. The Maitreya Buddha held Mala in its hand and grinned in a very pleasing manner.

The little girl liked it very much and touched it with her fingers, “Thank you, Mr. Shawn. I like it very much.”

Boyce was relieved, “I am worried that you will not like it.”

It was New Year, so it was inappropriate to give a gift that was too cheap but he could not afford to give something expensive. He was worried that the children would not like the jade pendants. He was apprehensive for a long time.

He was worried that the child would not like them as gift giving was about giving the right gift to the right person. He could not just give stuffed toys or something, after all, it was New Year’s Eve.

Samuel was also very polite, “Thank you, Mr. Shawn. I like it very much too.” Growing up abroad, he did not understand Buddhist etiquette in his home country. He replied to Boyce, “

Men wear Avalokitesvara and women wear Buddha. Is it because girls have to wear male ones and men have to wear female ones?”

Buddha is male and Avalokitesvara is female, that was how he understood it.

There was an instant silence at the dining table.
