Chapter 106 A Good Son-in-Law?

Monty's voice was gentle, respectful, and cautious. But to the others’ ears, it sounded like a thunderbolt on a clear day! Cara and Emmanuel stared in shock. Celine, Cannon, and cousin Ellie were dumbfounded. And Daniel's contemptuous expression froze on his face.

Normally he would flatter Monty to no end; he'd remember every little thing the man said or did. How could he not recognize Monty's voice? Was it really Monty outside? And was he really coming in to toast Cara?

"Come in," Lachlan said calmly.

Compared to everyone else's shock, Lachlan and Miranda seemed much more composed.

The door of the private room opened as Monty walked in with various expensive gifts in one hand and a glass of white wine in the other.

"Mr. Willis, Ms. Lowe, hope I'm not interrupting?" Monty asked while bowing respectfully.

"No," Miranda shook her head while Lachlan waved his hand with an air of superiority.

"Oh good... good..." Monty smiled as he looked around the room before walking towards Cara and Emmanuel.

He noticed Daniel inside but didn't have time for him at this moment.

"Mrs. Lowe, I heard today is your birthday. These gifts are just a small token from me." He handed over the presents then turned towards Emmanuel, "I wish you good health, Mr. Lowe, and all your wishes come true! Cheers!"

In fact, Monty was several years older than Cara, but since she was Lachlan's mother-in-law, he addressed her as Mrs. Lowe out of respect.

Cara and Emmanuel were confused by Monty's behavior at first but quickly raised their glasses for a toast with him.
