Chapter 406

After the lawyers checked the document, they kept one copy and gave them the other copy.

Boniel then received a blue enamel jewelry box from the butler after the formalities were settled.

“Winona.” Boniel called out to Rayna. Then, he handed the jewelry box to her. “I haven’t given you anything even after you’ve been staying here for so long, so I’m gifting this jewelry set to you.”

Rayna thought the jewelry box looked a little familiar. I think I’ve seen this in an auction catalog previously. This seems to be an expensive item.

If the box itself was already pricey, the jewelry pieces inside would be worth even more.

Still, it wouldn’t be appropriate for her to refuse his gift since he gave it to her in front of so many people. Therefore, she had no choice but to accept it.

“Thank you, Old Mr. Terblanc.”

Boniel flashed a faint smile. “We’re family, so you don’t have to be so formal with me.”

Jefferson, who was sitting beside her, glanced at the jewelry box. His gaze darkened, but he didn’t say a word.

Soon, the two lawyers picked up their briefcases and left.

As if he was certain he would be the ultimate winner of the bet-on agreement, Arnaud wore a cunning grin the whole time. During the meal, the man even told Jefferson to let him know if he needed any help.

Rayna couldn’t stand looking at his pretentious demeanor. Dissatisfaction churned within her, preventing her from enjoying the food.

After they were finally done with dinner, Rayna and Jefferson went upstairs together. Rayna immediately asked him after the door was shut, “Which companies did your dad assign to you? Since he cares so much about you, I don’t suppose he entrusted you with companies at Fandar?”

“No, that’s not the case.”
