Chapter 608

When Cordelia had finished speaking, Baldwin was asked to gift each of them a money pouch.Stella received the pouch with a"Thanks".

Jaylene, on the other hand, declined and said, "I'm afraid I'm not worthy of the money pouch Madam Kane is giving.I lack talent."

Stella paused then smiled immediately.

She said, "Ms.Saun, this is not a competition.We wrote the calligraphy to congratulate Grandma.Will it matter who is more talented as long as Grandma feels blessed?"

Baldwin added, ''Ms.Saun, please do keep it.Take it as a blessing from Madam Kane."

Jaylene hesitated a little before finally taking it.

Stella did not reply to that, and she kept her thoughts to herself.
