The Pinnacle Of Life

Inside Bardot Manor, there were around forty to fifty people in total of Aidan’s relatives

and his disciples. A few large tables had been placed in the hall.

It was time to present gifts.

Dorothy had thoughtfully prepared a gift for Alex to present to Aidan, it was an inkstone

that cost tens of thousands dollars.

The old man liked calligraphy, hence, she figured

that he would like it.

“Give this inkstone to him later, and say it’s a present from both of us.” Dorothy

reminded him in a soft voice.

“There’s no need for that, I’ve prepared gifts as well,” Alex smiled as he said.

In front of them, the first one to present the gift to Aidan was the elder daughter, Claire.

“Dad, I’ve got you this jade scepter. I wish you good luck and health for years to come.”

Next was Adrianna and Taylor, they gave him a gold statue of Buddha.

Then, Aidan’s disciples followed suit and presented their gifts to Aidan.

Alex was speechless with the fact that Aidan would open his presents as soon as he

received them, regardless of the gifts being wrapped in boxes. Alex had seen his

expression turned gloomy as some of his disciples had presented gifts that weren’t as

grand as the others.
