smartass, but he doesn’t understand that he can’t do things in excess. Yes, he could please Bella, but
he didn’t know he had offended Dad. In the Iverson Group, Dad still has the final say.”
Charles sneered. “Hmph, let him continue simping! He will eventually end up with nothing!”
Indeed, Lance’s expression darkened at this moment. His jaw was tense as he glanced toward
Christopher.
When he saw Sophie, his eyes widened, and his mouth twitched!
The emcee pushed Christopher’s gift onto the stage with a cart, carrying with it everyone’s attention.
Celeste looked at Wyatt hesitantly. “Should we uncover it? It’s a little token from Christopher.”
Wyatt had his arm around Celeste’s thin waist as they unveiled the red cloth covering the gift.
Instantly, Wyatt’s expression changed. He raised his eyes and discreetly glanced in Christopher’s

She thought, ‘This is a 17th-century porcelain vase made by the Royal
Pottery. This antique could easily be treasured in the national
museum, and it would start at a minimum of $30 million at an
auction!’
Christopher presented such an extravagant gift to Celeste on her

“This is a priceless antique!”
“Christopher never showed himself in public at the Iverson family’s
events before, but he made his first appearance tonight with such a
grand gesture. How impressive!”
“But his gift was $1 million more expensive than Chairman Iverson. Is this appropriate?”
It was not!
Lance Iverson’s face had turned green.
However, they did not know that this seemingly inappropriate gesture was actually intentional.
This was just the beginning. The Iverson family members had more
uncomfortable days to come.
At this moment, the emcee shouted, “The next gift is from Mr. Justin
