Female Novel
Chapter 247
After the people left, Tommy immediately went to the box containing the money, took out the stack, and
counted them. He scrutinized them and shouted, “Grandpa, the money is real.”
Lex was still trying to figure out who was this Mr. Caden, and why he was so generous.
Tommy put down the money and walked toward Lex. Then, he said, “Grandpa. The only woman not
married in the Callahans is Megan and Yzabella from uncle’s side. However, Yzabella already has a
boyfriend, and he isn’t named Caden either.”
“Yeah, yhis Mr. Caden didn’t even state whose hand in marriage was he asking for and sent so many
betrothal gifts?” Lex nodded and said.
“It must be for me. I’m so much prettier than Yzabella. This mysterious Mr. Caden is surely not
interested in her. He is definitely asking for my hand in marriage,” Megan exclaimed and reacted in
excitement.
“Hmm.”
Lex pondered for a while.
Among the unmarried women of Callahans, Megan was the most outstanding one, and he also agreed
that the gifts must have been for Megan.
Still, who was this Mr. Caden?
“Megan, do you any rich man by the name of Mr. Caden? The only family that had the surname Caden
was the one ten years ago. There aren’t any other families with the surname that could afford such
lavish gifts,” Lex glanced at Megan and asked.novelbin
“Ah? N-no.” Megan fell into thought.
She had no recollection of any rich man called Mr. Caden.
The Callahans began to guess who the betrothal gift was for and the identity of the mysterious sender,
Mr. Caden.
Meanwhile, James, who was headed home, received a call from Scarlett.
“James, I’ve sent the betrothal gifts to the Callahans. Lex had personally received them.”
James frowned and said, “Did you send them to the Callahans’ villa?”
“Y-yeah. Is something the matter?”
James scolded, “Why did you send it to the Callahans’ villa? I asked you to send it to Thea’s house!”
“Huh? Don’t be angry, James. I’ll send someone to take them back and redeliver them again
immediately,” Scarlett said hurriedly in panic.
“Forget it. I’ll bring Thea to the Callahans’ villa to claim them later,” James thought to himself and said.
James hung up the phone.
Since it was sent to the Callahans’ villa, so be it.
Bringing Thea to receive the gifts would also make her proud.
Moreover, the Commercial Crime Investigation Department had already intervened in Thea’s matters
and would be arresting Howard and the others very soon. Bringing Thea over would clear Thea’s
name.
James was burning with excitement as he thought of Thea’s charming face and the sight she was
going to show him at night.
Thea’s house.
“Dad, Mom! Someone sent a betrothal gift to the Callahans’ villa.”
David, who was scrolling through his phone, suddenly shouted.
He was chatting in the family group.
Tommy shared pictures of valuable betrothal gifts.
“Mom, Dad, check the family group chat. Tommy said the gift included Eighty-eight million eight
hundred thousand dollars in cash, a limited edition Firarre worth twenty-eight million dollars, and a
twenty-two thousand square meter villa in Goodview Villa District worth three hundred and eighty
million dollars. There were also countless jewelry and clothes…”
“What?”
Gladys immediately picked up her phone and opened the group chat.
Benjamin and Alyssa also opened the group chat.
In the group, Tommy sent a proud voice message, “Look, everyone. These are the betrothal gifts sent
for my sister, Megan. How many assets does this pursuer have to be able to send such expensive
gifts? He must have at least hundreds of billions to send such generous gifts. Doesn’t it make you guys
envious?”
Gladys frowned and murmured after seeing the gifts and Tommy’s proud voice.
“When did Megan meet such a rich man? The betrothal gift is really expensive and almost worth half of
the Callahans’ assets.
“Mom, this can't be right.”
Tommy sensed that something was not right and immediately said, “How could Megan possibly know
any rich men? The betrothal gift must be for Thea by Mr. Watson. Didn’t Mr. Watson say their family
tradition is to send gifts at least worth one billion dollars? He just mentioned it in the afternoon and
already sent them over so soon.”
Gladys slammed her tights and said, “That’s right! Why didn’t I think of it? This must be a betrothal gift
by Mr. Watson to Thea. How could it be for Megan? That’s nonsense! Let’s go! We must go to the villa
and claim what belongs to us.”
“Let’s go, Mom!”
David stood up.
Gladys glanced at Benjamin, still sitting idly, and she called out, “What’re you doing, Benjamin? Hurry
up!”
“Oh.”
Benjamin finally reacted.
The family set off and walked in the direction of the Callahans’ villa.
