Chapter 248
James returned home.
However, the family was not at home, and he did not bring his keys when he left. He was not in theCallahans’ family group chat, so he did not know they were headed to the Callahans’ villa.
He phoned Thea. Thea had gone to Longevity Pharmaceuticals and asked Yuna for some orders. Shewas on her way home after checking the messages in the group chat. “A mysterious Mr. Caden?“Luxurious betrothal gifts?”
Thea was taken aback after seeing the gifts Tommy had posted in the family group chat.
It made her think of someone for some reason.
The ghost-masked man. Suddenly, her phone rang. She recollected herself and answered the phone,“What’s wrong darling?” “Thea, where are you? There’s no one at home, and I didn’t bring my keys, soI’m stuck outside right now.” “I’ll be home in half an hour.”
“Okay.”
James hung up the phone.
Then, he waited at the door.

Half an hour passed by quickly, and a beautiful, fairy-like woman dressed in a casual dress appeared atthe house door.
James, who was squatting by the door, immediately stood up and smiled. “Honey.” Thea took out herkeys and opened the door. After entering the house, she quietly took out a small box and handed it toJames. She blushed and whispered, “Hide it properly. It’s for tonight.”
James trembled with excitement when he saw the thing Thea handed him.
Thea said, “By the way, I heard someone sent valuable betrothal gifts to the Callahans’ villa today. Myparents already went to check it out. Let’s go have a look too.”
“Okay.” James smiled.
The betrothal gifts were from him to Thea.
It was time to bring them home. There were already dozens of people gathered in the house when thetwo arrived at the
Callahans’ villa
Almost all the core members and some close relatives of the Callahans had arrived.
There were many boxes in the living room. Some were full of cash, jewelry, and expensive clothing.
“Nonsense! These are obviously gifts sent to my family by Mr. Watson!”
James and Thea heard Gladys’ shouts as soon as they entered the house. She stood in the living roomwith her hands on her hips as she shouted at Tommy, “Who said these were for Megan? Megan’sboyfriend is Colson from the Oswalds. Although they had some money, they weren’t capable of suchvaluable gifts. Haven’t you guys heard of the Watsons? They are a very low-profile family. ZavierWatson had visited us at noon and given us gifts worth millions of dollars.”
“Look at this. It’s what my brother-in-law, Zavier gave me,” David took out his car keys and saidboastfully
Tommy instantly lost his confidence after seeing them. Megan stood up and defensively said, “Theperson who delivered the betrothal gift said that it was Mr. Caden, not Mr. Watson, who sent it! DoesThea know a rich Mr. Caden?” “Yeah! Could it be that this Mr. Caden is your live-in son-in-law James?”Tommy opened his mouth and shouted. “Haha! Don’t make me laugh.” “How could it be James?
“He has no money and no power. I heard he even had to ask Thea for cigarette money.” Many peoplelaughed after hearing James being mentioned. Thea and James happened to hear them when enteringthe house. Thea’s expression did not look very pleased.
“These are gifts for Thea,” James pulled Thea over and announced. Seeing James and Thea walk intogether, Gladys immediately pulled Thea to her side and scolded her.
“You trash, James. What are you doing here? I already told you that you’re not worthy of Thea. You willget a divorce tomorrow!”novelbin
“Mom…” Thea helplessly said. “I’m the Mr. Caden that sent the betrothal gifts. They’re for Thea,”James stepped forward and said.
“D-Don’t spout nonsense,” Thea pulled James and whispered.
