“Alger, how can you talk to Master Cyril like that?” Madam Bella quickly scolded him.

Hearing that, Alger looked at Madam Bella and said with a smile, “I’m sorry. I forgot that Cyril Wells is our guest today.”

“Hm, it’s good that you know. You still need to apologize to Master Cyril with a gift for what happened at the banquet previously!” Madam Bella was totally on Cyril Wells’ side.

Cyril Wells glanced at Alger complacently, as if he was showing off that he had won the favor from Madam Bella, while Alger couldn’t.

Alger didn’t care about this. Instead, he looked at Madam Bella and said, “Mom, when Winnie chose her jewelry today, I saw several that suit you quite well, so I bought them as well. They’ll probably be delivered here in a minute.”

Madam Bella’s eyes brightened. She said happily, “Really? Alger, you aren’t lying to me, are you?”

“Why would I lie to you? I think of Mom and Dad all the time!” Alger said with a smile. While the few of them were talking just then, Alger had already contacted Lisana privately and chose some presents suitable for Madam Bella and Mr. Dunne.

They must be a hundred times better than the diamonds Cyril Wells brought here no matter what.

Madam Bella gave a beaming smile. However, Winnie glanced at Alger in shock and whispered in his ear, “Alger, when did you buy those things? Why didn’t I know about it?”

“You weren’t paying attention at that time.” Alger made a random excuse.

“Madam Bella, what Alger said can’t be trusted at all!” When Cyril Wells saw that Madam Bella was feeling slightly better about Alger, he frowned and said, “You should know in your mind clearly what Alger is capable of. He should have already used up his savings on Winnie’s gifts. How could he possibly still be able to buy you presents?”

Madam Bella reacted to what Cyril Wells said. She thought that what Cyril Wells said made a lot of sense, so she immediately looked sullen. Just when she was about to reproach Alger, the sound of a car came from outside the door.

Then, the doorbell rang.

“Coming,” Alger said calmly.

Cyril Wells’ heart skipped a beat. He looked at Alger in disbelief. Was this kid really capable of buying Madam Bella and Mr. Dunne each a present?

He immediately got up and walked towards the door. As for Madam Bella, she couldn’t wait any longer, so she ran to the door with small steps as soon as Alger spoke.

“Is Mr. Alger here?”

It was the store manager they met during the day. “I’m the manager of the jewelry store of the Youssie Corporation. I brought the jewelry Mr. Alger ordered here.”

“The store manager of the Youssie Corporation?”

After hearing that, Madam Bella was delighted. She quickly nodded and said, “I’m Alger’s mother-in-law. You can just give the stuff to me!”

“Well…”

The manager was a bit hesitant. He looked at Madam Bella and said, “Since these jewelry are quite expensive, I better hand them to Mr. Alger.”

Madam Bella turned around and yelled at the living room after hearing that, “Alger, come out quickly. The manager from the jewelry shop has already arrived!”

While Madam Bella yelled at the living room, her eyes had never left the jewelry box in the manager’s hands. She couldn’t wait to see what gift Alger bought for her.

Alger walked out as he looked at the manager. He then nodded and said, “Just give her the stuff.”

After seeing Alger, the manager was also relieved. He then put the jewelry in his hands into Madam Bella’s hands as he looked at Alger respectfully and said, “Since I’ve already delivered the jewelry, I’ll get going.”

There was a beaming smile on Madam Bella’s face. “Alright, see you!”

She then turned around and opened the box. When she saw the diamond necklace inside, she smiled even wider.

“This isn’t fake, is it?” Cyril Wells looked so pale, as if he had eaten a fly.

“Master Cyril, what are you talking about? These were delivered by the store manager of the Youssie Corporation in person. How could they possibly be fake?” Madam Bella subconsciously looked at Cyril Wells and scolded him.

However, when she noticed Cyril Wells’ expression, she immediately said with an apologetical smile, “Sorry, Master Cyril, I didn’t mean to reproach you. Look, the certificate is in here…”

Cyril Wells looked sullen and didn’t speak, so Madam Bella also ignored him. After that, she turned around to look at Mr. Dunne and said excitedly, “Come and have a look quickly. Do I look good with the necklace?”

After that, the two of them went to the living room happily to look at their presents, completely ignoring Cyril Wells.

Cyril Wells’s face had already turned green. Looking at Alger next to him, he dared not to imagine that things would come to this point at all.

He came here today to humiliate Alger, but why did he feel like he was the one humiliated instead?

Especially after seeing Madam Bella directly throwing the diamond bracelet he brought here to the side, Cyril Wells even felt like he was slapped.

Alger was delighted when he looked at Madam Bella and the others in the living room.

He turned around and looked at Cyril Wells as he said in a mocking tone, “I really don’t understand why you’re shameless enough to take out that diamond bracelet.”

Cyril Wells stared at Alger while gritting his teeth, but he couldn’t say anything to refute him.

“Things have already come to this point. Why are you still not leaving?” Alger said coldly.

“Hm!”

Cyril Wells grunted, then turned around and was about to leave.

“Wait!”

Alger suddenly stopped Cyril Wells. Cyril Wells gritted his teeth and said with a pale face, “What else do you want to say?!”

“If you have some self-awareness, don’t pester Winnie ever again in the future. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee what’s going to happen,” Alger said.

“What’s going to happen?” Cyril Wells said with a deep voice, “What do you dare to do to me?!”

“Try me!” Coldness flashed in Alger’s eyes. He stared at Cyril Wells and said seriously.

Looking at Alger’s gaze, Cyril Wells subconsciously stepped back. After realizing what he did, he felt even more ashamed.

He surprisingly felt guilty just now?!

After realizing this, Cyril Wells left without looking back. He didn’t even say goodbye to Madam Bella and the others.

However, Madam Bella was immersed in the joy of wearing the jewelry right now, so she didn’t even notice that Cyril Wells had left.

Alger walked to the living room slowly. Seeing Madam Bella, Winnie and Mr. Dunne looking at themselves in front of the mirror, he was in a great mood.

After a while, Madam Bella finally reacted to what was going on. She looked at Alger and said in shock, “Where’s Master Cyril?”

“He left a long time ago,” Alger shrugged and said.

“Fine, just let him go. I don’t care about him.” Madam Bella said indifferently, “Alger, you finally did something that satisfies me. Nice jewelry!”

It was indeed not easy to get a compliment from Madam Bella’s mouth, but he must say that it felt pretty good.

But the next second, Madam Bella continued, “However, don’t think that I’ve accepted you because of this. You must have spent all your money on these jewelry, right? Besides, where did you get the money?”

“I earned it.” Alger said speechlessly, “I’m working at the Youssie Corporation now.”

“The Youssie Corporation?” Madam Bella said in shock, “How is a kid like you qualified to work at the Youssie Corporation?”

“Mom! Alger has a friend at the Youssie Corporation.” Winnie frowned and looked at Madam Bella. She thought that what Madam Bella said just now was a bit unkind..
