Chapter 1508 Apology Gifts
Iris Long didn't know that someone tried instigating her husband to cheat on her behind her back.
Jin Liwei had asked Grandpa Lu in advance not to reveal it because he wanted to be the one to say it to his own wife. Grandpa Lu grumbled for a bit before agreeing.
Iris only learned about the incident later that afternoon when the French magnate sent his own butler to their residence and presented her with several beautifully packaged boxes and a sealed envelope addressed to her.
"What's going on?" she asked her husband. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Jin Liwei didn't reply right away. He looked at the gifts with a cold expression, but in the end, he told his wife, "Open the letter first and see what it says."
Iris observed his expression but couldn't guess what happened. So she opened the sealed envelope.
It read:
"Dearest Madame Jin,
"I would like to express my deepest apologies for offending your husband, your younger twin son, and in doing so, offending you as well."
Iris read this part and frowned. "What happened?"
"Just continue reading it, love."
So she continued reading.
"I must admit that my ignorance and utter disregard of your husband's loyalty to you and your marriage landed me in this quagmire."
Iris raised an eyebrow and glanced at her husband. She was now beginning to have an idea why both her husband and Grandpa Lu had arrived home earlier with ugly expressions. So something really did happen while they went out together.
She continued reading the letter.
"I do hope that Madame Jin would find it in your heart to forgive me for my transgressions and still allow me to attend your perfumery's launch party tomorrow. I swear upon my name that I would never do anything to offend you, Mr. Jin, and your family ever again.
The husband and wife laughed and enjoyed watching their eldest twin son's adorable performance.
"He's definitely imitating my 'Passionate Flames' stage performance with your brother," Iris commented with a laugh. "Look. These are my moves and these ones are Brother Chonglin's. Little Mochi is just a baby, but he can already remember some dance steps. Isn't our son amazing, darling?"
"Of course." Jin Liwei kissed her cheek. "The mom is an amazing genius, so of course the son is also amazing."
Iris' cheeks turned pink. She giggled and leaned on his chest. The couple watched their son's performance video a few more times, not getting tired of it at all.
Iris sent Little Mochi's performance video to their family's group chat.
As expected, enthusiastic praises once again flooded the chat with Grandpa Lu claiming credit for taking the video, although he wasn't the one who recorded it. Well, technically, he was the one who asked the nerdy billionaire to send him the video, so yes, he still had the right to take credit for it.
Later, Iris asked Dom and some of the French household staff to organize the French magnate's apology gifts.
"Boss, there's something in this box," Dom said.
Iris took it. It was a thin box, almost like a wooden folder. She opened it. Inside was a property deed for a castle in the Western part of France. It was now titled to her, Long Xiulan.
Iris Long gasped. "What in the world?! Liwei, take a look at this!"
Jin Liwei studied it.
"We can't take this," she said.
He shrugged. "It's part of his apology. Just take it."
She hesitated and examined the property deed again.
"It's a good location," he commented.
She sighed. "I really profited today."
He kissed her forehead. "It's what you deserve. That man made a terrible mistake. He should pay for it."
