Chapter 35 Great Gifts (3)



In Charles' room,

Charles was sitting at his desk, his eyes fixed on the envelope lying in front of him. He had been waiting for this moment for what felt like hours, ever since he had got the envelope and instructed him to open it alone. He was excited and nervous at the same time, wondering what secrets the envelope contained.

Just as he was about to reach out and break the seal, Carla entered the room without warning. Her sudden appearance startled Charles, and he instinctively drew back, his hand still hovering over the envelope.

"Carla, why are you here now? Didn't Rain say to open the envelope alone?" Charles asked.

In response, Carla didn't say anything. She silently gave him the letter. Charles started observing the letter. Soon he found that there was something written in Rain's handwriting on the letter. He thought this may be the letter Rain left for Carla.

Charles was curious about what was written there, he started reading it.

'Sorry, Mom. I don't have anything to gift you. WASTED.'

Charles stared at Carla with sympathy. He was just going to comfort her but Carla shook her head and gestured him to read below that sentence.

There was awkwardness on her face.

Charles was confused by Carla's behavior. Still, he started finding something in the letter.

Soon, he saw that something was written at the end of the letter. There was written that.

'Just kidding. Your gift is in father's envelope. Because I know you just can't stay far from father, right? So just go.'

After reading this, Charles started staring at his wife's face with a mischievous smile, and seeing that, Carla started blushing.

"Hey… Hey… Don't stare at me like that!" Carla said hurriedly, she continued,

"Who wants to stay with you? That's a lie okay? don't believe it, okay? Humph." She puffed her cheeks.

Carla looked so cute that Charles wanted to hug her tightly but he controlled himself because checking the envelope was more important now.

Charles with a smile opened the envelope, but seeing the contents of the envelope, his smile disappeared in a second.

There was a letter and a pen drive in the envelope. In the pendrive, there was only a single video. He immediately connected the pendrive to the virtual projector and started the video.

Soon video started,

"Oh, recording started, huh." Rain said this line like he was an amateur in photography.

"So there must be Dad and Mom also, huh. Fufu." Rain made a mischievous smile, he just looked like he was having fun after pranking Carla.

"So you must have read the contents of the documents, that's right. I'm breaking off with Holmes Family. Now I'm free and also no longer a candidate for the head position."

Rain declared naturally like it wasn't that hard for him.

"Oh, and I also terminated my engagement with Emma.

But please don't make your relationship bad with Emma's parents because of this. You also know it's not her fault.

You knew from the beginning, right? But never told me."

Hearing this, Charles and Carla were shocked because they didn't expect this.

"That's why you told me to stay away from her. My stupid past self didn't know your intentions.

However, now I know that she hates men and also me." Rain shrugged his shoulders.

Yeah, Charles and Carla, many times told Rain to stay away from Emma, but Rain just ignored that advice.

"So, Emma is now free and now you can also support Kaya wholeheartedly.

After all, I know you are still guilty about uncle's death and couldn't take away revenge." Rain made a wry smile.

Seeing this, Charles' face wrinkled and Carla just started crying, small tears streaming down her cheeks, leaving wet tracks behind them.

"I know that you are worried about me, but don't worry. I'm fine here. Now it's time for the return gifts." Rain changed his expression and said with enthusiasm.

"Dad, please check the envelope one more time. There will be a low-tier space ring there."

As Rain told, Charles checked the envelope again and there was really a space ring. Charles started checking the contents of the ring. He was shocked after seeing them.

"In the ring, There will be a recipe for Body strengthening elixir. Don't worry, this is an advanced version of the current product in the market. It will increase your strength permanently to some extent. You can use this to sell it in the market and make your monopoly."

Rain smiled proudly.

"Dad, do you like my gift? And mom, you are the most beautiful women I have seen. But there is still a gap." When Rain said this Carla was confused. Although she liked when people praised her, but Rain never told her anything like this.

"So in the space ring, there is also a Body foundation elixir, although it's somewhat mid-tier.

But It will make you more beautiful and your foundation will become firm. So In some time, you will have strength on par with dad."

When Rain said this, Charles and Carla were astonished. They didn't think that their son would give this much valuable gifts.

To general people, Body foundation elixir was a myth. Even for a high-class family like the Holmes family obtaining one was too hard and the recipe of that elixir was unknown.

"Yeah, SS-RANKER. I know it's your dream to be an SS-RANKER and stand alongside Dad. So in some time, you can beat dad black and blue. Dad, be careful to not upset mom." Rain tried to warn Charles funnily.

The couple just smiled at their son. They were happy to see their son like this.

"Thanks for everything.

I know you are busy with my well-being and because of some accidents, you couldn't spend time with me.

But I am always grateful to you.

Love you, Mom & Dad."

Soon video stopped.

After seeing Rain's gentle smile, Carla started sobbing.

And Charles hugged her.

But there were also some tears in his eyes.
