Chapter 36 Great Gifts (3)



[Charles' room, Holmes Family Mansion, Karoon City]

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,

"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.
