Chapter 1077 - 1077 It’s A Gift



1077 It’s A Gift

While these people were goofing around in the waiting room, someone knocked on the door. And only then did he enter.

“I hope I’m not disturbing you all,” said Shui Koshing.

“Bà, you aren’t disturbing anyone,” replied Raelle. “Come inside.”

Shui Koshing walked up to Raelle and looked at her lovingly. Raelle found some sadness in his smile and the clear indication of that was his reddened eyes. It seemed he had teared up earlier. But why? Raelle definitely couldn’t solve this puzzle.

“Daughter-in-law, someone is here to see you,” said Shui Koshing. He looked behind him and said, “You can come inside.”

All of them saw a middle-aged man entering the room. He wore gold-rimmed glasses and looked sharp. The glasses managed to soften up the aggressiveness in his eyes. But it didn’t hide it completely. So, it was obvious to see that he was a capable individual.

None of them recognized the man. While Raelle was wondering who he was, Shui Xian called out, “Uncle Shun?” Raelle looked at her husband who recognized the newcomer and noticing her gaze, Shui Xian replied, “He is an old friend of mom and also her lawyer.”

Lawyer Lu Shun smiled at Shui Xian, “It’s nice to see you again, Xian. It’s been a long time.”

“A very long time indeed,” muttered Shui Xian since the last time he saw him was at his mother’s funeral when he read out her will. After that, he never saw him. He did hear that he had moved abroad so he was quite surprised to see him here today. He did not think that his Bà invited this man here. That only meant he came on his own. But why?

.....

“I’d like to speak to Ms. Raelle Xiang alone,” stated Lu Shun. “If you don’t mind,” this was directed at Raelle who thought for a moment and nodded her head in agreement.

Since she agreed, the rest left the room to give them space.

Even when only Lu Shun and Raelle were left in the room, Lu Shun didn’t speak. He was silently observing her. Raelle didn’t know what he wanted to see but she didn’t care either. She was the person who had no such thing as fear or bashfulness. Why would she care what he was trying to find in her?

She was as confident as ever and just stood there giving off a superior aura.

Lu Shun nodded in acknowledgment, “Yin was right. You are really an impeccable person. And very beautiful.”

“Thank you for the compliment,” said Raelle as she thought about why her late mother-in-law would talk about her with her lawyer.

“Do you know that Qian Yin liked you a lot?” asked Lu Shun. He didn’t wait for her response as he went on, “In fact, it was her dream to have you as her daughter-in-law. Or should I say, she was obsessed with the idea of taking you to her home? Since she knew you wouldn’t want to become her daughter, she set her eyes on making you her daughter-in-law.” He sighed as reminisced alone, “She was a stubborn person.”

“I wonder what brought you here, Mr. Lu,” asked Raelle. “It couldn’t be just to reminisce about my late mother-in-law, right?”

“Not really,” he said. Then he placed his bag on the table and opened it slowly. He took out a delicate box from inside and offered it to her, “This is a gift from your late mother-in-law to you.”

Raelle was momentarily lost. She didn’t react for a long moment and Lu Shun didn’t rush her either. He could actually understand her confusion very well. Even he thought Qian Yin was crazy when she brought this to her and placed her conditions before him.

Raelle took the delicate box and opened it. Inside the box lay a beautiful tiara. The design of the tiara was intricate. It wasn’t as exaggerated as the sapphire necklace that Shui Xian got for her. The diamonds on the tiara weren’t unseen. At least not to Raelle who grew up in an affluent family. But the big blue diamond in the very center of the tiara still caught her attention.

She held the tiara in her hands, not knowing what to do or how to react at all.

This was really unexpected to her.

“This is really for me?” she asked uncertainly.

“It is,” answered Lu Shun.

“She left it for me?”

“She designed it for you,” said Lu Shun. “If I’m not wrong, she did promise you that she’d make a jewelry set for you. This tiara was her engagement gift to you.”

“Engagement gift?” repeated Raelle.

“Yes,” answered Lu Shun. “Although she wanted to make you her daughter-in-law, she knew the chances of that were bleak. Yet, she wanted to give you this on your engagement. She left it with me. Asking me that whenever I hear the news of your engagement, I should bring it to you on her behalf if she is no longer around.” He took a moment as he noticed Raelle’s lost expression and smiled bitterly, “I know this is unexpected. But I don’t think you should doubt how much she loved you.”

“She and I didn’t know each other that well,” said Raelle.

“I know,” replied Lu Shun. “But as I said, she loved you. She wanted to take you home as her daughter. She said, ‘Raelle is a beautiful person. She has a beautiful heart. I think these diamonds won’t be enough to match her dazzling self but this is all I’ve got. I just want her to know she is more precious than these gems. This is just a small gift from me to her.'”

Raelle suddenly recalled the image of that woman in her memory. The thing that stuck with Raelle regarding Qian Yin had been how much she loved her son. And just now, Raelle realized that the same woman seemed to love her a lot. Even when they didn’t know each other all that well.𝐛𝗲𝐝𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝐦
