Chapter 738 Gift
Chapter 738 Gift
When everyone was having fun, a man entered the hall slowly.
The man carried such a strong presence and the crowd couldn't help but took notice of him. He had a
loyal follower behind him, Hua. And the man was none other than Kaleb Hua.
He had long known about Annabelle Xia's return.
And he came to the party by Alistair Mu's invitation.
After he came inside, he went to talk to Mu Zhen and after that his eyes were fixed on Annabelle Xia.
The man knew that Annabelle Xia was in France. They even met before Annabelle Xia left and he was
the one that erased all the traces of Annabelle Xia leaving. But he didn't know what happened after
Annabelle Xia reached France!
The man tried to look for news about her but failed.
At that time, Kaleb Hua walked towards her.
"Long time no see!"
"Yeah, long time no see!"
When the two of them met, they simply greeted each other like friends.
When Hua saw that from behind, he was heavy hearted. That woman was his real daughter but Kaleb
Hua just couldn't tell anyone the truth. He couldn't reconcile with his only family.
However, Hua respected Kaleb Hua's choice.
"Thank you for one year ago!" Annabelle Xia looked at Kaleb Hua and said smilingly.
Kaleb Hua smiled as well, "As long as a certain someone doesn't blame me!" He was insinuating.
At that time, Alistair Mu came over and grabbed Annabelle Xia by the waist, "Actually I have guessed it
long ago. Otherwise, I wouldn't go and find you!"
"But I didn't say anything!" Kaleb Hua said. The man almost wanted to tell Alistair Mu but he wanted to
honor Annabelle Xia's choice. After all, it is only natural for him to take his own daughter's side.
"That's right. But I don't blame you, because…" Alistair Mu tilted his head and looked at the woman
beside him. His eyes were gleaming in love, "The most important person in my life is already here!"
Annabelle Xia smiled as well.
When Kaleb Hua saw that they were so much in love, he rested his heart. The man had been worried
about Annabelle Xia as well. After all, she was in a foreign land and taking care of a baby all by herself.
Now with Alistair Mu by her side, he could finally be restful.
"That's good to hear!"
"I won't blame you but that doesn't mean I wouldn't do anything in return. I will make sure to get even
with you in some other ways!" Alistair Mu said smilingly.
Kaleb Hua simply smiled back, "That will depend on how capable you are!"
Whenever the two of them met, it was like two king of the jungle clashed.
"By the way, where is the baby?" Kaleb Hua looked at them and asked.
Annabelle Xia recalled something all of a sudden, "Let me go get him!"
After saying that, she turned around and went to Dorie to get her son back.
The moment Kaleb Hua saw Shi Guang, his eyes were gleaming in joy.
That was his grandson!
His own blood!
The man almost screamed in joy. He stretched out his hands tremblingly and caressed his face
lovingly.
Shi Guang's eyes were so pure and adorable he could melt Kaleb Hua's heart.
The boy had completely inherited the good traits from both Annabelle Xia and Alistair Mu: Thin lips, tall
nose bridge and fair complexion. He was a real beauty.
At that time, one of the legendary man from the dark side of the society was looking at a child with such
fervent eyes. Those that didn't know what happened would just feel frightful.
And Alistair Mu could understand the way he looked at Shi Guang.
He couldn't describe his feeling.
"This child is simply adorable!"Kaleb Hua couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Do you want to carry him?" Annabelle Xia asked.
Kaleb Hua was shocked but the man was clearly elated, "Can, can I?"
"Of course!" Annabelle Xia smiled and passed the boy to Kaleb Hua, "I still remember we agreed to let
him call you grandpa! It is just right for you to carry him!"
When Kaleb Hua heard Annabelle Xia, he was pleasantly surprised to hear that she still remembers
that.
The man nodded happily.
Kaleb Hua had almost done everything in his past when he was a mob. However… It was his first time
carrying a baby.
When he carried Shi Guang, he didn't dare to use any strength at all. But he didn't dare to relax too
much as well, afraid that he might be uncomfortable or fall down. He looked completely stressed out
carrying Shi Guang.
However, the boy didn't feel any uneasiness at all and he was very cheery. Shi Guang kept poking
Kaleb Hua's face with his tiny fingers.
Kaleb Hua was just overcome with joy.
He wanted to say: grandpa is here! Call grandpa!
But he knew that he couldn't.
The man tried his best to hold himself back.
After carrying a baby for a short few minutes, there were droplets of sweat on Kaleb Hua's forehead. It
simply reflected how stressful and careful he was being.
After Annabelle Xia carried the baby back, Kaleb Hua was relieved.
"By the way, I have a gift for him!" Kaleb Hua stretched out his hand and Hua delivered something.
The moment Alistair Mu saw that, he was stunned.
It was a necklace.
Annabelle Xia looked at it and said, "Mr. Kaleb, you don't have to do that, this is too valuable!"
"You said that he would be calling me grandpa… This is nothing!" Kaleb Hua said with a cheerful smile.
Annabelle Xia didn't know what to reply and she simply smiled back appreciatively.
As Alistair Mu watched from the side, his deep gaze had a flickering light.
……
It was a lively and enjoyable night.
A lot of people came to give their blessings. And they all to bear witness.
Shi Guang was truly a well-loved child that was born with a golden spoon.
He was the center of attention of the party and many people were looking at him enviously.
After the party, Annabelle Xia was completely exhausted. Shi Guang was tired as well. When they were
showering him, he was simply lying down comfortably in the small bath tub and didn't play at all.
Annabelle Xia looked at him and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Shi Guang, you are so fortunate. They
are so many people that loves you…"
When Alistair Mu heard Annabelle Xia said that, he came into the bathroom and watched as Annabelle
Xia wiped Shi Guang's body and dressed him up. The man couldn't help but chuckled, "That's of
course. Don't you know who his parents are?" Alistair Mu grinned and carried the baby up. The father
and was getting more and more skilled in taking care of the baby.
"You are such a narcissist!"
"That is not narcissism but confidence!" Alistair Mu said happily as he kissed Shi Guang's chubby
check.
When Annabelle Xia looked at the father and son, she smiled contentedly.
Shi Guang was so tired and he was falling asleep, he couldn't even open his eyes already.
Annabelle Xia carried the baby from Alistair Mu's arms and cradled him for a while. In just minutes, Shi
Guang fell asleep soundly.
At that time, Annabelle Xia looked at the necklace on Shi Guang's neck and she took it up to have a
look.
"What's the matter?" Alistair Mu asked.
"This necklace look ordinary. According to Kaleb Hua's personality, he wouldn't give something so
simple!" Annabelle Xia said in puzzlement. She wasn't looking down on the gift but Kaleb Hua had
been outrageously generous previously. He wouldn't be giving something so ordinary to Shi Guang.
Moreover, it was during such a grand celebration like tonight.
Alistair Mu simply smiled as he took the necklace over from her hand. The man's eyes lit up, "This is
not something valuable. Yet at the same time, it worth so much more than all the other gifts!"
"Mr. Mu, is my understanding impaired or are you just being confusing?" Annabelle Xia raised an
eyebrow.
Alistair Mu chuckled and looked at the necklace, "He didn't give any red packet money but this thing is
almost priceless!"
"Continue!"
"With this, he could mobilize the mobsters!"
Annabelle Xia gasped, "What are you saying…"
Alistair Mu continued, "Although Kaleb Hua had already retired from the dark side, no one with his
stature could completely remove himself from that world. If I am not mistaken, as long as Shi Guang
carries this, he would be protected by the shadows no matter where he goes in this country!"
Annabelle Xia's jaw almost dropped. Kaleb Hua had given such gift beyond price!
She contemplated and said, "Isn't this too valuable?" Annabelle Xia was just overwhelmed.
Alistair Mu nodded agreeably.
Annabelle Xia was troubled, she didn't like to take advantage of others and the gift was simply too
costly.
"Don't tell me you are thinking of returning it!" Alistair Mu was able to tell Annabelle Xia's thought in one
glance.
"I don't think we will be able to repay this!"
"Then, don't!" Alistair Mu said nonchalantly. Why should they repay a grandfather's love to his own
grandson? However, Alistair Mu didn't tell Annabelle Xia anything.
The husband thought about telling Annabelle Xia but he knew that Kaleb Hua had his own concerns.
Before the man said anything, Alistair Mu knew he shouldn't interfere.
Moreover, Annabelle Xia just came back and everything just went back to normal. They should leave
these complicated things to the future!
When Annabelle Xia heard Alistair Mu, her eyes narrowed, "President Mu, I thought you didn't like to
owe others?"
Annabelle Xia understood Alistair Mu very much.
Alistair Mu simply raised an eyebrow, "I thought you wanted Shi Guang the call him grandpa? Serves
him right! Moreover, if we accept this, he will be happier. No one will give something they are reluctant
to give. Do you think it is polite to return the things others gave with sincerity!?" Alistair Mu asked back.
The man was making some sense… Annabelle Xia nodded, "All right then!"
It was just too much of a temptation for any parents to have such an insurance for Shi Guang's safety.
Every parent would want their child to grow up safely and healthily!
Therefore, Annabelle Xia remembered that kind gesture of Kaleb Hua.
Not only that, she hid the peculiar and special feelings she felt deep inside her heart…
……
The Hua house.
Kaleb Hua looked at Shi Guang's pictures and his face was filled with sunshine.
The more he looked at him, the more adorable the baby got.
Hua came in with a bowl of medicine. When he saw that Kaleb Hua was staying up and sitting in front
of his desk, he couldn't help but reminded the man, "Brother Kaleb, you have been staring at the
picture for a long time already. It's quite late now, you should rest after taking your medicine!"
When Kaleb Hua heard that, he lowered the picture heavy heartedly but a smile blossomed on his face,
"This child is just too adorable!"
