Chapter 151 Surprise
Mabel laughed softly. “I thought it was something rather serious. I won’t be surprised. These two girls are
both smart, and they understand me well. They will prepare the best for me. But if they show the gifts
now, we will definitely make it a match, and will determine a better one and a
worse one.”
And that would be unfair to both presenters.
Kelly hurriedly walked over and held Linda’s hand. “Linda.”
After she whispered to Linda, she looked up at Old Mrs. King in all smiles. “Grandma, Linda was just on
the spur. We don’t have to determine which was better. She just said so because she thought it would be
. Please don’t take offense.”
Kelly’s words sounded like an excuse for Linda. However, in fact, some people might think that Mabel
was being partial.
Perhaps it was because Nova’s gift was not presentable and Mabel didn’t want Nova to lose

Kelly’s pretentious look irritated Mabel. Mabel believed in Nova from the bottom of her heart. Then, she
looked at Nova and said, “Nova, grandma is also curious. You two grew up together,
and you both are attentive. Say, you two take out your presents together and let’s have a look?” Nova
had never given her a disappointing birthday gift. Mabel believed that she wouldn’t be disappointed this
time either.
Kelly was surprised to see that Mabel should ask Nova to take out the gift. Mabel had been so partial to
Nova. How much confidence does Old Mrs. King has in Nova?
Kelly mocked in her heart. She wanted to see how Nova and Mabel made a fool of themselves.
“Grandma…” Nova was also surprised. But she soon understood Mabel. Grandma wanted her to win to
rein in Kelly’s arrogance.
Grandma…
Nova hesitated. She planned all these all by herself to help grandma get rid of her scar.
Actually…
There was a reason why grandma didn’t want to celebrate birthday and why grandfather would
try to avoid any quarrel with grandma this day.
However, she was to spread salt to grandma’s wound. What if grandma couldn’t get over it?
At this moment, she was overwhelmed with rue and reluctance.
Henry also sensed her complicated feelings. He frowned, and he knew that Nova would not
panic for merely being compared with Kelly.
Then, why is she so nervous?
“Nova?”
Mabel didn’t receive Nova’s answer and she thought that Nova was unwilling to compete with
Kelly.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZona also felt Nova’s reluctance. She just sat two tables away from Nova. She was close enough to
Nova that she directly said to Nova, “Nova, since you cousins have good connection with each other,
why don’t you two just bring the gift out together and please Mrs. King together!”
Nova struggled in her heart. She subconsciously looked at Zona, who was nodding to her with
encouragement.
After hesitation, Nova finally smiled to Mabel. “I feared that my gift is not as good as Cousin Kelly’s, and
that grandma might be disappointed. But, since grandma want to see it, then I’ll bring it out. Whatever
the gift is, it’s all our best regards to you.”
Hearing Nova’s words, Zona finally breathed a sigh of relief. Nova’s hesitation had aroused
suspicion. If Kelly’s gift exasperated grandma, everyone would suspect that these it be Nova’s
scheme.
Nova’s words cleared herself of suspicion. She sounded like a woman with strong desire to win
and strong reluctance to lose.
Mabel laughed. “How would you disappoint me! Steward, bring their gifts out. Let me see what
surprise they have prepared for me.”
