Chapter 499 - Famous Brands

On the other side, Jaquan called the law firm a few times and knew the phone numbers of several prosecutors. The lawyer suggested that he return to City Y to sit down and talk about it properly. Jaquan agreed.

Then he rushed to the library, searching for the information on criminal cases for two hours. He also worked out the solution to Eliot's and Roger's troubles with a computer and mailed it to them.

Jaquan returned to his room at dusk. He simply packed up his belongings into his bag. Then, he sent a message to Emma, saying that he planned to return to City Y tonight, and asked Emma to wait for him.

Immediately, Emma called back, "I'll go with you."

"What?" Jaquan was surprised. Holding his phone, he smiled and said, "Why? Don't want to part with me?"

"I bought some clothes for your parents." Emma whispered, "I bought you too."

"Really?" Jaquan tried to suppress his excitement. However, he failed. He asked in a low voice, "How do you know my size?"

Emma: "..."

His teasing tone was annoying, so Emma could not think rationally. Then she whispered, "Everyone can hear you."

Suddenly, Jaquan stopped saying.

Emma chuckled, "Come to pick us up."

Only then did Jaquan know that he had been tricked by her. He licked his teeth and thought that he would punish her tonight.

Felice and Allen saw their neighbors' grandchildren playing around every day, and they missed Stony very much. Also, they felt guilty.

That night, they went out for a walk after dinner. They ran into many neighbors, chatting with them for a while and parting with them. When they met a chatterbox, they listened to her patiently.

"My daughter-in-law bought this expensive jacket for me. It costs more than one thousand. I couldn't bear to buy it at that time, but my daughter-in-law bought it directly. She knew that I liked it..." Rose was fifty-five years old, and she liked wearing red. With lipstick, she looked like a red eggplant in the distance. She was talking about how filial and nice her daughter-in-law was.

Felice looked at her coat and complimented her unintentionally, "Nice. A thousand? It looks more expensive."

Allen was doing exercise quietly and did not say a word.

"Well, where's your son? Is he married? He can't be too picky. Or he won't have a good ..."

"No, my son is married," Felice said with a smile.

"Married?" Rose was very surprised, "Congratulations, whose daughter? What about her educational background? What do her parents do? Does she have a house in town?"

Felice kept smiling politely, "We don't have these requirements. My son has a house and a car. I just hope they live happily. We don't care about anything else."

"Stopping thinking like that. Some girls are liars. You have to be careful for the sake of your money and house," Rose tried to persuade Felice.

Allen couldn't help but cough.

"Is there anything wrong with Allen? He has to take care of himself now." Rose turned to glance at him again.

Allen: "..."

Felice did not want to make any replies, but seeing Rose going too far, she cleared her throat and said, "The family of my daughter-in-law is richer than ours."

Rose asked in confusion, "Really? When can we see her?"

"They have gone out and won't be back in a short time." Felice was a little unhappy. What did Rose mean? Was she qualified to see her daughter-in-law?

"My daughter-in-law also wanted to go on a trip, but she said she wanted to go with us," Rose said proudly, "We do have different lifestyles, so I plan to refuse her. For us in middle ages, we'd better dance in the squares."

Felice gave up talking to her and just smiled politely.

"Don't be angry. They will bring some gifts for you, like my daughter-in-law. Every time she went out, she would buy me various gifts. I feel so worried..."

Felice: "..."

Felice took a deep breath and smiled, "Why should I be angry? Even though they bought me nothing, I was happy, too."

Rose looked at her pitifully, "You must be sad, right?"

Felice: "..."

Allen interrupted and lied, "What did our daughter-in-law buy you last time?"

He seldom told a lie. This time, he did it to help Felice gain respect. After saying this, his face turned red immediately. Obviously, he was lying.

Rose was a bit curious and asked, "What did she buy?"

Felice didn't want to lie, but she didn't want to embarrass Allen, either. Just when she didn't know what to do, she heard Stony's voice, "Grandma! Grandpa!"

Excitedly, Felice immediately waved her hand and shouted, "Stony, Grandma is here!"

Felice and Allen were near the park, so Jaquan saw them from a short distance. He stopped the car and then Stony got off.

Emma said, "Watch out."

"Alright!" Stony ran over.

Jaquan turned the car around, intending to give these things to his parents and leave, so he just parked it outside and grabbed all gifts.

Jaquan and Emma walked towards them together. Emma was dressed in a cheongsam. Wearing her hair in a bun, Emma looked graceful and dignified. Although with no expression, she seemed to be a daughter from an extraordinary family.

She held a lighter gift in her hand and walked on his right hand. Jaquan reached out to hold her and grabbed several luxury bags including Hermes and LV.

"Why don't you tell us in advance?" Felice held Stony and forgot Rose. She looked at Emma and Jaquan, asking with a smile, "Have you eaten?"

"Yes," Jaquan replied. He handed the bags to them. "Emma bought you some clothes. Try them on."

Felice looked at Emma in surprise, "For us?"

Emma nodded and gave a faint smile, "I'm not sure about your sizes. Have a try. "

"Alright, it's definitely suitable." Felice smiled and gave the bags to Allen. Then, she squatted down, held Stony in her arms, and kissed him on the cheek, "God, I haven't seen you for days. Miss you so much."

Stony giggled and kissed Felice.

Rose couldn't help but move towards them, asking Felice with a smile, "Are they your son and your daughter-in-law?"

Felice thought that she had already left, so she was unhappy to see her again. Emma was good at details so she could tell easily that Felice didn't like Rose.

Then Rose exclaimed, "Heavens, these are all famous brands. Are they fake? Did you buy them in South Water Street? It looks real. Look at the packaging. It looks expensive. I think it costs five hundred at least."

At that time, her son and daughter-in-law just came back from shopping. Rose hurriedly called them over and pointed at the bags, saying, "Look at these fake brands."

When her daughter-in-law saw Jaquan first, she was instantly stunned by his appearance. This was the third time she had seen Jaquan, but every time she met him, she would blush involuntarily.

Then she muttered, "These might be real, not fake." She also wanted to say that he was not the guy that would buy fake brands, but she didn’t say that out loud.

Seeing her reaction, Emma gently lifted Jaquan's chin and examined his face carefully.

Her attitude was extremely arrogant.

Rose's daughter-in-law was attracted by Emma's action, then she noticed that she was standing beside Jaquan. However, she had an ordinary appearance but a different aura. In front of Emma, she felt inferior.

Moreover, she was wearing a cheongsam. Cheongsam was thought to be dignified and graceful, but Emma looked dangerous.

Rose's son didn't want to disgrace his mother, so he said ambiguously, "Many people have been deceived to buy fake brands. It's quite normal. Too many people have wasted their money on them."

Rose immediately felt excited and said, "See, am I right?"
