Chapter 76 76: Roy’s Gift To Her

As Irish thought of this, the steward came forward and noted that child Roy had come back.

Child? Such an arrogant title.

Roy was the only male offspring of this family, so his appearance was rather special compared to the others. Lilith giggled and stood up, shouting towards the entrance of the dining room, "Roy, you've come back just in time! We're just about to have dinner, we thought you wouldn't make it."

His chipper laugh came from afar, "I dare not, especially today."

The voice was so pleasant to hear. Though it could not be compared with Joseph's deep and magnetic voice, it was much more outgoing. So Irish raised her head, and a man with an airline uniform met her eyes. He was tall with rugged and jagged shoulders.

He was...

"Isabel?" The man came forward and looked at her from top to toe. His attractive eyes were so splendid, "I'm your second elder brother, Roy." And then he patted her shoulder and smiled at Ruby and Lilith, "Hey, you guys, now that Isabel's come back, you two are not the only two beauties in our family."

Lilith pouted her mouth to show her disagreement and stared at Roy, while Ruby smiled gently, "Isabel was good-looking since she was very little. Now she's become more attractive and beautiful. Isn't that right? Dad?"

Henry nodded quickly while smiling. Irish was not accustomed to such a unified atmosphere, so she escaped Lilith's big hand and smiled lightly as a greeting. She didn't know much about Roy since he was not involved in the Group, and there was not much media coverage of him. However, he seemed to be rather different from the description made by the outside world, which showed that he was a playboy. The uniform showed that he might be an aircraft commander.

"Isabel, this is for you," Roy seemed not to feel her indifference and passed on a delicate case to her.

Irish didn't take it but raised her head to look at his eyes and eyebrows, "Something from the Runestone Group?"

Roy's eyebrows rose slightly, "It was not very expensive, but a very interesting object. I bought it as I landed in Milan the other day."

Stupefied, Irish took it over.

"It's not fair at all. Where is my gift?" Lilith winked at him.

"Every time I come back, I bring a gift for you. After dinner, I will give it to you," Lilith laughed happily. "Okay, now that you've come back, prepare to have dinner with us since we have been waiting for you," Henry said a bit grumpily.

Roy washed his hands and sat down immediately beside Joseph. In this way, the scene was really delightful. Joseph was calm in a business suit, while Roy was outgoing in his uniform. They were both tall and handsome. Irish thought that if they were all out drinking at a bar, girls wouldn't be able to control themselves around the two.

"You are always on the airline, while you don't care about anything to do with the Group. I've told you so many times that you should learn from Joseph how to do business. But you are no match for your two sisters." Henry couldn't help reproaching him, "You insist on being an aircraft commander, and now you don't even have time to come back for dinner!"

"Okay, I'll grant your request to return," Roy seemed to control the situation well every time Henry was not happy, and he raised his eyes to beg for help from his mother.

Shirley did indeed care about her son's feelings. However, this time she thought that Henry was right, so she stood at her husband's side, sighing lightly, "Your dad's words made sense. Roy, you are old enough to consider marriage. Escape from those who are unreliable. And met the daughter of uncle Philip during the last business banquet and found that she was so lovely. We..."

"Ah, Isabel, I heard that you now work for the Group. How is it suiting you?" Roy asked Irish, intending to disrupt his Mom's talk.

Shirley couldn't do anything as she knew that Roy didn't want to react to her words.

Irish still acted like an outsider. She had thought to give a brief answer, but when she raised her eyes, she saw Ruby putting food on Roy's plate. She wanted to play a joke in front of them, so she just said, "It's good, especially since Joseph helps me."

Joseph shot a glance at her without any trace.

Roy smiled, "That's good. Now that Lilith has joined the Group, you two can help each other now."

"We are in different departments. Please do a survey first, okay?" Lilith smiled sweetly at him.

Kelly spoke again and said in a low voice, "Could you just be more polite to your cousin?"

Lilith stuck her tongue out.

Roy smiled without any anger, "I have been used to her straightforwardness. Isabel--" He then looked at Irish, "You can often go home to see Mom and Dad. In fact, Dad misses you so much."

Even though Irish didn't have time to react, Shirley immediately said to Roy, "You should pay more attention to the meal." And then she looked at Irish in a very generous way and pointed at one dish, "Isabel. You can just regard this as your home. You know what, this dish was selected by your father to be made for you. He said that you love it."

Irish sneered in her mind and said in a cold voice, "I think you are wrong. I don't love that dish, but my Mom loved it."

After her words, there was a sudden silence.

Shirley got unhappy immediately, while Henry turned to be embarrassed.

Lilith didn't get the point, and she still raised her hands to take the food. Kelly patted her, and she had to shrug, seemingly feeling the strangeness of the atmosphere.

"Isabel," Joseph said to break the ice. He reached his hand to take the dish onto her plate, saying in a placid voice, "Have a taste. Maybe you will like it. Even if you don't like it, you can arrange for others to make what you desire, as this is your home."
