Chapter 415 - The Best Christmas... Ever!

Once all the household help and the bodyguards had left, only the family was left to exchange gifts. It was an awkward moment for everyone since it's their first time exchanging gifts with grandma Hanada. There was an eerie silence for a moment.

Ashley nudged Tanaga and in turn, he looked around, unsure of what to do. Fely saw this and prompted her two sons Arnold and Arnel, to begin. They quickly followed their mother's command.

Arnold and Arnel quickly kneeled by the Christmas tree and started checking out names on the gift card to hand down the gift to the named person on the card awkwardly.

The first was handed to grandma Hanada by Arnold. "Grandma, this is for you." He gave her a box that came from Fely and Jessie. "It's from mother and father." He proudly informed everyone.

Arnel found more gifts for grandma Hanada that were from Tanaga and Ashley. He gladly hands them over. Then it was time for the gift from him and Arnold. 

"Grandma, this one is from me and my brother Arnold. Hope you like it." He shyly told the older woman, unable to look her in the eye. Even though he treats the older woman as his own grandmother, he's still intimidated by the older woman's aura.

Grandma Hanada, with a sweet smile on her face, "thank you, my grandsons... I'm sure I would love it whatever it is that you and your brother got for me." She then accepted the two gift boxes that Arnel was holding.

Grandma Hanada was overwhelmed and unsure what to say; tears were fighting to fall from her eyes. She slowly wiped it before thanking everyone.

After handing over all of the gifts that belong to the older woman, Arnel continued sorting the gifts and handing them over to their respective receiver. 

Since Arman, Arthur, and Ariel were not supposed to celebrate with them, there were no gifts prepared for them from their parents and two brothers. 

To their surprise, when Tanaga suddenly disappeared and when he came back followed by Tiny and a couple of bodyguards, everyone was surprised that they were carrying boxes after boxes. He ordered Tiny to begin handing them over to his three older brothers-in-law.

"These gifts are from all of us. We are happy that you can be with us on this joyous occasion. Merry Christmas!" Tanaga proudly said while his arms were wrapped around his wife's shoulder, hugging her from the back.

"Thank you!" Said the three in unison.

Soon the floor below the Christmas tree was clean of gifts, and everyone received theirs. 

Ashley, who held one of the twins while Tanaga was holding the other one, has many boxes of gifts besides them on the floor where they were seated. 

"Why don't we take a picture of the twins and their gifts. This way, they would see it when they grow up." Announced Ashley to no one in particular. She then got up and started clearing up the couch filled with gifts for the babies.

"That's not a bad idea. Let's put them down on the couch and surround them with gifts." Replied Tanaga while he's already got up and trying to set it up.

Arman, who was still a hangover from the night before, suddenly woke up with wide eyes when he saw his two nephews so adorable. He quickly pulled out his cellphone and started taking video to show it off to his colleagues in the Philippines when he returned.

Arthur and Ariel did the same thing, and they were so thrilled that they were behaving like children in a chocolate factory. Then there's Ashley and Tanaga, the proud parents who couldn't take enough pictures of their twins. 

Grandma Hanada, Fely, and Jessie have tearful eyes as they watch their family enjoying the festivities.

Suddenly, grandma Hanada's phone lit up, and when she looked to see who's calling, her eyes brightened. It was Tanaka calling; she hurriedly answered the call.

"Tanaka, how are you, my grandson?" Tears flowing down her face as she greeted him.

"I'm fine, grandma. How about you? It seems that everyone's having fun." He said while yawning and stretching his aching arms. 

Grandma Hanada could hear it in the background. A hint of pain shot through her heart as she misses her other grandson how she wishes that he could return for the celebrations. A tear settled on her old but still elegant face.

The older woman was about to say something when the sound of the doorbell was heard.

*Ding-dong!*

Everyone stopped and froze for a moment to look towards the door. A second later, Tiny showed up and rushed towards the door to see who it was? Everyone was waiting to find out and standing still.

Tanaga looked at Ashley, while Ashley only shook her head and raised her hand to say that she had no idea who it was. While everyone waited to see who was at the door, the twins decided that they had enough and began crying. That got Ashley and Tanaga's attention and quickly picked up one of the twins.

"Ohhh, are you tired already and have had enough? It's alright, and we are finished. We have enough pictures to last us a lifetime." Said Ashley while dancing around with the baby in her arms.

Tanaga, on the other hand, doesn't know what to do with his son. The baby just kept on crying as if someone was pinching him. 

"Whaaaaa! Whaaaa!" The baby's loud cry.

Hearing the baby cry, Fely quickly went towards Tanaga and opened her arms, asking him to hand her the baby.

"Let me check; he could be wet or something," Fely told Tanaga while waiting for him to hand her the baby.

Tanaga didn't have a choice but to hand the baby to his mother-in-law. He's getting frustrated just listening to the baby whine.

Just as the baby was handed over to his grandmother, grandmother Hanada exclaimed.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #'s-contracted-wife-%5Benglish%5D_13713194705932805/the-best-christmas...-ever!_51254400886293425 for visiting.

"Tanaka!!!! How could it be? I was just on the phone with you, and you sounded like you were in Japan. What is going on? Hahaha!" Shouted grandma Hanada while waiting for Tanaka to come over to where she's sitting.

"Merry Christmas, everyone! Hahaha! Grandmother, I never said I'm in Japan. I was yawning because I didn't get much sleep on the plane, and it was a very long flight." Inform Tanaka while walking towards his grandmother to give her a tight embrace.

Everyone welcomed Tanaka and greeted him back. While Arman, Arthur, and Ariel were stunned and staring back and forth at Tanaga and Tanaka, unable to utter a word. After a moment of shock, Arman finally spoke.

"So' that's where it came from. I was wondering about the twins, and now I got my answer." He was mumbling to himself more than speaking to anyone.

"Yeah! I plan to ask mother and father if twins run in our family, but I don't need to now since the evidence is now right in front of us." Replied Arthur while he continued staring at Tanaka.

Tanaga introduces the three Gusman brothers that have not yet met Tanaka. After the introduction, it was back to opening gifts. However, there's a dilemma.

Since no one had an idea that Tanaka was coming, there was no gift for him...
