Chapter 303 - 303: Jadeite Piece
Because they didn’t think Christopher would come to greet John truly, even though he had explained everything and given a present.
Nonetheless, John and the others were wary, even suspecting that there was something amiss with the present Christopher had brought.
“Mr. John, are you underestimating me?”
Christopher’s visage darkened after hearing John’s statements.
He would not have gone to congratulate John if it hadn’t been for specific reasons.
But he had no idea the Phillips family would be so cautious of him.
“Christopher, we are all extremely familiar with your personality. So don’t waste your time here. I’m not going to accept your gift. Get up and go with your people!”
As he replied, John’s face became solemn.
Christopher glanced at John for two seconds before taking the present and opening it in front of everyone’s eyes.
When the present package was opened, a jadeite piece emerged before everyone’s eyes!
When John saw this jadeite piece, he was astounded. He had no idea Christopher would come to congratulate him today, for if Christopher had come to create problems, how could he have prepared such a costly gift?
This jadeite item was worth several million dollars at the absolute least!
This was a piece of shocking news in the Phillips Manor.
“Mr. John, you don’t think 1 came here to cause trouble now, do you?”
With a pleasing face, Christopher questioned after presenting the jadeite piece to John.
John gazed at him, unable to express his emotions. He believed it was too incredible, beyond comprehension!
“Christopher, exactly what do you want to do?” As he questioned the guy, John stammered.
“Mr. John, I have no other plans. 1 came today expressly to congratulate you! Although we had a little argument, it was due to my immaturity. So 1 thought I’d use this occasion to apologize to you. This jadeite item has been meticulously chosen by myself, and I hope you like it!”
Christopher approached him with caution.
Everyone was stunned after hearing Christopher’s statements, standing still with startled emotions.
Of course, the Phillips family members were perhaps the most surprised!
To begin with, the Phillips family was fully aware of Christopher and John’s relationship; they were almost enemies. Christopher’s genuine desire to congratulate John was already unfathomable.
What startled them even more was that Christopher had presented such a costly gift to John.
But it wasn’t the most incredible aspect for the Phillips family.
What surprised them the most was that Christopher had a violent temper and was always ready to start an altercation at any time.
Christopher did not lose his cool today despite John and the others’ suspicions. Instead, he unwrapped the present package in front of everyone!
This was a strong indication that Christopher had yielded to John.
“Mr. Christopher, you’re being far too polite!”
Gifts really blinded people!
After viewing the jadeite item, John’s concerns had already evaporated, and he felt slightly happy instead.
Although the guests had recently humiliated him, Christopher’s had restored some of his pride, making him instinctively glad.
“You don’t have to be that courteous. So long as you don’t mind my present!” Christopher smiled in response.
“I don’t mind at all…”
“Mr. Christopher, let’s consider all the grudges between us settled from today onwards,” John remarked quickly, waving his hand. “What are your thoughts?” “Alright.” Christopher nodded quickly and without hesitation.
“There are a lot of people here today, so I won’t entertain you. When 1 have time, 1 will invite you to a separate supper!” John’s cheeks reddened since reconciling with Christopher was beneficial to him. He couldn’t show it since there were so many people there and observing, so he talked in such a curteous manner.
“All right, you don’t have to be concerned about me. 1’11 find somewhere to eat!” Christopher said quietly.
“Alright.” John nodded, motioning to Walter to receive the jadeite piece before greeting the other guests.
Everyone was perplexed as they glanced at John and Christopher. They couldn’t believe two long-standing adversaries had reconciled in this manner.
Connor’s eyes furrowed as he stared at Christopher, perplexed. He had a feeling Christopher didn’t come for John, but he couldn’t figure out who Christopher was, so he was baffled!
After greeting the visitors briefly, John cheerfully returned to his seat.
“I didn’t expect you to be so powerful, John. You’ve even beaten Christopher.” Brooklyn remarked to John, chuckling.
“Yes, Christopher is not your average individual. It certainly astounds me, John, that you could force him to surrender this way. Even if I had intervened personally, he might not have been thus grounded!” Gabriel elaborated.
“Mr. Christopher just came to wish me a happy birthday, and it’s not what you think…” As he calmly answered, John’s lips curved up with a grin.
Brooklyn and Gabriel exchanged grins but spoke nothing.
“Mr. Christopher, my father has reserved a seat for you over there. Please follow me.” Walter spoke respectfully to Christopher.
Christopher maintained a major position at Phillips Manor, regardless of the circumstances, and he had just given John face. As a result, John intended to put a table closest to him, giving Christopher a face.
“There’s no need to bother yourself. I’ll locate somewhere on my own!” He waved his hand lightly, then expanded his eyes and attentively studied the scene within the restaurant.
When he spotted Connor, he was filled with joy and headed straight towards him.
When Connor spotted him coming, he thought to himself, “This is not good!”
