Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 412

"I'll swap it out with my old laptop tomorrow," said Harold.

He was pleased with how thoughtful Yvonne was and thought, "With such a thoughtful daughter like you, Yvonne, I won't have to worry so much. I'll have more time and energy to focus on work."

To him, Yvonne was more suitable than Yolanda to take over the family business from him in the future, even if Yvonne had displayed some scheming qualities in her personality that he didn't like recently. If she could use these abilities to run the company, that would serve to be a plus point for her.

Yvonne's gift had made the other gifts pale in comparison.

After that, Harold opened the gifts from Winnie and Yolanda. He was happy, but he didn't react much.

Yolanda didn't really care since she didn't put much effort into picking out a gift for Harold anyway. She merely deduced from the original Yolanda's personality and actions as to what she would do and bought a tie for Harold as a gift.

"A bumpkin will forever be a bumpkin for sure. Even the gifts you give are so shabby." Paul, however, wouldn't forgo any chance to mock Yolanda.

"That's enough. Today's your Uncle Harold's birthday. Stop that." Alice might be saying that on the surface, but her smug expression suggested that she meant otherwise.

Harold's face darkened, but he still remained silent.

"Eat up, everyone. The food won't taste as good if it's cold."

At that moment, Yvonne chimed in to pacify the situation with much faux thoughtfulness. "Paul, Yolanda had put a lot of effort into picking out a gift, but having bad taste isn't her fault. If you comment on her like this, it'll hurt her feelings."

"Hah! I couldn't care less if her feelings are hurt or not. Trash will still be trash."

"Okay everyone, let's try the soup."

Diana was suddenly reminded of the gift that Eleanor had delivered to her this morning.
