Chapter 309 The Best Gift
Yolanda was hesitant, and Jacqueline was also stunned…
Logan and Elena sat on one side. They seemed to have known each other’s thoughts. They didn’t intend to say anything, and just looked at each other and smiled.
“But…”
Yolanda cautiously looked at Jacqueline, and Jacqueline became more confused.
Cornel also heard what they said. He was curious too, “What’s going on?”
“Since you all want to know, then I’ll tell you!” Yolanda finally decided to tell them.
Jacqueline immediately pulled Yolanda, and then Yolanda turned to look at her, “Mom, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to say it, but I can’t hide it anymore. Besides, the day is not far away. It doesn’t matter if I tell them, right?”
“So, what’s going on?” Jacqueline said in a voice that only she could hear. NôvelDrama.Org content.
Yolanda laughed and said, “Grandpa, dad, mom has been busy with something a few days ago. You can guess what she has done?”
“What?”
George frowned.
Yolanda stopped keeping them guessing, “Mom has made gifts for us all these days, all of which are made by hand! When I went to see her a few days ago, I found her ten fingers were all pierced!”
When Cornel heard that, he immediately got worried, “Why are you so careless? How are your fingers now?”
Jacqueline immediately understood what was going on. She smiled awkwardly and hid her hand behind her back, “It’s been some days. I’m fine.”
“Really? What have you made? It’s still early, so we can have a look at your gifts.” George immediately proposed.
Jacqueline subconsciously looked at Yolanda.
Yolane’s smile was so innocent, “Okay. I will bring them to you!” She ran out. Jacqueline sat there, very uneasy.
Cornel believed what Yolanda said. He took her hand and looked at it carefully, “Why do you want to make handicrafts for us suddenly? You don’t do needlework all the time. You are asking for trouble.”
“I’m fine.” Jacqueline smiled, “I just have nothing to do. The most important is to make you guys happy.”
“You are always nice to everyone. I…” Cornel was touched. He lowered his head and carefully caressed her hand, “Let me see your hand. Are you okay?”
Jacqueline subconsciously took back her hands. Cornel held them tighter, “Do not hide. Let me have a look.”
“It’s been healed for a long time. You can’t see the scars now!”
“It’s so lucky for you not to get the scars.”
Hearing their words, Elena said, “Aunt Jacqueline, you are so sweet. So, have you prepared gifts for me and Logan?”
“Eh…”
Jacqueline’s smile froze. Yolanda just left without saying anything. She didn’t take her with her and just left her here. How could she know what she had made and whom she had made the gifts for?
“Haven’t you prepared for me?” Elena put on a false pity.
“Of course, you have the gifts!” Jacqueline blurted out.
“Really? You are so nice. What have you made?”
Elena pressed on her. It seemed that she could tell what Jacqueline was thinking about through her eyes. Jacqueline panicked.
Cornel was not satisfied with Elena’s attitude, and he also noticed that Jacqueline was uneasy. He thought Elena was bullying his wife, so he immediately said coldly, “You will know after you see the gifts. You don’t need to question her now.”
Elena smiled and stopped talking. She just gave a meaningful glance at Jacqueline.
Jacqueline straightened her back and turned her face away awkwardly.
Logan tugged the person on the side towards his arms, “Let’s just be the looker-on. Don’t talk too much.”
“I didn’t,” Elena said, “You have not sent me a gift. Why couldn’t I ask others for a gift?”
“You want a gift?”
Logan smiled, “I have given the best gift in this world to you. Why are you still not satisfied?”
Elena subconsciously blinked and was somewhat unable to understand what he meant.
Logan put his warm palm on her belly, “I’ve given you my most precious thing, and now it’s being nurtured here. Isn’t it the best gift?”
“Don’t be garrulous to me!”
Elena pushed him. But when thinking about the baby, she could not help but smile.
Logan pulled her into his arms again, and grasped her waist with his hand, “Don’t join in the fun. It’s the matter between Yolanda and Jacqueline.”
Elena’s eyelashes caressed his cheek, “But I also have the right to speak. Besides, we can’t have things as they wish.”
“You are so smart.”
Logan smiled and fondled her nose.
Elena covered her nose. She was speechless.
After a while, Yolanda came over with several large bags in her hands. She breathed heavily when she walked into the room.
“Grandpa, these are all the New Year gifts that mom prepared for you. She originally planned to give them to you on New Years Day, but I let it slip.”
Yolanda said, and then picked up a blanket and spread it on George’s legs, “Grandpa, your legs will hurt in winter, so mom prepared a blanket for you. It’s very warm.”
Yolanda sat next to Jacqueline and pushed her, “Mom, you show dad’s gift to him!”
Only then did Jacqueline realize what was going on. She found a gray and white scarf and gave it to him, “This is for you. I know your neck and ears must be very cold after going out.”
Cornel took it, and felt so warm, “Thank you.”
Jacqueline smiled and was a little shy.
Yolanda smiled and looked at Elena, “Elena, you and Logan also have gifts! This is the cloak for you, and Logan’s gloves!”
Elena held the cloak in her hand and felt its texture was very good. The cloak’s color was quite appropriate to match other clothes.
George also liked it very much, “This blanket is good. It’s much warmer than the blanket I brought home from abroad.”
“That’s right. It’s the hard work of my mom. She asked me to choose the cloth and thread.”
“Our gifts are also token of your regard.” Elena looked at her and smiled gently.
Yolanda nodded, “Yes. Do you like it?”
“Yes…” Elena looked down at the cloak in her hand and suddenly said, “Jacqueline is really good at needlework. I find that our gifts are totally different from each other’s. And the weaving methods are also different. I think…Jacqueline must have made great efforts, right?”
