Chapter 300

Amber nodded. “Okay then, Sienna. But when I get back, you have to come pick me up, promise?”

“Of course,” Sienna said softly, reaching out to gently pat her head.

Tomorrow was Albert’s birthday, and Sienna was planning to bring Vivian and Winifred with her.

Winifred saw that Vivian had already changed into her dress, so she looked at the black one in front of her and decided to put it on, too; she didn’t want to look out of place.

“Are you guys ready?” Sienna walked out in a vintage lavender dress, looking like an angel straight out of a painting, beautiful but not gaudy.

Vivian’s sky-blue dress made her look like a mysterious princess from the deep sea, elegant and gentle, perfectly matching her style.

Winifred, on the other hand, was dressed in inky black. The deep, oppressive color fit her aura perfectly. There was a brooding, ruthless edge in her eyes, and her long hair flowed down her back, merging seamlessly with the black dress.

“Great,” Sienna smiled gently. “It’s beautiful. Winifred, do you like it?”

Winifred nodded. “I do. Did you design this dress?” She could tell at a glance that it matched her tastes perfectly, and the faint little flowers on the hem gave it a playful vibe.

“Yes, I just gave a few suggestions. As long as you like it, that’s what matters,” Sienna replied.

Vivian gazed at her reflection in the mirror. The diamonds on her dress looked exquisitely set and substantial, yet the whole dress felt light as air. It was obvious this was a custom piece–and definitely not cheap.

“It’s Grandpa’s birthday today, so you should all look your absolute best,” Sienna said.

Winifred didn’t really remember much about the Bayer family, but if Sienna called him Grandpa, then so be it.

“Let’s go,” Sienna said.

The three of them were without a doubt the biggest highlight of the Bayer family’s birthday party. If it weren’t for people holding the crowd back, everyone would’ve been scrambling to get close to Sienna, putting on their best smiles and trying to get noticed.

“Happy birthday, Grandpa,” Sienna said first, then presented her gift, a box made of wood.

When she opened it, there was a scroll inside.

Sienna, dressed in her elegant dress, wore a gentle smile that radiated respect for the elder.

“Oh my god, isn’t that the super expensive painting?”

“Wow, that must be worth at least 1.5 or 2 million. Miss Enna is truly so filial.”

“The price doesn’t matter. What really counts is that this is a long-lost treasure, a once-in-a-lifetime find.”

“Happy birthday, Grandpa,” Vivian said, her smile dazzling.

Then she presented her gift, a double-sided embroidered decoration featuring Albert’s portrayal, wishing him a long and healthy life.

“Happy birthday, Grandpa,” Winifred said with a gentle smile. Her gift was a single, fist-sized luminous pearl that glowed like a tiny moon.

“Thanks, girls. Just having you all here is the best present I could ever get,” Albert said, his eyes brimming with happiness.

Sitting there in his suit, the gray-haired patriarch looked especially spirited, his face full of excitement.

Beside him sat his wife, her sharp eyes filled with loving care, still full of energy and life.

“You’re all such good girls. Come here, let me have a look at you,” she said with a warm smile.

The two elders were absolutely delighted to see the three of them. When they heard Amber couldn’t make it because of her SATs, they looked a little disappointed.

“Come, this is a little welcome gift from me,” she said. Marie took an emerald necklace out of the box and waved for Sienna to come over.

Sienna bent down, and Marie gently placed the gleaming, top-grade emerald necklace, worth over 30 million dollars, around her neck.

The necklace set off Sienna’s dress perfectly, making her skin look almost luminous.

Vivian and Winifred each got an emerald bracelet. Everyone knew that even though the Bayer family had seen better days, they were real-deal royal nobility. Everyone was jealous, seeing three such priceless gifts handed out.

Meanwhile, Josef was shoveling cake into his mouth. He was clearly jealous, but there was no way he could resist the lure of sweets; he’d had a sweet tooth ever since he was a kid.

Back in middle school, Josef had been overweight, so the family nutritionist and his relatives kept him on a super strict diet, practically starving him.

“Hey Mr. Bayer, hey Mrs. Bayer,” a cheerful male voice called out.
