Chapter 644: Chapter 644: Returning the Favor.
Every Christmas Eve, Father would give red envelopes to her and the servants in the house.
For Emily Walker, this was quite unusual.
She had heard of giving red envelopes during the Spring Festival, but not on Christmas Eve.
As the red envelope was handed to her, she wanted to decline, but Angela Reid stopped her.
“It’s like this every year, it’s your father’s first red envelope for you; how could you not accept it?” Her soft, watery voice signaled Emily to accept it.
Emily looked at her mother, Angela Reid, and then at her smiling father, Baxter Walker, and ultimately, she silently accepted her father’s first red envelope.
After receiving the red envelope and Peaceful Fruit, Emily suddenly realized that she hadn’t prepared any gifts for them.
She glanced at the tea table beside her little brother and saw the Peaceful Fruit and small gifts he had given her earlier. It seemed she could only offer them what they had already offered her.
Picking up the Peaceful Fruit, Emily looked at Camila Walker, “Well, I haven’t prepared anything either, so I’ll give this to you.”
Since Camila had already given her one, it would be impolite not to reciprocate.
Upon hearing this, Camila couldn’t help but look over. She glanced at Emily, but her black star eyes couldn’t see a hint of happiness.
But she didn’t refuse it, instead, she reached out her hand to take the Peaceful Fruit and said, “Thank you.”
Seeing the warming relationship between the two, the couple beside them couldn’t help but smile at each other.
They wanted this outcome more than anyone else.
Camila looked at the exquisitely wrapped Peaceful Fruit and decided to unwrap it.
Emily was a little surprised; she just casually opened it?
Unwrapping the beautiful wrapping paper revealed a shiny red apple, exquisite in shape and appearance.
Throwing the wrapping paper into the trash can, Camila stood up with the apple and walked towards the kitchen.
Emily looked on in shock as Camila entered the kitchen and came back out with a bite out of the red apple…
She just ate it like that?
Emily’s mouth twitched a few times, but it seemed that nothing was wrong.
It’s Peaceful Fruit, of course, it’s better to eat it for peace!
“What are you looking at? Isn’t the one you gave me for me to eat?” Seeing her staring, Camila passed by her coldly as she went upstairs and asked in a cold voice.
Emily felt a bit embarrassed, “Uh, of course.”
It seemed that the apple Camila had given her was really just an extra; from her attitude, she still seemed to dislike Emily very much.
Forget it, yesterday’s enemies wouldn’t become friends today, let alone ‘sisters’!
Staring at her, Camila took another bite of the apple, her face cold, and went upstairs without paying any more attention to Emily.
“Camila, aren’t you going out later?” Seeing her go upstairs, Angela Reid asked curiously.
Every Christmas Eve, the Walker family would go out to the city’s One Plaza. There, every year, many Wishing Trees would be set up, and many people would pray for peace for their loved ones on this night.
Camila turned her head, “I will, but I’m going to change my clothes first.”
Hearing her mother say this, Emily looked puzzled at Angela Reid, “Are we going out later?”
“Yes, we’re going to pray for peace, it will be lively,” Angela Reid replied with a gentle smile.
Upon hearing this, Emily couldn’t help but become curious, looking forward to their outing later.
