Chapter 5064
The old lady and her two daughters-in-law insisted on giving Aitana a gift. The old lady’s excuse was simple—Aitana had spent the day chatting with her and keeping her company, so she wanted to give her something in return.
Her two daughters-in-law offered gifts as well, treating them as small, polite gestures since this was their first time meeting Aitana.
To keep Aitana from feeling uncomfortable, all three of their gifts were modest—simple, thoughtful, not extravagant, but also not too cheap. Just enough to show sincerity without making her feel pressured.
On the way home, Aitana said shyly, “I promised Grandma York I would visit, and now I’ve received gifts from your mom and your aunt. I feel really embarrassed.”
Driving, Alex reassured her. “They just gave you two sets of skincare products, right? One from each of them. Altogether it’s only a few thousand dollars. That’s nothing—not expensive at all. It’s just a small gift, so you really don’t need to feel bad.”
He added with a laugh, “If they gave you something actually expensive—like the jewelry my mom collects—then yes, you’d have every right to feel overwhelmed. But skincare worth a few thousand dollars? Don’t stress. They do this for every girl they meet for the first time, not just you.”
