Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 979

"You're right. The necklace does match the gown I've prepared. Why don't you wear this tomorrow, Shannon?" suggested Annalise.

The other Jensens naturally were delighted to see Caleb and Shannon mending their relationship, chiming in with a few words of agreement. Among them, Janice was more forward. "Why don't you try it on now, Shannon?"

Faced with everyone's anticipated gazes, Shannon lowered her eyes slowly and stated flatly, "I don't want to."

Everyone was taken aback, and Caleb was in disbelief. "You don't want my present?"

Shannon gazed at him confidently. "Yeah."

Her brief reply put the rest of the family in an awkward position.

Marie piped up. "I understand that Caleb has done things to upset you previously, but it's all in the past, Shannon. Besides, he apologized and even prepared such a beautiful gift for you in advance. Don't be so petty, alright?"

Hector knitted his brows and was ready to interject when Caleb stood up suddenly with a cold face. "If you don't care for the gift I specially prepared for you, I won't insist on it."

He then turned to the family. "You guys saw it. She doesn't like me. So, it'd be nice if all of you could stop saying I targeted her from now on!"

While speaking, he turned around with the jewelry box, ready to leave, when Shannon's icy voice rang. "Are you sure you specifically prepared this gift for me?"

At that point, Alex interfered, saying, "You asked that as if Caleb prepared the gift for someone else. Now, quit being childish and apologize to him."
