The Revenge of the Mute Wife by Melanie Paulson novel Chapter 258

Chapter 258 

“Ah… I imagine you didn’t accept it, right?” Jayden remarked, recognizing the subtle signs that Cupid had worked his magic. 

“Exactly. I told Erika that accidents happen and that I was fine,” Elliot said, glancing at the blonde. “Harry also swore he’d never do something like that again and promised to be more careful.” 

“Oh… so Erika worked her magic because now he’s not the idiot but Harry,” Deborah teased, noticing how Elliot blushed instantly. 

“Ugh… don’t tease me,” Elliot protested as they all laughed. 

“Ah… hahaha.” 

“James, you too?” he asked, hearing his nephew laugh, even though the little boy didn’t understand anything, but found everyone’s faces funny. 

“So, if the console was for her… does Erika like video games?” Jayden asked. 

“Yes! She actually likes the same game I do, and sometimes at night, we team up to take down other teams,” Elliot declared excitedly. 

“In fact, Erika is already important! She and her brother will be joining us for our New Year’s Eve dinner so they won’t be alone, since their parents will be working that night,” George said, noting the smile of happiness on his son’s face. “Although, more than toasting, they’ll probably be playing all night.” 

“So, it’s going to be a night of gaming,” Nicholas said, amused. 

“Yeah, with Dad, we’ll be playing squads with the goal of getting the first victory crown of the year,” Elliot declared excitedly. 

“I’ll do my best, but I still don’t understand how to press buttons on a controller to move a character or aim,” George confessed. 

“Haha, well, friend, be glad–you won’t be as rusty as we will be when someone asks us to play with them,” Nicholas said, looking at James, who was babbling as he played with his hands but started smiling when he noticed they were watching him. 

“Such a flirt,” Deborah remarked. 

“In that case, I’m already winning,” George declared, noticing that this made his friends frown. 

“You might have an advantage in the future, but today I’m going to win by giving the best gifts to MY grandson, Eric declared, snapping his fingers.. 

Immediately, the butler turned on the Christmas tree lights, revealing the large number of presents underneath. 

“Ah… Gaa…” Seeing so many colors was fascinating to James. 

“When did they multiply?” Jayden asked in amazement A few hours ago, there were only about twenty gifts, and now the tree was full. 

“When you all went to rest, the gifts we ordered arrived Samantha explained.

“That’s playing dirty, but two can play at that game,” Nicholas announced, pointing to his back where a couple of servants were approaching with the large bag of gifts he had brought from his house. 

“Well, that means we’ll have an interesting competition tonight, right, Dad?” Elliot declared, glancing sideways at him.

“Hmm…” George muttered, and immediately, the driver and other servants entered with boxes full of gifts they had brought 

James felt his grandmother lift him as they moved to the living room to start receiving some colorful boxes. 

“Not so fast; we also bought gifts for MY son,” Jayden said, taking his wife’s hand to join them. 

Deborah watched in amusement as the toy war began, and they even put up a scoreboard to rate th points based on the little one’s reaction. However, her only concern was whether James would be able to play with all those toys before the next party, where he would surely be given more gifts.
