Chapter 822 - 007 surgery successful
New Year’s Eve night, Celia, with Jordy by her side, saw the splendid fireworks she hadn’t seen in many years, and felt the most beautiful snowflakes.
That night, she smiled especially happily, and in the end, they each went back to their rooms to rest. At eight in the morning, Jordy rang her doorbell, holding two bowls of steaming sweet dumplings.
On the first day of the new year, Ellie called and invited them over for a meal. There really wasn’t much to eat on the streets and alleys, so Jordy looked at her and let her reply to Ellie.
Celia thought about it and agreed.
First, she hoped Jordy could have more contact with them, and second, she actually really wanted to see Ellie’s separate courtyard. She had seen it on the TV the previous night, and it looked truly magnificent.
"..." Seeing that Celia had already agreed, Jordy didn’t say much, "Since we’re going, let’s go to the mall and buy some gifts. It’s not nice to go empty-handed."
"...I thought you’d be angry, I’m glad you’re not. Honestly, I just wanted to see the interior of Auntie’s separate courtyard. Thank you, Jordy." Celia earnestly called his name instead of ’Big Brother’.
"Yeah, I know." Jordy nodded seriously, as if he had already seen through her little scheme.
So, the two went shopping at the mall and bought some New Year’s goods to bring to Ellie’s house.
Ellie and Marcus were already happy to see them arrive, but when they saw all the things they had brought, they felt a bit embarrassed, "Having you both here is the best New Year’s gift for us, why bring so many things?"
"Auntie, Uncle, it’s only right. You’re cooking for us, so what’s a few gifts compared to that, and besides, it’s the new year." Celia always had a sweet tongue. She would never show a bad face to anyone who treated her well, not to mention the special relationship these two had with Jordy.
