In the hall, five servants stood in a row, bowing their heads. Each of them held a delicate jewelry box that contained exquisite pieces. It was time for Dora to decide which one she would wear.
Vivian's birthday party would take place tonight. All the members of the Shi family were invited. In fact, all of them received golden invitation cards, but only Jason, Jessica, John, James, Chester, and Dora would attend the party.
James and Chester looked calm. Dora was joyful. She really wanted to go to the party and have a great time.
"Uncle John, please have a seat. I'll go upstairs and try on the dress I'll be wearing tonight. And then you can help me choose the right accessories." This was why Dora dragged John here.
Before John could speak, Dora was already flitting up the stairs. John frowned slightly. He did not sign up for this.
Noticing the change in John's expression, James quickly approached him and handed him a peeled apple. He smiled at his favorite uncle. "Try the apple, Uncle John. It's very sweet and delicious."
John glanced at James indifferently and did not say anything.
"Look at my arm. I was injured, and yet I pee
as you tell them you want the bag, they will give it to you. It's such an easy thing," she whined.
"No." John was firm in his decision. He would not break the rules.
"Uncle John..." Dora pleaded. She batted her eyelashes at John, but John did not budge. Suddenly, she put one hand on her forehead and said weakly, "My head aches. I think I'm going to faint."
"Call the doctor." Without even blinking, John knew that she was only pretending to be sick.
It was exactly what Nina did yesterday. It was such a rookie move.
Dora pouted, "Uncle John, doctors can't cure my headache. Only that bag can cure it. It is said that bags can cure all kinds of diseases for women."
She liked that bag, and she would do anything for the things that she liked. She would try her best to convince John to get it for her.
The other members of the Shi family spoiled Dora and always granted her requests, but John was different. He just said coldly, "Only medicine can cure diseases. Do you honestly think that line would work on me?"
James burst into laughter.
No one could take advantage of his Uncle John's power and connections.
Except for Nina.
