Eaton saw that the two refused to accept his gifts, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.
He naturally knew that the gifts were not properly given. But he just wanted to give them on purpose!
"These things are only valuable in the hands of people who know how to appreciate them. I spend my
days in the research laboratory. It would be a pity to let them collect dust!"
Sean was sitting beside Molly, and he had kept silent. But he had seen Eaton's actions.
Others might not understand, but as a man, he understood Eaton's purpose well. Undoubtedly, Eaton
was trying to impress the May family.
Eaton made no secret of his feelings for Molly, which was a complete lack of respect for Sean.
Sean narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Mr. Scott, you've probably stayed abroad for too long, so it
seems you don't understand the standards of gift-giving in this country! Why don't I ask my assistant to
introduce you?"
Eaton was stunned for a moment and slowly looked at Sean. The two looked at each other, and there
was an unknown light in each other's eyes.
With an innocent look on Eaton's face, he said politely," Okay, thanks, Mr. Anderson."
Tony was quite blunt, and said, "Mr. Scott, you and Ms. May are just colleagues. It would be improper
for the May family to accept such expensive gifts from you. If they accept, others will think that the Mayfamily doesn't have basic social etiquette. Some people may even gossip about your relationship with
Ms. May. If the word gets out, the May family reputation will be ruined."
After Eaton heard Tony’s words, he responded calmly," Tony, you’re being so serious! I just gave gifts
as I wished without thinking too much. As for the relationship between me and Molly, I don't think it
should be so clear. In my heart, she is my family."
"That's wrong! You and Ms. May are not related by blood at all. You are not even her close friend. How
could she be
your family? Besides, Mr. Anderson and Ms. May are about to get married, and their love is deep. Their
children are growing up. Maybe there will be two more next year... Your behavior is so inappropriate!
Others might think you’re here to propose marriage."
Tony's sarcasm was sharp, and he wasn't even trying to be subtle at the end. It was so blatant!
When the members of the May family heard this, they became aware of it and realized something else.
They couldn't help but look at Eaton in surprise. Molly was also a little surprised.
She had always treated Eaton as her colleague, and she had never had any other ideas about him.
Moreover, she had never thought about him romantically!
Molly immediately said, "Eaton, you should take this gift back! Indeed, it's a bit out of etiquette."
After Eaton heard it, he froze.
But he quickly collected himself and said lightly, "Sorry, it seems that I didn't grasp the scale well. I
didn't expect that giving a gift would cause such a big misunderstanding! Well, I'll listen to you and take
it back. I’m sorry I was abrupt..."With that, he looked at Sean and forced a smile, "Mr. Anderson, please don’t take it to heart."
"Of course not! Mr. Scott, as long as you're more discreet, nothing will happen." Sean responded
playfully.
The two seemed to be polite, but a war without gun smoke had begun.
Seeing this, Grandpa Dave couldn't help shaking his head.
He knew that his granddaughter was outstanding enough to make Eaton covet her. But in his heart,
Sean was the one approved to be his future grandson-in-law.
