"Isn't that so? Xyla really did get married to a good person." May Conner was forced to put in sgood words. After that, she turned to look at the Dior bag on the table and changed the topic. "Xyla, what did you get your father?" she asked.
"It's the newest men's watch from Dior." Xyla chuckled.
"How nice. I bet it must be expensive," May said.
"Not too bad... About 500,000 dollars," Xyla said.
"You always give us expensive gifts. Emily gave your father a watch too, and it cost 1,000,000 dollars. Also, Uncle Sullivan gave your father a golden tortoise. It's huge, and it costs several hundred thousand too..." May said.
Xyla knew what May was trying to imply. May was simply trying to compare her gift to Emily's, and she wanted to make Emily and the Sullivan family's presence known. Indirectly, May wanted to imply that the Sullivan family was better than the Batton family because they offered gifts while the Batton family didn't even show up. "Ding-dong... Ding-dong..."

After that, they nodded politely at Jeremy and May.
"What's going on?" "I have no idea... These people appear to work for Stanley. Isn't that so?" "I'm not sure. There are so many things. A golden tortoise pales in comparison." The Quest family's relatives all seemed very curious, and they began whispering among themselves.
May felt extremely embarrassed by what they were saying.
"Mr. Quest, nice to meet you. These are gifts from the president and his wife. They send their best wishes to you for the 25th anniversary of Quest Group since its establishment," one of the men dressed in black said.
