Chapter 739
Joshua’s birthday banquet was a great event. All the famous families, companies, and
celebrities in Capitolas, the whole country, and even the world were present at the
banquet with expensive gifts.
Olivia was abroad. Although she did not come personally, she had got someone to send
the congratulatory gift.
Seeing the gifts being presented, the guests were amazed.
The gifts were way too expensive! They were too precious for words.
These gifts from the outsiders were presented to Joshua at the banquet hall. Joshua only
took a glance before the gifts were directly stored.
Joshua would only look at gifts from close relatives.
After the Phil family finished giving gifts, it was Ian’s turn.
Malcolm chuckled. “It seems Dad doesn’t like the gifts we give. I don’t see Dad showing
much interest in them. Ian, it’s all up to you. Dad dotes on you the most. The gifts you
give will suit him the most.”
“That’s right.” Salena chimed in. “In the past, I was the apple of Grandpa’s eye. Now
Grandpa has changed and doesn’t even look at me.”
Joshua glared at her. “Hmph, you are one to talk! No matter how many gifts you give, they
can’t compare to Nina.

“Let Nina come back to see me. No one can replace your place in my heart then.”
When she heard Nina’s name, Salena’s expression looked slightly unnatural. She lowered
her head and said nothing.
Joshua was in a good mood and did not want to make things unpleasa Seeing this, he
changed the topic and turned to Ian with a smile.
Everyone’s gaze also shifted to Ian.
They were all waiting for his gift.

As the center of attention, Ian did not panic at all. His expression was calm. Facing
everyone’s expectations, he said lazily, “Grandpa, you love paintings and ancient things,
so I’ve got more. Grandpa, please take your time to appreciate them.”
“It must be something good.” Orson chuckled. “Dad, Ian is rich. You must take a good
look. If it’s something bad, return them and let him get you some new ones.”
Orson’s amusing words made everyone laugh.
Ian raised his hand, and someone immediately presented an antique
crown.
Everyone’s eyes lit up. It was the crown the queen of Rodowa wore when she ascended
the throne three years ago. It was priceless.
Ian took them out one by one. They were all super precious gifts.
Even Salena was stunned. She said, “Ian, you are thoughtful. You must have put in much
effort.”
Joshua was so pleased that he grinned from ear to ear. It was not that he cared about the
preciousness of the gifts. Having lived to his age and social status, he had seen all good
things. The point was that Ian cared about him, which made him overjoyed.
There was only one last gift left.
Ian said in a low voice, “Grandpa, I know you are a big fan of ancient paintings, but I don’t
know much about them. After a few twists a I obtained a work by Master Darian Sherard.
Grandpa, please ap
it.”
Darian Sherard!
Heavens, everyone was shocked. Very few paintings of Master Darian Sherard’s paintings
had been passed down. It was said that only two or three of Darian’s paintings had been
passed down through the
generations.

Joshua was also thrilled. He loved Darian’s landscape paintings the most. When he heard
lan had obtained Darian’s painting, he waved his hand instantly. “Here. Let me take a
look.”
Ian personally took over the painting and cautiously offered it to Joshua.
When Orson saw this, the corners of his mouth curled up imperceptibly. He immediately
glanced at his son, Keith.
He knew that the show was about to begin.
He wondered how Joshua would feel when he saw this painting was no different from the
one Joshua had in his own house.
Would he be shocked? Would he be speechless? Or would he be disappointed by Ian’s
negligence for having given him a fake painting on his birthday?
Thinking of this, the smile on Orson’s face widened.
He could not wait to watch this show!
