Chapter 10 Twins? !
In the living room.
Janice met the elders of the Clinton family one by one.
Shawn took a blue velvet brocade box from the servant, "Janice, this is the new wedding gift I prepared for you. Come and see if you like it or not."
Janice walked over obediently and took the box with both hands, "Thank you, Grandpa."
"Quickly open and see. This is what your grandma once left. She said the grandson who gets married first could get it." Shawn raised his hand and touched the sparse gray beard on his chin, always smiling. Marcus slightly smiled at Janice's direction, "This is Grandma's heirloom."
"So precious?" Janice was about to open the box but then she hesitated, "I..."
Marcus' aunt, Freya Clinton, saw Janice's hesitation. Then she smiled lovingly, "It's not precious. But your grandma said if you like it at the first glance, you can accept it. If you don't like it, you can return it to us."
Hearing this, Janice breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and then opened the box.
On the bottom surface of the bright yellow satin, there was a blood-red round jade pendant lying quietly, with a hint of white in the red.
Janice didn't understand jade. But for some reason, at a glance, she always felt that this piece of jade was a bit familiar. Her eyes lit up. Then she picked it up.
She felt cool in her hand. Sunlight reflected on the jade. Janice's eyes flickered. She seemed to see the red in it was flowing. Then she couldn't help but felt a little curious, so she picked it up and observed it in the sun, "Wow, it's amazing. It's like a human blood vessel. The blood inside is flowing."
Hearing this, the elders on the sofa were all startled.
"Don't scare us. I have seen that jade pendant. When can it be flowing?" Helena snorted disdainfully.
Freya and her father glanced at each other. Their eyes were filled with relief.
"Helena, you don't know that. Back then, my mother said that only the person with the purer mind can see the blood flowing in it. Like us, after half a lifetime of earthly life, our eyes have long been tainted by the world. Naturally, we can't see the mystery there anymore." Freya explained.
Janice was stunned. Then she quickly put the jade pendant back into the box, closed the box, and handed it to Shawn with both hands, "Grandpa, such a magical treasure, it must be very precious. I dare not accept it."
"It's about fate. Everyone has seen that you and this jade pendant are indeed destined. Just take it!" Shawn poked the dragon cane on the carpet. Then he said kindly to Janice. "This, Marcus..." Janice asked Marcus.
After all, her marriage with Marcus was a flash marriage. They had no feelings, so she felt a little bit ashamed to take it.
The man in the wheelchair lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea. Then he said to her, "Janice, if you don't accept it, Grandpa will think you don't want to be my wife." Janice's face was blushed. She bowed respectfully to Shawn, "Thank you, Grandpa."
"Good!" Shawn raised his head and laughed heartily.
As soon as Shawn stopped laughing, a figure walked into the living room, accompanied by a joking voice, "What happened? Why is Grandpa laughing so happily?" Janice turned around curiously. When she saw the man who walked in, she was shocked that the box in her hand fell directly on the carpet.
The man was about 1.9 meters tall... But this was not the point.
The key was that the man's sharp facial features... He actually looked exactly like the man in the wheelchair!
Janice subconsciously turned to look at the wheelchair next to her, confirming that the two of them indeed looked exactly the same. Then she asked in astonishment, "Twins?" Freya got up, picked up the box on the carpet and handed it to Janice. She smiled gently, "Janice is so surprised to see Kyle. You don't know that Marcus has a twin brother, right?" "Thank you, Auntie! I really don't know." Janice bit her lip awkwardly and took over the box.
She was really ignorant. She had never heard that Marcus was one of the twins!
As she spoke, Kyle Clinton had already walked over. He glanced at everyone. After greeted them one by one, he turned his attention to Janice, "This is my brother's wife?"
The man's gaze fell on her with interest and disdain. The smile on his face was very unruly.
"Hello, I'm Janice." Janice nodded slightly to him.
Seeing the look on Kyle's face closely, she suddenly understood that although the two brothers looked exactly the same, the expressions on their faces were completely different, especially the same deep eyes.
Although Marcus couldn't see anything, his eyes were always gentle, and his face was usually calm. He wasn't like the rumored man who had a violent personality and would kill at every turn at all. But this Kyle looked cynical.
Whether it was her family or Ryan, they had never mentioned that there were twins in the Clinton family.
Was this a secret?
