It wasn't only Clover who answered. All of the Chuas answered with a resounding yes, looking very excited.

Iris chuckled. "Alright then. It's decided. Dom, help your sister process her papers so that she can come here immediately after her graduation."

"Yes, boss!" Dom answered right away.

"Oh boss! Thank you so much!!!" Clover clutched her chest, as she was overcome with emotions.

Their mother, Reina Chua, burst into tears. "Miss Xiulaaaaaan! You're an angel sent from heaven to my family! Thank you soooo much! Wuwuwu! Please continue to be good to my son, ha. I'll also leave my youngest daughter in your care. Wuwuwu! Can I hug you?"

"Of course, Auntie." Iris smiled at the emotional madam.

Reina hugged Iris tightly while sobbing hard because of gratitude and happiness. Her husband, Domingo Chua, also had glistening eyes but didn't cry like his wife.

Afterwards, Iris asked about the other sisters. Dom's eldest sister, Marjorie, was a stay-at-home mom to her two children. Her husband was a real estate agent.

Jin Liwei looked interested after hearing that. He then began talking to Marjorie's husband, asking him about his work. Jin Liwei was thinking that it would be nice to buy a vacation home in the Philippines for him and his bride.

Dom's second older sister, Linda Chua, was a marketing professional working for a Filipino company. Iris wasn't saying anything now, but she planned on poaching this sister to open Orchidia Beauty's Filipino branch in the future.

Later after dinner, everyone exchanged Christmas presents. Iris and Jin Liwei were very generous and extravagant in their gifts. Both the penthouse and mansion household staff received not only gifts but also bonuses in their salaries as well.

Of course, the children got the most presents. Little Jun, Ice Cream, Popcorn and Dom's two-year old nephew looked delighted at first but quickly became bored after opening only a few presents. The cats especially were only interested in the wrappings and boxes. They abandoned their mountain of gifts to resume playing with each other instead. It was Dom's ten-year old niece who was old enough to feel excited at all the presents and continued to open hers.

The Christmas celebration drew to a close. The children fell asleep and soon the adults felt tired as well. Everyone stayed and slept over at the mansion.

Iris and Jin Liwei returned to their suite. Both looked excited because they each had their own surprises for each other.

Jin Liwei stopped before they could enter their bedroom.

"Wait, love. I haven't given my Christmas present for you yet."

Jin Liwei opened a drawer at the suite's lounge room and took out a thick envelope. Then he handed it to her.

She tilted her head to the side when she felt the weight of the envelope.

"Open it," he urged her.

She did. When she saw what was inside, she frowned, feeling confused. Then as she read on, her eyes widened and she gasped.

"Darling! Is this real?"

"En. Merry Christmas, love," he said. "You like it?"

"I… This is too much…"

The envelope contained a purchase of business agreement. Jin Liwei bought the entire company of Gold Heights Condominiums and named Iris as its sole owner. Meaning, Iris now owned several buildings and properties across the country.

"Nothing is too much when it comes to you," Jin Liwei told her. "You deserve this and more."

"But darling—"

"It's yours." His tone was final.

Iris tried to negotiate. "How about this? Let's be co-owners instead. Okay?"

Jin Liwei put on a pitiful expression. "I'm already busy running the top company in the country. But if you really want to dump more work on my poor exhausted shoulders, then of course I'll do my best to be a co-owner and run this company with you."

Alas, Iris didn't catch that her darling was just acting to make her accept his Christmas present for her. Even though her emotional range already widened by a lot in recent months, her naiveté would still kick in sometimes.

"Oh. I'm sorry. I was too selfish and didn't think about how busy you are. Alright. I accept this present. I'll do my best to run the company and make it more prosperous. Don't worry. I won't let your purchase go to waste. Thank you, darling," she said, hugging his waist.

He hugged her as well and kissed her head. He felt a little guilty for duping her but it was for a good cause.

"I'm sure you'll run it well. And you're welcome, love," he murmured.

"Mmn." Iris inhaled his masculine scent that she liked so much. Still hugging him, she looked up at his face. "Darling…"

"Hm? What is it?"

"It's my turn to give my Christmas present to you."

"Oh."

"Let's go to the bedroom," she whispered.

He raised an eyebrow at her suddenly sultry tone but followed her like a puppy as she pulled him to their bedroom.

When they entered inside, his eyes widened in surprise. Petals of red roses were all over the bed and the floor. Scented red candles burned on tall golden stands, casting a soft, romantic glow across the room. He turned to look at his baby girl, silently asking her with his eyes what was going on.

She smiled and then ran her fingers over his clothed chest. However, Jin Liwei still felt the heat from her light touch.

"I'm not giving you any normal gifts because you can buy all the material things you want. So I decided that I'll give you a special treat tonight instead."

He took a sharp inhale of breath, his eyes darkening with desire. But before he could wrap his arms around her and carry her to the waiting bed, she pushed him away and stepped back.

"Go shower first. I'll read through this purchase of business agreement while I wait for you to finish."

"Let's shower together," he said in a husky voice

"No, thanks. You go first," she insisted.

He groaned and was about to persuade her to join him in the bathroom, but she already sat on the chaise longue and began reading the documents. Ignored by her, he sighed and entered the bathroom alone. He showered as quickly as he could, excited about what was soon to happen.
