The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 969

The brothers stare in absolute disbelief as the Calhoun family staff hauls box after box of extravagant gifts into the house. Within minutes, two or three entire guest rooms are completely packed to the ceiling.

It is ridiculously excessive.

If they didn't know better, they would think the Calhouns had looted a national treasury.

Tara stares at the mountain of presents, completely at a loss for words. She looks at Catherine and Katie, caught between amusement and shock. "This... this is way too much! We'd need to build a new wing just to store all this."

Standing nearby, Grandma Eleanor and Aunt Kellen are equally stunned. Despite living in luxury their entire lives, neither has ever witnessed a proposal gift this outrageously lavish.

Eleanor clears her throat, trying to maintain her matriarchal composure. "Exactly. Your presence is a gift in itself. There's no need for all this pageantry."

Still, seeing how deeply the Calhoun family values her precious granddaughter completely puts the old woman's heart at ease. She knows Tara will never be mistreated in her new home. And even if she ever is, the Dennis family is strong enough to back her up. Seeing her fractured family finally united and thriving, Eleanor feels a profound sense of peace. Her only lingering sorrow is that her late son isn't here to witness it.

Her eyes prick with tears, but knowing this is a day of absolute joy, she quickly dabs them away before anyone notices.

"Oh, it's nothing! Everything the Calhoun family owns will eventually belong to Danny and Tara anyway. The proposal gifts just need to reflect our sincerity!" Katie waves it off with a lighthearted laugh. She genuinely feels she hasn't brought enough. Had she not worried about intimidating them with a literal fleet of trucks, she would have brought twice as much.

Little does she know, they are already thoroughly intimidated.
