Chapter 843
Simon ced the heart-shaped cake before her and said with a smile, "I just baked it. Let me insert
these candles into the cake, and you can make a wish!"
Emily, pleasantly surprised, watched him put those colorful candles into the cake one by one with
his long, beautiful hands. The depression in her eyes disappeared instantly, and her eyes widened
as she said, "I thought you''ve forgotten!"
"So, that was why you were in a bad temper just now." Simon slightly raised his eyebrows.
Embarrassed, Emily said awkwardly, "When did I lose my temper?"
Simon cast a side nce at her with the pair of charming eyes and smiled pleasantly. He did not
tease her anymore. Then he found that there was no lighter to light the candle. Since Emily was
pregnant, he had given up smoking and did not carry a lighter with him. So, he went to the living
room to get one and lit the candles one by one.
With the candlelight swaying, Emily closed her eyes and put her palms together to make a birthday
wish. When she opened her eyes, Simon''s handsome features came into view. Then they lowered
their heads and blew out all the candles together.
Simon walked over with one hand in his pocket and stopped behind her.
When Emily wondered what he was up to, Simon leaned over and untied the ne with the
silver little fish pendant around her neck. Then, like a magician, he pulled out a red rope from his
trouser pocket.
It was not a single rope. Emily could tell that three ropes weaved the ne. With a closer look,
she saw them twist into a delicate pattern.
Simon put the red ne through the small fish pendant she wore for a long time. Then, Emily
saw another smaller fish appeared between his fingers. Like the original fish, this one was also a
silver one, but it looked vivid. With the silver light it shed, it seemed as if this brand-new smaller
fish was alive.
All of a sudden, she was attracted by it. "Simon, what''s this?"
"Fish!" Simon curled his lips.
"..." Emily rolled her eyes. Of course, she knew it was fish!
Simon put the red ne through the smaller fish too. Then he pinched each end with his index
fingers and thumbs and put the red ne around her neck again.
Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.
Emily lifted up the long hair behind her head. As Simon was wearing the ne for her, his
slightly rough fingertips touch the skin behind her neck asionally. She felt itchy, and so did her
heart. She looked down, her eyesnding on the big and small fish on her corbone.
Simon''s peach blossom eyes were shining. "This little fish is you, and this smaller fish is our baby!"
"What about you?" Emily blinked.
Simon raised his eyebrows and said in a low and deep voice, "I''m the red rope. I''ll stay with you
forever and bound all of us together!"
He wanted to bound all of us together forever.
Why would such a sweet promise frighten her?
Emily just could not stop herself from touching the smaller fish and the red rope. Simon curled his
lips and exined. "A few days ago, I learned to make this red ne from my grandmother. I
made a lover knot by three single red ropes, which means that we''ll be together for three lives at
least!"
Emily was so delighted in her heart.
With this ne as a birthday present, she no longer felt jealous when she thought of the little
scarf and socks he made for their baby!
She twisted the red ne around her fingers and could not help smiling.
But... Three lives at least?
Emily pulled back her long hair and raised her head. "Ahem, beast, to learn the sweet promise, you
must have watched many romantic TV series, haven''t you?"
Simon was speechless.
When he lowered his delicate face to kiss her, Emily meekly closed her eyes.
"Mrs. Chin, happy birthday!" He said with his low voice as he kissed her.
Emily said with a brilliant smile, "Thank you!"
This night, the TV series had lost their appeal to her. From time to time, she would raise her hand to
touch the two fish on her corbone. As she put her hand down, she would ce her hands on her
lower belly, and she was smiling the whole time.
At ten o''clock, the time to go to bed, Simon took out a square box from the bedside table.
"I have another present for you!"
Emily was shocked. "Another one?"
"Mn." Simon''s lips curled up.
Emily blinked her eyes with curiosity and excitement. She reached out and took the box that he
handed over, guessing what it would be in her heart. Since she liked the cake and ne very
much, she was thrilled to see the third one.
After taking off the ribbons tied to the box, she opened the box with great anticipation.
When she saw the gift inside clearly, her face suddenly fell.
Emily raised her eyes, the corner of her mouth twitching a few times. "Simon... Is this the third gift?"
Under the light, the ck gauze nightgown in her hand was as thin as cicada''s wings. It was almost
transparent, except for the few cloth ropes around it.
He had once bought a simr sexy nightgown in Sagria City...
"Humph!" Simon''s thin lips curled up a little.
"I won''t wear it!" Emily ground her teeth with anger and secretly determined not to wear the gown.
Simon picked up the nightgown. "Don''t say no so fast. I''ve consulted the shop assistant and was
told that it''s specially designed for pregnant women!" There was a hint ofziness in his tone.
"..." Emily was choked with anger.
Hooligan! Hooligan!
The hooligan''s big hands had reached over and unbuttoned her clothes quickly. Then he insisted on
putting the sexy nightgown on her no matter how resistant she was to this idea.
After that, he lifted the quilt and pulled it above them from one side. Then, there were only Emily''s
light groansing from within the quilt asionally.
Whose gift was this nightgown for? While panting, she thought to herself.
When the evening lights were on, a ck Cayenne stopped at the door of a restaurant.
Simon pulled open the co- pilot''s door. As Emily came out, she looked into his pretty eyes and put
her hand into his. With her hand in Simon''s warm andrge hand, Emily was led into the restaurant.
The waiter weed them enthusiastically and led them directly to the private room upstairs.
It was a meeting of Simon''s old ssmates. Like thest time, she was brought here as his family
member.
It seemed that they were thest to arrive. When Simon opened the door of the private room, they
saw that the table was almost full. There were two seats reserved forthem on the left.
The temperature in the room was quite high, so Emily took off her coat upon entering. Simon
reached out to take it and hung it on the hanger nearby. At this time, many people turned to look at
them, which made her a little embarrassed.
Emily nced around. ording to the memory of thest meeting in her head, it should be the
same group of people here. Not long after she sat down, a figure came to her side.
With some embarrassment, Brock rubbed his hands and said, "Miss Sam, I drank too much during
thest gathering and said something that I shouldn''t have said. I hope you don''t take it to heart!"
Last time, he had left her a deep impression.
Knowing what he was referring to, she smiled and shook her head. "It doesn''t matter. I have long
forgotten!"
Because Simon wanted to keep his marriage a secret, they did not hold a wedding ceremony. Thus,
his ssmates had never seen Mrs. Chin. They saw her for the first time when they gathered to
celebrate Addy''s homing.
After all, both of them had studied abroad for many years, so he was on Addy''s side. When he was
drunk, he said many unpleasant words. Fortunately for Emily, some people stopped him. When he
sobered up and recalled what he had done, he felt deeply apologetic.
