Chapter 383 May Your Days Be Happy

Samuel could not help but laugh.

“What’s wrong with spoiling you rotten?” Samuel wiped the soup stain from Natalie’s lips and said with a smile, “I’ve chosen you, so naturally, I want to give you the best that I have. They are all for you alone.”

Natalie gripped the plate as her heart kept beating faster.

Oh my… Samuel is truly irresistible.

Natalie felt like prey that Samuel had set his sights on. Once he locked his sights on her, it would only be a matter of time before she fell into his trap.

After that, Natalie did not say anything but finished the prawn ravioli and mushroom soup.

“Do you want to sleep a little more?” Samuel asked.

Natalie shook her head. “I’ll sleep later. I want to give you something first.”

“Huh?” Samuel was a little surprised, so he narrowed his eyes in anticipation.

“I need to give you this before midnight.” Natalie pulled out a red pouch from under her pillow. Then, she took out a black jade thumb ring and said, “Samuel, I wish you a happy birthday. May all your days be happy.”

Samuel was surprised as he looked at the thumb ring. “This…”

“Nonsense, no one sends themselves as birthday gifts.” Natalie glared at Samuel indignantly.

Perhaps someone does that. However, both of us are still recovering from the snake venom. Even if I want to gift myself to Samuel, he is not in the condition to receive me. Therefore, I’m glad that I prepared the black jade thumb ring.

“Samuel, if you don’t want it, I’m taking it back,” Natalie said.

When Natalie wanted to take back the thumb ring, Samuel pulled her into his arms and embraced her tightly from behind.

“When did I ever say that I don’t want it? Nat, I want everything you give me.” Samuel’s voice was low and coarse as he whispered into Natalie’s ear, causing it to turn red.

“Can you help me to put it on?” he asked.

“Sure.” Natalie held Samuel’s hand and put the black jade thumb ring on his thumb.

The man had beautiful hands. The black jade thumb ring gleamed nicely on his thumb and looked good on him.

“I accidentally found the jade block for this ring three years ago but did not use it until now…” Then, Natalie continued warmly, “This time, I thought that I’d make you a thumb ring. Of course, I did not cut the jade myself. However, I made a lot of effort to think up the words carved inside.”

Samuel was excited upon hearing what she said.

Thus, he took off the thumb ring and looked at the words carved on the inside of the ring.

“May our love be forever; may nothing separate us.” Samuel read it out.

Natalie looked down and fluttered her lashes shyly. Suddenly, she did not dare to look at Samuel, fearing that he would replace her message corny.

Argh! Please don’t say anything… It does seem corny.

When Natalie received this black jade thumb ring from the craftsman, she only planned to carve a few words. However, she decided on an impulse to engrave that phrase. Once the engraving was completed, she found it corny but was reluctant to grind it off the thumb ring.

After that, they fell into an awkward silence, and neither of them said anything.

It was because Natalie did not know what to say.

Then, Samuel sniffed in the smell of medicine on Natalie’s body, and rare joy appeared in his usually stern eyes. Then, he could not resist smiling.

After a long while, Samuel finally spoke.

“Natalie, you always gave me oh-so-many surprises. I love this birthday present, especially since you have personally carved a phrase in it.” Samuel kissed Natalie on her ear. “May our love be forever; may nothing separate us. I will grant this to you. I will always love you and never leave you.”

Samuel looked at Natalie without kissing her lips or touching her.

Despite that, his promises deeply touched her heart.
