Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)
Chapter 1642

When she heard what Hailey said, Mashauva's thoughts drifted elsewhere.

It didn't sound like a bad idea if she was able to fall in love with someone during high school and marry him after graduating from college.

However, there was an age difference between her and Bruno. By the time she went to college, he would've already graduated!

There was no way they could be together every day, and Mashauva's face fell at the thought.

What a shame!

Meanwhile, Hailey continued hugging Mashauva, whose thoughts had also drifted far away to a beautiful future.

"Oh, just come. It's okay if you don't want to look for a potential boyfriend. You can help me out by showing up and eating the food. It'd be embarrassing if there was no one at my birthday party, isn't it?" In the end, Mashauva had no choice but to agree.

"Okay, I'll go to your party."

"Oh, I love you so much, Mashauva." Hailey gave her a squeeze and then looked at Frida, who was lying in the upper bunk. "Frida, you should come with Mashauva too; both of you. Don't miss it." Frida was still awake, but she couldn't play dead and ignore Hailey either, so she begrudgingly replied, "I may have to go to work then. If my boss agrees to give me a day off, I'll go. If not, I'm sorry." "Alright, please do talk to him about it. If you sweet-talk to him, he'll probably allow it."

"Alright, I'll try."

After that, the dormitory fell into silence.

Everyone fell asleep with their own thoughts in mind.

The next day, Mashauva planned on buying a present for Hailey. After all, it wouldn't be nice to show up at the party empty-handed. She had thought about inviting Frida to go shopping with her, but she had to work again, so she could only go alone.

However, as soon as she was out the gates, she bumped into Bruno.

She ran to him, surprised and elated.

"Bruno, why are you here again?"

Ever since they made up, the frequency of Bruno's visits had increased greatly!

"Again?" Bruno narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean 'again'? You don't want me to visit you?" "Of course not!"

Mashauva shook her head and continued, "But if you hang out with me every day, wouldn't it take up a lot of your time?"

"No, this is time well-spent. What do you want to do today?"

Although no one confessed their love, nor were they dating, what they were doing was what couples did on the daily. Bruno would accompany her to all sorts of places and take her out for a meal as if they had been dating for a long time.

"I'm going to attend a friend's birthday in two days, so I want to buy her a present."

"Birthday? Which friend?" Bruno had met Mashauva's three roommates. Apart from Frida, the other two girls looked sinister no matter how he saw it.

"The two roommates that you met previously, Hailey and Lena. By the way, both of them have a crush on you."

He knew it. Bruno recalled one of them left during that meal. He pursed his lips, then took Mashauva's hand and walked forward.

"You can buy a gift, but just give it to them. Don't go to her party."

Hearing that, Mashauva couldn't understand why Bruno would say so.

"Why, Bruno?"

Mashauva was too naive. Bruno wanted to protect her innocent heart, so he naturally didn't want to speak ill of them in front of her, simply saying, "If you attend the birthday party, who will accompany me to dinner?"

Sure enough, Mashauva showed a troubled expression at that question.

"You really don't have anyone to accompany you for dinner?"

"Yeah, if you don't come with me, I'll have no choice but to eat alone."

"But in the past, you..."

Hadn't he always eaten alone? He never complained about it before. Why would he grumble now?

"That was the past. Now's the present. How is it the same?"

Bruno flicked her forehead lightly. "Or do you intend to meet other boys during the party?"

Mashauva felt inexplicably guilty because Hailey had made that suggestion to her the night before. Bruno sounded as though he had been there during that conversation. "Why would you think so? I never considered such a thing. Okay, I won't go."

If she were to go to the party, Bruno would assume that she went there deliberately to eye other boys.

"But Bruno, I promised Hailey last night. If I don't go, will they think I'm awful for breaking my promise?"

"They won't."

Although it was important for people to keep their promises, those two were not good people. Mashauva shouldn't worry about hurting them.

But if he didn't say anything more, she would probably fixate on the dilemma.

Thus, Bruno added, "Just tell her that something suddenly came up. Apologize to her, then give her the gift. You've already shown your sincerity. If she gets mad at you because of that..." Bruno left his sentence hanging. Although Mashauva was innocent, she was not stupid. She immediately understood what he meant.

"Got it, Bruno. Let's go and get a gift first. I'll explain to her later." "Okay."

To be honest, Mashauva did not know much about Hailey. Actually, she did not know her at all. After all, they had a fallout before. Moreover, she had never thought of replaceing out Hailey's preferences.

However, when it came to buying a girl's gift, there were a few things that would be perfect across the board. Mashauva grew up using perfume, and she especially liked fruity, sweet notes. Thus, she decided to gift Hailey perfume.

When she dragged Bruno to the perfume store, the staff thought she was buying it for herself. However, Mashauva said directly, "It's for a friend. What sort of perfume is more suitable for a gift?" "Since it's a gift, you have to consider her preferences. Does she like stronger notes or lighter ones?"

Mashauva thought about it for a moment, but she had no clue. She shook her head.

"I'm not too sure."

"Since that's the case, what about something in the middle?"

That sounded quite safe. Mashauva nodded and said, "Okay, can you please wrap it up for me? Oh, I want to include a message. Do you have cards here?"

"Yes, we do. Do you want us to write it for you or do you want to write it yourself?"

Mashauva immediately replied, "I'll write it."

It was a gift, so she had to show some sincerity with a hand- written card. She could not ask someone else to do it on her behalf. Bruno watched as Mashauva wrote on the card attentively. He sighed inwardly. Was it a good or bad thing for her to be this simple?

However, it wasn't something he should force upon. She'd have to experience some things herself before she'd finally learn and grow up from
