"I guessed," Avery answered. Otherwise, she couldn't understand why Evan treated her very well.

"Yes, she saved me. When she tried to save me, her father tried to stop her because he was afraid that it was dangerous to his daughter. Unfortunately, on the way to find Diana, her father had an accident and died. And on the blink of her father's death, I promised to take care of her."

"All right," Avery understood and asked peacefully, "So, how to take care of her?"

"As soon as she gets better, I should take her back to her home."

Avery then kept silent. Although she wanted to ask why Diana had gone into the neurological hospital, she held the question.

Avery looked down at the gift box and finally opened it because she was curious about the gift.

As soon as Avery opened the box, she was astonished. It was a black watch that was the very same watch that she was going to give Evan as a birthday gift.

Avery knew Evan loved to collect watches and this watch was the latest one in this season, so she bought it. But now Avery was astonished. What a coincidence!

Avery became sullen and embarrassed. She had tried her best to make Evan happy and show her love to him, but she had never expected that Diana did better than her and prepared the same birthday gift.

Avery's finger turned to be a little pale. The surprise, the cake, and the gift made her embarrassed.

She had never expected that Diana did all she wanted to do.

"What's wrong?" Evan asked. He was glad to find Avery envied because it means that she cared about him. So he closed the watch box and threw it away.

"Don't you like the watch?"

Evan gave a glance over the box and answered, "I don't like it."

"Evan doesn't like the watch?" Avery asked herself.

"I heard from a maid that you had been busy doing something in the kitchen?"

When Evan finished his meeting, he sent someone to check what Avery was doing. A maid told him that Avery was in the kitchen, so Evan didn't interrupt her. He knew Avery was preparing something for him. Evan was looking forward to it.

Thinking of the beautiful cake that Diana made, Avery shook her head and denied it, "I was hungry, so I made some food for myself."

"Haven't you prepared the gift for me?" Evan had no patience and asked directly.

"I…" Avery bit her teeth. She didn't know how to answer.

She wouldn't like to give the same gift to Evan. Moreover, Evan had said he didn't like the watch.

However, Avery didn't want to let Evan upset, so she whispered, "I did prepare the gift for you…"

Hearing the answer, Evan was happy again. Prenatal anxiety made him anxious. He needed her love very much.

As soon as they came back to the presidential palace, Evan immediately asked for the gift. He wanted to prove that Avery loved him.

"Why are you so eager? I put the gift in the bedroom. You can go to the room 20 minutes later," Avery asked Evan to sit down, and then she went back to the bedroom.

Avery hurriedly opened the closet, wore a sexy red nightdress, and tied a bow on her head. Then she went into a big gift box that she asked the maid to prepare.

Twenty minutes later, Evan opened the door. Since the light turned off, he could see a big gift box through the hall light.

Evan frowned slightly, guessing, "Is she the gift?"

All of a sudden, Evan turned on the light and saw a big white box with a white bow. He held the bow and opened the box without hesitation.

Avery then slowly stood up from the box. With the red ribbon tied on her head and sexy red nightdress, Avery looked sexier.

"Sir, it is your gift. Please take it," Avery tilted her head, observing Evan's expression, but she couldn't tell whether he liked the gift or not.

Avery then opened her arms and waited for being embraced, but Evan stood still.

"Is it the gift that you prepared for me?"

"Don't you like it?"

"You are not sincere."

Avery couldn't understand. She had given herself to him, but he was not satisfied.

Evan touched Avery's back and said, "You hadn't even cut off the label of the dress. You should admit that you forget my birthday. It is ok."

Evan had exerted himself to tug off the label of the nightdress. Then he took off his coat and put it on her, "Have you forgotten that the doctor had said it would be better not to make love three months before the birth?"

Evan said in a disappointed tone as if he was an unhappy kid because he didn't receive his birthday gift.

It seemed that Evan became more worried.

Avery bit her lips, saying, "So… Might I cook a bowl of noodles for you? It represents longevity."

Evan nodded reluctantly.

The Kitchen

Avery washed an onion. When she prepared to put it on the cutting board and cut it down, she glanced over the trash in which a cake was placed and was thinking about whether to make a better cake.

Suddenly, she heard noises. Therefore, Avery got out of the kitchen and met Robert, asking, "What's going on?"

Robert looked weird. He hesitated for a while and then said, "Mr. Howel doesn't believe that Mrs. Howel had not prepared a gift for him, so he ferreted around in the bedroom."

"Ferreted around? Would he find the watch that I was going to give him as a birthday gift?" Avery thought to herself.

Avery hurriedly went into the bathroom to wash her hands and then quickly walked upstairs.

The door of the bedroom opened. Clothes and accessories were here and there. Looking at Evan at a distance, Avery found that he held a black box.

Evan realized that Avery was here, so he raised his hands with a black box, asking, "What's this? You cheated me that you didn't prepare the gift for me."

"You just said you didn't like the watch," Avery said hesitantly.
