Chapter 1693
Nicole immediately turned around after hearing a familiar voice. Then, she saw Samuel's face.
"Samuel?!" Nicole had no idea what was going on.
Then, she saw everyone else coming out of the dark. Gloria was pushing a cart with a cake on it while her family, as well as Jared surrounded her.
Then, in unison, they all said to her, "Happy Birthday, Nicole."
Nicole paused and released Samuel's hand.
"What..."
Samuel could not help but roast Nicole after seeing her reaction. "Yeah. It’s your birthday today, and we wanted to give you a surprise..."
Samuel did not expect that Nicole would attempt to break his wrist.
Nicole immediately looked at Samuel apologetically." Samuel, I'm so sorry..."
She only did that to him because it was so dark, and because he had abruptly tapped on her shoulder.
Gloria had already pushed the cart out in front of Nicole by then.
Gloria looked at Nicole with her gentle gaze, and under the illumination of the candles, she said, "Nicole, you've been away from home for so many years, and Mrs. Wallace Sr. said that you didn't even know your exact birthday. I've been waiting for this day to come. I can finally celebrate your birthday with you. I really want to say this to you in person. Happy Birthday, my dear daughter."
Nicole's heart melted upon hearing Gloria's warm words.
She did not expect her parents to remember her birthday at all. She had returned to them for so long, but none of them had ever asked her about her birthday. However, it was something that they had never forgotten.
Mrs. Wallace Sr., who was standing at the side, wiped her tears away.
She looked at Nicole with much emotion and tenderly, she said, "Silly girl, go ahead and blow the candles. What are you waiting for?"
Mrs. Wallace Sr. was not very rich, and she could never provide Nicole with a proper birthday celebration back in her home. However, Nicole was very sensible, and she would never talk about it. Fortunately, Nicole could finally return to her family and spend her birthday with them...
Nicole wanted to step forward, but she actually felt hesitant to blow the candle off as she looked at the shimmering flames.
