Chapter 341 Happy Birthday

The second Nina saw the cake, she couldn’t wait another moment.

She scrambled to climb down from the bed in a hurry. Mommy, cat cake!”

She was desperate, practically vibrating with excitement Amelia quickly wrapped her arms around Nina’s wriggling body to keep her from charging straight at the table.

Benjamin set the cake down carefully in the center, then lifted Nelson and settled him into the chair right in front of it.

William, Daniel, and Chloe had all arrived by now, too.

Everyone gathered around the small table. They stuck four candles into the cake.

Nelson even got a birthday hat placed on his head.

It stayed there for about ten seconds before Nina started reaching for it.

Amelia tried to stop her, but Nelson quietly took the hat off and handed it straight to Nina.

He hadn’t been comfortable wearing it anyway. If Nina wanted it so badly, he was happy to give it up.

Amelia could only shake her head at her daughter.

Nina usually hated hats. On her own birthday, she’d refused to wear one no matter how much anyone begged.

But the moment she saw someone else wearing one? She had to have it too.

Nina just couldn’t stand seeing another child have something she didn’t have.

“Mommy, look hat!”

Nina touched the birthday hat proudly, tilting her head so Amelia could admire it.

Amelia gave a small huff and gently scolded her, “Nina, hat’s not very nice. Today is Nelson’s birthday, not

yours.

“You can’t keep doing this.

“Nelson gave you the hat, so you need to say thank you

Nina nodded right away. For once, she looked properly obedient.

She turned to Nelson, flashed him a big, sweet smile, and said in her softest voice, “Nelson, tank you!”

With the hat securely on her head, Nina immediately turned her attention back to the cake.

She reached out her chubby little hand, but Amelia gently pinned it down.

Amelia kept one hand on Nina while speaking softly to Nelson, “Nelson, come on-make a birthday wish.

“Birthday wishes are the most powerful ones.

“Close your eyes, make your wish, and blow out the candles. Then it can come true.”

Nelson knew perfectly well that birthday wishes didn’t really work like that.

He thought they were just stories adults told to trick kids.

Even if he made one, it wouldn’t come true.

But when he looked up and saw all the kind, encouraging faces from the Graham family watching him, he pressed his lips together, closed his eyes, and decided to try anyway.

Daniel grinned and leaned in. “Nelson, you have to say the wish out loud! That way, the wish fairy hears it and makes it come true.

She wasn’t satisfied yet.

She lifted the little paper plate and began licking every last bit of frosting off it.

When the plate was completely clean, she tilted her round face up and asked hopefully, “One more?”

Amelia shook her head. “No, sweetie. It’s all gone.”

With the cake finished, Nelson thought the birthday was over. But then Amelia pulled out a small wrapped gift as if by magic.

“Nelson, gift to you.

“I know you don’t need anything, but gifts aren’t just about needing something.

“They’re about the thought behind them.

“I got you a little necklace. Nina has one just like it.

“It’s a four-leaf clover. I hope it keeps you safe and sound always.”

Amelia gently fastened the delicate necklace around Nelson’s neck.

Benjamin stepped forward next and placed his gift in front of Nelson.

It was a limited-edition LEGO set-worth over half a million dollars.

Chloe brought out her gift, too—a very rare and precious collection of specimens.
