Chapter 930
There were not many photos of Sylvie alone because most of them captured Sylvie with other Atherton family members together. Those photos included one in which she and Catelyn warmly stared at each other with a smile on both faces, one in which she and Edwin played chess together, and one in which she and Harry took a stroll in the garden...
Hundreds of photos were arranged clearly and orderly by Catelyn and projected on the big screen.
Sylvie was deeply moved, and tears filled her eyes.
The narration of the video was the voice of Catelyn. "Grandma, you are the most respected elder in my heart. It is my greatest honor to be your granddaughter. I believe that no matter what you did, you did it for my good. Now it's time for me, Ceddy, and the children to spend time with you. On your first birthday after our reunion, I thought about giving you very precious gifts like my cousin, but those gifts were dead, and I always felt that something was missing. Then, one day, I finally realized what had been missing. It was a kind of love for you, so I chose to make you a video of your memories..."
After the long dubbing by Catelyn, as the end of it drew to a close, Cedrick starred again, alone, in the video.
He was always taciturn in front of outsiders, but in the video, he sincerely wished Sylvie a happy birthday.
His low, sexy voice spread throughout the main hall, and many people were moved by it.
Yet that was not the end of Catelyn's surprise.
The night sky outside the window suddenly burst into brilliant fireworks, rising to the highest point in the sky and exploding with a bang.
"Look, there are words on it..."
"Grandma, happy birthday. We love you."
The guests shouted out in unison, and they were all stunned.
What a heart-warming and attentive surprise!
Sylvie also excitedly moved to the window sill with the help of Kelly. Looking at the bright fireworks in the sky, she could not be more moved.
The two little guys, Miles and Ollie, were still holding the tray high in their hands. After holding it for so long, their arms were sore.
Sylvie could not move her eyes away from the fantastic fireworks for a long time. No one had given her such a 'romantic' surprise for many years.
"Great-grandma, my hands are sore..." said Miles while trying to keep a smile on his little chubby face.
Sylvie suddenly realized that she had forgotten about the cake and hurriedly took the tray from the two little guys.
Ollie handed the cake cutter and server spade to Sylvie and said, "Blow out the candles to make a wish, and then cut the cake."
"Alright, sweetheart." Sylvie laughed so hard that tears fell from her eyes. She then put her hands together and stood in front of the cake, making wishes like a child. "May the family be safe and happy, May Cat and Eddy live happily ever after with their loved ones, and may I have another lovely little great-grandson in the coming year."
Miles cheered and clapped his little hands. "Great-grandma, you are so greedy! You even made three wishes!"
"I heard that saying your wishes out while wishing would make your wishes not come true..." Ollie was a little concerned.
