Virginity in second marriages by Angela novel Chapter 1652

She unconsciously spoke to stop him.

Manuel, didn't you say the blue one was Pacino's?"

Manuel waved his hands a little before saying, "Yes."

But despite the positive answer, he did not stop unpacking the purple gift. Angelica bit her lower lip and looked at him. A few seconds later, she looked at him again.

Manuel said, without fear, "Have you already opened it and changed it in half? First this one and then Pacino's."

Angelica did not answer, but blinked a little. A strange thought occurred to her: she thought Manuel was jealous. Is it because he asked to open that gift first, and only after his own? But if he was really jealous, maybe he would not have asked who to open the box first.

Angelica shook her head.

"- Why don't you want to open my present first? Manuel whispered, peering into her eyes.

At those words, Angelica unconsciously shook her head.

"No, all right? Anyone can be opened first.

At first glance, it might seem that she didn't care, but she actually wanted to open Manuel's gift at the end, because surprises must be saved at the end. She never imagined that Manuel would want to unpack his first one.

Soon after, Manuel had opened his present.

"Ah, it's beautiful!"

Angelica reached out her hand carefully and picked it up. "Did you mount it?"

Manuel's gift to her was an antique garden shed; she remembered that the little girl had often repurposed such items in her circle of friends before, complaining that the little houses assembled by others were so beautiful, but most of them were sold online to do-it-yourselfers, and she liked looking at them but did not want to buy them.

So Manuel did some research in advance and bought it back.

"Yes." he nodded his head gently, looking at her. Now convinced that she really liked him, he rejoiced.

"How long did it take you to collect it?

"Not much, just a few nights."

A few nights ......

Angelica immediately turned her head to look at Manuel and fixed her eyes on his face to see if he had dark circles under his eyes. Wouldn't Manuel have guessed what she was doing?

- Not just these few nights. Do you think I left everything for the last moment? Manuel said with a smile.

It seemed the right thing to say. Knowing Manuel's character, he never made such decisions at the last moment, and if he did, it was with his intelligence and abilities, he could cope with any difficulty.

"Happy adulthood." Manuel stroked the back of her neck, "Do you like it?"

"I love it! Of course I love it!" Unable to let go of her hands, Angelica wanted to take a look at everything as soon as possible.

But they were standing in the street, and she was afraid of accidentally dropping it, devaluing Manuel's efforts. She just whispered, Manuel, could you put it back in the box or take it to the back seat I don't want it to break.

"If it breaks, I will pick up another one for you," Manuel replied.

"Absolutely not." Angelica immediately shook her head, "It's a coming-of-age gift, it can't be broken."

"Not even if I put another one together for you?"

"It's not the same, it means something different."
