Hearing that it had fallen out of her coat pocket, Serena knew it was something of Cristian's. After taking it from Beatrice, she put it back in the pocket.
Beatrice could not help but frown and say with a smile, "Aren't you curious to know what it is? Don't you want to open it and see what's there?"
Hearing that speech, Serena stopped, and looked up to look at Beatrice.
Open it and look?
"I think the box is very small and pretty, even though it's hers, I think she bought it as a gift, maybe. It's for you, why don't you open it?"
"This-isn't this wrong?" Serena tightened her lips in embarrassment. After all, she was about to open something of Cristian's without his consent, and besides... Cristian never bought her gifts.
Maybe...he bought it for someone else.
Beatrice took the box directly, "If you don't open it, I'll open it. I'm curious to know what Cristian bought."
Hearing this, Serena opened the small box. She would not be able to stop it.
After she opened the box, she saw a pair of small pink diamond earrings. The pink light made them both wince at the same time. Beatrice exclaimed with surprise, "As it was meant to be, I said she bought it for you."
Staring at the small, round earrings, Serena's breathing stopped for a moment.
These earrings...
They were the pair Anna had chosen for her when they went shopping last time. At the time... She tried them on, but the price of the earrings was very high. Serena ended up not buying them. Cristian wanted to buy them for her at that time, but she refused.
And then she left.
Anyway, when had she bought them? Why didn't he give them to her right away?
She thought back to his deep, sharp eyebrows and the fact that Cristian hardly ever smiles. When he doesn't speak, he gives people a sense of estrangement. When he does speak, he is always fierce. She could not imagine him buying these earrings and putting them in his coat pocket.
"Looking at your expression, does it look like something is wrong? What's the matter?" Beatrice asked curiously when she saw her staring at the pink earrings.
Hearing her voice, Serena came back to herself and shook her head, "Nothing."
She looked away still feeling a strange sensation, why had Cristian bought her those earrings? Obviously-he didn't hate himself.
"Your complexion is very fair, these earrings look very good on you." Beatrice put the box in her hand and smiled, "I've never seen Cristian buy anything for a girl."
"I think it's a misunderstanding. Maybe he didn't buy it for me." The box was placed in Serena's hand. Serena immediately felt like she was holding something heavy. She held it in her hand and then quickly put it back into the box.
Beatrice suddenly had the impression that Serena had suddenly realized something, but because she was shy, she said nothing.
After Beatrice finished cooking, the two ate a very simple dish together. Beatrice was very good at it. Serena ate a bowl of rice. Seeing that Serena had a big appetite, Beatrice said, "You should eat more. You are too skinny. It's bad for your baby."
