She Became Rich After Divorce

Chapter 578: Gift Giving



Chapter 578: Gift Giving

She unconsciously licked her red lips, hesitated for a moment, and decided against it... She should focus on losing weight instead. Lately, she had been feeling hungry all the time, and she couldn't figure out why.

Just then, a large hand suddenly took away the bowl in front of her. Cheyenne looked up and was surprised to see Kelvin picking out half of his own food and placing it in front of her. He then pushed the bowl back towards her.

His voice softened considerably, but he still spoke in his usual commanding tone as he ordered, "Eat."

He knew she wasn't full yet.

Cheyenne looked at the half-filled bowl in front of her, feeling a sudden daze. She had never imagined that one day he would care for her so much. With just one glance, he knew what was on her mind.

Biting her fork, Cheyenne decided to temporarily set aside her troubles and not waste the food. Kelvin wasn't actually hungry; just watching her eat was enough to satisfy him. Especially when she ate, her cheeks puffed up like a chubby and adorable little hamster.

After eating their fill, Cheyenne reclined on the sofa with her slightly bloated stomach, while Gordon resigned himself to cleaning up the mess. He had lost to Kelvin in a game of rock-paper-scissors earlier, which was why he had to wash the dishes. But it wasn't a big deal; it couldn't faze him.

Seeing the pink apron hanging by the door, Gordon reached out and put it on himself.

Uh... It was too small.

This apron was size S, but he usually wore XXL clothes. He couldn't even tie the strings properly and could only barely hang it around his body. If it were Benson wearing this apron, it would be a delightful sight, but when Gordon appeared in front of everyone wearing it, Cheyenne was thoroughly amused.

Unable to resist, she glanced at him a few more times, and her lips couldn't help but curl upward.

Kelvin, on the other hand, was glad he had won earlier; otherwise, he would be the one embarrassing himself in front of Cheyenne now. A burly man with a cold and tough image wearing such a cute pink apron would definitely be out of place.

Gordon, feeling embarrassed, retreated to the kitchen. He actually liked pink; he just hadn't had a chance to try it before.

After this small interlude, Cheyenne finally remembered the main point. She turned to the elegant man in white beside her, Benson, and asked curiously, "Benson, how come you're here?"

He had been busy preparing for an exam recently, so she thought he must be very busy. In response to her question, a gentle smile flickered in Benson's dark eyes, and he pretended to ponder mysteriously. "Can't you guess?"Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Cheyenne's eyes shimmered with a bewildered light, like the innocent and captivating Bambi in the woods.

"I really can't think of it. Did you compose another new song, Benson?"

Benson stopped teasing her and spoke softly, "That's not the only reason."

If it was just about the song, he could have easily sent her a sample through email for her to listen to.

Why go through all this trouble?

"Well..."

Benson smiled, reached out to grab his white cane, and stood up.

He walked towards the door.

"Benson, where are you going?" Cheyenne looked at him bewilderedly and stood up as well.

She saw Benson open the door and whistle outside.

Soon after, a rumbling sound came from a distance.

A black luxury car appeared through the darkness and finally stopped at her doorstep.

The car door opened.

A beautiful woman dressed in a pink dress got out of the car.

It was Kate.

And the driver... was Reece dressed as a delivery guy.

He wore a distinctive vest, a helmet of the same color, and two adorable bunny ears.

"You guys!"

Cheyenne subconsciously took a half step back, feeling that something was waiting for her.

Sure enough, confetti burst into the air and landed on her face and hair.

"Cheyenne, happy birthday!" Kate put away the fireworks and opened her arms, suddenly giving her a hug.

Caught off guard, Cheyenne sneezed and watched as the confetti slowly drifted from her nose.

Only then did she slightly regain her composure from the surprise and curved her lips.

Somewhat lost, she said, "So it's already October?"

She had grown another year older.

In fact, Cheyenne never had the desire to celebrate her birthday because she was born on the same day her mother, Selah, died.

So for many years, she had never publicly celebrated her birthday in a grand manner.

But fortunately, after getting to know them, they would give her gifts every year.

After Reece got out of the driver's seat, he went around to the back of the car and opened it, revealing a giant cake.

During the journey, to protect the cake from being damaged, even though it only took half an hour to get there, he drove for a full hour. Benson's clear voice suddenly sounded in her ear, "Cheyenne, happy birthday! Congratulations on growing another year older."

Gordon, who had just finished

washing the dishes and hadn't had

time to take off his pink apron, suddenly thought of something and immediately turned back to the kitchen.

Before long, he returned holding a rose carved from a carrot, and handed it to Cheyenne, saying with a soft smile, "Miss Lawrence, happy birthday."

"It's because of the rush that I didn't have time to prepare in advance, so please don't mind."

"Thank you."

As Cheyenne looked at the radiant faces before her, she couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation in her nose, and a warm feeling flowed through her heart.

On the other hand, Kelvin's face turned pale and gloomy.

Today was Cheyenne's birthday, and he didn't even know this basic piece of information.

He watched as Reece and Benson presented one precious gift after another to her, and even someone like Gordon, a rough man, had the talent to carve roses from carrots.

But what about him?

Suddenly, Kelvin's pocket made a sound.

After hesitating for a while, he took out the item and handed it to Cheyenne, thinking to himself, 'I will definitely give her a better gift in the future.'

For now, he would have to settle with this stone and temporarily appease Cheyenne.

"What is this?"

Kate stared at the ordinary-looking stone with wide eyes, finding it hard to believe that it was just a stone.

The renowned CEO of the Foley Group, giving someone a gift of a mere stone!

Reece couldn't help but cover his mouth and mockingly say, "Did you pick this up from the roadside as a last-minute option, Mr. Foley? If you really weren't prepared or didn' want to give a gift, you should have said so earlier."

"It's inexpensive, but it's a token of my affection believe Miss Lawrence won't mind," Gordon spoke up, being the only one to

defend Kelvin, since this stone net

brought a hint of comfort to

Gordon's heart and made him not the most embarrassed man.

Kelvin still kept his composure in such a situation.

Seeing no reaction from Cheyenne, he momentarily panicked, and a trace of disappointment appeared in his deep-set eyes.

"Cheyenne, this gift is... I'm sorry, I'll make it up to you later."

As he spoke, he prepared to take the stone back.

"Just wait a moment."
