Chapter 3219
Elaine also knew that saying too much about Jacob would also destroy the
atmosphere, so she didn‟t talk anymore, but took the red wine from
Charlie‟s hand and took the initiative to open it with a wine cork.
A family of four filled the wine, Claire took out the cake, and said to
Charlie: “Husband, you first blow the candles and make a wish, and then
let‟s eat!”
Charlie smiled and nodded. This is the standard procedure for birthdays. It
is like this at noon and it is still like this at night.
This is basically the same as gatherings of classmates and colleagues. No
matter which city, the process of gathering is generally to eat first and
then KTV.
Therefore, when Claire took out the cake from the refrigerator and lit the
candles, Charlie prepared to make a wish and blew the candles.
Claire on the side also sang a happy birthday song for him. Her voice was
not loud, but she was very gentle. With big eyes, she was singing out:
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you… …”
Charlie acquiesced to his wishes in Claire‟s singing and blew out the
candles. Afterwards, Claire said: “My husband, close your eyes, I have
a gift for you!” Charlie nodded and closed his eyes gently.
Claire took out a gift box from behind, held it in both hands, put it in
Charlie‟s hand, and said with a smile: “Okay, open your eyes!”
Charlie looked down, and what was in his hand turned out to be a watch
box.
A simple line of letters was written on the box, Charlie recognized at a glance, it turned out to be Patek Philippe.
He looked at Claire in surprise, and said: “Wife, why did you buy me such an expensive gift?”
Claire replied with shame: “It‟s not expensive, open it and see if you like it!”
Charlie nodded and opened the package, inside which was lying quietly a Patek Philippe Nautilus watch.
At this time, Claire said softly from the side: “This Nautilus, in Patek Philippe, is considered an entry-level style.”
“After I completed the Emgrand Group‟s projects and settled all the upstream and downstream payments, I will
buy for you a better piece!”
Charlie hurriedly said: “My good wife, a Nautilus now has a price increase of at least half a million, right?”
“The price of the current watch is too outrageous, so don‟t buy me such an expensive watch in the future. A
good mechanical watch is as accurate as the time on the phone.”
Claire smiled and said, “How can it be the same? Men wear watches not to see the time. It is mainly a kind of
temperament. Nowadays, men who are more careful have several watches, attending different occasions and
matching different clothes.”
“I also have to choose a different watch. I don‟t want my husband to be pricked when going out in the future,
especially since your customers are rich people who always see that you don‟t even wear a watch.”
“You definitely think that my wife is reluctant to buy it for you!”
When Charlie heard this, he couldn‟t help feeling a little moved. He smiled and said, “Thank you, wife! My wife is
the most considerate.”
Elaine, who was on the side, heard the tongue stunned and exclaimed: “Good Lord, just such a watch, it costs
more than half a million, is its appearance that good?!”
Claire said earnestly: “Mom, this is a classic model. Not only is it expensive in China, but it‟s the same all over the
world.”
Elaine touched her heart and said, “This is a BMW car worn on the
wrist!” Claire smiled and said, “If you say so, there is still a luxury
villa on your wrist.”
Charlie said seriously: “My wife. You just bought a watch, so don‟t buy it
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmagain in the future.”
Claire smiled and said, “Whether to buy or not in the future depends on
my mood and whether I can make money. Anyway, your opinion doesn‟t
count.”
Charlie smiled and nodded: “Well, I will listen to you.”
Claire said with satisfaction: “This is pretty much the
same!”
After finishing speaking, she quickly took out the watch and said to
Charlie: “I will help you wear it. From now on, you will try to wear it every
day. Just don‟t wear it for a few days and leave it.”
Charlie smiled and said, “My wife gave it to me, of course, I have to wear it
every day!”
Claire nodded, and while looking at the watch on his wrist, she
exclaimed: “It looks good! It is low-key and connotative.”
“It looks much better than the big gold watch that the elite like! Husband,
don‟t take it off. You will wear it when we go to the concert later!”
