Charlie ended the conversation with Sara. When he put away his mobile
phone and walked back to the villa, his wife Claire was chatting with his
father-in-law and mother-in-law on the sofa.
Seeing him coming in, she hurriedly asked: “My husband, tomorrow is your
birthday. I just discussed it with my parents.”
“I will come back early tomorrow afternoon and make a big meal with my
parents at home. We are a family of four. We will celebrate your birthday at
home, okay?”

so troublesome.”
“How can you say that?” Claire said earnestly: “This is your first birthday after
moving to a new house. It must be a little grander!”
Elaine also hurriedly said: “Yes, good son-in-law, you are the pillar of our family, we are celebrating your
birthday, it must be more grandiose!”
Jacob said with some shame:
“Charlie, you and Claire have been married for four years. In these four years, your mother and I haven’t
given you a birthday celebration. I’m really ashamed!”
“Yeah!” Elaine also hurriedly said: “Because I haven’t given you a birthday party before, I just wanted to give it to
you this time.”
“I originally suggested going out to eat, so I decided directly to go to the best hotel in Aurous Hill.”
“But later I realized that it’s more meaningful to celebrate the birthday at home. I think it’s the same.”
“Birthdays are definitely the most warmth at home. So tomorrow, the three of us will give you a good birthday
banquet. I will give you a warm and unforgettable birthday!”
Charlie couldn’t help feeling a little moved when he heard this.
It’s not because of Elaine’s attitude. After all, she has always recognized
money, not the people.
What really moved him was Claire’s intentions.

Celebrating a birthday at home is definitely harder than going to a restaurant
to eat ready-made food. His wife can have this kind of heart, which proves
that she really is waiting for his birthday.
Moreover, in the past few years, when he had nothing to do and was very
unwelcome at home, she would still remember his birthday, and would always
quietly buy a cake and drag him out to find a place that she can afford. At a
lowkey restaurant, two people would eat a meal quietly.
Thinking back to this, he was grateful for Claire’s persistence over the past few
years.
