“What gift would Leo give to me?” Lauren thought.
Lauren guessed maybe it was a doll or Lego. That was also what Leo liked. What’s more, the box was
wrapped in pink color, so Lauren believed it might be a small toy. However, after opening the box, she
was surprised.
It was actually a piece of white jade in the shape of a cat’s claw, which was delicate and pure. It was
really a lovely gift. Rubbing and pinching the jade with her fingertips. Lauren felt like she was touching
the real cat’s claw.
She also found that there was a bead with a name on it. It was KITTY. When Lauren saw this name,
she was super surprised. “How could it be so coincidental?” Lauren thought because she had a cat
called Kitty when she was seven or eight years.
Leo was a sensitive and careful child and since Lauren opened the gift box, he had been looking at her
nervously. When he saw Lauren frowning and not speaking for a long time, he started thinking that
maybe Lauren didn’t like his gift.
Leo was a little sad and his hands were clenched. He was on the verge of breaking out.

“This gift is not good. I will ive a better one to you next time.”
“It is great and I like it,” Lauren hugged Leo and said. “This is the best gift.”
Leo lowered his head and insisted, “No, this gift is not good.”
In fact, Leo promised his father that he would not tell Lauren this gift was picked by Charlie.
Lauren didn’t want Leo to cry so she repeatedly said that she liked this gift very much and would carry
it wherever she went. nally, Leo smiled.
Because of crying, Leo’s eye turned red and swollen so Lauren took him to the upstairs room to wash
his face and change his
othes. Daphne hurried over and wanted to take Leo to wash his face. But Leo held Lauren tightly.
Lauren smiled at Daphne and said, “I’ll help wash his face.”
Daphne said, “Thank you for that, Miss Bennett.”
When they reached Leo’s room, Lauren helped Leo take off his coat and then led him to the bathroom
to wash his face and hands
