Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 1656



"You actually did as you're told. If a trafficker tells you to follow him, are you actually going to do so?"

His tease got her stumped for a split second. She subconsciously wanted to open her eyes when he stopped her. "Don't move, and don't open your eyes."

Mashauva pursed her lips and asked warily, "Bruno, what in the world are you trying to do?"

Suspended in the air, Mashauva grew nervous as she felt a sense of weightlessness with her eyes closed. Moreover, Bruno fell silent after her question. It was a busy park, after all, so she couldn't hear his breathing.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Suddenly, she felt a warm breath brushing her face.

Shocked, she suddenly remembered what Bruno said to her.

"Do you want to know what will happen if you close your eyes when the Ferris wheel reaches its peak?"

Could it be...

She tightened her grip on her phone, nervous as her heart raced.

However, there was a sudden chill on her neck. Mashauva opened her eyes reflexively and saw Bruno's retreating hands.

He had put a necklace on her. As it was a clavicle necklace, she couldn't see what it looked like when she looked down, and she had also forgotten her phone was in her hand.

"Bruno?"

"Take a look and see if you like it?"

Only then did she remember she could see herself from her phone. She shifted her screen down to see that it was a fashionable cold-toned necklace with a moon in the middle and seven stars lined on the sides, resting perfectly on her collarbone.

The Ferris wheel slowly descended.

Bruno's voice was low and deep.

"Happy birthday, my dear Mashauva."

At that moment, it was as if countless fireworks exploded in Mashauva's mind, beautiful and glorious. The sunset tinted her face a beautiful red. Mashauva thought no matter where she went, who she was with, or how long she lived for, she would never forget this very moment.

The person she liked had given her a gift on the

Ferris wheel and even said, "Happy birthday, my dear Mashauva."

The uneasiness she had about being on Ferris wheels earlier had now vanished.

"Didn't you say I was only getting one present?" She wanted to touch the necklace but stopped her urge, biting on her lower lip as she asked.

"I've never missed giving you my blessing on your birthdays, so how can I skip this year?"

Mashauva blinked and suddenly got up, quickly placed a kiss on Bruno's forehead.

With that, the doting smile on his face froze.

After a while, his gaze darkened.

On the other hand, the young girl's ears flushed with the peck, and she sat back down, her back facing him, not daring to say another word to him. Mashauva walked out as soon as the ride was over, and they descended to the ground.

Bruno followed suit.

It was getting dark, and the colorful neon lights in the amusement park lit up. Thanks to the lights, her dress looked exceptionally breathtaking, and a lot of people gave her a second look.

Mashauva grew more self-conscious as she walked, so she went back to Bruno and tugged on his shirt.

"Bruno."

Bruno looked at her and teased, "You're done shying away?"

With rosy cheeks, she said, "Everyone's looking at me. Can we go?"

"That's because you're pretty. Isn't it a good thing?"

However, she was still rather abashed.

Bruno looked at his watch and saw that it was almost time for dinner. "Are you hungry? Let's eat."

That would mean they could leave the amusement park. Mashauva nodded immediately and said, "Okay."

During the meal, Bruno received a call from his mother. As soon as he answered it, Minerva spoke with a somewhat blaming tone.

"You brat. How could you not have

at least told us you took Mashauva away from the ceremony? That aside, why haven't you guys come back? Do you know how late it is? Mashauva may be of legal age now, but she's still young. Don't you dare do anything indecent to ber."

Minerva's words got him dumbfounded.

"You hear me?"

Bruno glanced at the girl eating in front of him and felt glad that he didn't put the call on speaker. It would've been bad if she heard the conversation.

Sensing his gaze, Mashauva looked up, her mouth oily from food. "Who's that?"

Bruno pressed his finger to his lips, hinting her not to speak, and she nodded at that.

He then pressed his hand on his phone and said in a low voice, "I'm going to take this call outside. You go ahead and eat."

"Okay."

With that, he walked out of the private room and leaned against the wall by the door before he placed the phone back against his ear.

"You brat. Mashauva's with you? Pass her the phone. I want to speak to her."

With a defeated tone, he said, "What kind of person do you take me for?"

Who did she take him for? He didn't have those intentions at all. Even if he did, it wouldn't be when their relationship was still ambiguous. "Well, regardless, I don't feel at ease. Pass the phone to Mashauva."

"Not now; she's busy eating."

Before hanging up, Bruno could hear Cassie say, "I should call my daughter too."

Bruno was about to enter the room when he heard Cassie's voice and stopped in his tracks. Sure enough, it didn't take long for him to hear a ringtone coming from inside.

"Mom."

"Mashauva, are you out with Bruno?"

"Yes, I'm having dinner with him. What's up?"

"Nothing, I just wanted to ask if you had a good time today?"

And Mashauva paused at that. Then the necklace on her neck came to mind, and she only replied after some time. "Oh, yes, I had a wonderful time."

She was her daughter, after all, so Cassie knew she was truly ecstatic despite not hearing any joy from her tone, all serious.

"That's good. One more question, are you coming home tonight?"

Confusion befell Mashauva as she said, "Of course, why wouldn't I be?"
