Chapter 2348
At the dinner table.
Everyone at the table was seated in a circle. The atmosphere was lively, and there was a cake in the middle of the table.
We sang happy birthday. The candles stuck on the cake lit the room dimly.
Madam Klein blew hard happily, and the candlelight disappeared. The room became bright again.
"Happy birthday!"
"Thank you all."
Madam Klein smiled brightly, her eyes narrowing into crescents when suddenly, someone boomed.
"What did you wish for?"
Madam Klein pursed her lips tightly and smiled in a mysterious way that attracted everyone's attention.
"My wish?
"I hope my son and his girlfriend will tie the knot as soon as possible and then give birth to a bunch of chubby kids so that I don't have to be too idle."
When I heard everyone cheering, I felt an ominous premonition in my heart. I did not expect this to happen.
Marius could only smile a little embarrassedly. His expression was stiff as he lowered his head to avoid the burning gazes on him.
"Haha..."
Marius smiled brightly. He tried his best to suppress the smile before nodding at everyone, flattering them.
"Oh, it seems the wish will come true soon! Isn't that right, Marius?"
"That's right! That's right! Don't let your mother down, kid!"
"Yes, fulfill your mother's wish!"
I wished I could hide in a hole in the ground when I heard these words at this moment.
Everyone else looked at me and praised me even more. "Oh, Wanda, don't be so shy! Isn't this normal?"
"Yes, yes. Come, tell me where you work!"
I was getting more and more agitated by the people at the party, my expression turning ugly. Suddenly, Marius stood in front of me and dealt with them with ease.
Madam Klein noticed this, and there was a smile in her eyes.

After all the gossip and dinner, everyone's attention shifted elsewhere. I left the room to rest. I leaned against the sofa and closed my eyes lightly.
"What's wrong? Are you tired from dealing with too many people?"
A voice interrupted my thoughts. I opened my eyes and glanced at the person before answering mechanically.
"I'm fine."
"Thank you so much, Sis Wan. I'll take you home so you can rest early!"
I nodded, really too tired to say too much.
At the door.
"Oh, Wanda, are you going to go back now?"
Just when we arrived at the door, two figures walked over and asked with concern with smiles on their faces.
Marius reacted quickly and wrapped his broad hands around mine to feign intimacy.
My body stiffened slightly. I immediately relaxed and put on a gentle smile.
"Yes, Mom. Wanda is tired. I'm going to send her back!" Marius looked at me with doting eyes.
"Marius, wait a minute. I have something to ask Wanda." Madam Klein kindly took my wrist and led me upstairs after I said that.
In the study, Madam Klein took out the bracelet from the drawer and put it around my wrist.
"Aunt, I... This is not appropriate!"
I looked at the bracelet around my wrist. I did not expect her hands to be so swift. She had taken out the bracelet and put it on my wrist within a second since my wrist was relatively small.
"It's nothing."
"I still can't accept it, Aunt."NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
I wanted to decline her, but Madam Klein's expression suddenly changed. Her expression was
solemn, and her brows was nex
furrowed.
"What's wrong? Are you so determined that you and my Marius won't stay lovers?"
I quickly explained, "No, Aunt. I just think this is too precious."
