Chapter 355 More Gifts and Surprises
Under the yellowish candlelight, the figures of both people became illusory and beautiful.
After the meal, Tessa looked at Nicholas with a smile and asked, “Where are we going next?”
“Come with me.”
He led her where they thereafter started to climb the stairs.
The sea breeze blew and caused Tessa’s black hair to blow in the air, and her white skirt fluttered in the wind to reveal her slender, beautiful long legs.
A few minutes later, the two were standing on the top deck. Tessa looked around, but unexpectedly discovered that there was no one else here except for them.
As if he saw through her doubts, Nicholas placed his arms around her slender waist and lowered his head slightly before he approached her small and exquisite ears. “This place is off limits.”
Off limits? She blinked her eyes and said in surprise, “Don’t tell me that you reserved this place too?”
“You guessed it right,” he responded with a smile.
She was stunned again. “You are too extravagant.”
“Well, I did say that the first birthday we’re spending together is very memorable.” Nicholas didn’t think it was a waste at all. On the contrary, he was elated. “Follow me.”
He pulled Tessa inside, and there was another staircase leading up.
After going up, she was stunned by the scenery in front of her.
The top floor had also been clearly decorated with care where there was a white light and a fence wrapped with colorful small lights.
At the very center of the top floor was a large bouquet of champagne roses with its faint floral fragrance permeating its surroundings.
Nicholas walked over and held the bouquet before standing in front of Tessa again.
Tessa only thought that there was a bouquet in front of her, but she saw Nicholas taking out an exquisitely crafted necklace with a unique shape from the bouquet of roses, as if he was doing magic.
She could also read the words engraved on the necklace through the light. After she did so, she covered her lips as her heart exploded.
“I’ll put it on for you.”
While speaking, Nicholas shoved the bouquet of champagne roses into Tessa’s arms and walked behind her.
Tessa looked down at the necklace on her chest, only to realize that the words engraved on it seemed to be the date that they became a couple.
At this moment, she was very moved.
Very few men remembered things such as anniversaries.
“Nicholas, how can you be so good to me?”
“Because you deserve the best.” Nicholas looked back at Tessa, his dark eyes filled with endless tenderness. “I’ll show you one more thing.”
He pulled her to the place where the champagne roses were placed earlier.
It was only then that she discovered that there was also a big gift box, which she thought was touching yet rather comical. Haven’t I already received enough gifts?
Nicholas didn’t know Tessa’s thoughts.
He helped her to place the bouquet of champagne roses aside before taking the big gift box. “Open it up and take a look.”
Tessa glanced at him and stretched out with her hand to untie the ribbon on the box.
The moment the gift box was opened, she froze in place.
It was an exceptionally delicate violin. She recognized this violin almost at first glance. It was the famous ‘Thena’ worth 45 million dollars and also the one handcrafted by the famous Italian violinist Tradivari.
“This is too expensive for me to accept.” Tessa came back to her senses and immediately closed the gift box.
“There is nothing you can’t accept.” Nicholas insisted on gifting the violin to her.
She was afraid of breaking it, so she had to gingerly pick up the gift box when his low and pleasant voice sounded again in her ears.
“I had searched high and low for this violin. I hope it can signify the meaning of our being together, and at the same time, I want to use it to celebrate the meaning of your new career journey. Of course, I hope it can also accompany you to perform on the best stages in the world in the future!”
After Tessa listened to Nicholas’ words, she was so moved to tears that she almost cried.
She sniffed and blinked hard, trying to hold back her tears, but it was a pity that her attempts did not work.
Then, she pretended to be fierce and shouted, “Why are you so sensational? Don’t you know that I can’t cry on my birthday?”
