This cake does not look as luxurious and exquisite as the five- layer cake
made by Sara, and it does not have lifelike shock- absorbing fondant dolls.
It is just a normal cake. However, the line of words written with chocolate
sauce on the cake makes a warm current surged in his heart.
The content of that line is: “Happy birthday to my dear Mr. Wade.”
The signature is: “Love your wife, Claire.”
Seeing these words, Charlie smiled knowingly, and said to the
rider: “The cake is okay, I will just sign for it.”
After that, he signed the bill and handed it back to the rider.
The rider took the order and left, and Charlie packed the cake again and

This scene happened to be seen by Mrs. Willson who was drying her clothes on the terrace of the villa
opposite.
Seeing that Charlie took a cake and walked back to the villa,
she couldn’t help but returned to the room curiously, and
asked Noah and Harold lying on the bed: “Noah, Harold, do you know what day is today?”
Noah smiled bitterly: “Mom, I have been eating, drinking, and sleeping on the bed from before the new year until
now. I don’t know what day is the solar calendar, the lunar calendar, and the day of the week.”
Harold echoed: “Grandma, I don’t remember the day either.” The old lady Willson muttered: “Today is the
second day of the second lunar month, and the dragon raised its head, but I can’t remember who celebrates
the birthday today.”
“The unfilial son Jacob seemed to be born in winter, and the dead girl Claire seemed to be in summer…”
Harold remembered something, and said: “February Dragon looked up…Today seems to be Charlie’s ba5tard’s
birthday!”
Old lady Willson frowned and asked, “Are you sure?” “Yes!” Harold nodded again and again:
“Once I went to the barbershop to cut my hair just after the first month of the year, I just saw Charlie and Claire
having a meal in the small restaurant next to the barbershop, and there was another one on the table.”
“I observed the little cake. It was Charlie’s candle, so it must be Claire who celebrates Charlie’s birthday.”
“Grandma, you don’t know, the cake was shabby at the time, and it was not as big as a damn dish.”
When the old lady Willson heard this, she seemed to be in a good mood, and said with a smile: “Oh, it turns out
that today is the birthday of Charlie the white-eyed wolf! I didn’t expect it to be so soon!”
Harold asked puzzledly: “Grandma, what’s the matter? Why do you say that?”
Old Mrs. Willson curled her lips and said, “Before the New Year, many people
lined up at the door of Charlie’s house to give him gifts.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“You see, this is just the first month, and no one congratulated him on his
birthday. Those who are rich and powerful don’t take him seriously anymore!”
Harold asked subconsciously, “Grandma, can you tell that Charlie is not in
a good situation from this?”
Mrs. Willson said solemnly: “Harold, there is an idiom. As long as you see a leaf
falling, it means that autumn is here, and autumn is here, can winter be far
behind?”
Then, she said with an unpredictable analysis: “Think about it, if Charlie is
really good now, then his door must be surrounded by rich people now.”
“There is an idiom. When a person is popular, the doorstep is more lively than
the vegetable market!”
“But you see, for Charlie’s birthday today, for those who want to curry favor
with him, such a big event is much more important than the New Year.”
“Up to now, they haven’t seen a person come to their house!”
“With this signal alone, I can make a clear judgment. Charlie must be messed
up right now, or maybe it’s almost done!
