A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

With a gentle smile on his face, Darren stared at Bonnie like it was the first time he had seen her in years.

On the other hand, Bonnie was pleasantly surprised. She hadn't expected that he would remember her birthday.

After a few minutes, Darren started to carefully place a few candles on the cake. Because of this, Bonnie looked down and noticed that her name was written in blue in the middle of the cake and that there were two small figures made of chocolate standing beside it.

At that moment, Bonnie was so moved that she needed to cover her face because she was about to cry.

She thought about whether she was a lucky person or not. After all, no other girl would be able to celebrate her birthday in prison, except her.

“Well, what are you waiting for? Make a wish now,“ Darren uttered while fixing a few more things on the cake. When he was done, he looked back into her eyes. Instantly, he knew exactly what was going through her mind.

The candles were arranged in the shape of a heart, and inside of it were the two chocolate models. Even if Bonnie was in prison, her eyes lit up like fireworks from joy.

“Make a wish now,“ Darren said again with a warm smile while staring straight at her eyes.

“Um... Okay,“ Bonnie replied with a sweet smile while meeting his gaze. Then, she placed her hands together, closed her eyes, and made a wish.

At the same time, Darren couldn't help but make a wish that Bonnie could get out of prison as soon as possible, especially since she was an innocent woman who was just taking his place there.

When he was done, he opened his eyes and saw that the girl in front of him was still busy making her own wish. Suddenly, he noticed a gruesome wound on her arm.

“What happened to your arm? Did someone here do that to you?“ he worriedly asked while pointing at Bonnie's injury. His gentle, soothing voice quickly disappeared and was replaced by a tone of concern.
