Chapter 33

What kind of gift would a child give?

Olivia’s speculation leaned towards a doll at most, followed by Lego. After all, a four–and–a–half–year–old boy wouldn’t yet understand the recipient’s perspective when choosing a gift. Usually, the gifts they gave were things they liked rather than considering the recipient’s preferences. Also, given the small pink box, Olivia thought it might contain a small

toy.

However, when she opened it, she was truly surprised.

Inside was a delicate gold pendant crafted in the shape of a small cat’s paw. The surface was smooth and polished, shimmering in the light. The cat’s paw shape was chubby and cute, exuding a lifelike charm that seemed almost real.

Running her fingertips over it, it felt as though she was touching a natural

paw.

She pinched the pendant and turned it over, discovering that there were even letters engraved on it.

The word was “Luna“.

Seeing the cat’s paw pendant, Olivia didn’t have a particularly strong reaction. But when she saw the name “Luna,” her entire world seemed to freeze.

unwrapping the gift, he had been anxiously watching her. His beautiful phoenix eyes were fixated and unblinking.

Seeing Olivia’s slight frown, he could slightly contain himself.

But when she held the pendant for a prolonged period without speaking, he couldn’t control his emotions any longer.

Was she displeased? Andrew’s lips quivered, his chubby hands clenched tightly, and a storm of emotions brewed within him.
