Chapter 2119

Christopher locked gazes with Bella yearningly, a teardrop threatening to fall from his eyes.

"For the innocent and kind boy I had once known as Chris, I will always offer him my best wishes even if he doesn't say anything." Bella kept a stoic face. "But now, I can't grant your wish. Even if I do wish you a happy birthday, it doesn't come from my heart."

Christopher chuckled, not at all angry at her remarks.

"Do you still remember the birthday gift you got me back then? I didn't take anything with me when my dad drove me out of Savrow. I only took your gift with me to Sentania. Do you still remember what you got me, Bella?"

Bella clenched her fists without a word.

"Soapbox car racing was all the craze at school. The kids at school owned one soapbox car, but I didn't. I was constantly picked on and left out because of it." Christopher murmured softly, his eyes sparkling with the joy of yesteryear. "You got me the soapbox car I always wanted for my birthday that year. It was red in color. Do you remember?"

Bella's heart sank.

The gifts she gave him were never superficial.

She went out of her way to protect the delicate boy's fragile ego.
