Chapter 659
Seeing that his wife was in deep thought, he narrowed his eyes and asked with a faint smile, “What are you thinking about?”
It was then that Catherine came to her senses.
She tucked the stray hair behind her ear and answered with a hint of melancholy, “I was just thinking how amazing it would be if Charis were here with us.”
Even now that they had an adopted daughter, she still thought of her biological daughter from time to time.
As a matter of fact, Catherine did not think she would ever forget about her.
Luke put his hand on top of Catherine and caressed it.
“If she knows how happy we are now, she’ll also be happy.Our relationship has gotten better.This was what she had always wanted to see.But the past is past.What’s important right now is to live our lives in the present.”
All of a sudden, the lights in the restaurant went off.
“What happened?” Catherine shrank into Luke’s arms like a frightened bird.
Luke put his arm around her shoulder and comforted her.
“It’s okay.Look.”
A romantic classical music played, and the string lights in the restaurant flickered on, creating the illusion of a river of stars in the distance.
Several waiters then walked over to them with a cake and a bouquet of red roses.
“Congratulations, Mr.and Mrs.Turner, on your 30th anniversary.”
In the eyes of many, a marriage that could last for thirty years was one of a kind.
Catherine covered her face with both hands, her eyes a little red and brimming with tears.She was not young anymore, yet romance still found its way to her.
Luke put his hand on her shoulder and reminded her, “Blow the candles now.The wax is going to drip on the cake.”
“I want to take a picture first.”
Catherine took photos of them before blowing out the candles.
With that, the waiter turned the lights on again.
However, just as the lights went back on, a woman seemingly in her 40s, wearing a fur coat, pushed the doors of the restaurant open and walked straight to Catherine and Luke.
