Sweet May-December Marriage novel Chapter 134

Chapter 134 Refuse to See Them

"Do you know the news this morning?" Eloise asked excitedly.

"Yes." Cecilia raised her eyebrows. "I have seen Becca once or twice. She is good-looking, but she takes herself too seriously, just like Rachel. She looks gentle, but I never expected her to be so dissolute."

"Many people say she was set up by someone," Eloise said, playing with her cell phone.

Cecilia sneered, "Obviously she was set up, but she is too stupid. I don't have a good impression of her, so I don't sympathize with her at all."

"Becca will have a hard time in this circle in the future." Eloise rested her chin and said, "With such a thing, her parents may send her to a foreign country to lay low. After a few years, when the thing dies down, they will get her back and get her married to someone. Anyway, she is ruined."

"Maybe." Cecilia suddenly remembered something and turned to look at Charlotte. "Forget it. Charlotte, this Sunday is my birthday and I'll have a party. You must come."

Charlotte was stunned for a moment, and her eyes widened. "Your birthday?"

Cecilia nodded.

Charlotte said, "Okay, I will go with Eloise."

Cecilia made an ok gesture and then said to Nicholas, "Nicholas, you come too."

"Ok." Nicholas directly agreed. "What birthday gift do you want?"

Eloise laughed, "Nicholas, you are so straightforward. Girls receive birthday presents for the feeling of surprise! If we had known what the gift was, we wouldn't have been surprised."

Nicholas stopped spinning the pen in his hand and said, "I see."

Charlotte was thinking about what to give Cecilia, but after thinking for a long time, she felt that a rich lady like Cecilia probably didn't lack anything. When Eloise knew Charlotte's mind, she said, "You don't have to be worried. Her father spoils her and she has whatever she wants. Even if you give her an expensive sports car, she's probably not gonna be happy. So, showing your sincerity is the most important."

Eloise lay down on the table and touched Charlotte's head. She continued, "Actually, there is a convention in our circle. The more ordinary the relationship, the more expensive the gift is. On the contrary, a gift from a good friend just needs to show his or her sincerity, so you don't have to care too much about the price of the gift."

Charlotte chuckled, "I can't afford her a sports car. After all, I don't have any income yet."

Eloise raised her eyebrows. "Char, your outfit is worth millions of dollars. How could you possibly have no money?"

Charlotte was speechless.

She coughed and changed the subject. "Well, what are you going to give Cecilia?"

"A necklace." Eloise gestured and then continued, "I asked my mother to buy it. It has a sapphire with a platinum deer head inlaid. It's very beautiful."

Charlotte said, "Didn't you say to show one's sincerity?"

She thought, "You're giving her money!"

...

After school, Charlotte was still thinking about what gift to give. She didn't read a word of the medical book and didn't even notice Nelson come back.

Seeing Charlotte sitting there blankly, Nelson put his hand on the table from behind, leaned over her ear, and asked, "What are you thinking?"

Charlotte smelled a little mint. She was befuddled and then blurted, "Have you taken a shower outside?"

She remembered that the smells of the shower gels at home were orange and milk, not mint.

After asking, Charlotte was stunned for a moment and then found that she was just like a wife discovering that her husband was cheating. She quickly wanted to explain, but Nelson had already laughed in her ear, "Yes, you have an acute sense of smell."

Nelson smelled of blood when dealing with things, and he was afraid of scaring Charlotte, so he took a special shower before coming back. However, he didn't expect Charlotte to have such a keen sense of smell and find he took a shower only by the smell of the shower gel.

Charlotte blushed for a moment and said hesitatingly, "I... I was just asking casually..."
