"You?"
Keira's voice came out a little screechy, uncontrollably. Then she realized there were other people in the room, and she toned it down, "you... are giving me an engagement gift?"
Chloe was waving a clear crystal glass bottle in front of her.
Hearing Keira's voice, she chuckled and said, "Are you surprised?"
Hearing Chloe's obviously cheerful tone, Keira said, "Indeed..."
"Don't worry, I'll definitely give you guys a surprise."
A wave of unease rose in Keira's heart, "You..."
There was a brief moment of the sound of static, then the line went dead.
Keira stared at the hung-up phone, feeling very uneasy.
"What's wrong?" Carolina asked, her voice deep.
Keira gripped her phone, shaking her head in disappointment, "My sister won't be coming today."
Carolina snorted, "It's better if she doesn't come. If she does, she'll definitely stir up trouble."
Chloe hung up the phone and left the lab, then picked up her bag and left.
"Why are you leaving so early today?"
An old lady in plain clothes asked from the side.
"Today is the last day."
"So we won't be able to see so many beautiful flowers anymore?"
Chloe turned to look at the small country cottage behind her, pondered for a moment, and then smiled,
"I'll come back later."
"That's good!" The old lady smiled contentedly, then looked at the trunk of Chloe's car, "There's still so much?"
