Chapter 1066

"Sorry, the number you have dialled is on hold, please call again later..."

After waiting for a while, Willy tried dialling the number again but it still couldn't get through. He walked over to the barbecue to help out.

"How is it? When will Laurie be coming over? I really miss her!"

That time, it was Alicia who asked with anticipation in her eyes. Her child was rather excited too that day, playing around happily and waving excitedly, as if sharing everyone's joy.

"She's currently busy and I can't seem to contact her. So, she might not have the time to come! Also, it might not be convenient for her to come now with her body's condition, so maybe next time!" Upon hearing his words, everyone stopped bringing the topic up.

Soon, food was ready and the men let the ladies eat first out of courtesy. Victoria and Caroline were not picky eaters. As for Alicia, she ate the vegetables without any seasoning because she still needed to breastfeed the baby. Also, as the baby was very clingy to her, so Frederick had to

feed Alicia.

Soon, the baby looked as if it was getting sleepy. Alicia then called the nanny over and had her place the baby in the pram. After the baby fell asleep, they moved the pram to a small room so that the baby could rest quietly. Alicia let the nanny take care of the baby, and then went back to join the party.

Willy remembered that he and Lauren were still in the midst of the argument, so he wasn't sure if she would be irritated again if he made her come over without telling her in advance. As he pondered upon it, Willy was paying attention to see if there was any notification on his cell phone. So, after two more missed calls, he let the matter rest.

Since everyone at the party knew each other, there was no need for loud musics or awkward polite conversations. They chatted leisurely and enjoyed the food at the party. It was a pleasant evening and it gradually ended peacefully.

After thinking things through, Willy felt relieved and completely relaxed. The next day, he went to the office. Even after a busy day full of meetings, he did not feel tired at all.

He finished his work at around three in the afternoon and headed back to the office. Then, he tried calling Lauren again, "Sorry, the number you dialled is currently unavailable, please try again later..."

It was another automated reply. Willy's heart suddenly sank. What was happening? Was she in class? Why didn't she answer any of the calls he had made? Why didn't she call him back?

While making coffee, Willy browsed Lauren's class schedule on his phone. She didn't have any classes that afternoon. Had she fallen asleep at home, or gone out? What a coincidence. He was thinking of picking her up later, to see her and give her an explanation! An idea came to Willy's mind and he knocked himself on the head. He suddenly realized then that something was lacking. He poured himself a cup of coffee and returned to his seat. He quickly turned on his computer, opened his email and went to a website that sold luxurious jewelry.

Although the ring was very simple in design, but it showcased the three diamonds which were of the finest D grade in the world. The description said that the artisanal craftsmanship used was a special process and cutting technique, making the diamond purer and more lustrous than the average diamonds. In addition, the total carats of the three diamonds was 5.21 carats, which could be translated to "I Love You". There were indeed a lot of thoughts being put
