S31 99. Gifts for Ava

They approached Ava one by one, giving her congratulations and prayers-starting from the twins, Kara, Vivian. None of them were seen bringing gifts. However, jealousy still raged in Eva’s heart.

“Happy birthday, Ava. Wish you all the best.” Jeremy was the last person to greet Ava. His gesture was stiff, his smile awkward. Still, Ava appreciated it.

“Thank you…, Mr. Jeremy.” Her lips curved shyly.

After Jeremy stepped back, Eva stepped forward. She hugged her sister, wearing a cheerful expression.

“Even though I already said it earlier, I don’t think there’s any harm in repeating it. Happy birthday, Sister You are very lucky to know this family. Without them, you definitely wouldn’t be celebrating your birthday.”

Ava blinked with no expression. Her sister’s words no longer had any effect on her. “Thank you, Eva.”

“You’re very welcome.” Eva kept her smile until she returned to h seat. “So, what’s next? Cut the cake?”

The twins shook their heads with pursed lips. “Before that, we want t give Ava a gift.”

Eva raised an eyebrow. In her heart, she wondered what the toddlers could have prepared. When the twins took out a folded piece of paper from their pocket, she almost burst out laughing.

“Do you guys give her your best drawing?”

The Twins nodded proudly.

“Yes, this is our best drawing.”

Louis spread the paper and held it up to his chest. Emily imitated him.

With a tickle in her heart, Eva studied the picture. Each paper was

“Ava, what do you think about this picture?” Louis shifted his feet little by little, approaching Ava.
