Chapter 271 What You Want
As soon as the words left Silvia’s mouth, Charles realized that she was teasing him. But his mouth was faster than his brain, and it was too late to take it back
Charles glared at Silvia unhappily, but still took off the backpack on his shoulder, and said, “This is for you!”
He handed the entire bag to her. Silvia was stunned and asked, “What is it?”
“What you want!” he said.
Silvia took it over. It was so heavy that she almost dropped it with one hand. She hurriedly picked it up with the other hand. She weighed it and looked at him again, asking, “Can you open it?”
“I said it’s for you. It’s up to you whether you want to open it or not!” Charles looked a little awkward.
Silvia smiled. She opened the zipper a little and looked inside. She found that it was a large piece of wood. It was stuffed into two layers of bags and bulging. No wonder it was so heavy.
There was also a faint fragrance coming out. It was very elegant and special, but it was what she wanted.
Silvia was surprised and happy. She asked, “Didn’t you say there were no more?”
“Yes, there is no more.” Charles let go of his hands and casually put them in his trouser pocket. He raised his chin slightly and did not look at the backpack. It was as if he would change his mind to take it back if he looked at it more. He said, “This is all that is left.”
The thing was so heavy. Silvia held it in her arms and liked it very much. “This is the only thing left. Are you willing to give it to me? Are you keeping it yourself to carve something?”
“Anyway, it’s useless.” Charles looked down, and he looked a little disappointed. It was an indescribable feeling:
“Why is it useless? I can see it is preserved quite well. Are you sure you don’t want it anymore?” Silvia probed her head and asked.
Charles was a little upset and asked, “Hey, why are you talking so much nonsense? If you want it, you can have it. If you don’t want it, I will take it!”
As he spoke, Charles reached out to take the bag, and Silvia quickly turned to the side, saying, “I want it. When did I say I didn’t want it? How can you take away something that is given to someone? I won’t be polite with you, thank
.
you!”
After Silvia’s words, Charles’ outstretched hand hung in the air for two seconds. He withdrew it resentfully, feeling a little disappointed.
“Hey, are you serious? You are the eldest young master of the Petersen family. It is easy for you to get anything. Why would you try to snatch this from me?” Although wood was very rare, since he could get these, it should not be too difficult to get more.
“There is no more.” He shook his head and sighed, “There won’t be any more in the future.”
Charles was lost in thoughts.
“In the future, I will not do wooden sculpture again.” Charles raised his hands and stared at it in a daze.
Silvia glanced at his hands. On the palms of his hands, there were calluses that could be seen with the naked eye. For someone like him who often held a carving knife and often dealt with carving, not only did his hands have calluses, but there were also large and small wounds.
However, she could tell that he still loved this profession very much. That day, she met him by chance at a wooden carving shop by the roadside. Looking at his focused appearance, she knew that he did it because he really kíked it.
But he said that he would not touch the wooden sculpture again.
“Why?” she felt that he had something difficult to say, but it was his privacy after all, so she just asked casually.
As expected, Charles did not answer her and only said, “I heard that you were about to get married. Just take it as my wedding gift.”
“Wedding gift?” Silvia wrinkled her nose and said, “Isn’t that a little too petty?”
As the eldest young master of the Petersen family, which had such a large amount of wealth, he only gives me such a small bag of wood? At the very least, they should bring a cart of skin! Silvia thought.
“Do you want it or not? I’ll take it back if you don’t!” Charles reached out his hand again, and Silvia took two steps back and said, “Don’t even think about it!.”
Charles was in a daze.
It was obvious that he was reluctant to give it to her. He wanted to take it back, but he was too proud to say it.
“This is a personal gift from me, and it has nothing to do with the Petersen family,” Charles suddenly explained!
Silvia felt that his mood was not quite right, but it was not good to ask. She could only say, “Thank you, I like it very much.”
With the corners of his lips curled up, Charles smiled happily and turned to leave. However, he turned around after taking two steps and asked, “Are you really going to marry someone from the Palmer family?”
Silvia looked at him in confusion.
“Nothing.” He shook his head, his face was full of hesitation. Then he said, “Bye.”
Looking at his back, Silvia was very confused. She felt that he was acting a little strange, but she couldn’t tell what exactly was strange about him.
No matter what, she liked this gift very much. It was exactly what she wanted.
Seeing such a big bag, Simon was shocked when he saw it and asked, “What is it?”
“Good stuff!” Silvia smiled and walked into the room with the bag in her arms. Simon quickly went forward to help her take it and also felt the weight. He said, “It’s quite heavy.”
“Of course it’s heavy. It’s made of wood!” As Silvia spoke, she placed the backpack firmly and opened the zipper, revealing the wood inside.
“Wood?” Ever since Silvia set up a studio in the house, she kept taking back strange things.
Compared to the others, the wood was quite ordinary, but it was so big.
“Someone else gave it to me.” Probably guessing what he was surprised about, Silvia explained, “It was the one you met at the Austin Family last time, the eldest young master of the Petersen family, Charles Petersen.”
“1 see.” Simon still had some impression of the youth in the snow.
“He promised me before, but I haven’t heard from him after that i thought I wouldn’t be able to see him again. I didn’t expect this world to be so small that I could meet him in my own backyard. Surprisingly, he remembered that he still owed me something. He sent it to me today.”
Silvia was particularly happy. After all, she had wanted this for a long time. A fresh fragrance source could a ways trigger new and better inspirations.
She already felt that her creative inspiration was about to burst out.
“So, what time are you going to sleep tonight?” Simon knew what she was going to do when he saw the light in her eyes and her agitated expression.
He had been with her for a period of time, and he knew very well that her interest in these strange spices and raw materials was much greater than the interest she had in people.
“It won’t be very late. It depends on the results of the experiment. You go to sleep first. Don’t worry about me. I won’t be very late.”
Simon silently rolled his eyes. Why would he believe her?
Every time she said that it would not be very late, she wished she could stay up all night. If he did not get up and go to the studio to force her back to the bedroom, she might really not sleep.
People always said that Simon was a workaholic. When he worked, he would forget about his life. However, compared to Silvia, he was nothing.
“I don’t care what time it is. Anyway, when I am ready to sleep, you must sleep.” Simon gave Silvia a time limit so that she wouldn’t care about herself.
“Alright then, I’ll head to the studio now. I can’t waste any more time!” Silvia said helplessly.
Seeing how happy and hurried she was, Simon shook his head helplessly. If she continued to work like this, he did not know how long it would take before the wedding came.
