Chapter 0276

From a distance, I saw someone running toward me. Pete pushed open the car door before dashing over. Holding up the cake in my hand, I shouted, "Happy birthday!"

He grinned like an excited child. He looked half asleep just moments ago. but he instantly became energetic when he saw me. Her kly ran up to me and gave me a big hug.

"I had a late business dinner last night and could barely wake up this moming. I thought I was dreaming!"

"You wish. How could you possibly be dreaming about me?"

For some reason, I felt bad for him after hearing his words. Being a rich boy, he probably had never worked so hard for anything in his life before.

In the past, he only drank when he wanted to. He would never force himself to drink for business till the point he could barely wake up.

"I'm glad it's not a dream, or I'd have been devastated when I woke up." He had a silly grin on his face, showing his white teeth. "I even forgot it was my birthday."

As he finished speaking, he teared up a little. He always had family and friends with him on his birthday for the past few years. This was the first year he was alone, so I wondered if he felt lonely.

He took the cake from my hands and felt quite embarrassed. "You didn't need to buy this. I'm all grown up now. You being here is the best birthday gift.

"Oh, you don't like it? I'll throw it away then." I pretended to grab it back, but Pete immediately clutched the cake tightly.
