Chapter 161 Birthday Surprise
Half an hour later, Cecilia and Calvin finally arrived at Vivian's mansion.
Even through the closed front door, they could hear voices coming from inside.
“Calm down! We're about to surprise your mom in a bit. Place the cake here, right here...
Cecilia chuckled to herself. The two little ones had fooled her, claiming they were too tired to accompany her to
the airport.
So, they've actually been busy planning a surprise birthday celebration for me!
“It seems they're in for a disappointment,” Calvin remarked.
“Why don’t we wait for a bit before going in?” Cecilia suggested, turning her big, pleading eyes on
him.
Calvin looked into her eyes. His throat tightened. “Alright,” he said.
The two of them simply stood outside the door, enjoying the cool evening breeze.
“How is Martha doing recently?”
“She’s been okay. | just need to bring all of you back as soon as possible.”
Cecilia frowned in concern. “I want to return soon as well, but Eli's illness must be treated.”
“We understand,” Calvin said, looking down at her. “Don’t worry. Everything will be okay.”

Cecilia nodded, unsure.
Just as Calvin was planning to take advantage of the quiet moment to hand over the item he had brought for
Cecilia, he heard the door behind him being pulled open.
“Ms. Kennedy, you're really clumsy! You dropped the cake!”
“It wasn’t intentional, you know! If only you hadn’t mopped the floor and made it so slippery. Now, | have no
choice but to go out and buy a new one...
When they emerged, they saw Cecilia and Calvin already waiting outside the door.
Elliot was the first to react. “Mr. Reesel
“Hello, you.” Calvin gently patted his head in greeting.
Vivian stared at the man blankly for a while before it finally clicked in her head. “Nice to meet you, Mr. Reese,”
she said. “Thank you for taking care of us when we were young.”
“Your mother is my friend. It was the right thing to do,” Calvin replied.

“Well, okay them. Let's go in and sit down,” Vivian said awkwardly.

Then, she pulled Cecilia towards her and whispered quietly, “Cecilia, I'm so sorry about what just happened...”
“I heard it all through the door.”
“The cake...” Vivian chewed her lip guiltily.
“It’s late! It’s alright if we don’t have cake now. Let's just go to bed earlier tonight.”
“Alright then.”
Once Calvin had settled down, Vivian teased Jonathan, “Jon, are you feeling sleepy?”
Jonathan thought that Vivian's little trick was too obvious, but he played along.
“Yeah, I'm so tired.”
He let out a big yawn.
“Shall
“Shall | take you to bed then?”
Vivian turned to Calvin and Cecilia. “Your room is all set up. Feel free to chat. Jon and | are heading off to bed
first.”
“Thank you.”
“You're welcome.”
After tucking in Jonathan for the night, Vivian pulled Cecilia aside.
“I've arranged a big room for you two.”
Cecilia was bewildered by her statement. “For us?”
“Yes! There's a king-sized bed inside. You can mess around as much as you want.”

“Don’t talk nonsense! We are just friends.”
“Okay, okay, if you say so. I'm going to bed now. Good night!”
Vivian hurried back to her own room.
Cecilia stared after her retreating figure helplessly. It seems I'll be sleeping on the sofa tonight!
“Calvin, you must be exhausted after the plane ride. Lettake you to your room so you can
rest.”
Calvin approached her, gazing deeply into her eyes. “Didn’t we agree that | celebrate your birthday with you
tonight?”

“Then, let's go to sleep once midnight passes?”
“Okay then.”
It was just a few minutes shy of midnight.
Calvin, too, was watching the time. He was hoping to confess his feelings for her when the clock strikes twelve.
However, before he had his chance, the urgent ring of Cecilia's cell phone cut through the silence:
“I need to take this. Cecilia said apologetically.
She pulled out her phone and the first thing he saw was Nathaniel’s nflashing mockingly at him from the «
screen.
