Irresistible Boss Succumbing to Your Touch (Maria Anita) novel Chapter 436

S3-Chapter 34

Manuela’s POV

I opened the small box and I was right - my father never skimped on my presents. It was a gold bracelet with rubies and diamonds. The gold work formed hearts studded with diamonds, and between each heart were heart-shaped rubies set in gold. It was beautiful, luxurious yet delicate. My father's card moved me - he wrote about how much he loved me, how proud he was of me, and that whatever path I chose to follow, he would always support me.

"Your father has an incredible gift and amazing taste, Manu. This piece is wonderful. Does he take orders?" I laughed at Rick's question.

"No, he only designs jewelry for me. Cam tells me he used to do this for his mother, who was my father's first wife - he would design jewelry and have it made to give her on special occasions. He never did this for my mother. But he does it for me, every year. This is the nineteenth piece in my collection."

"Wow! What an incredible gift. I'd love to see the others sometime."

"Come over to my place and I'll show you."

"Manu, that little treasure of yours should be in a bank vault," Rick warned me, and he was right.

"I've thought about that, but I'm not sure how it works."

"Just talk to Magellan. I'm sure Flavian would escort your jewelry to the bank."

"I'll do that. I couldn't bear to lose these pieces."

Following Rick's suggestion, I called the manager and we arranged for me to bring the jewelry on Monday - he would have everything ready for me. I was happy about this; my little treasure would be kept safe. But today, I would wear this bracelet.

Throughout the afternoon, I received calls from my father, my older brother, and Olivia. Every year, they were the only ones who remembered my birthday. Of course, my grandparents, my father's parents, used to remember too, but they weren't here anymore. But this year, I had a group of friends who cared about me and a handsome boyfriend, who had made my day special.

"Beautiful little one!" Flavian hugged me when I left the building. "How was your day?"

"It was great! Look at all the presents I got!" There really were many - I needed a security guard's help to carry everything to the car.

"You deserve much more!" Flavian opened the trunk and helped the security guard store everything.

"What about this small box and the flowers - aren't you putting them here?" He asked, seeing that I was holding onto the flowers he had sent me and the box my father had given me.

"No, these are special ones, I'm taking them with me." Flavian laughed, opened the door, picked me up, and placed me in the passenger seat.

"You're the special one, little one." He kissed me and walked around the car to sit beside me.
