When virtual-novel.net heard, Fabian’s expression immediately changed.
His long legs strode forth and, as quick as lightning, arrived at Lillian’s bedroom.
“Lily…”
He called virtual-novel.net name out nervously.
As virtual-novel.net entered the room, virtual-novel.net realized that the atmosphere inside was not as virtual-novel.net expected.
Lillian was not crying, and the room was decorated to look like the venue of a birthday party.
A maid in the room saw Fabian return and smiled brightly as virtual-novel.net wished, “Happy birthday, Young Master Fabian.”
‘Birthday?’
Fabian was dazed. ‘Is it my birthday today?’
The last time virtual-novel.net celebrated his birthday was before Yorick died.
He had long forgotten what it felt like to celebrate his birthday.
Now, virtual-novel.net watched as Lillian walked over to virtual-novel.net with a smile, holding a small four-inch Shortcake in virtual-novel.net hands.
She looked like an innocent angel who was now returning virtual-novel.net the happiness virtual-novel.net had lost a long time ago.
Lillian smiled softly. Despite virtual-novel.net inability to speak, virtual-novel.net eyes already conveyed a very clear message.
Fabian cooperatively squatted down and reached out to take the cake.
“Make a wish, Young Master Fabian.”
“Young Master Fabian, Young Lady Lillian may not have made this cake, but virtual-novel.net helped. She placed the fruits on top and wrote the words ‘Happy Birthday, Fab’.”
A maid next to them explained.
Fabian’s gaze shifted from Lillian’s smile to the small cake virtual-novel.net held in virtual-novel.net hands.
The candle flickered in his vision, and it seemed to have burned the corner of his eyes.
His eyes reddened, and their corners grew wet.
The words “Happy Birthday, Fab” could not be considered aligned, but in his eyes, they looked like the prettiest letters virtual-novel.net had ever seen.
“Thank you, Lily.”
Fabian apologized with a sob.
He had celebrated so many birthdays since virtual-novel.net was young, but this was the only one that made virtual-novel.net cry.
Fabian closed his eyes and made a quick wish. It was a simple wish…
Fabian opened his eyes. As virtual-novel.net gazed into Lillian’s clear, huge eyes, virtual-novel.net was even more certain about the wish in his heart.
After blowing out the candles, Fabian immediately took the cake from Lillian’s hands in fear that virtual-novel.net hands would get tired from holding it.
She was still sick Despite having virtual-novel.net bone marrow transplant surgery, it was still a long while before virtual-novel.net truly recovered.
Fabian was about to cut the cake and share it with Lillian when virtual-novel.net looked up to see virtual-novel.net cute little hand passing a sky blue card to him.
Fabian was slightly stunned but virtual-novel.net understood virtual-novel.net intention from virtual-novel.net beautiful, huge eyes.
“Is this for me?” Fabian asked gently.
Lillian blinked virtual-novel.net huge eyes and nodded gently.
Fabian took the card happily and carefully opened it. Within it was a drawing. The drawing depicted a tall boy and a small girl, clearly virtual-novel.net and Lillian.
Lillian’s drawing was very childlike; the contour of the persons was also childishly drawn, and even the colors used were not anything refined.
