Chapter 319 Missed Call
Tilda didn’t let thoughts about Amanda or Santiago ruin her mood. Tonight was her Christmas Eve with her beloved seniors! “Joy” and “happiness” were the themes tonight!
Just then, someone pointed at the sky, surprised. “Look!” Everyone looked up.
Countless drones rose into the dark night. The moonlight shone through like glass. Then, a set of special fireworks exploded in the sky: drone fireworks! And they were custom-made!
Against the dark sky, they slowly formed two names: DK and Myst!
They hung in the night for a long time. The colorful fireworks left ripples across the sky. The two names shone like stars, forming stars in midsummer. They wanted the sky to shout and history to remember their names, and everyone who saw those names would have them burned into their memory.
“Could Myst be that super-genius artist?” “What about DK? Myst’s brother?” “If my name were in the sky like that, so bright, so beautiful… I’d feel like the brightest star in the world!” “Who launched these fireworks? I just tried counting… There must be at least 10,000 drones!” “Isn’t the company sponsoring this year’s Rocky Mountains race a big fireworks firm? Their shows are always amazing–it must be their latest design!” “Wow… So this is basically an ad, right?”
People whispered and guessed. But only Dane and the others really understood.
The spectacular fireworks were Tilda’s Christmas gift for them. They were moved beyond words.
Dane and Mystro stared at the bright, beautiful fireworks as if they’d never fade. They etched the scene into their hearts, minds, and souls. They would never forget this moment: the excitement, surprise, thrill, and even a sudden urge to cry. It was a completely different experience because the giver was different. Tilda was truly unique in the world!
Even Manfred and River, standing aside, felt touched by Tilda’s careful planning. If they had someone like Tilda–so thoughtful, clever, capable, and making such surprises–they’d probably feel like the luckiest people in the world. Once spoiled like this, it’s impossible not to feel amazed!
“I’m giving you a magnificent fireworks show. From now on, through thick and thin, I’ll be by your side, and we’ll get through everything together,” Tilda said, her eyes twinkling. Her words were sincere. From now on, in joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness, Tilda wanted to be with her seniors, her most important “family.”
Seeing Dane and Mystro so moved, Tilda knew she had chosen the perfect gift.
“I suddenly feel… It wouldn’t be so bad to fall for my junior, right?” Mystro’s sudden comment made Manfred and the others laugh so hard that they nearly choked.
Tilda was speechless. “Mystro, what are you talking about?” “I can’t help it. You’re so thoughtful. It’s so touching! Boohoo…” “Same here,” Dane wrote.
This time, Mystro and Dane were united. If only they could openly go after Tilda. Such an amazing girl–even the coldest, toughest men would be moved. For the first time, being a senior felt like such a pain!
Tilda didn’t know what to do with these two. What do you do when family suddenly wants to be more than family?
Meanwhile, Santiago saw the fireworks too. “Myst, DK…” Who could it be? It didn’t match any initials of the Jensons. Even Santiago couldn’t figure out the meaning behind the fireworks Tilda had arranged.
Not family… Then who else? Could anyone be more important than her own family? What happened between Tilda and the Jensons to make her cut all ties? After all, the Jensons spent so much time and effort to bring her back.
As Santiago’s thoughts spun in worry, his phone rang. It wasn’t Russell but Wade. Santiago pressed the answer button. “Hey, Wade. What’s up?”
“The family Christmas party just ended. Dad hasn’t been this happy in ages. He drank a bit too much, so Howard helped him to his room. I saw your missed call on his phone. I thought you might be trying to reach Dad, so I called you. Weren’t you at the Rocky Mountains’ Christmas race today? Did you get a good result and wanted to tell Dad?”
