Chapter 81: His Gift

•❅──────✧❅✦❅✧──────❅•

Lilia panicked and looked around. Familiar people were welcoming Lilia with a bright smile.

She was still puzzled. Today was her birthday, but she thought it would pass calmly. She was going to quietly cut the cake and wrap it up, as she had done over the years…….

Lilia turned her head and looked at Karhan. Karhan looked more surprised than she did.

The stern part of the ship floating in the middle of the lake opened and a bridge was laid out. Violet, Cliff, and Heinley got off the ship and approached Lilia. Cliff smiled at Lilia, who could only continue blinking her eyes in shock.

“We seem to have succeeded in surprising you.”

“He planned everything from start to finish.”

Violet pointed to Heinley. Violet clicked her tongue and said, “Why don’t you be more active in your daily life?” Heinley, who ignored Violet’s nagging, said with a smile,

“Happy birthday, Lilia. I hope you like it.”

Lilia was still not used to Heinley’s attitude. She was more used to the way he treated her coldly. When the family’s greetings were over, all the employees in line shouted together.

“Happy birthday from the bottom of our hearts, Miss!”

Everyone had bright faces as if they were being congratulated. With their congratulations, Lilia laughed along.

“Let’s cut the cake first.”

Heinley led Lilia. As she boarded the ship, Lilia saw a huge meal. The highlight among them was the gigantic size of the cake. The five-tiered cake was enough for everyone here to eat at once.

When Lilia cut the bottom tier of the cake a little, applause poured from all sides. After the cake cutting ceremony, Lilia was seated in a large wooden chair. Next was the gift giving ceremony.

Frances was the first to come forward.

“It’s a wooden doll that I carved myself!”

“The squirrel’s tail is so cute. Thank you, Frances.”

“My present, Lady…….”

Each of the employees gave a heartfelt gift. Those who were giving gifts looked more excited than the one receiving it. After a long time, the employees’ gift-giving was over, and Cliff stepped in. He had a piece of paper in his hand.

“Happy birthday, Lilia. I’ll give you the store on 71st Street.”

It was purchase documents for a shop selling stationery. Lilia hugged Cliff lightly. When she finished saying thank you, it was Violet’s turn.

“My present is a northern villa. It snows all year round, so go when you want to see it.”

Violet kissed Lilia on the cheek after handing her a picture of the villa scene. She stepped back, and Heinley stepped forward.

“You said you wanted a room filled with sand before, didn’t you? So I prepared some golden sand.”

It was sand that was airlifted from the Kingdom of the South. The kingdom wanted to save it because of its scarcity, so they banned importing it. It seemed that he negotiated with the Southern Kingdom to buy sand.

“Go to the 4th floor of the west building later.”

“I really like it. Thank you, brother.”

It was a precious gift that could not be easily obtained no matter how much money you had. It must have been troublesome, but she appreciated their heart for her.

As soon as the gift presentation was over, Karhan, who was watching from behind, hesitated. Apparently, huge gifts were poured out in front of him like it was normal, and he felt relatively humble. After receiving everyone’s attention, Karhan stood in front of Lilia.

“Happy birthday, Lilia.”

“Did you prepare something, too? I didn’t say it on purpose because I thought it would be burdensome…….”

Lilia blinked in surprise. Karhan held out a small box that he had been fiddling with for a long time.

“I don’t know if you’ll like it.”

“Thank you, Karhan. I’ll open it later.”

She was curious, but there were many eyes, so she was going to open it a little later. In particular, Violet and Heinley seemed interested. The music that had been resounding for a long time became calm. Now it was meal time.

The food was served on the deck, and everyone freely moved to and from the ship. In order not to get entangled in the movement, the counties, knights, and servants were divided into sections. Instead, everyone had to pack their own food so that all employees could enjoy the party.

“Lilia, you sit down. We’ll bring it to you.”

As Lilia approached, Heinley shook his head and said. As a result Lilia went back to her seat. And Karhan held only one plate and was in trouble. There was so much food that he hesitated on what to pick first. Then Violet interrupted.

“Grilled lamb is delicious. If you want to train tomorrow, you have to eat well.”

“……The cabbage salad is fresh today.”

Heinley, who was serving food next to him, added quietly. When Violet and Heinley clung to Karhan’s side and treated him kindly, Cliff, who saw them, paused.

“No……since when did you two get along with the Lord?”

Didn’t you hate him? Am I the only one who didn’t know? 

Cliff was puzzled and slipped in among them.

“Hmm, carrot cake is fine for dessert.”

Thanks to this, Karhan put all the recommended food without hesitation. Karhan, who filled the plate, looked around. Tession was eating with Frances and Malek.

“I was expecting a lot, but it was more than I expected! I can’t even hold a foot in any of my birthday banquets.” (Tession)

“Of course, it’s the Bloden way. A few years ago, it was more colorful than this.” (Frances)

Frances shrugged at Tession’s praise. Watching closely, Karhan tried to join him. Then, Violet grabbed Karhan quickly.

“Lord, where are you going? Let’s eat together.”

Karhan couldn’t refuse and eventually followed Violet’s steps.

“I’ve brought a lot.”

Lilia, who was sitting down, welcomed them. Finally, Cliff and Heinley sat down, and the table became crowded.

Karhan was a little nervous when he was eating among the Blodens. He remembered the first time he came to the Bloden mansion. Before eating, Karhan thanked everyone,

“Thank you for inviting me to the party today.”

Among those invited to the birthday party, only Karhan and Tession were outsiders. The fact that they had invited him on purpose, he was very much grateful for it. It may be a cheeky thought, but…… He was glad to be part of the Bloden family.

When he was invited before, he envied Lilia’s family, which looked harmonious and warm but now he was just happy to belong here rather than envy. Cliff, who saw Karhan’s face softer than usual, jokingly said,

“Thank you for coming. By the way, you look a little more excited than usual.”

“Oh, itt’s the first time I’ve been to someone else’s birthday party…….”

When Karhan, who became a little embarrassed, mentioned that, everyone paused. Violet, Cliff, and Heinley looked at Karhan with strange eyes. Lilia immediately opened her mouth, who knew Karhan’s family situation.

“Eat a lot, Karhan!”

Lilia passed the plate in front of her to him. Heinley, who saw it, left to bring some more food.

The full-fledged meal has begun. Perhaps because the house chefs showed their full strength, their tongues became enchanted with every bite. Karhan, who was emptying the plate neatly, ate some food and his eyes got a little bigger. He whispered with a flushed face,

“I didn’t know there was such delicious food in the world.”

At that, Lilia’s family began to serve the most delicious food they had ever eaten. Whenever his silent face became alive, the people of the Bloden family smiled contentedly. Maybe because he ate well, the person watching him became proud.

After a long meal, all kinds of events followed. After seeing the famous circus troupe, they also watched dancers from foreign countries. At this point, it was like a festival.

In the afternoon, the Blodens gathered and drank alcohol. Since everyone was busy on a weekly basis, the drinking party did not end quickly. When the sun went down and the sky got dark. Everyone went back to the mansion to prepare for tomorrow.  The noisy birthday party was over.

While everyone was cleaning up, Karhan stopped by the annex and brought an item. Then he returned to the shore of the lake and called Lilia, who was about to enter the mansion.

“If you don’t mind, would you like to take a walk?”

Lilia also nodded because she wanted to get some fresh air to sober up. The two walked slowly toward the patronage. The garden planted with magnolias at the entrance was full of seasonal flowers.

A road embroidered in purple was seen in the distance. Wisteria trees with abundant petals were connected like a tunnel. The two walked side by side without saying a word. Karhan walked slowly to match Lilia’s pace.

“……I had a lot of fun today.”

Lilia’s face was still redolent. She looked hazy as if she had just woken up from a good dream.

“It was a natural scene just a few years ago, but I had forgotten it until now.”

It was a long time since everyone had such a noisy birthday. For the past few years, she was on bad terms with Heinley, so she used to spend her time with Richard on her birthday. And she finished roughly by cutting the cake prepared by her parents in the evening.

“Oh, can I open the gift now?”

Lilia asked Karhan. The box he gave her was palm-sized, so she brought it with her on purpose. Karhan nodded, and Lilia opened the box.

Between the soft velvet lay a necklace studded with amethyst. Perhaps because the whole area was dyed with a bluish light, the amethyst twinkled as if it was submerged inside clear blue water. Lilia, who immediately tried to wear the necklace, smiled broadly.

“I really like it. I’ll wear it every day.”

Lilia gave up trying to wear the necklace right now. The structure was a little complicated, so she thought she needed help. As she tried to put it back in the box, Karhan quietly called Lilia,

“Um……. Lilia.”

Lilia stopped what she was doing and looked up. Karhan lowered his eyes shyly and then slowly raised them. His blue eyes, which were covered by his eyelashes, were as dim as the moon hidden in the clouds. Karhan, whose eyes reflected Lilia, asked.

“Can I do it for you?”
