บท 429: Chapter 429

"A gift?!" Mackie's eyes glimmered with both hope and excitement. She never had a gift prepared for her before. 

Of course, she always got an occasional gift from Mommy and sometimes, Daddy. However, Daddy never put it as a surprise.

Daddy would usually bring her to a toy store and then allow her to pick one thing before they returned home. That only happened a handful of times in Mackie's seven years of age.

Daddy was always busy, and Mommy always told her not to disturb Daddy because he was working.

"What gift, Uncle? Tell me!" Mackie demanded.

"That won't be a surprise if I tell you now," Vernon smiled. He got from the chair and helped Chloe to get up before looking at Mackie, "Let's go, we're going to get your gift."

"Yayy!" 

Mackie jumped from the chair and followed Uncle and Mommy to leave the restaurant. They were stopped by Carlos on their way out, and Carlos bowed his head respectfully at Chloe, "Enjoying your meal, Miss?"
