บท 401: I Have Orders to Kill You

Adrianna was sitting along with Dmitri and his parents in their room. Cora was asking her all about her pregnancy and Pierre was fussing a lot. Suddenly he stood from his place and went to his wardrobe from where he dug out a blue velvet box. Keeping it in front of Adrianna he said, "Cora and I have bought this for you a week back. This is our first gift to you together after you have become pregnant."

Adrianna pursed her lips. That was an expensive gift and she wasn't sure whether she should accept it or not. She looked at Dmitri from the corner of her eyes. He just sat near his mother eating the apples she was peeling for him.

"Take it," he mentally communicated. "They would feel bad if you won't." 

She smiled and said, "Thank you father. I will take this one but please don't buy anymore. I have so many that Dmitri had bought and a lot in the Royal Palace."
