Bonnie thought and went about her business.
No one noticed that Amad actually quietly took out his cell phone by himself and dialed Cedron’s number.
The call was answered after a few beeps, and Cedron’s raspy voice came from the other end, “Amad, what can I do for you?”
Amad snapped his fingertips, his tone held a bit of anticipation, “Uncle Navarro, I’m leaving the country tonight, I’m going abroad to have an operation, I heard my brother say that I won’t be coming back when I’m done with the operation, so can you come to the airport to see me off, I’ve got a present for you, oh!”
Cedron froze for a split second.
He was aware of the fact that Amad had left the country for surgery, but he didn’t know that it was today, let alone that Amad wouldn’t be coming back after he left.
Although he didn’t have too much contact with this little one, the thought of her disappearing from his world in the future still made Cedron’s heart vaguely uncomfortable.
After a long time, a dull hmmm, “What time is the flight, I’ll go see you off.”
“Eight o’clock at night, Uncle Navarro you must come oh, I’ll wait for you at the airport!” Amad barked very happily.
—
In the blink of an eye, it was evening.
AmadEnoch two people were pulled by Bonnie, quickly completed the air ticket formalities.
Holding the ticket, but did not rush into the security checkpoint, but looked around.
Finally, Bonnie saw someone in a chunky bear suit not far away.
“Amad look, you . Mommy is here oh and wearing your favorite bear outfit!” Bonnie said.
Amad looked over in the direction of her finger, his eyes filled with a light of surprise and he jumped right up, “Mommy Mommy, I missed you so much!”
Play. The Dollman almost stumbled when Amad bumped into him, but luckily the person behind him helped him.
“Watch out.”
The familiar voice rang out, causing Play. Dollman freeze, frozen in place, afraid to move.
“Uncle Navarro there you are!” Amad was even happier, looking at Cedron in front of him, smiling so much that the corners of his eyes curved into crescent moons, “But you seem to have lost weight, have you not eaten properly ah, how old are you, you have to learn to take good care of yourself ah.”
Obviously a five year old doll, but the words were extraordinarily sophisticated, and an adult-like.
Cedron’s indifferent face unfolded a few smiles, his tone was gentle and incomparable, “Good, I will remember, this is for you, it’s your gift.”
With that, he handed Amad a very beautifully wrapped box.
Amad reached out and took it, shaking it curiously, “What’s inside?”
“You’ll find out when you open it.” Cedron replied.
Without half a second’s hesitation, Amad opened the box straight away.
Inside was a very exquisite crown, inlaid with dozens of shiny diamonds not to mention that the main stone in the very center was a turquoise blue sapphire, which was extraordinarily bright and dazzling.
“It’s so pretty, godmother, try it on for me!” Amad loved it so much that she immediately picked it up and turned to Bonnie for help.
Bonnie reached out and took it, hefting it with a bit of consternation in her tone, “Mr. Navarro is really generous with Amad.”
“It’s just a small toy, after all, you’re going abroad, it’s always good to have a little decoration.” Cedron’s tone was full of indifference.
As far as he was concerned, it was indeed a small toy.
But Bonnie knew the value of this crown very well.
All the diamonds were real, and the center stone, a rare Kashmian sapphire, was unavailable on the market today.
No wonder Cedron said it was evening out!
