Chapter 6983
Charlie agreed, took her hand, and left the venue with her.
The hotel was not far from the venue,
And they walked back through the heavy snow.
It was almost eleven oβclock when they reached their room.
Claire approached the hotel staff and had them deliver the cake she had ordered to her room. She said to Charlie,
βItβs good that I can still come back to your room to celebrate your birthday.β
Charlie smiled faintly and returned to the room with her.
The staff quickly delivered the cake,
Along with two bottles of fine red wine.
The cake Claire had ordered was a pristine white heart shape,
Devoid of any fancy decorations or particularly cheesy greetings.
It simply had one sentence:
βLove of My Life.β
Charlie knew that this line must have been Claireβs request to the cake shop,
And at that moment, he was deeply moved.
Although their marriage was arranged,
After all these years of hardships, it seemed that they finally had true feelings.
Charlie deliberately asked her:
βWife, what does this line of words mean?β
Claire looked at him and asked shyly:
βDo you really not understand, or are you pretending not to understand?β
Charlie smiled and said, βI understand.β
βBut I still want to hear you say it.β
Claire smiled and said deliberately:
βThis line of words is the name of a song.β
After that, she turned on her mobile phone and searched for music on the music software.
Then soft music sounded, and the melodious voice came from the speaker of the mobile phone.
βLove of my life, youβve hurt me.
Youβve broken my heart, and now you leave me.
Love of my life, canβt you see?
Love of my life, donβt you understand?
Bring it back, bring it back.
Donβt take it away from me, because you donβt know.
What it means to meβ¦β
βYou will remember this is blown over.
And everythingβs all by the way.
When I grow older,
I will be there at your side to remind you.
How I still love youβ¦β
The lyrics of this song are calm and poignant, perfectly fitting Claireβs heart at the moment,
And are also what she most wants to say to Charlie.
Although Charlie understands every word of the song,
He has never considered t
Besides that, his thoughts were a little hazy,
Because he remembered that his mother often listened to this song when he was little,
But he was too young at that time and didnβt remember it clearly.
So, he asked with some surprise:
βWife, what is the name of this song?β
βIt sounds very familiar!β
Claire pointed to the line of letters on the cake and said:
βThis is the name of the song.β
Charlie asked again: βWho sang it?β
Claire said, βA British band called Queen.β
βQueenβ¦β Charlie suddenly realized:
βI know, itβs the band that sang βWe Will Rock You?β
βYes.β Claire nodded and asked him:
βHave you heard this song before?β
βYes,β Charlie said truthfully:
βI heard it when I was very young,β
βBut I didnβt know what it was called at that time,β
βAnd I havenβt heard it since then.β
Claire smiled and said, βItβs a nice song, but itβs old.β
βProbably over fifty years old.β
βSo longβ¦β Charlie muttered, not surprised.
After all, his mother had often listened to this song over twenty years ago,
So he could guess it must be very old.
Claire placed the cake in front of the hotel roomβs floor-to-ceiling window,
Lighting it with candles numbered 2 and 9.
Then, she looked out at the snow-covered cityscape at night and said to Charlie,
βHoney, make a wish.β
Charlie nodded, sat across from her, closed his eyes, and, accompanied by the song, devoutly made a wish.
This birthday wish came to him subconsciously.
He hoped to quickly eradicate the Warriors Den and Victoria,
Confess his identity to Claire and earn her forgiveness,
And then live a simple and peaceful life with her.
