Chapter 36 Birthday gift.
The following week, Flynn received a call from Doctor Hudson that the result of the test he conducted was out.
The way the doctor spoke on phone sent a shiver to his spine, ”I’ll advise you come as fast as you can to see for yourself.”
Well, Flynn was not going to let that bother him, the following day was his woman’s birthday.
Whatever the result may be, he was not going to think about it till he finished celebrating his wife’s birthday.

Melanie woke up very late in the morning on her birthday, she looked around and Flynn wasn’t in the room. She sat up and carried the cup of tea that Flynn had prepared on the table beside the bed and drank slowly from it. After, she went to the bathroom and did her morning business there.
She pulled off Flynn’s cloth that was on her body and wore her pajamas and walked out of the room slowly, running her hand through her hair.
While she was descending the stairs, her leg hit a tiny thread and white petals poured gently on her head. She smiled and looked up and saw the box the petals fell from. After she descended a few more stairs, her leg hit another tiny thread and pink petals poured gently over her.
”What is going on?” She whispered, smiling.
When she descended the last stair, red petals fell over her and she looked around the living room. It was quite dark but she could see adornments shining from afar. She creased her brow and opened her mouth to call someone when she heard a sound, if she wasn’t mistaken, she bet it was a guitar.
Whoever was playing the guitar started to play a birthday song. Then, a masculine yet heavenly voice started to sing,
”Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday to you… Priceless Jewel.
Happy birthday to you,”
The lights turned on and Elle, Kyle, Tyler, and Melinda screamed ”Happy birthday!”
Melanie looked at Flynn who had a guitar in his arms, with a smile plastered across his face.
She covered her face with her palm and cried softly.
”I can’t believe this,” she cried out.
Flynn dropped the guitar and walked towards her.
He removed a white rose, pink rose, and red rose from his chest pocket and pointed it at her.
”The white petals you came across first symbolize purity, it represents the innocence and loyalty that you have. The pink petals you saw next represent the admiration I have for the kind of person you are. The red rose symbolizes love. It represents the love and passion I have for you. Happy birthday to you, Queen of my heart. You have no idea how much I love you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I love you very much, Melanie Tatum Harlan,” Flynn confessed and kissed her lips.
They kissed for almost a minute, Melanie pulled away then hugged him tightly.
”I love you too, sweetheart,” Melanie grinned and turned to face the rest.
”This is one of the best things I’ve received in my life. I love you all so much. Thank you so much, for making this day very pleasant for me. Thank you,” Melanie smiled and went to hug them each.
”Everything is Flynn’s idea. He planned everything. Kyle, Tyler, and I planned everything while mum supervised it. Look, your husband even sang for you. I’ve never heard Flynn sing even though he is my brother. I love the two of you, stay happy and make babies,” Elle smiled and hugged Melanie.
”Well, we have a surprise for you!” Kyle rushed forward.
”On behalf of the Harlan twins, we present this to you,” Kyle grinned and gave her a small box.
”Here is my gift, Princess. Happy birthday to you. I wish you many years to come,” Melinda hugged her and gave her a big box.
“Happy birthday to you bestie, accept this little gift. I’ll do better next year, promise,” Tyler smiled slightly and gave her a big bag then Melanie hugged him.
”No gift is small to me, you know,” Melanie said when she pulled away.
Everyone stared at Flynn and he smiled then walked towards Melanie and kissed her on the lips.
”That’s my gift, baby,” he grinned and Melanie laughed.
”You are a gift to me already.”
”So, we are not gifts to you? Whatever, open the gifts I want to know my competitor,” Elle rolled her eyes and everyone laughed.
”Okay,” Melanie laughed and settled on the couch.
”I’ll start with the Harlan twins’ gift,” Melanie dropped the bags in her hand and held the box, and started to untie the ribbon around it.
She saw that everybody except Flynn held their breath to see what was in the box. She grinned then opened the box hurriedly.
She gasped when she saw a car key inside the box and screamed.
”This is for me!?”
”Of course, you think we bought it for brother?” Kyle adjusted his collar.
”Wow, I got my first car from the Harlan twins. Thanks so much, brother and sister-in-law,” Melanie giggled.
”How could you get her a car?” Flynn stood up and pointed his finger at them.
”Rest bro, it is you who chose not to give your wife any gift,” Kyle rolled his eyes.
”Whatever, I am a gift already. Right, wifey?” Flynn flashed Melanie a smile.
”Yes, hubby,” Melanie laughed.
”Okay, okay, wifey and hubby. Sister in law, open the next gift,” Elle clapped her hands.
”Okay, I’ll open mum’s gift next,” Melanie said and began to unwrap the nylon around the box.
After that, she opened the box and gasped at what she saw, her mother got her complete Tiara jewelry.
”Mum!” She screamed out in excitement and stood from the couch to hug her mum.
”That must be expensive,” Melanie cried out.
”It is not, my baby,” Melinda smiled and Melanie hugged her again.
”This is very beautiful,” Elle smiled as she looked closely at the Tiara gift that consist of a crown, earrings, bangles, necklace, and anklet.
”I want something like this when it’s my birthday, mum,” Elle smiled and Melanie laughed.
”I disagree.”
”Let’s wait till then. Birthday girl, let’s check the last gift since your husband refuse to give you a gift,” Elle rolled her eyes and everyone laughed.
Melanie sat down and opened the last gift by Tyler.
She giggled when she saw the gift. It was a gold Haute handbag, a best friend mug, and a pack of chocolate.
”This is very beautiful Tyler. Thank you so much,” she grinned as she stared at the best friend mug.
”I feel like crying. Thank you so much, guys. You have no idea how much this means to me,” Melanie started to cry.
”Stop being so emotional, babe,” Flynn pulled her to himself and stroke her hair gently.
”I love you,” Melanie smiled at you.
”Even though he did not give you any gift? Wow,” Kyle shook his head and everyone laughed.
”By the way…” Flynn stood up and walked towards the couch opposite him and carried a handbag that was behind the couch and walked towards Melanie.
”Wear this dress, let’s go out,” Flynn smiled and Melanie collected the bag from him.
”I don’t care where you are going but we are going with you. Final!” Kyle snapped his finger and Elle nodded in agreement.
”You guys are pests,” Flynn shook his head.
”You can say that again, bro,” Kyle laughed.
”Sister in law, I am dressing you up in that beautiful dress brother got for you, deal?” Elle winked at her.
”Deal,” Melanie winked back.
”You are wearing the Jewelry mum got you, okay?” Tyler impersonated a pose.
”Of course, darling,” Elle blew him a kiss.
”Ah… Whatever,” Flynn shook his head.
”By the way, this cake is very tempting. Can the birthday girl blow out the candle? I can’t wait to stuff it in my mouth,” Kyle said, staring at the cake.
”You guys are dumb, the cake was the first thing she ought to cut,” Flynn chuckled.
”Hehehe, see who is talking,” Kyle laughed.
”What did you mean?” Flynn glared at Kyle.
”Mean as how?” Kyle smirked.
”Sister in law, let’s leave here, I’m sure Kyle is intentionally doing this to annoy your husband,” Elle whispered to Melanie and they both giggled.
Elle and Melanie packed the gifts and walked away silently.
”I’ll prepare breakfast,” Melinda sighed.
”I’ll join you, mum,” Tyler laughed at Kyle and Flynn and followed Melinda to the kitchen.
”Hey! You are d£ad today. I’ll k! ll you and bury you, a$$hole. Just stay where you are,” Flynn waved his hand at Kyle who had started to run around in the living room.

Elle had insisted that they join Flynn and Melanie in the car instead of Following them in another car.
”Flynn is not a nice person. In a blink of an eye, you won’t see his car anymore,” Elle had said.
However, the ride to wherever Flynn was taking them to was not peaceful at all. Elle and Kyle got on each other’s throats and they started to argue about who brought the idea of presenting a car to Melanie for her birthday.
Flynn said nothing and only held Melanie’s hand while kissing it occasionally. The silver dress that he bought for her had a brown ornament around it which made her look very beautiful.
The jewelry her mother had gotten for her added more to her beauty making her look like a Queen of a kingdom.
He pulled the car in front of a huge building and press the horn of the car, the gate opened almost immediately and he drove in.
”What are we doing here?” Kyle looked around and saw a few of Harlan’s guards including Devon.
Flynn smiled and beckoned to Devon who walked swiftly towards him.
He handed two boxes to Flynn, bowed then walked back to where he was standing.
”I asked your mum what your dream was and she said your dream was to be a Jeweler. I thought about it and I think it will be nice if you become one. This building is one of my companies so I’ve made changes for you to be the owner. As you see, I have not done a thing there. I hope you be one of the best Jewelers in Los Angeles,” Flynn ended his word with a smile.
”Wait… You mean… this huge building belongs… to me?” Melanie whispered, unsurely.
”Yes, baby. It might not be up to your taste but I hope…”
”You hope what? Gosh, love, this is too much!” Melanie started to cry.
”It is not, babe. You deserve more than this,” Flynn said and Melanie rushed to hug him.
”Thank you so much!” Melanie cried.
”And… I got this for you but these twins beat me to it,” Flynn eyed Elle and Kyle who were still in shock, and opened one of the boxes.
”Over there…” He held her head and moved it slowly to the left where four guards opened a black cloth and revealed the most beautiful car she’d ever seen.
”I got it shipped into Los Angeles two days ago,” Flynn whispered in her ear.
”Gosh, Flynn… I can’t handle this… I need to cry…” Melanie whispered, hit her chest slightly, and started to cry.
”Why are you being so emotional?” Flynn pulled her towards him and hugged her, stroking her hair.
”Gosh, you are bad, Flynn!” Elle screamed.
”This birthday gift is top-notch…”
”Second to none!”
Elle and Kyle screamed in excitement.
”This is too much,” Melanie whispered to Flynn.
”It is not. You deserve more,” Flynn patted her back, raised her chin, and kissed her lips.
”Gosh, Flynn,” Melanie hid her face on his chest.
”This is nothing, babe. Come on…” Flynn pulled her away gently.
”I love you.”
”I love you more than you can ever imagine,” Flynn smiled.
Melanie smiled back and hugged her husband tightly.
Her husband was one in a million.

“Boss, I gathered the information you have been waiting for. She is pregnant.”
”Camila Hayes is pregnant?” The man dropped the bottle of wine he was holding and stood up.
”Yes, boss,”
”Wow, Finally! Do you think I should go to her now?” He stared at his informant.
”I think you should exercise patient, boss. It seems like she is still obsessed with some man,” the informant bowed a little.
”Okay. Get a bouquet and drop it in front of her house,” he smiled heartily.
”From here to Los Angeles?”
”You can get it when you get to Los Angeles,” He smiled.
”Sure, boss,” the informant nodded his head and exit the room.
Reld Walton lives in Texas but came to Los Angeles to finalize a deal. His car got faulty in the middle of the road and he stood by his Car to see anyone pass by that could help.
Soon, a car drove past him, then splashed water at him. He cursed inwardly but when he saw the car reverse and pulled behind his car, his anger subdued.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
A beautiful lady came out of the car and lashed him with words instead of apologizing. As if that was not enough, she’d said, ”Actually, you look like you need help. I don’t mind giving you a ride.”
Well, it meant two things to him.
‘I’ll drive you and I’ll ride you.
Somehow, he felt attracted to the woman and they both had copulated.
”A man with a body structure like you ought to be a good fvcker, but no one can be like him anyways… Remember this, we have never met. Don’t go around telling people we fvcked.”
Well, he liked the woman already.
When he got back to Texas, he had his trusted man look into her since he had stolen a picture of her when she wasn’t looking.
He got to find out that she was Camila. Camila Hayes.
Well, no matter whom she was obsessed with, he was going to make her fall for him. At all cost.
