the two-faced Adopted Girl Who Melted CEO's Ice-Cold Heart

Chapter 1510 - 1500: Happy New Year, Chloe Winston

  • Next Chapter

Constantine Stewart’s deep gaze looked at the snow softly illuminated by the streetlight and said in a deep voice, "When I was very young, I would receive a New Year’s gift from my father every year, so I wanted to continue this tradition. Receiving gifts always makes people happy."

Chloe Winston was surprised for a moment, then said softly after a long pause, "I also brought you a gift."

Constantine Stewart’s eyes suddenly brightened, and he gently clasped her wrist, smiling for a long while, "Thank you, actually your return is the best gift."

Constantine Stewart looked at the snow falling heavier and led her back, getting into the car and driving towards Spring Prosperity Garden.

As Chloe Winston got into the car, she saw fireworks blooming across the night sky outside, seemingly following their car, blossoming all the way to Spring Prosperity Garden.

A wide path was cleared inside Spring Prosperity Garden, the entire community was covered in snow, draped in silver like a world of ice and snow.

"I was afraid the flowers in the small garden would freeze, so I temporarily set up a greenhouse for you," Constantine Stewart saw her looking at the white greenhouse above the garden and smiled, "I know you cherish those flowers."

The greenhouse was built early, now covered with a thick layer of snow. The weight deformed it slightly, but thankfully the material quality is excellent and it hasn’t collapsed.

"After the first day of the New Year, I’ll have someone clear the snow to prevent the greenhouse from collapsing and hurting anyone."

"Okay, okay," Chloe Winston didn’t quite understand this, went straight inside and saw the beautifully romantic living room decorated with various flowers, with New Year’s gifts of all sizes elegantly wrapped and piled on the sofa.

"These are all things I’ve seen over the past year that I liked and bought for you, just never had the chance to give them to you," Constantine Stewart entered the living room, took off his coat, and brushed off the snow, then said in a deep, sexy voice, "Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year," said Chloe Winston, her eyes glazing over with mist, smiling slightly.

"Constantine Stewart, it’s Chinese New Year’s Eve today, why don’t you stay here? It’s better for two people to stay up than one," she thought for a moment and said.

Constantine Stewart’s tall figure paused slightly, then nodded and said, "Let me change clothes first, you can unwrap the New Year’s gifts, we’ll stay up together tonight."

He saw her excitedly unwrapping the New Year’s gifts like a child, his gaze softened, his elegantly handsome face smiling slightly. Then he remembered he needed to shave the emerging stubble; his days lately had been careless, indifferent to all matters, but now that Chloe was back, he had to tidy himself up more presentably.

Constantine Stewart went upstairs, while Chloe sat downstairs, turned on the indoor heating, and then watched the Spring Festival Gala on TV, unwrapping her New Year’s gifts as she watched.

Indeed, as Constantine Stewart said, these were casually bought; there were expensive bracelets, cute, plush toys, and charming, stylish diamond hair clips.

Chloe Winston touched the hair clip, imagining this noble and elegant man from a renowned family actually visiting a girls’ accessory shop, specifically buying her hair clips, suddenly feeling moved.

Chloe Winston unwrapped all the gifts and set them up neatly, tidied up the gift boxes, and brewed two cups of coffee, sitting in the spring-like teahouse, looking at the snow gently falling outside through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

In the past three months, although she had fun, she’d always been thinking about the Imperial City, feeling that no matter how far she traveled, she would always return home.

This is her home.

After changing into comfortable home clothes, Constantine Stewart saw the TV on in the living room, with Chloe sitting in the teahouse lost in thought, the soft orange light falling on her making the entire house instantly warm.

He often comes here alone, misses her dearly, even stays overnight. Despite ample heating, the house always felt incredibly cold until she returned, bringing the warmth of home.

The man didn’t dare approach, afraid everything before him was just a dream.

The phone kept buzzing; on Chinese New Year’s Eve, even people who usually dive would surface to send New Year’s wishes or gifts and red packets.

Ignatius Leclair was showing off his three cute little ones in the WeChat group, sharing the New Year’s greeting video.

In front of the camera, the lively and adorable Benjamin Leclair wore a red modified cotton jacket, tied with two cute bun hairstyles, and said sweetly and softly to the camera, "Happy New Year, Benjamin is here to greet the cutest uncles and aunties, Daddy said Uncle Constantine will be alone for New Year this year, but don’t worry, when Benjamin grows up, I can keep Uncle company for New Year."

"Benjamin, if Uncle Constantine is still alone for New Year when you grow up, that would be terribly sad," remarked Nicholas Carter, handsome and pretty, standing by seriously.

"You’re revealing too many truths, your Uncle Constantine just doesn’t deign to look for a young auntie, otherwise people wanting to marry into the Stewart family could queue from Imperial City to London," Ignatius Leclair laughed deeply from the side, "Come, Fourth Treasure, smile for the camera."

With the video, the lens switched to the Leclair little prince crawling around on the crib.

The little baby stared with jet-black eyes, curiously watching daddy and mommy, then extended a small hand to knock the phone over, turning the screen black with laughter from the Leclair family in the background.

Once Ignatius Leclair’s New Year’s video hit the group, it exploded.

This WeChat group included only members from the Leclair Family, Howard Family, and Shaw Family young descendants, adding Constantine Stewart who barely counted as a Shaw family in-law.

Drake Howard was the first to message the group teasingly, "Haha, Old Leclair, dare to come out and show off, the old lady was just talking about Benjamin earlier, wondering why little Benjamin isn’t in Imperial City for New Year this year. I’m going to complain."

Ignatius Leclair raised his eyebrows, sneering, "We couples are capable; able to birth such adorably defiant babies, why can’t we show it off?"

Richard Shaw then appeared, sending a line, "The Shaw family will have a little princess next May."

Balthazar and Alaric Howard rolled their eyes vigorously, "Henpecked husbands! Baby slaves!"

"Alright, New Year greetings done, remember to send red packets."

Constantine Stewart squinted, "Appealing for single dog’s care, shouldn’t you all with families send me red packets too."

Everyone immediately cursed and laughed, "Get lost—"

Constantine Stewart was mocked in the group, but his mood remained good, and after a while, he leisurely said, "I’ll try to invite you to a wedding next year."

"What the heck? Old Constantine, you won over your wife?"

"This is like the fabled tale, Old Constantine finally moved the Winston little girl."

"Cough cough, somehow I just don’t believe it, wasn’t the Winston little girl still diving yesterday, how is she suddenly in Imperial City today?"

Constantine Stewart curved his lips in a smile, turned off WeChat, no longer caring what they said, and entered the teahouse.
