Chapter 303 Whispers of a Birthday

A faint tremor stirred within Eleanor as her thoughts wandered. She guessed as to what Robert wanted...

He had invited her to spend his birthday with him.

Her cheeks flushed, and her fingers unconsciously clenched into fists.

“Madam, now that you know, it's not too late to begin preparations,” Jacob’s calm voice broke through her reverie, noticing the surprise mixed with contemplation on her face.

“Preparation…” Eleanor murmured as if the word carried a weight she hadn’t fully considered.

Jacob nodded, his expression sincere. “Yes. If the Master receives a gift that’s been carefully chosen by you, Madam, he would be absolutely elated.”

Eleanor’s lips curved slightly, a rare softness in her tone as she replied, “You’re right.”

She would need to prepare a gift for Robert—something special.

Three days passed in a blur.

When Robert’s birthday finally arrived, Eleanor’s gift was ready. His injuries had improved, and he was already able to move around freely.
