Chapter 421
This was a song he wrote for his beloved baby sister.
Astrid was stunned to find out that not only Nathan could sing this song, but all the other brothers could
too. Listening to their singing and looking at their faces, Astrid's eyes became moist. This must be what
being spoiled felt like.
"Star, check this out." Nash stepped forward, carefully pulling out a small bottle from his bag.
He then picked up a pot of roses from the windowsill and gently poured the clear liquid from the bottle
onto the petals. The petals visibly changed color once soaked in the liquid, and soon, the pink rose
turned blue. But the flower was still as vibrant as ever, with no signs of damage or wilting. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
"Holy cow, that's insane! Is it dyed?" Gracie quickly reached out to touch the liquid, then exclaimed in
surprise, "Oh my god, it's not dye!"
Nash gave a slight smile, "This is a drug that can change the genetic makeup of plants. Even though
the color changes, it won't affect the life of the flower. With this, Star can have blue roses anytime she
wants."
"Thank you, I love it!" Astrid's fondness for blue roses was well-known. Hawthorne even set up a base
to breed blue roses for her, and Elio went as far as buying several farms overseas to grow large fields
of blue roses.
Not to be outdone, Edgar and Edwin gave her an entire property.
All the brothers watched Astrid, eager to know whose gift she liked the most. Just then, Roman, who
had been watching from the side, gently asked, "Mom, the uncles' gifts are all so great, will you still like
the gift I give you?"
Upon hearing this, Astrid gently picked up Roman, "No matter what you give me, I'll love it."
"Really?" Roman smiled, his face pressed against Astrid's, and said, "Mom, then let me down, I'll get
the gift. You have to close your eyes, no peeking!"
"Alright." Astrid closed her eyes as asked, and Roman quickly dashed into the room, soon returning
with a small cake in hand. The cake looked a bit rough around the edges, with a slightly crooked Snow
White on top that looked like it might fall over any second.
Everyone watched Roman's careful demeanor and couldn't help but smile.
"Mom, you can open your eyes now." Once Roman finished speaking, Astrid opened her eyes.
Seeing the cake in front of her, Astrid's eyes teared up again, "Baby, did you make this cake for me?"
Roman bashfully nodded, "Grandma taught me, but I didn't do a very good job. Mom, do you like it?"
"I love it, I really do." Astrid held Roman close, whispering, "This is the most beautiful cake I've ever
seen."
"Really?" Roman beamed, "I'm going to grow up strong. I will protect you and make my mom the
happiest princess."
Gracie wasn't easily moved, but she felt a little touched seeing this scene. Back then, despite the tough
circumstances, they managed to keep the child. Otherwise, this warm little angel wouldn't be here now.
Everyone enjoyed the little cake that Roman made. The house didn't have enough beds, so Robb took
the others to stay at a hotel.
Gracie originally wanted to stay, but she thought that if Elio came, she would just be in the way.
