Superstar Husband & Genius Wife - Chapter 12：Gift

The voice of people throwing themselves into the sea water was heard. Carolina, who had been recording Andrew, was silent. She’s still recording but her mind is somewhere.

She never thought that Andrew would say such a thing. She was aware of his feelings, but this was not the right time for her to fall in love.

“Carol, my clothes,” said Andrew who had been beside her and asked for clothes that were held tightly by Carolina.

“Ah, yes! Here!” said Carolina handing Andrew’s clothes,” Is the water cold?” asked Carolina, who saw Andrew starting to shiver with cold. She was starting to feel a little guilty for making Andrew throw himself in the water.

“Not really!” said Andrew who then tried to immediately put on his t-shirt while his body was still wet. However, Carolina immediately took the shirt and wiped Andrew’s body.

Before he thought of anything weird, Andrew immediately took the t-shirt back and wiped his own body.

“Do you want to go back to the hotel now?” Carolina asked when Andrew had put his shirt back on and grabbed his wet T-shirt.

“Let’s eat there first, let’s go,” said Andrew, pointing to a restaurant.

The appearance of the restaurant is almost the same as other restaurants with dozens of chairs and tables neatly arranged on the beach, completed with candle light decorations and lanterns as lighting.

“But I didn’t have my wallet,” said Carolina. She thought they were just going for a walk, and wouldn’t stop by for food.

“I’ll be the one who p … I mean, later you can pay me at the hotel. I brought my wallet,” said Andrew, pulling out his wallet from his shirt pocket. After getting to know Carolina, this woman did not want anyone to treat her to, unless there was a certain event.

So Andrew deliberately mentioned that she could change the money so that she would also eat with him.

“Okay,” said Carolina, who finally followed Andrew.

“D*mn, how come the food is so expensive!” said Carolina to herself when she saw the menu the waiter had brought them.

The atmosphere of the place was quite crowded, but they still got seats outside to watch the sunset.

“Chicken Burger, and for the drink… one Cappuccino. What do you want to order?” asked Andrew when he had finished listing his order.

Carolina’s eyes quickly saw the price of the food Andrew ordered, the total amount of the two meals was 40 thousand rupiah.

Carolina winced when calculating the price, if at the boarding house she can eat 2 times for that price! It’s full too!

“I’m French Fries with Hot Chocolate,” said Carolina then handed her the menu she was holding. The total amount of the order is 30 thousand rupiah. Even though it was still quite expensive, at least she ordered something.

“I read the order again, one Chicken Burger, one French Fries, one Cappuccino and one Hot Chocolate. Please wait a moment!” said the waiter, checking their orders before finally leaving.

The atmosphere between the two of them returned to silence, neither of them said anything. Those who sat side by side only focused their gaze forward, looking at the sun that was setting soon.

“Carol,” Andrew called suddenly. He did not know if Carolina had heard his confession earlier, seeing that woman was still acting as usual made Andrew nervous.

“Didn’t she hear it?” thought Andrew.

“Hm,” replied Carolina who was still looking out to sea.

“This is an order for Cappuccino one and Hot Chocolate one, excuse me,” suddenly the waiter came with their drinks. He then took out a match from his pocket and lit a candle in the center of the table.

Shortly thereafter the lanterns that were deliberately hung above also lit up. Adds to the atmosphere to be more romantic.

“The food, wait a little longer. Enjoy,” said the waiter then left.

“Did you hear what I said?” asked Andrew when the waiter left, he occasionally glanced at Carolina who was still staring at the sea view in front of him.

“Hm.”

“Oh yeah, this is for you,” Andrew said, taking out a box and placing it right in front of Carolina.

Carolina looked at the box for a moment, before holding it and asking, “what’s this?” she asked, now turning her body to face Andrew.

“A present,” Andrew replied with a smile.

“But it’s you who has a birthday, why did you even give me a present?” asked Carolina, totally confused.

“With you who are here with me, it has become the best present on my birthday this time,” Andrew replied with a tone that was more gentle than usual, he looked at Carolina deeply, as if to reveal that what he said was really sincere. from deep in his heart.

“Is this really for me?” Carolina asked in confirmation.

“Yes, just open it,” said Andrew.

Carolina then opened the box given by Andrew and found a pair of drop type earrings with a white raindrop-like style. Even though Carolina wasn’t really into jewelry, she could tell that the earrings were made in white gold.

“I can’t take it, it’s too expensive,” said Carolina, who immediately closed the box and placed it right in front of Andrew.

“W-What an expensive, T-This is white iron, only two hundred thousand,” said Andrew, who then put the box back in front of Carolina

Andrew winced in his heart when he heard what he just said, of course it was gold. 18 carat white with 75% gold content. The price, of course, is not just 200 thousand.

After all, since when did Andrew spend that much money on his girlfriend in the past? At least at least 6 digits of the money he spent.

As he thought, Carolina would refuse if he bought herself something expensive.

At first Andrew wanted to buy something in diamond, or rhinestone, but the material was too flashy and glamorous, Carolina definitely wouldn’t accept it. He then switched to buying something made of gold, but on second thought, Carolina definitely wouldn’t accept it even if the gold only had a little carat.

Finally he decided to look for jewelry in white gold, if Carolina refused, he could give the excuse that it was white iron.

The reason he chose earrings instead of bracelets was because he preferred staring at Carolina’s face, while the reason why he didn’t buy a ring was that it could be bought later at their wedding, ahem, or first engagement if Carolina doesn’t want to get married yet.

Carolina stared at Andrew, she clearly knew the man was lying from the tone of his voice. After thinking that it was the man’s birthday, Carolina then took the box and put it in the pocket of the hotpants she was wearing. On a normal day she certainly wouldn’t take it.

“Thank you!” said Carolina with a smile.

“Try it, I want to see,” said Andrew smiling. Then grab the drink and take a sip. But the look in his eyes could not be separated from Carolina.

“Later, at your birthday party,” said Carolina who suddenly felt embarrassed being stared at like that.

The atmosphere returned to silence, Carolina occasionally stirring her drink and then take a sip, waiting for the fries to arrive.

While Andrew seemed to be struggling, he seemed like he was about to say something but didn’t know where to start, afterall, this was his first time saying it.

“Carol,” Andrew called. He had decided to tell his feelings for what they were and sincerely.

“Hm,” said Carolina, who was still stirring her drink.

“Actually …”

“Excuse me, this is Chicken Burger 1 and French Fries 1, enjoy,” had not yet had time for Andrew to want to say his words, suddenly the waiter who had been serving them came with their order.

Andrew stared at the waiter with annoyance! How could that waiter come to bother at a time like this!
