Emma could not hide virtual-novel.net disappointment from virtual-novel.net facial expression.
Johnson was quite confident and supported his son-in-law by saying, “Emma, Thomas just only mentioned that virtual-novel.net wanted to give you a gift. Don’t worry, I’m sure virtual-novel.net will keep his promise. He has never failed to disappoint you all this time!”
Hugo shook his head. “Uncle Johnson, you are so silly and cute.”
“Thomas is offering gifts? What gifts could virtual-novel.net offer? Is it possible to send the gifts out of the television screen? Oh dear, don’t try to deceive yourselves and others. It’s best to accept reality. The best Thomas can do is to try pleasing you by saying that the next song is a ‘gift’ for you. It would actually be pretty good for virtual-novel.net to do this, at least virtual-novel.net hasn’t forgotten all of you.”
“Don’t expect too much from him. After all, what can a person buy with a monthly income of eight thousand dollars?”
Hugo’s words seemed to be ‘reasonable’.
‘Yes, Thomas is not even at home. How can virtual-novel.net offer his gifts? How can virtual-novel.net send it?’
‘It would be more reliable if virtual-novel.net had let someone send the gift over. The question is, Thomas is actually letting them watch television and wait for the gift. Haha, will the gift actually jump out of the television?’
This was just an international joke.
Emma shook virtual-novel.net head and stood up, “I have finished eating, and I will go to get my rest first.” She wished to get back to virtual-novel.net room.
Johnson immediately stopped her, “Why are you going away in such a hurry? Just wait until you’ve seen Tom’s gift. Don’t you even believe in your husband?”
For some reason, Johnson now trusted Thomas very much. Since Thomas had repeatedly helped virtual-novel.net solve his problems, Johnson now trusted virtual-novel.net immensely.
Emma sighed. She decided to give Thomas the duration of a song. ‘After listening to the song, I will see what kind of gift Thomas has prepared for me. If Hugo is correct and virtual-novel.net is just trying to please me by saying that the next song is a ‘gift’ for you, then… I really do not know what to do.’
For the duration of a song, every ticking of the clock was a difficult period to endure. Everyone had put down their chopsticks and were glued to the television as one, all curious to know the kind of tricks Thomas was using.
Finally, the song was over.
The emcee, Daniel Collins came on stage. After cracking some funny jokes, virtual-novel.net made an announcement to everyone. “There was a gentleman named Thomas. He had to work overtime tonight and virtual-novel.net could not spend New Year’s Eve with his wife. He regretted that and wanted to apologize to his wife. He prepared a gift for his wife, now, virtual-novel.net wanted to present this gift in front of everyone in front of the television.”
His voice slowly faded away. The fireworks went off.
There was a booming sound of fireworks. In a flash, the television screen was switched to multiples of small screens, and a display of fireworks was broadcasted on each screen. The entire Southland district was in a sea of fireworks.
Boom… Boom!
Emma also heard a series of fireworks exploding across the neighborhood. At the same time, a line appeared on the television screen, “Emma, the whole Southland City shines for you tonight!”
Emma’s jaws were dropping. She was totally speechless. ‘Thomas really went that far?’
Fireworks were being set off everywhere in Southland City. ‘How much money did virtual-novel.net spend to make this happen?’
Thomas really could do everything for Emma.
Johnson was overjoyed, got up and walked to the door. When virtual-novel.net gazed at the series of fireworks in the sky, virtual-novel.net could not contain his joy and smiled from ear to ear.
“Very good. Very good!”
