Chapter 634: Absurd Present

Villain Ch 634. Absurd Present

The simple act of Allen wiping away Emma’s tears sent a warm flush across her cheeks. Her face transformed into varying shades of red, a telltale sign of the emotions racing within her. Her heart thumped rapidly, resonating with a newfound sense of belonging. In that moment, she felt like a princess, and Allen, her knightly brother, stood as her protector—a reassuring presence in her life.

Her blush deepened. Emma’s thoughts unraveled like a blossoming flower. Allen represented more than just a sibling; he was a pillar of support, a person to turn to when the weight of the world bore down on her shoulders.

In his presence, she discovered a sanctuary where she could shed tears, find solace, and share the responsibilities she had long shouldered as the sole successor to the Goldborne legacy.

The burdens she had carried seemed to dissipate, replaced by the comforting notion that she wasn’t alone anymore. Her father, engrossed in his duties, and her deceased mother had left voids in her life, making the discovery of a brother all the more precious. Emma reveled in the idea of having a partner, someone to share the responsibility, and a dependable shoulder to lean on.

Obediently, Emma nodded in agreement with Allen’s suggestion, settling comfortably by his side. A glance at the assembled girls revealed a sheepish smile on her face, a gesture seeking reconciliation after the unexpected emotional turmoil. "Sorry for acting like a kid," she admitted, the words offered with genuine sincerity.

Emma hoped the admission would serve as a bridge, dissolving any lingering awkwardness between them.

A wave of disbelief swept across the girls’ faces, creating a momentary pause in the room. Vivian, unable to contain her surprise, whispered, "Did she just say sorry?" Jane and Larissa exchanged nods, their shared annoyance with Emma momentarily overshadowed by the unexpected apology.

The tension that lingered in the air seemed to dissipate as Emma’s words hung in the room. There was a collective realization that she was navigating the uncharted territory of newfound relationships. Emma’s admission of acting like a kid acted as a bridge that she was still figuring things out.

Bella, unabashed, winked at Allen. "You will need them," she said proudly.

The room fell silent for a moment, interrupted only by stifled chuckles and awkward glances. Bella’s audacious gift left the room in an awkward silence, the weight of the moment hanging in the air.

With a casual glance at the stunned faces around her, Bella raised an eyebrow. "What? He’s gonna need it, right? I’m not kidding," she stated matter-of-factly, her mischievous grin suggesting she took pride in her unconventional choice.

Alice, not one to let such a moment slide, nudged Bella playfully. "So that’s what you meant by ’surprise him,’" she remarked, her tone laced with sarcasm. The room erupted in a burst of laughter, the tension diffusing into shared amusement at Bella’s boldness.

Unfazed by the reactions, Bella maintained her cheeky grin, reveling in the attention she had successfully garnered. "Yup!" she declared proudly, embracing the uniqueness of her gift with unapologetic confidence.

Allen swiftly tucked the two large packs of condoms away. "Thank you," he muttered, a hint of embarrassment coloring his words. His attempt at composure was evident, and with a softer tone, he added, "I’ll... uh, need it." The admission carried a mix of bashfulness and acknowledgment of the practicality behind Bella’s gift.

Vivian, with a sly grin, chimed in, "Well, at least we know Bella’s always thinking ahead."

Bella, undeterred, winked at Allen. "Hey, better safe than sorry, right?"

Jane, unable to resist the opportunity for a witty comment, added, "Looks like we’ve got the risk manager of the group here."
