Chapter 359 Memorial Day
Chapter 359 Memorial Day
Jose Baden looked at the report from his men and found it boring. Wasn't it just a small fight between gangs? Those policemen were really useless. They pinned all their hopes on a child.
Jose Badem rolled his eyes and threw the information onto the table, calling out to these useless bastards.
Jose Badem thought about it carefully and wondered what he would do if it were him.
Well... he might choose to take a gun and blow those idiots' heads off!!!
Think again, Carl's pitiful tearful look at that time.
kao~I'm going to kill them!!!
"Knock knock knock--" At this moment, the butler knocked on the door of Jose Badem's study.
"Lord Jose Baden has a friend of yours who is here to see you."
..................................................
"Oh! Why do I feel so humiliated! I have been doing thankless work, all the benefits have been taken away by you, and all the bad things have fallen on me. Why on earth do I humiliate myself like this?" Jose Badem kept muttering to himself, his face full of helplessness and resentment.
However, despite his reluctance, he finally handed over the items that had been prepared.
At this moment, Natasha, who was sitting opposite Jose Baden, didn't know how to respond for a moment. She could only keep smiling and apologizing to Jose Baden.
In fact, Natasha had begged Jose Baden to help find the item he gave her a long time ago. Jose Baden always found it difficult to refuse requests from his family.
But at the same time, he knew very well what would happen once he gave this gift away - there was no doubt that the four troublesome little ancestors would come to visit again. Thinking of this, Jose Baden couldn't help but feel a splitting headache.
But no matter how much he kept complaining, no matter how clear he was about the consequences of giving away this item, Jose Badem still repeatedly warned his ship heading East, asking them to bring this item back.
Thinking of this, Jose Badem really wanted to slap himself, but if he were given another chance, he would still do it.
"Oh, thank you so much, Mr. Jose Badem!" Natasha happily took the gift from Jose Badem and bowed deeply to him to express her heartfelt gratitude.
Just before Natasha left with the gift, he heard Jose Badem call her from behind, "Natasha... Happy anniversary."
Natasha smiled slightly, "Thank you."
.................................................. ..
"Mom!" After returning to the manor, Natasha threw herself into Michiko's arms like a baby bird. Even though she was married and a mother of two children, Natasha was still like a little girl in front of Michiko.
"Oh, what's wrong with my little baby?" Faced with her daughter's sudden coquettishness, Michiko seemed surprised and a little at a loss.
"Mom, do you remember what day it is today?" Natasha asked Michiko with a smile.
Of course Michiko remembered that today was her beloved daughter's wedding anniversary. Every year on this day, Natasha would go to celebrate with Joke. So Michiko felt very strange to suddenly see Natasha today. How did this little girl come to her?
"Mom, I have a gift for you..." Natasha pushed a beautifully wrapped gift box into Michiko's arms, "Don't forget that it's not just me and Jake who are getting married that day."
After saying that, Natasha jumped and ran away. Today was her and Joke's anniversary, so naturally she had to go find Joke.
...........................................
Michiko returned to the room holding the gift Natasha gave her.
Before opening the gift, Michiko thought carefully about the meaning of what Natasha said.
Indeed, at Natasha's wedding, there were not only Natasha and Jake getting married... but also myself and Miles...
Come to think of it, I have never worn a real wedding dress, whether it is a wedding dress from my hometown or a European wedding dress, I seem to have never worn one...
Michiko suddenly shook her head.
What was he thinking? Seeing Natasha wearing her pure white wedding dress in the church was enough to make his precious daughter happy, wasn't that enough? What was he expecting?
Michiko comforted herself while opening the gift Natasha gave her.
Something that couldn't be more familiar, something Michiko had always dreamed of appeared in the gift box.
It was a white wedding dress.
Michiko picked up the white wedding dress as if possessed by a ghost, and before he knew it, he had already put it on.
It was exactly the same as what I had imagined in my dreams countless times, very beautiful.
Michiko suddenly remembered what happened when Natasha and Jake celebrated their wedding anniversary. Natasha would always take out the wedding dress she wore on her previous wedding, and then put it on again to recreate the scene with Jake.
Perhaps because of the "lessons learned from the past", Michiko felt that it was not a bad idea to be a little willful occasionally. After all, no one in the manor...except herself, probably no one could recognize what kind of clothes these were?
As expected, when Michiko walked around the manor in this white wedding dress, people she met along the way would only compliment her by saying, "Wow, this dress is so beautiful!"
Actually, this is not bad. Being able to hear everyone praising this dress and being able to walk in everyone's sight wearing this dress is already very satisfying for Michiko.
Just as Michiko was standing in the garden admiring the flowers, he suddenly heard Miles' voice behind him, "Michiko."
Michiko turned around and looked in the direction of the voice......
That's simply......
Michiko really doubted whether she was in a dream.
The reason is simple, because Miles was wearing a "Montsuke Hakama".
If I just tell you the name of the dress, most people probably don't know it, so I'll explain it this way. In Michiko's country, this dress is usually called a groom's suit.
"Michiko..." Miles slowly came over, gently held her hands, and said affectionately, "You are so beautiful."
"Miles..." Michiko threw herself into Miles' arms, not daring to look up, because she was afraid that tears would fall as soon as she looked up.
"Michiko..." Miles gently hugged Michiko, and then said, "I promised you that I would make you my bride, let you wear a white wedding dress, and we would walk into the palace of marriage together... I'm sorry... I postponed this promise for so long... So now, do we still keep our promise?"
"Yes."
This was the first English word Michiko learned at that time, and she used this word when Miles asked her if she was willing to go with him.
And now Michiko used this word again, saying that she was willing to marry Miles.
.................................................
the other side,
Natasha had already prepared her anniversary gift.
She ran to Jack happily and quickly prepared everything.
"Relax, Joke. You will like my dance." Natasha said as she pushed Joke down on the chair.
"You're like this... I can't calm down." Qiu Ke said jokingly, but what he said was true.
The reason was simple, because the gift Natasha prepared this time was to imitate and reproduce the famous dance in history - the Dance of the Seven Veils.
There is a story behind this dance————
Salome was the stepdaughter of King Herod, and her mother Herodias was the sister-in-law of King Herod. After King Herod married Herodias, Salome also became the stepdaughter of King Herod.
One day, King Herod held a grand banquet for his birthday. At the banquet, Salome performed a dance of seven veils for the guests. She was dressed in seven layers of veils and danced to the rhythm of the music. Her dancing was so graceful and moving that it attracted the attention of everyone present.
King Herod was deeply attracted by Salome's dancing. He said to her, "You dance very well. I can fulfill any of your wishes." Salome was secretly happy to hear what King Herod said. She said to King Herod, "I want the head of John the Baptist."
And John the Baptist was the person Salome loved.
"How beautiful Salome is tonight. She doesn't want a blue peacock, she doesn't want an emerald, she wants the head of the person she loves."
Natasha repeated the famous sentence and then asked, "Juke, do you think I am beautiful?"
On the stage, the lights were soft and as quiet as moonlight. Natasha, wearing seven layers of gauze as thin as a cicada's wing, walked lightly into the center of the stage.
She seemed to be covered in starlight, walking towards Jack.
Her figure was graceful, like a blooming flower. As the music sounded, she began to dance. Her arms swayed softly like a snake, and her waist twisted gently, as if she was telling an ancient and mysterious story.
Her eyes are deep and charming, as if they can penetrate the hearts of the audience. Her smile is as warm as the sun, making people involuntarily intoxicated.
As the music's tempo gradually quickened, her movements became more intense. Her gauze dress fluttered in the air like colorful clouds. Her body moved as fast as lightning, making it hard to keep up with the sight.
The most important feature of the Dance of the Seven Veils is that the dancers take off a layer of veil after each short dance.
Natasha danced while lightly taking off her gauze clothes layer by layer.
From gray to blue to purple to red to yellow to gold and finally pink.
Just like the sun rises slowly and the night passes slowly.
Every dance step of Natasha seemed to be dancing on the suffering she had experienced in the past, and every time she took off a piece of gauze, it was like taking off a shackle that had once been on her body.
Joke's eyes never left Natasha. He was deeply attracted by her beauty and charm. When Natasha danced to the last layer of veil, her beauty reached its peak. Joke stood up, walked to the stage, and hugged Natasha tightly in his arms. Natasha raised her head and looked into Joke's eyes. Their lips gradually moved closer, sharing their romantic moment.
Everything that followed should have developed smoothly and naturally, but Natasha unexpectedly raised her hand to block Jack's lips that were getting closer.
"Wait a moment, Jake." Natasha smiled faintly, and then whispered, "According to past legends, after Salome finished this dance, she asked the king for the head of John the Baptist."
Natasha slowly moved her body, put her lips as delicate as rose petals close to Jack's ear, and whispered with a sweet breath: "So what are you going to give me now?"
"Tell me, my charming 'Salome', what exactly do you desire?" said Joke with a smile.
Natasha gently moved her hand to Jake's chest, feeling his hot beating heart. "What I want is your heart."
"It has already belonged to you." Jack stretched out his hand without hesitation, gently and slowly stroking Natasha's hand on his heart, as if to convey the most sincere emotions from the bottom of his heart through the skin, "Not only this heart, but also my soul, my thoughts, and even my entire body, all of which belong to you exclusively."
Hearing this affectionate confession, Natasha couldn't help but let out a clear and pleasant laugh.
Then, this time it was Natasha who took the first action. She tilted her head slightly and took the initiative to give Jack a kiss, kissing him passionately on the lips.
How beautiful Natasha is tonight. She doesn't want a blue peacock, she doesn't want an emerald, she wants the heart of the person she loves.
