My mystery lover novel (Richard and Amy)
Chapter 376 Birthday Party

Robin stopped Marian from going to the garden, which was being decorated for the party. There would be an activity here on the day of the birthday party. So, ordinary people would not be allowed in for the time being.

"OK. Sorry, I won't go in." Marian did not say anything more and reluctantly walked away. This Robin hung around like a ghost all day. Wherever she went, he would always follow her.

Marian went back to the living room. Allen was drawing a picture and looked serious.

"Allen, what are you drawing?" Marian walked over. She watched Allen painting something with green on the drawing board.

"I'm drawing a grassland. I want to go to the grassland." Allen pointed to the patch of green, and the little horse and man.

"Allen, you want to go to the grassland? That sounds great. I can take you there." Marian's eyes lit up as soon as she heard that Allen wanted to go to the grassland.

"No, my mom will take me there. Aren't you going to help them? They're all busy for my dad's birthday party." The unpleasant experience had left a scar in Allen's heart. Although it had been so long ago, he still failed to come to terms with it.

"You are right. Then I am going to help them. I will leave you here alone." With that, Marian left. It was really hard to fool anyone in this family. Even such a child was so alert.

With everyone's efforts, they finally got everything ready before the party.

"We've never had a party at home. This time, Mr. Carter wants to celebrate Mrs. Carter's release from prison. Mr. Carter really loves Mrs. Carter!" When the servants were free, they began to talk about their

master.

Marian was listening attentively. She was interested in everything about Richard and Amy.

"So why did Mr. Carter not help Mrs. Carter when she went to jail?" Marian asked.

"We don't know. It seemed that something important delayed Mr. Carter. But Mr. Carter found a way to get Mrs. Carter out later." The servants were kind and didn't look down on the newcomer, just taking Marian as one of their own.

"Well, Mr. Carter really loves Mrs. Carter." Marian had an envious look on her face.

"Sure. In R City, everyone knows that Mr. Carter loves Mrs. Carter the most." One of the servants said proudly, as if she was the one who was favored.

Marian was happy to see that the servants in the family hadn't ostracized her. That was what she wanted.

On the day of the party, Amy got up early in the morning. She was the commander today and would be in charge of everything in the house. Cathy didn't stay idle either. She helped to set things up. The party today offered self-service. There were cakes and raffles after the party. The activity was well arranged.

"Mrs. Carter, this is the mangosteen that was just delivered. Should we peel them all?" someone held a box of mangosteens, walked to Amy, and asked her.

"Yes. Please peel them all and put them in the freezer." There was a row of freezers at the party. Although it was very cold now, the heat was on in the hall. A lot of seafood and fruits must be refrigerated, or it would affect the taste.

Amy checked all the places again and felt that there should be nothing wrong.

At ten o'clock, the guests came one after another. They did not invite many guests today and just selected those who had business dealings with the HD Group.

So, people who were invited all felt honored and arrived happily at the party with their families.

Andy came early and brought a large box of fresh seafood, which was delivered directly to Richard's house.

"I have been afraid it won't be delivered until this afternoon. Fortunately, under my repeated urging, it is finally delivered this morning. I send it over right away, afraid it won't be fresh if it is delayed for a long time." Andy commanded some people to move the box down.

"Thank you so much, Andy. I'm worried that we don't have enough seafood, and you deliver some to me in time. You are really offering timely help!" Amy let Andy in.

"Nice! I'm glad it can come in handy. I have been worried that it will be redundant. I've inquired about the seafood you've prepared. These I delivered are not the same as the ones you've prepared." Andy said proudly.

Richard also came out. He looked at Andy and greeted him. Hearing that Andy had delivered a lot of seafood, he pretended to be unhappy.

"You know that I can't eat seafood, and still deliver so much. You are deliberately angering me, are not you?"

"Come on. I also delivered some steak you like. I know it." Andy could accept it when he saw Richard and Amy were openly affectionate. As long as Amy was happy, nothing else mattered. He was Amy's best friend forever.

"You really know me. Then we'll have a few more drinks later. Why don't we get drunk like last time?" Richard smiled and shook hands with Andy.

"How come Kingsley hasn't come? Didn't he promise he would come early today? This guy must be having fun somewhere." Andy looked at the hall. Although some people had come, he did not see Kingsley. Kingsley had promised that he would come early. Now, Andy came there, but did not see Kingsley.

"I'll call him. He should have prepared something rare. He is always good at having fun!" Andy was about to call Kingsley.

Suddenly, there was a commotion at the door. A large handful of flowers were moved to them. The flowers were tied to a car. There was a large box behind it, which was more than three meters high. Finnley followed the car. Finnley was wearing a white shirt, black pants, and a gray cashmere coat today. He looked awesome and spirited!

"Amy, ask someone to take this away. This is Kingsley's gift. He asked us to open it while the party started later. It's mysterious. I don't know what it is." They all knew that Finnley and Kingsley were from a family. The two had never lied to them and just kept a low profile.

"Alright. This Kingsley always prepares something strange. Then we will open it later. It is just a birthday gift. But he makes it so mysterious." Richard also smiled brightly and did not expect that he had two more good friends in this period of time.☐☐
