ire finally stirred awake at seven o’clock in the morning. She had enjoyed a night of deep rest, even more restful than usual. Not a single dream had crossed her mind, nor did she wake up at all during the night. As a result, she felt incredibly energized today.
Although ire didn’t spot Charlie after waking, she wasn’t surprised. She knew he typically rose before her each morning.
Today, ire was particrly excited because Charlie had promised to take her fruit and vegetable picking. The thought filled her with joy.
After freshening up, ire slipped into her sports attire and headed downstairs.
She assumed Charlie would be in the kitchen making breakfast, and she anticipated they would leave for the suburbs after eating. However, to her surprise, she found Charlie waiting for her in the living room.<fn9d81> Updates are released by FιndNovel</fn9d81><h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Upon seeing ire, Charlie greeted her with a bright smile, eximing, “My wife! Let’s head out to pick some fruits and vegetables now!”
ire was taken aback and asked, “Wait, are we leaving already? We haven’t even had breakfast yet…”
With a grin, Charlie replied, “Why eat breakfast now? We can have it when we return.”
He then took her hand gently and started leading her outside.
ire’s heart raced at the unexpected gesture. She felt a mix of shyness and surprise, and she couldn’t help but voice her concern, “Charlie, we’ll be driving to the suburbs to pick fruits and vegetables. It’s going to take us half the day! What if we get hungry since we’re not eating anything now?”
Charlie chuckled and said, “You’ll find out once youe with me. I’ve already made all the necessary arrangements.”
Intrigued, ire asked, “Did you set up a meal for us at the farmhouse?”
Leading her out, Charlie smiled and instructed, “Just close your eyes for a moment.”
ire was even more surprised. “Charlie, is it really the right time to ask me to close my eyes?”
“Of course! It’s perfect timing. You’ll see why soon,” Charlie answered with a yful smile.
Resigned but amused, ire closed her eyes and said softly, “Alright, since you’re taking me to pick fruits and vegetables today, I’ll trust you.”
Charlie beamed and said, “No peeking!”
ire replied earnestly, “Don’t worry! I won’t peek! I really love surprises!”
“That’s the spirit!”
Charlie took ire’s gentle hand and led her carefully out of the house and into the yard. To their east, more than an acre of vibrant fruit and vegetable nts had been cultivated.
These nts had been meticulously selected by Zeke, flourishing beautifully without a single insect in sight. The fruits were bright and colorful, while the leaves sparkled with a rich green hue, enhanced by the morning dew.
Once they reached the vegetable garden, Charlie smiled and said, “You can open your eyes now, wife.”
ire questioned in surprise, “Aren’t we supposed to get in the car first? You want me to open my eyes before we even head there?”
“Exactly,” Charlie affirmed with a smile. “You should open your eyes since I’ve asked you to.”
With a grin, ire said, “Alright, I’ll open my eyes now!”
As she slowly opened her eyes, the brilliant morning light from the rising sun dazzled her, momentarily blinding her.
Once she regained her sight, she was astonished to behold an absolutely stunning fruit and vegetable garden right before her!
Her eyes widened in surprise as she gasped and instinctively covered her mouth with both hands.
