Chapter 683: Chapter 632: I Won’t Forget You Chapter 683: Chapter 632: I Won’t Forget You The lights in the villa’s hall dimmed.

The guests no longer danced but waited quietly, surrounding the birthday star, Robert Griffith.

A faint light shone from the other end of the room, and Curtis personally brought out a nine-tier birthday cake, topped with a single birthday candle.

“Grandpa, happy birthday!” Edward Smith pushed the cake in front of him, smiling his wishes.

Hailey walked over to Robert, affectionately holding his arm and boasting, “Grandpa, do you know? Mom spent an entire day making this cake! And I took part in it too. I arranged the strawberries on the cake, one by one! Aren’t they neat? Aren’t they beautiful?”

“No wonder it looks a bit strange since you arranged it,” Robert said with feigned toughness, though he was actually very happy.

“What? Where is it strange?!” Hailey grumbled.

At this moment, the music in the hall suddenly stopped, causing astonished gasps from the crowd.

Soon after, a pleasant harmonica melody began to play.

It was the distinct sound of a harmonica, melodious and captivating.

The song was “Ode to Joy.”

A beam of light shone down, illuminating the woman playing the harmonica.

Cherish Turner stood in a secluded corner, silently playing the harmonica with both hands. All eyes were on her, making her somewhat nervous as she tried to relax. She had been practicing this song for a long time. She had learned it intermittently, stopped touching the harmonica for a while, and had somewhat forgotten it. She didn’t have natural music talent, so her progress was rather slow.

“Dingdingdong—” Accompanied by the harmonica, piano music soon joined in.

Another beam of light shone down, illuminating the grand piano at the other end of the hall.

The crowd turned to look, all astonished.

Cherish also looked up at the same time, and when she saw the person playing the piano, she couldn’t help but feel a sudden burst of surprise and happiness.

William Griffith was sitting at the piano bench, striking a handsome pose, performing the song with her.

Her harmonica, his piano, together they played a heart-stirring melody.

William turned his head slightly and looked at her as well.

As she looked into his deep eyes, she gradually lost her nervousness.

Cherish’s emotions surged, as she had secretly fantasized about such a scene before. If one day, he could perform a duet with her. But at that time, she could only bury this idea in her heart. She smiled at him and continued to play, seemingly oblivious to the people around her, as the room became eerily quiet. It was as if everyone else didn’t exist, and they were each the only person in each other’s worlds.

During the lovely music, Edward Smith kissed Hailey.

Cherish watched quietly, deep in thought.

In the end, Sam Turner hadn’t been able to be together with Hailey, which left her feeling really melancholic. Sam had gone abroad, and she knew that there was too much here for him that he couldn’t let go but had to.

In this city, he would be in pain because of Hailey.

“What are you thinking?” William’s deep voice came from behind her, his hands encircling her as he pulled her into his embrace.

Cherish couldn’t help but ask, “William, what if one day, I forget you? What would you do?”

With a faint voice, he tightened his arms around her and said, “It’s enough that I remember you.”

Cherish, don’t you remember? You’ve forgotten me once already, and I remembered you then. So, if you forget me again in the future, I will still remember you, stay by your side, and wait for you to slowly remember me.

“And if you are the one to forget me?” She looked back at him, not daring to imagine.

“Cherish,” he lowered his head, kissed her red lips, and whispered amidst the lingering kiss, “That day will never come.”

Boom——

Fireworks suddenly lit up the night sky, and everyone headed to the balcony to watch the display.
