My Supermodel Wife

Ten minutes later, Merry, who was leaning back in her chair, accidentally received a call from Anna.

It's nearly six o'clock.

Seeing her answer the phone, Chris slowed down.

On the phone, Anna asked where she was first. After learning that the little girl was on her way home, she asked her to go to the 70s Strip because she wanted to eat out with her.

Merry held the phone for a few seconds, and then immediately agreed. "Then I will go there now, see you later!"

Hanging up the phone, the little girl looked at Chris and said with a smile. "Brother, Anna invited me to eat, can you take me to the 70 Strip?"

Chris glanced at his watch, looked to the side. "Who else is there besides her?"

"Wood! He is now responsible for Anna's safety in Surabaya." Merry winked and suggested. "Brother, why don't you come too? After all, we are acquaintances, and you can send me home after dinner."

Chris didn't speak, but raised his hand again. He then calculated the time carefully in his head.

He had an appointment with Alex in the evening, and if he went there after dinner with the little girl, he was worried that it would be late.

In this way, Chris raised his hand and rubbed the top of her head. "I can't go, let Clifford send you back after dinner, and call me if you need anything."

With Clifford, Chris didn't have to worry about the girl's safety.

...

Around half past seven, the car was parked near the entrance of the restaurant.

Chris looked through the car's window and happened to see Clifford standing in the street waiting.

At this moment, Merry unbuckled the seat belt and shouted to Clifford from the half-open window.

She looked back at Chris, her little body rushed forward, kissed his cheek, and then quickly jumped out of the car.

The scene was clearly captured by Clifford, who stood not far from the car.

His face was flat as usual, as if he hadn't noticed anything out of the ordinary.

In his field of vision, Merry jumped at him with glee, and the coat on her shoulders shook with her movement.

Although she was still as lively and beautiful as before, some things had changed.

Her eyes still looked innocent, but there's a lot of shyness and charm in that little girl's smile that he's never seen before.

Clifford stared at her in silence, until he heard the sound of the car's door being opened again. The man then looked at the car.

At that moment, Chris got out of the car and walked until he was standing in front of him. Before Clifford could speak, he said admonishingly, "I have an appointment tonight, so I won't be eating with you guys. Merry caught a cold this morning, her fever had just gone down. After eating, remind her to take her medicine. The medicine is in her bag."

Clifford nodded lightly. "Okay, I'll keep that in mind."

Chris looked deeply at Clifford, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder. "Thank you."

"Young master Chris, be careful on the road." Clifford nodded, still respectful.

At this moment, Merry, who had been left frozen to the side, ran towards them. "Brother, I will remember to take the medicine, so don't worry. Wood, is Anna already inside? Come on, don't let her wait too long!"

Merry urged Clifford to walk towards the lobby of the restaurant. During that period, she didn't forget to turn and wave to Chris.

Standing in place, Chris saw her happy figure, shook his head and laughed, and sighed as he returned to the car.

He knew that Clifford had always liked his little girl, and now that he had confirmed the relationship, he no longer had to be wary of him like before.

He couldn't stop anyone from liking anyone.

And in this competition, someone is indeed destined to lose. To put it simply, Chris came out victorious, but that didn't mean Clifford wasn't good enough.

Besides, Merry treated Clifford as a good friend.

Chris was also happy to see this relationship.

... 

After Chris left, Clifford took Merry with him to the restaurant.

Currently, there are not many people in the restaurant. And with soothing music flowing quietly, the atmosphere was warm and calm.

The two slowly walked towards the chair where Anna was. Before they approached, Merry's face immediately sank. "Why is that person also here?!"

Clifford stepped up and looked at her in disbelief. Sure enough, there was a woman beside Anna.

After seeing this, Clifford looked to the side and asked in a deep voice, "Do you know her?"

Merry nodded angrily, looking Clifford in the eye, as if a little displeased. "Was she here before?"

Anna said that the three of them were going to have dinner, but why did Emma come too?!

What did this uninvited guest do here!

Clifford swallowed his throat blankly, then shook his head and whispered, "She wasn't here before."

He had never seen Emma before, and he didn't know the stories behind the figure.

But through Merry's reaction, Clifford could easily see her reluctance.

It was rare for Merry to feel so disgusted with someone.

Just as Clifford was thinking of taking her out of the restaurant, Anna had already seen them.

"Merry, I'm here!"

Anna greeted, and even though Merry had a lot of complaints in her heart, she could only walk with a grin.

At this moment, Merry tugged at the corners of her mouth, pulling Clifford to sit beside her.

The four people faced each other, but no one spoke, and the atmosphere was a bit stiff.

Anna was worried about Merry being frightened by her aunt's too serious face. She turned her head to look, and broke the silence first, "Merry, what a coincidence! My aunt is also eating here tonight."

Emma smiled and nodded. Seeing Merry's gloomy expression, she said, "Anna told me that my face was too tense yesterday and I might scare you. Merry, I didn't mean anything. And maybe when we first met, I didn't leave a very good impression on you... So to make amends, I'll pay for tonight's dinner. How about it?"

Emma mentioned the word 'amends' again, and this made Merry remember what she had said yesterday.

She closed the coat over her shoulders and sniffed. "There's no need. Besides… I'm afraid it's not your face that's too serious."

While Merry was talking, she didn't even look at Emma.

She wrapped herself in Chris's coat and smelled the familiar scent, which made her feel good.

Clifford on the side looked at Emma with a deep gaze, sitting as steady as a mountain, and added a bit of pressure to Emma.

Anna heard this incoherent conversation.

She looked left and right, clearly seeing Merry's discomfort. She scratched her head and looked at Emma with a smile. "Auntie, since Merry said there's no need, would you like to eat with your friends? Don't delay your business just because of us, we're fine."

When Anna finished speaking and was about to walk her aunt away, Emma held her hand in one hand. 

"It's okay Anna, I'll have dinner with you guys tonight. They're just some insignificant friends after all. I've asked my assistant to sort the matters out.. Since we haven't seen each other for a long time, at least I want to accompany you to dinner today."
