Chapter 955 - Please Help Me!
"Oh..." Merry replied, puffing her cheeks, and fell silent.
The restaurant served the food very quickly. While eating, the little girl ate silently, but her little brain was spinning rapidly.
She kind of hated the way she and Chris were right now.
In other words, Chris seemed to put some distance between them and she couldn't enter his world.
Merry carefully remembered the past, and no matter what she did, this man in front of her always supported her.
But if she recalled it in detail, she had almost no understanding of Chris.
This older brother knew everything about her, but she knew almost nothing about him.
This feeling made Merry instantly annoyed.
Even the roasted meat in her mouth had no taste anymore!
At this time, Chris, who was on the other hand, only ate some stir-fried vegetables, and then continued to stare at Merry.
The two of them were indeed very close, but because of the difference in age and experience, they were silent with their own thoughts.
In Chris' eyes, this little girl only needed to be protected by him.
In Merry's view, she wanted to understand everything about Chris Hartanto.
So, in this state of mind, Merry had another idea what to do with the uneasiness in her heart.
...
After eating, Chris sent her back to the company and went straight to the parking lot.
Merry returned to his office, and Abhi, another of Chris' assistants, came in.
Holding some thick documents in his hands, he placed them on the table, then he said politely, "Merry, these are documents that need to be checked and rearranged, so make sure these documents are in order. The president asked me to teach you about this job, so get used to it because you will be doing it alone in the future."
"Okay, thank you sir."
Merry took the document in her hand enthusiastically, and then listened to Abhi's explanation with great interest.
Throughout the afternoon, the little girl treated the content of this new job very strictly, and Abhi did not hesitate to teach her relevant knowledge.
In an instant, it was already five in the afternoon.
After Merry reviewed the final documents, she picked up her phone and started texting.
Merry : Hey, are you here?
The message was answered within seconds.
Clifford : I'm downstairs.
As soon as Merry saw the answer, she immediately typed.
Merry : I'll be down soon!
In less than five minutes, the little girl left her office cubicle with her backpack.
Abhi and other assistants look towards the elevator with stunned faces.
It's great being the president's partner, she can come home on time! They somewhat feel envious and jealous.
...
Merry dashed out of the corporate lobby in an instant. Since it was time to go home, people also started to scatter outside.
The little girl tightly gripped the straps of her bag and looked around. She caught a glimpse of a tall figure standing in front of the exit of the building.
"Hey!"
Merry shouted, stood still and waved as she jumped.
As the sun went down, Clifford saw a petite figure running towards him with a faint smile on his lips.
Merry rushed to him, raised her hand and punched him in the shoulder with her small fist. "Wood, we haven't seen each other for a long time, do you keep thinking about me?"
Clifford looked at her intently, nodding his head in response.
The little girl was used to Clifford who rarely spoke. After looking around, she pointed to the coffee shop in front, and said, "Let's have some coffee inside, I need you to help me with something and you can't refuse!"
Clifford said 'um' in return. As the two headed to the coffee shop together, a black car slowly pulled up on the side of the road not far behind them.
… ...
Merry greeted the waiter and ordered two cappuccinos, they both then sat down by the glass window.
She took off her backpack and put it on the chair beside him. Then she opened her mouth and looked at Clifford. "Oh, I forgot to bring your present."
Clifford sat up straight and looked at her. He shook his head as he remained silent.
The little girl was a little irritated, scratched her ear and mumbled, "I didn't expect to see you today. You know, I carry your gifts with me all the time!"
At this moment, Clifford looked at Merry with a calm expression. He didn't want this girl to blame herself too much so he ended up changing the topic. "What can I do for you?"
"Oh, right!" After hearing the voice, Merry leaned forward on the table, whispering, "Can you help me investigate Chris?"
"Young master Chris?" Clifford's calm eyes looked surprised.
Merry nodded emphatically. "Yes, just investigate him."
After saying that, the little girl carefully observed Clifford's expression. Seeing that he didn't answer, she hesitantly said. "Is it not possible? If you don't want to do it, it's fine, but please show me a private detective's office."
Clifford shook his head subconsciously, and when he looked at Merry, he asked stubbornly, "Why do you want to investigate Young Master Chris?"
Did she suspect him, or…
At this moment, Merry became slightly sullen. "There is no particular reason. I just want to know more about him. Can you help me?"
"Okay!"
Clifford promised in a low voice. Even though he understood the risk, he would still do it for Merry.
After hearing this, Merry heaved a sigh of relief, and smiled at the corners of her eyebrows and eyes. "I know you are the best! Then please investigate what happened to him recently. I always thought that he had been in trouble lately, I always asked him but he wouldn't answer!"
Merry always thought of Clifford as a friend and it never changed from the beginning to the end!
Clifford instantly realized the special attention Merry had for Chris, and when he lowered his eyelids, he tried to cover up the disappointment in his eyes.
Apparently, there were several things that made his human heart tremble. The atmosphere at the table was awkward for a few seconds.
But Merry immediately said happily again, "I really thank you for your help, next time I will take you when Anna and I go skiing in Switzerland! It's a really fun place! Ah, you remember Anna, don't you? You met her in America."
He remembers everyone and everything related to her very clearly.
Upon seeing this, Merry becomes even more excited, and even begins to imagine meeting Anna.
After the cup of coffee was half finished, Merry asked to go home.
After Clifford agreed, both of them left the cafe.
Just opening the exit, a man in a black suit walked straight towards them. The
clothes of the other party made Clifford understand, it was standard equipment for bodyguards in some large families.
Merry didn't pay attention to the other party. While she was still busy with her cell phone, the man said, "Miss Merry!"
The little girl lifted her head blankly. "Huh?"
At the same time, Clifford rushed forward. He caught the other party's wrist and slammed it against the wall.
The bodyguard's arm was tightly clamped. When he rolled his eyes, he stared blankly at Clifford.. "Master Clifford, we are on the same team, please don't hurt me."
