My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 967 - An Unexpected Encounter

Following Anna's directions, Merry looked back along the way, and was surprised to learn that Clifford had also arrived.

She waved to Clifford with a smile. "Wood, thank you!"

Clifford walked forward with a calm expression. "No need to thank me, the young master asked me to protect Miss Anna's safety while in this country."

Oh, it turns out that this also involves Jean!

Anna looked down at that and suggested, "When are you coming home from work? I'm hungry, you want to go to dinner?"

"It'll be over in a minute, I'll go up for a while and then clean up. Wait for me here, I will take you two to a good restaurant!"

Merry was very happy, Anna's arrival seemed like a rainbow that brightened her day, and for a while, her anxiety disappeared.

Anna agreed, and the little girl immediately ran to the company's lobby.

After Merry left, Anna stood with her crackle bag filled with milk tea and Clifford stared at her wide-eyed.

Many pedestrians came and went on the street but the atmosphere between them was very awkward.

Anna's temperament was very similar to Merry's, she didn't like this kind of atmosphere. She shook her head and turned towards Clifford. "Would you like some milk tea?"

Clifford shook his head expressionlessly. "No, thanks."

"Oh ..."

How awkward!

No wonder Merry called him wood, he really looks like wood!

Anna twitched the corners of her mouth, and her thoughts of talking to Clifford were completely lost. The two of them stood silently on the street for a while, and after five minutes, Merry ran out with her bag.

The little girl rushed to Anna's side to take her by the arm as she looked at Clifford and asked. "Wood, do you bring a car?"

Clifford nodded and lifted his chin toward the side road. "The car is on the side of the road."

"Then, let's go to the 70 Strip restaurant, I'm in the mood for steak!"

That way, the group of three got into the car and headed straight for the 70 Strip restaurant.

On the way, Anna brought out her 1/4 spilled milk tea, and when she handed it to Merry, she asked bluntly, "Merry, that day you sounded very sad. What actually happened?"

The little girl took the milk tea, hesitated for a few seconds, and then said, "Let's talk about that later."

As the words fell, Merry remembered one more thing. "By the way, where are you staying while you're here?"

Anna stopped drinking her milk tea, squinting at her. "Where do you think? I'm not very familiar with this country. Would you be willing to let me stay in a hotel?"

Merry smiled. "Of course not! I want you to stay at my house. I want to tell you many things in my heart!"

"Alright then!"

Anna snorted proudly, with a smile on her eyes.

The chats and laughs between these friends are always simple and sincere, and it doesn't feel like the restaurant they're going to is right up front.

Merry and Anna got out of the car one by one.

Clifford followed them not far behind, watching around and ready to protect them.

As they stepped into the lobby, Anna suddenly remembered something. She frowned and bumped into Merry's arm. "Merry, is it okay if I stay at your house? I just remembered that my aunt said she would come to Surabaya in two days. If she finds out that I live in your house, she might scold me for bothering you."

Hearing this, Merry asked nonchalantly. "Bother? There are many rooms in my house. If your aunt comes here, just tell her to stay at my house too, so everyone stays at my house together!"

Anna thought seriously for a moment, then shook her head. "Forget it, don't think about it, I'll just wait for her to come!"

...

Ten minutes later, Merry boldly ordered five meals.

She sat with Anna, and Clifford sat across from her.

The two friends who had not seen each other for a long time seemed to have endless topics to talk about.

Right at this moment, from outside the door of the restaurant, several elegant figures slowly entered.

There were two men and one woman.

The man was upright and handsome, while the woman looked dignified and her aura was not inferior to the men around her.

While Merry was talking and laughing with Anna, she averted her eyes and caught sight of a familiar figure.

Her voice stopped suddenly, and she looked at the person who entered.

No wonder the private room was not open to the public tonight, it was already booked in advance.

At this time, many people in the restaurant noticed this scene and whispered towards the glass room.

Someone said, "Damn it, that room has ten tables and only three people came? Even though the atmosphere in that place is beyond my reach, this is really cheating!"

"Hey, you don't know who they are? They were from the Hartanto family and the Vanders! The man in the dark blue shirt was the second young master of the Hartanto family, and the other was the young master of the Vander family. With their status, reserving an entire room for themselves is nothing surprising."

"Who is she?"

"Anette, daughter of the Vander family, she is a famous businesswoman!"

This discussion drifted to Merry's ears not far from there.

She had met Anette before, and according to her seniority, she needed to address Anette as aunt.

But as she recalled, Anette rarely got together with people from other families.

"What do you see?" At this time, Anna finished speaking and found that Merry had not reacted for a long time. She followed her gaze curiously, and after repeated confirmations, she said in surprise. "Eh, isn't that Chris?"

She remembered Chris!

That man's quarrel with her brother in America was deeply ingrained in her heart!

Merry nodded calmly and said nothing.

She hadn't seen Chris for two days, when she suddenly found out that he also came to 70 Strip to eat, her mood slightly affected.

She has yet to find the answers, so she did not want to let him know that she's in the same building.

By the way, those who ate at this restaurant are the rich.

The high price here is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Someone told a rumor that he overheard. "Wasn't there news a few days ago that the Hartanto family is going to marry their son to the daughter of the Vander family?"

"Damn it, really?"

"Of course that's true. My family has business dealings with the Vanders. The Vanders feel that it's time for 38-year-old Anette to get married. Maybe their purpose for having dinner here is to talk about it!"

"Makes sense!"

It so happened that the visitors who were discussing the Hartanto and Vander family's marriage were sitting at the next table next to Merry.

At this moment, the little girl looked towards the glass room in disbelief, and she happened to see Chris pouring a drink into Anette's glass.

Merry immediately pressed her little mouth tightly, feeling that this sight was very painful.

She knew that her brother was considerate, but she didn't like him paying attention to other people!

The little girl hummed, and when she looked back she looked at Clifford. "Wood, is Chris going to marry Aunt Anette?"

Clifford didn't want to lie to her, then lowered his head nonchalantly. "There are indeed these rumors. But the Hartanto and Van families didn't announce the news, so there's still a chance that perhaps it's not true."

These words made Merry feel more comfortable.

After thinking twice, she suddenly felt a strong crisis!

Don't let those two families announce it!

If the marriage was announced, what would she do?!
