My Supermodel Wife-Chapter 978 - Annas Worries
After half an hour, Chris saw that Merry's mood had returned better.
But Chris didn't dare to enter the main house. After seeing the little girl enter the door, he got into the car and left the Hiroshi family residence. ƒ𝘳𝗲𝑒𝒘𝐞𝚋𝚗𝐨v𝘦l.𝒄o𝐦
Merry returned to the living room and glanced inside.
The room looked dim, Samuel wasn't there, and only Erika was standing in front of the window with her arms around her shoulders.
Merry cried, and ran to her. "Mom! Are you okay?"
The little girl stood beside Erika, tilted her head and looked at her. This little girl's expression was slightly depressed and felt a little hurt when she saw her mother.
At this moment, Erika pulled the corner of her mouth and smiled widely. "I'm fine, you don't have to worry." After saying that, she looked back again. Seeing that Chris wasn't there, she asked. "Where's Chris?"
"He said he had a business in his company, so he left first!"
After saying that, Merry bit the corner of her mouth. She had a lot to say to Erika in her heart.
Especially after seeing her forced smile, the little girl frowned and hugged her, her voice gently soothing. "Mom, you are my only mother, I don't care about anyone else. Nobody can replace you!"
Erika's empty heart was flooded by Merry's touching words. 𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮
Her eyes gradually became wet, and she gently caressed the little girl's cheek, trying to hold back the tears from falling, and said softly. "Merry, thank you for protecting me. I am fine, don't worry. Anna is still waiting for you upstairs. Tell her to come down for dinner. I have made your favorite roast beef ribs, so eat a lot of it."
Merry vaguely felt that something was wrong with Erika, but she only thought she was exhausted by today's drama.
The little girl was very sensitive and didn't speak anymore. After a few more words to comfort her, she rushed upstairs.
In front of the living room's window, Erika looked at Merry who was running, sighed softly, and her drooping eyelids filled with bitterness.
'Merry, take care of yourself in the future….'
...
In the bedroom, Anna paced anxiously.
More than an hour had passed, but Merry had not visited her.
Anna did not know what had been going on downstairs all this time.
But she was well aware that her aunt seemed to know Merry's father.
In the evening, her aunt came uninvited.
Although she had greeted her before, she still felt that all of this was rather absurd.
But she didn't think that Merry's father would behave so strangely once her aunt stepped inside the house.
As Anna recalled, Samuel suddenly walked in front of her aunt, grabbed her with one hand, and asked quickly, "Emma! You are Emma, ??right?!"
Anna felt so ridiculous seeing this scene!
Just then, the teacup in her aunt's hand immediately fell to the ground.
After that, she was asked by Merry's father to return to her room and wait a while.
Who would have thought it would take more than an hour then?
Not long ago, she received a message from her bodyguard, saying that her aunt had to go home first because she had something to do.
Seeing this news, Anna was not relieved, but became more anxious.
She hoped that her aunt's arrival would not cause trouble for the Hiroshi family as well as Merry.
Otherwise, she would feel very guilty!
At this time, the anxious Anna suddenly heard the door open behind her.
She looked back eagerly, and when she saw Merry, she rushed forward. "Hey, are you okay?"
The little girl's emotions came and went quickly, and when she saw Anna's figure in the room, she shook her head innocently. "I'm fine!"
"You almost scared me to death!" Anna patted her chest in relief.
Merry looked at her nervously, her eyes shining brightly, and she pulled her to sit by the bed. "Anna, I want to ask you something!"
It was rare for Anna to see Merry's serious face. She immediately nodded solemnly. "Merry, as long as I know it, I will answer you!"
After hearing this, Merry thought for a few seconds before asking. "Can you tell me about your aunt?"
"Have you met her?" Anna was surprised to see her nod, she then answered honestly. "She is my father's sister, she has been living in Parma all this time."
After the words fell, Merry pursed her small mouth. "Has she been to Indonesia before? And… what does she usually do?"
Anna looked seriously, and then said honestly, "I don't think she ever left Parma, but I don't know if she had visited here when I wasn't born. Usually, my aunt is busy at work because she has a company that she built herself. This time, she also visited Indonesia because she had a business need."
Merry listened to Anna's explanation and was a little surprised. "Is she married?"
Anna nodded firmly. "Of course she is, my aunt is already forty years old, how could she not be married? Not only that, she already has a child!"
Merry opened her mouth slightly, and narrowed her eyes deeply.
She was married and had a child, but she still came here to make up for the time she lost with her daughter?!
This is too unreasonable!
Merry patted her thigh, took off her sandals, and sat cross-legged on the side bed, and kept asking "Did she ever tell you about me or my father?"
Anna was also very smart. As Merry asked more and more, she also faintly felt that something was odd.
She blinked and shook her head seriously. "She's never done it, but... She's asked about you before. My aunt is very kind to me. At that time, I thought she was worried about my friendship so I told her about you. Merry, what's wrong? Does my aunt know your father? Do you know her too?"
Merry looked at Anna's worried look, and wanted to tell the truth, but was also worried about Anna's reaction.
The little girl argued with herself over and over again, and was still selectively hiding some facts. "I don't know her, but…. My father does know her.
"Actually, nothing happened, I just wanted to know. Besides, your aunt seems to be about the same age as my mother. But in my opinion... your aunt seems aloof and not easy to talk to."
After speaking, Merry lowered her eyes and fiddled with her pants.
She didn't want to hide it from Anna, but she didn't know how to tell her about the things that happened today.
Before she found out about Emma's goal, she didn't want Anna to worry.
At this moment, Anna did not notice the guilt buried deep in Merry's eyes, and she breathed a sigh of relief. "It turns out that your aunt and your father really know each other. I was scared to death, I thought something was wrong. No wonder my aunt suddenly said to me that she wanted to visit your house, it turned out that your father was an old acquaintance after all."
"Merry, did my aunt scare you with her serious face?! Don't be afraid, actually my aunt is very kind. Maybe her face looked scary because she was thinking about her child's illness, so maybe her face was a little gloomy. But other than that, it should be fine."
Anna doesn't understand the real story, so she wants to help get rid of her aunt's bad image in her friend's eyes.. She told some secrets that should not be known to outsiders in the hope that Merry could understand her aunt's condition.
