Chapter 169: You’re beautiful, just like that day
“Please let go of me.” Anyway, it is known, there is no need to pretend, Merry then shake off Fred.
Because of knowing Merry’s identity, Fred is not good to hold on to people anymore, see her struggle away, also did not tug again, just look at Albert, fortunately Elena is smart enough to come forward and said: “Hello, I’m Elena, we all heard about you from Albert, it’s not easy to meet, can we sit down and talk? ”
Perhaps because the same woman, Merry to Elena’s hostility is much less, and also nodded lightly.
Albert sighed with relief, fortunately Elena was there, otherwise I do not know what would have been made, this will, he is also much better, now he can walk normally, he came to Merry.
“Merry, I’m sorry, I apologize to you for my rudeness earlier.” Albert very gentlemanly came forward to apologize, this time Albert is so charming, Merry actually was a little dumbfounded.
Even Fred did not expect, looking at Albert, he suddenly smiled, perhaps this is the difference between him and Albert, Albert may seem unrestrained, in fact, he is a real gentleman, there are mistakes to change, can bend and stretch, but also because of this, Albert is particularly popular.
“If you had been like this earlier wouldn’t it have been okay.” Merry murmured, passionately holding Elena’s arm, two women, surprisingly left behind two men, arm in arm shopping, seemingly forgetting what they said before, to find a place to talk slowly.
The two bitter men followed the two women, to say the strange, Elena and Fred together shopping, just shopping, and did not buy anything, but now, two women, all the way to shop all the way to sell.
Fred looked at Albert, both hands were empty, but the two men were grinning, smiling like they had just eaten pistachios.
“Albert, it looks like there’s hope for you, but are you sure, she’s not married?” As the two women went to the fitting room, the two men who were so happy they couldn’t even remember their last names talked.
“No, from the tone of Merry’s voice absolutely not.” Albert recalled the situation at the cafe and was certain.
“But didn’t your son say she was married?”
“That bastard, he also said that Merry went on a honeymoon? I’ll see him tomorrow and beat him up again. The first time he saw Dad, he didn’t say a word of truth, I don’t know who he learned from.” If he hadn’t said Merry was married, he would have been in the best shape to see Merry instead of the way he is now.
“It seems that your son can’t be trusted, I guess it’s just to screw you as a father.” Fred stifled a laugh, compared to his, Jeffery and Jack were counted as well behaved, he was very satisfied.
“No wonder now everywhere said pit father, that boy is really born to pit father.” Although the mouth said so, but Albert in front of his son can not say so, not only that, in the future in front of his son he also have to pay attention to the words, in addition, he wants to renew the old relationship with Merry, but also need the boy to help.
“Don’t let her hear this, although your son said your son pit, but also because of him, you met, you have to think about it, maybe your son can help you a lot.” Fred reminded Albert based on his experience.
“Yeah, who let him be my son, I’ll make a call and have him come over, just in time to have dinner together tonight.” Albert said, with pride in his brow.
Albert called his son and said he had met Merry on the street and that it was the right time to have a family reunion dinner together tonight, but to his surprise Bruce said he was too busy to go.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
“Son, today is the reunion of mommy and daddy after ten years, let’s celebrate together as a family, isn’t it good?” Albert coaxed his son.
“Dad, you and mommy have been separated for ten years, this reunion must have a lot to say, dad I will not bother you, besides, I have been away for too long, I also need to accompany my girlfriend.” Bruce giggled on the other end of the phone.
“You want to spend time with your girlfriend, Bruce, how old are you? You dare to have a girlfriend–” Albert stood up excitedly, his son had a girlfriend, what kind of talk is this, a doll not yet ten years old, had a girlfriend, typical of the heavy sex.
“Albert, calm down, Elena and Merry came out.” Seeing Elena and Merry come out from the fitting room, Fred hurriedly reminded Albert.
“Honey, you are beautiful.” After saying that, Fred immediately went forward and kissed Elena on the cheek and said.
“That there is, Merry is prettier, especially with her hair down, pretty as can be, not at all like a mother of a ten year old.” Elena said with great envy.
Although they were about the same age now, Merry looked eye-catching and was the type that would shine everywhere.
“Silly, you are unique in my heart, and I think Albert-” Fred looked up at Albert and saw him and Merry looking at each other with eyes that seemed to have no outsiders in them anymore.
“Shh–Fred, let’s go first.” Elena went back to change her clothes, came out to see Fred still staring there, pulled him and said.
“Merry, you’re beautiful, just like that day.”
Ten years ago
“Merry, when do you get off work?” Fred, who was off duty, stood in front of the fast food restaurant and watched Merry, who was busy at the counter, keep looking at her watch.
“Not so soon, it’s not until three o’clock?” Merry smiled.
Ten years ago, Albert came here for lunch and met her. At that time, she was about to go out to deliver the food, and Albert was in a hurry to run this way because he was in a hurry, and they bumped into each other, and half of the fast food box in Merry’s hand fell to the ground, and the other half spilled onto Albert.
At that time, Merry was scared to death because Albert was wearing a brand name and she was just a small working girl, she could not afford to pay for Albert’s expensive brand name.
But Albert did not blame her at that time, but asked if there was a painful bump. Not only that, he also paid for all the fast food, saving Merry from the crisis of being fired.
And after that day, every day he will come here to eat, initially he just eat while quietly watching Merry, a week later, Albert took the initiative to date Merry.
Merry, who was in her teenage years, was easily attracted by Albert’s handsome appearance and gentlemanly demeanor, and with Albert’s initiative, she nodded her head and readily agreed.
From that day onwards, they kept dating, but Merry never asked Albert about his situation, but simply enjoyed the sweetness of their first love.
“Merry, can you take the day off, I’ll take you to a fun place.” Albert mysteriously said to Merry behind the dining table.
Merry looked at the restaurant with some hesitation, but when she saw Albert’s expectant eyes, she still nodded her head lightly and then asked the manager for leave.
“Albert, where are you taking me?” Out of the restaurant, Merry was a little embarrassed, every time she was with Albert, she was especially formal, always felt she was an ugly duckling, not worthy of Albert, the more Albert didn’t care, the more pressure she had in her heart.
“Confidential, get in the car, if you dilly-dally, you’ll miss it.” Albert urged.
“Albert, I-have you ever felt awkward about us being together.” Merry bowed her head, these days, the female colleagues in the restaurant are advising her to stop dreaming, Albert and they are not from the same world, even she herself feels so.
“How can it be, Merry, what are you thinking? Boys and girls will fall in love and get married when they reach a certain age, what’s so weird about that.” Albert said as he drove.
“There is, it’s like the prince and Cinderella, they’re from different worlds, how can they be together.” Merry twisted her hands together and whispered.
“Little fool, who says it’s not the same world, doesn’t the prince live on Earth? What’s more, the prince and Cinderella ended up together, ah, little fool, what are you worried about?” Albert smiled, it was because he sensed Merry’s squirm these days that he decided to take her to that place.
“But that’s a fairy tale, in the real world there are no fairy tales, Albert, let’s – let’s break up.” Merry finished biting her lips tightly, she also couldn’t let go, but everyone said it’s better to break off earlier than later, at this time, it’s necessary to cut off the mess quickly, they can’t be happy.
Some colleagues even gossiped about Albert’s family history, he is actually the heir of The Barrett Group, I heard that their family has done a lot, from pharmaceuticals to hospitals, and then medical equipment, and even property development, all have done, that is, outside the often said rich people, the rich family, while she is an ugly duckling, she does not even know her parents, she is an orphan, and because of that, she was working this summer to earn her own tuition.
The ear-splitting sound of the brakes scared the pedestrians on the street, and Merry’s body bounced forward because of inertia.
The car was suffocating, Albert did not immediately speak, Merry bit her lip, did not know what to spill and looked at he own legs.
“What did you just say?” It was a long time before Albert asked through clenched teeth.
“, I didn’t say anything.” Hearing Albert’s different voice, Merry was frightened and whispered in defense.
“Merry, I don’t want to hear what I just said again, you are my girlfriend, you will be my wife later, we will be together.” Albert turned the car off, turned around, tugged Merry into his arms and said.
“will you really marry me?” Merry looked up from Albert’s chest, feeling like she was dreaming, she was only seventeen, marriage, felt so far away.
“Of course, I can swear to God, I Albert will only love once in my life, and only one, and that person is Merry, so from now on, no more such words from you, and when you are old enough to get married, we will get a license.” Albert promised.
“But–”
“Merry, do you think I’m lying to you?” Albert pressed against Merry’s forehead and said seriously.
