Chapter 1031 An Encounter in the Theater
As Clarissa had been working in the entertainment industry for many years, she was an expert at judging all kinds of performances.
Hence, by just watching the opening, she had spotted some great details.
After all, it was a grand show that took place once every few years.
Not only the actors sung well, but their stage setting and props were also nicely made.
As the show progresses, Clarissa saw a huge stone fell from the sky. At first, the actors were frightened, but then, they became curious. Accompanied by the soothing music, they circled the stone, just like primitive people in ancient times.
Not long later, dark clouds suddenly overtook the sky, and the lightning struck down one after another.
Panicked, everyone quickly looked around for a shelter.
At the same time, a tornado appeared on the screen behind them.
Instantly, several actors were blown away by the tornado, and the stage was shrouded by sand.
Just as everyone was trapped in havoc, the huge rock that stood in the middle of the stage cracked.
With that, the sky started to turn clear again.
Then, under everyone's surprised gaze, a beautiful woman came out from the stone.
She had a beautiful face, and her slim figure was dressed in a colorful brocade dress. When she walked out of the stone, her footsteps were light, and she was emitting a divine brilliance.
Everyone looked at her before turning their gaze to the sunny sky. After realizing something, they immediately ran to her and knelt to worship her.
Seeing that, the woman smiled faintly and twirled her fingers gently. In an instant, green grass started to sprout.
At the sight of the grass, everyone cheered. Then, as everyone begged her, she transformed the desert into mountains and rivers. Besides, she also changed the dry leaves into houses. Afterward, she danced gracefully in the middle of the stage before turning herself into rivers that provided the people water for generations to come.
Feeling grateful, all the people knelt and worshipped her, which thereafter, they began to build the Goddess Palace, and the Goddess became the main faith in Oyraka.
While sitting in the audience's seat, Clarissa watched the show quietly. Although she knew that this story was very likely to be fake, she was still touched.
In fact, she thought that the story was common. Just as they had mentioned, different beliefs existed in different places in the world.
And behind every belief, there was a similar legend that described how an immortal ascended on earth to save the people from suffering.
Subsequently, the people would build a palace and worship the immortal for generations.
Even so, her heart was still deeply moved by this performance. It could be due to the actors' excellent acting skills or the melodious music.
After watching the performance, she no longer disliked the Goddess Palace.
On the contrary, she had developed a different view of this legend.
Sometimes, the story itself was not wrong.
The people, who made use of this story and the gratefulness of the locals, were wrong.
Having that thought, she felt relieved.
At the end of the performance, the audience roared their thunderous applause.
While holding each other's hands, all the actors walked to the stage and bowed.
Anne was also clapping her hands profusely.
With a smile, Clarissa turned to look at her and asked, "How is it? Do you enjoy the show?"
Thrilled, Anne nodded. "Yes!"
Sierra smiled as well. "The last time I saw this show was three years ago, but after watching it for the second time, I'm still touched."
"Yeah, it's pretty good." Clarissa nodded in agreement.
As for Anderson, he didn't have much of a feeling.
After all, he was a man, and he was not as sensitive as women when it came to admiring a show. So, other than thinking that it was a good performance, he wouldn't put much thought into it.
As for Robert, he definitely wouldn't have any thoughts about this show. That was because his mind was preoccupied with his work in the lab. He could easily name seventy to eighty terms about bacteria, but he was completely a layman in admiring arts.
After watching the performance, they got up and prepared to leave with the audience.
However, because it was too crowded, Anne almost fell when she was going down the stairs. As she staggered, she screamed.
Shocked, Clarissa quickly held Anne.
At the same time, another person reached out and held her firmly.
With that, Clarissa raised her head and bumped into a pair of deep and gentle eyes.
"Thank you."
After Anne stood firm, she immediately thanked that man.
Clarissa also smiled and said, "Thanks."
"You're welcome."
With a voice as gentle as the spring breeze, he replied. Then, he looked at them and advised, "There are many people here. So, it's better to keep an eye on the children. If they fall, that would be bad."
Hearing that, Clarissa nodded and quickly held Anne's hand.
After that, he did not say anything more, and all of them continued to walk toward the exit.
Soon, they got out.
Anderson was at the back, carrying Marf. Hence, he didn't see what had just happened.
After all, everything happened in a matter of seconds.
Once he got out, he saw Anne looking around as if she was searching for someone, and his curiosity was evoked. "What are you looking at?"
"I'm looking for that man, Daddy. A man helped me when I almost fell just now. I want to thank him again."
Upon hearing that, Clarissa explained with a smile, "There was a man who helped her just now, but he left. So, Anne, you may stop looking for him now."
Indeed, after searching for a long time, Anne couldn't find him.
And she felt disappointed.
Feeling upset, she lowered her head and pouted. "I just think that he is a nice man, and I wanted to thank him again."
After hearing what she said, Clarissa burst into laughter.
She knew that Anne had grown up and learned how to distinguish people. Besides, that man was kind and good-looking, so she could understand Anne's desire to take a few more glances at him.
Even so, she knew that Anne didn't have any other thoughts. After all, Anne was still young. No matter how mature she was, she was still a child.
Moreover, she acted this way only because she took after Clarissa's character. Usually, Clarissa would be fond of good-looking people.
Thinking about that, Clarissa comforted her, "Well, since we can't find him, let's go home. It's getting late."
Upon hearing her words, Anne nodded her head.
Then, they got into their cars and were about to go home.
At this time, the sky was dark.
Not only was the night cold, but the air was also crisp.
While sitting in the car, Clarissa tidied up Marf's clothes before looking at the beautiful scenery outside the window. She was in high spirits.
Just then, she saw a car parked in front of her car.
As a car couldn't fit all of them, they would usually take separate cars.
