Chapter 140 She Had Got Married
Clarissa's heart softened immediately.
When she looked at the old lady again, she found that she was looking at her with a pleading face. How could she bear to refuse them?
Finally, Clarissa concealed the appointment she made in the evening, and drove them to a parent-child restaurant in the downtown area.
This parent-child restaurant was of a warm style, and Clarissa came here for the first time.
In addition to them, many parents brought their children to eat here.
The dining tables was on one side, and the other side was decorated as a small playground.
After ordering the meal, Clarissa encouraged Anne to play with the children over there because they had to wait for the meal to be served.
But Anne shook her head and looked at the children playing over there with a look of disgust and alert.
Clarissa found that although Anne looked very enthusiastic on the surface, she had an indifferent character.
She wondered what her parents would be like.
But Anne was willing to be close to her when she first met her, which made Clarissa have a strange feeling in her heart.
"Girl, Anne really likes you. She doesn't like to be close to strangers. Even when she is at home, except for the closest ones, she rarely let outsiders approach her. But she liked you very much when she first saw you, which shows that you two are really fated."
The old lady said this slowly with her eyes and face full of smiles.
Clarissa also smiled. She turned to look at Anne and gently touched her hair.
"Yes, I think so, too, and I also like her."
Hearing her words, Anne squinted her eyes at her happily, like a coquettish kitten.
Clarissa's heart melted because she was so cute!
The old lady smiled, "Speaking of this, you have helped us twice, but I don't even know your name!"
"My name is Clarissa Chapman."
"Oh, that's a nice name. Miss Chapman, you look quite young. Do you have a boyfriend?"
Clarissa smiled.
"I've got married."
"What?"
The old lady looked very surprised, and then smiled, "That's reasonable. There must be many men who like such an excellent girl like you! I just don't know who is so lucky enough to marry you."
Clarissa didn't want to talk much about Anderson with her, so she just said with a smile, "He is very good. It's my luck to marry him."
"No, I think your words and movements are so elegant, and you look noble and beautiful. Maybe he doesn't even deserve to be with you."
Clarissa laughed, but didn't say anything else.
The meal was served quickly. Clarissa didn't like to talk while eating, but the old lady kept chatting with her, so she had to reply to her while eating.
"Miss Chapman, since you're so beautiful, your husband must be very nice to you! Are you planning to have a child?"
Clarissa almost got choked by the rice in her mouth. She drank some water and replied, "I don't have such a plan for the time-being."
"I see!"
Clarissa didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that the old lady looked somewhat worried after she answered this question.
She felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, and quickly changed the subject.
"By the way, did you come to travel in Visstead with Anne? Are there any other relatives and friends with you?"
She had heard from Anne that she and her great grandma came to Visstead for a trip.
The old lady shook her head, "No, just the two of us."
Clarissa frowned subconsciously.
"Excuse me for what I am going to say. Although I don't know Anne's father, he actually allowed you to travel with Anne alone at your age and he is really careless. What if any accidents happen?"
The old lady explained with a smile in a hurry.
"No, we're very careful, and there are always many good people in this world. If we really get into trouble, we can ask for help. Look, and we meet you this time!"
Looking at the old lady's optimistic face, Clarissa moved her lips and didn't say anything.
She had seen too many terrible things in this world, but she didn't want to say those things in front of Anne.
The old lady seemed to know what she was thinking and sighed helplessly.
"In fact, I also want her father to take her out, but her father is very busy at work, and she wants to come out to play, so I could only take her out."
Clarissa smiled, and said considerately, "You're a nice great grandma. But you should pay more attention to Anne next time. She is still young. If she gets lost again and meets a gangster, it will be troublesome."
The old lady nodded repeatedly, "I know. Thanks for reminding me."
Clarissa didn't say anything more, and the three of them ate quickly.
After eating, the old lady took the initiative to pay the bill.
But after a long while, she didn't take out any money. Moreover, her expression changed.
"Oh! My wallet seems to be lost!"
Clarissa's expression also changed slightly.
"Do you know when you lost it?"
The old lady shook her head.
They walked back to the seats and looked for the wallet, but did not find it. The old lady said awkwardly, "I'm so sorry. I originally wanted to treat you to a meal to thank you, but I lost my wallet. I..."
Clarissa said, "It's okay. It's just a meal. I'll pay the bill."
As she said this, she asked the waiter to use her card to pay the bill.
Then she asked with concern, "Do you need me to go to the police station with you? There should be important cards in your wallet! In this case, I'm afraid that we should report the loss of the card first, so as to avoid unnecessary losses."
The old lady waved her hand.
"There's no need, and there is only some change in it. All my cards are in the hotel! There is nothing important, so there is no need to call the police."
Seeing this, Clarissa couldn't force her and nodded.
"It's getting late. Let me take you back to the hotel."
"Okay, thank you very much, Miss Chapman."
Clarissa drove them back to the hotel where they lived.
Clarissa was surprised to find that they were actually living in the most luxurious five-star hotel in Visstead.
She heard from the old lady that Anne's father was very busy at work, and he didn't even have time to take Anne out for travel, and she thought that Anne had no mother.
She subconsciously thought that Anne's father was a person who was struggling to make a living, but it seemed that she was wrong, because the hotel they lived was so luxurious.
But she didn't think too much. After all, when an old lady and a child came out to play, safety was the most important thing, so it was not strange for them to live in such a high-end hotel.
Clarissa sent them in. But she didn't expect herself to be stopped by the hotel staff as soon as she walked to the door.
