As Merry was carried into Chris' arms, the faint smell of cigarette smoke wafted up the tip of her nose.
Although the smell of cigarettes was in her nose, she could smell Chris' body that felt soothing.
At this time, Chris looked down at the little girl's appearance, and looked at her kindly. "Are you okay?"
Merry nodded her head slowly, sniffed, and looked at her toes. "Brother, why are you here?"
"I want to take you home!"
Chris repeated what he had told her at the office, as if bringing her home was his duty.
The little girl only said the longest 'oh' in her entire life, and she didn't know what she was secretly wishing for in her heart.
In short, when she heard Chris came back just for this, she was somewhat disappointed.
Merry licked the corners of her mouth, and purposely said to Chris, "But I don't want to go home."
Chris raised his eyebrows. "Where do you want to go? I'll take you."
Hearing the answer, the little girl's heart recovered again. She looked at Chris knowingly, and cautiously said, "Is that true?"
"Have I ever lied to you?"
At this moment, Chris walked side by side with Merry.
The little girl couldn't help but move forward and follow in his footsteps.
The neon lights around the mall shone, and Merry tucked herself into Chris' arms that night.
It would be great if she and her brother could stay together forever.
Unknowingly, Merry followed Chris to his car on the side of the road.
She stood in front of the car and hesitated for a few seconds. "Brother, I want to drink!"
Chris suddenly stopped near the door just as he was about to open it, his face turning displeased. "What drink?"
Merry trembled. "Drinking wine, Anna just told me that wine is suitable at night so I want to taste it."
Actually, what Anna had told her on the phone was….
"——Merry, don't cry. If you're really sad, just try drinking until you're drunk. With that, I guarantee you can sleep well and forget about your pain a little."
Of course Merry wanted to get rid of the pain in her heart even for a second, she couldn't wait to get drunk!
At this moment, Chris held the car's door with one hand, and put the other in his trouser pocket, looking at Merry's smile.
Anna!
She is Glen's sister, she is always acting up when it comes to Merry!
Chris could understand Merry's true intentions. But considering that she had been crying for two days straight, he couldn't bear to refuse her again. "You really want to taste it?"
Merry nodded happily. "Brother, I've grown, one bottle is not a big problem!"
Merry is not a girl who is weak to alcohol, the previous three beers weren't enough to make her drunk!
Seeing this, Chris pulled the door and scratched his hair. "Get in, I will take you there."
Merry happily got into the car, pulled the seat belt, and faced forward. She then shouted. "Brother, you are the best!"
Chris smiled without saying anything, slammed the door and got into the car.
The little girl stared at his figure without turning her eyes, her heart beating fast.
Her brother is very handsome!
...
Half an hour later, at ten past eight…
Chris went to the West Surabaya area.
Merry still looked out the car's window and saw the surrounding scenery. She averted her eyes because of something. "Brother, shall we go to your house for a drink?"
Merry always knew that Chris lived in West Surabaya.
And even when they had known each other for a long time, she had never been to his house.
At this time, the little girl couldn't help but be a little excited, looking out the window happily, and her previous sadness had long been forgotten.
Chris glanced sideways at her, turned the steering wheel skillfully, and stopped in front of a house soon after.
"Let's go."
Merry happily jumped out of the door, shook the small bag behind her, and followed Chris into the house.
This is where Chris lives alone.
The overall décor of this home was minimalist with gray tones, but overhead lights added a warm color to the spacious living room.
Merry looked around curiously. This was the first time she had set foot in Chris' house.
"Hungry?" Chris threw his coat on the sofa.
Hearing his voice, the little girl rubbed her stomach and nodded vigorously. "Yes!"
Chris stood not far from the living room table, tilted his head and looked into Merry's red eyes. His heart softened as he asked, "Want some pizza?"
"Yes!"
Merry answered every question, her eyes fixed on Chris' figure.
"Okay, just make this as your own home, I'll order some food first."
After that, Chris took his cellphone from his jacket and went to the kitchen.
Merry calmly looked back. As soon as she turned her head, she raised her voice and asked, "Brother, can I go upstairs to have a look?"
Chris looked back at her and smiled. "Just go up, and if you are tired you can lie down for a while. I'll call you when the food arrives."
"Thank you!" The little girl dropped a sentence and got up to run towards the stairs.
Seeing this, Chris didn't think deeply, walked into the kitchen, lit a cigarette, and then called to order food.
On the other hand, after Merry ran to the second floor, she stood up at the top of the stairs and looked down a few times.
After confirming that her brother had entered the kitchen, she confidently started searching for Chris' master bedroom.
She had to take this opportunity to see if there were any women's clothes in his room!
Merry paced around, and immediately came to the door of the master bedroom.
With the door half open, the little girl peeked in, then peeked at the stairs. Three seconds later, she tiptoed in.
As everyone knew, her figure simply disappeared, and on the other side of the corridor, Chris' figure appeared at the top of the stairs.
He was leaning against the wall with an evil smile on the corner of his mouth. The direction of this development was very good, the girl was already curious about his business!
Did the girl think he wouldn't find out about her asking Clifford to investigate him?
The reason why he didn't go to the company during the day was because he got word that someone was secretly investigating him.
Chris initially thought this was another big family business, until a lead pointed to Clifford, so his and Jean's look of surprise at that moment was overwhelming.
Clifford's investigative abilities were naturally strong, but under Jean's information network, it was all for nothing.
After all, Clifford has his skills thanks to the Widjaya family.
...
At this time, Merry had entered the master bedroom, and when she was looking for clues, she did not even notice the figure outside the corridor.
The little girl fumbled on the wall and turned on the light. In a bright bedroom, the first thing that catches her eye is a line of stuffed bunnies of various colors!
