Chris shook his head slightly, sighed, and slowly bowed directly towards the table, squatting on one leg in front of Merry.
At this time, the little girl was sitting in front of the swivel chair, letting Chris pull the armrest and bring her closer.
The atmosphere in the booth was filled with oppressive silence.
After a long time, Chris took her little hand and rubbed it on his palm, his voice hoarse. "Merry, do you really understand all this? We're quite different in age, are you really sure about this choice of yours?"
Chris was happy with Merry's decision to spend her life with him. But because of his responsibility as the older person, there were a few things he needed to clarify.
Merry rarely saw Chris's serious attitude, when she was about to answer, she saw Chris shake his head and say, "Don't be in a hurry to answer it. Merry, before today, I was the person you considered as a big brother. If you really decide you want to be with me, then I'll never be your big brother again."
"Do you know what it means to be with me? It means I won't treat you as a child anymore, but a woman. In the middle of our relationship, maybe I will want more than just a hug or holding hands. Are you really ready to give yourself to me?"
These words came from the bottom of Chris' heart, a sincerity that he would only express at that moment.
Chris wanted Merry, but he didn't want this little girl to regret it later.
He had to let this little girl clearly understand his true feelings.
After all, Merry is still young and the future surely holds a great deal of experiences for her.
If one day she suddenly regrets her choice, or meets a better man, or if she wants to run away, what should Chris do?!
The human heart cannot remain the same.
Therefore, he patiently admitted everything before Merry, explaining that he did not want the girl to regret her choice someday.
At this time, Merry's big eyes looked at Chris with calmness. The corners of her mouth writhing twice, and both of her shoulders down. "Brother, don't you believe me?"
"I trust you, but I also have responsibilities as an adult. Have you ever thought that I was eleven years older than you, and that when you were thirty, I would be forty-one? you…."
"Brother, stop!" At this time, Merry suddenly covered Chris' mouth and interrupted his long conversation.
She admitted that she had no talent in relationships.
However, the little girl suddenly understood that there were so many complicated emotions in the eyes of this man she loved.
The words caught in Chris' throat, and he didn't continue. Still, he waited for Merry to speak.
Not long after, the little girl's round eyes blinked twice, and she said seriously, "Brother Chris, are you worried when you get old I won't want you anymore ?"
Chris. "..."
Since when did this little girl become so smart?!
Seeing Chris blink, Merry bit the corner of her mouth, then reached out her hand to touch his cheek, and whispered softly, "Brother Chris, you are so kind, how could I not want you!"
"Even if you are old, ugly, bald, you will still be the man I love. I want to be with you not only because you are good to me. After all, many people treat me well. Father, mother, sister Lilia, Anna, Clifford, they all love me very much."
After speaking, Merry took a sip of the teacup on the table, licked the corner of her mouth, and continued. "But... . you are different. When I can't see you, I will miss you. The more I think of you, you will appear in my dreams and it will be the most beautiful memory for me. I can't find that kind of longing in anyone but you."
"Besides, when I see you with another woman, I feel very uncomfortable, my heart hurts. But if I see Tom or Alex surrounded by women, I will be happy for them."
If Alex and Tom heard this, they would probably cry.
At this moment, Merry finally revealed all her feelings. Perhaps because she was too nervous, she took a few more sips while holding her teacup.
When he put down his cup, Chris' serious expression faded.
He stretched out his thick eyebrows, looked at the little girl with a gentle expression, wiped the water stains on her mouth with his thumb, and suddenly sighed, "Are you sure?"
Merry nodded heavily, hugged Chris, and said firmly, "100% SURE!!"
As the words fell, the weight in Chris' eyes faded even more.
His thin lips lifted slightly and he smiled, his eyes on Merry's soft red lips, and he swallowed his fear.
Damn it!
He felt a little out of control!
The current atmosphere is very ambiguous, and his face and Merry's are getting closer and closer. But at this moment, there was a knock on the door.
In an instant, the two suddenly parted, their expressions slightly awkward.
They almost forgot that they were still in the company!
Therefore, when Abhi pushed open the door and entered, what he saw was Chris crouching on the floor and Merry sitting in the chair. They all cast their gazes at the same time, causing Abhi's heart to tremble, and he feels so guilty.
Did he come at the wrong time?!
At this moment, Chris adjusted his mood and stood up.
He held the back of Merry's chair in one hand, his eyes narrowed. "What is it?"
Abhi looked into Chris' eyes and shivered for a moment. "Master, you need to go to the studio for an inspection visit at 10:30."
Chris nodded solemnly after hearing the voice. "I know."
After Abhi heard his answer, his eyes turned back and forth between Chris and Merry several times before he finally turned around and left the booth.
He felt complicated!
Who would have known that when he opened the door, he suddenly saw President Chris kneeling in front of Merry the new secretary.
In this modern era, family relationships are really complicated!
...
At ten in the morning, Chris left the office building with Merry.
After getting into the car, the little girl sat beside Chris and continued to talk. "Brother Chris, if we go to the shooting location, shouldn't we bring something for sis Lilia? She doesn't like too sweet food, or... should I buy her a cup of coffee? Or just a fruit salad? Filming on set is very difficult."
Chris had previously promised Merry to take her to the set when the opportunity arose.
It so happened that Lilia had recently taken on a role in a historical drama, and the set was also close to the company.
He always remembered that the little girl wanted to be Lilia's assistant, and her expression looked very happy when she heard she would meet with Lilia.
At this time, Chris was listening to Merry's excited cheers while driving.
After holding it in for a long time, he said with great interest, "You know Lilia's preferences well.. What about me? What do I like? Let's see how much you like me."
