I Am the Sweetheart of Mr. CEO-Chapter 438 - 437: The Girl from Six Years Ago (Part 41)
"Miss!" A waiter from the floor saw her standing in the corridor in a daze and walked over in confusion, "Is there anything you need help with?"
"Oh... no!"
Vera returned to her senses, hurriedly stuffed the photo back in place, thanked him, and walked towards the private room.
...
...
Inside the private room.
Kris Cooper noticed that Vera hadn’t returned for so long and worriedly got up.
"Where are you going?" Bailey Hansen immediately asked.
"I’m going to check, why it’s taking so long, that girl’s arm is injured, hope nothing happened."
"I’ve been abroad for half a month, and you didn’t show this much concern for me!" Bailey gave him a jealous glance, then reached over and grabbed her son’s arm, "Son, don’t mind me asking, but... what really happened six years ago?"
Before this, even Kris Cooper didn’t know the truth, let alone Kenton Maverick and Andre Colin.
Therefore, even someone as influential as Bailey Hansen and Christoper Cooper couldn’t figure out why Vera left their son back then.
Kris Cooper frowned, "Mom, there you go again! Can you stop prying into personal privacy?"
Before Bailey could speak, Christoper Cooper had already spoken for her.
"Your mom is concerned, don’t be impatient, be honest."
"You heard him, hurry up and explain, or else..." Bailey gave a mischievous smile, "I’ll go ask Vera!"
Kris Cooper immediately showed a look of tension, "Mom, don’t mess around! Or else, I’ll really be angry!"
Bailey directly gave him a dismissive glance, "Pfft... who are you trying to scare!"
"I’m very serious." Kris Cooper straightened his body and spoke solemnly, "In short, regarding what happened six years ago, not a single word is allowed to be mentioned to her."
Seeing his serious face, Bailey could only shrug her shoulders.
"Alright, alright, I won’t mention it, raising such an ungrateful son, if I had known, I would have thrown you in the trash back then... But can you at least tell me what happened?"
"Not now!" Kris Cooper turned and walked towards the door, "I’ll go check on that girl first, and we can talk when I have time later."
Settling the bill took so long, he couldn’t help but worry a bit.
He strode to the door, pulled it open, and saw the young girl standing right outside.
"Why are you standing here?"
"Oh..." Vera tilted her lips, "I... I was just about to open the door!"
"Why did settling the bill take so long?"
"People were lining up." Vera casually made up an excuse.
Kris Cooper reached over and took her bag, speaking indulgently.
"Come in quickly, your favorite dessert has just been served!" 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
Sitting back in her chair, Vera looked at the blueberry yam placed on the table and couldn’t help but get lost in thought, recalling the conversation she overheard earlier.
Did she vaguely hear Kris Cooper say that not a single word about what happened six years ago should be mentioned to her?
What exactly was it?
Glancing sideways, she watched Kris Cooper put his wallet back into his pocket, and once again that photo flashed before her eyes.
Could it be related to the girl in the photo?
"Why are you staring blankly?" Kris Cooper turned to see her staring at the dessert absent-mindedly, reached over, and neatly tucked her fallen hair behind her ear, "Eat quickly, after you finish, I’ll take you to visit grandma."
"Okay."
Vera picked up her spoon to eat the dessert, but her heart was troubled, and she had little appetite, eating only a few bites before putting down her chopsticks.
Kris Cooper was only worried about her health, seeing her full, he quickly bid farewell to his parents and took her away.
Sitting in the car downstairs, Vera hesitated all the way until the car reached in front of the old house, Kris Cooper helped her open the car door and assisted her out, she finally couldn’t help but speak.
"Kris, I... I have something I want to ask you!"
