Mr. CEO Has a Crush on Me-Chapter 1140: Mommy Finally Came Home! (Part 1)

Lu Wanwan patiently waited on the side until the little girl finished her call and asked her mom to take a picture.

She immediately stepped forward and said to the little girl’s mom, "Ma’am, could you help me with something? I’m in a bit of trouble."

Mexico isn’t exactly a safe place; she’s hesitant to randomly ask a local for help.

The police in Mexico are inefficient, and with Xiao Ye’s rampant actions here, there’s likely some connection with government officials, so she’s unsure who she can trust.

Though Xiao Ye allowed her to leave, she remembered Wen Qiao’s example. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Cesar repeatedly gave her opportunities to escape, only to reappear the moment she believed she had succeeded in escaping.

It went on and on until she gave up all her escape plans.

From then on, whenever she had the thought of escaping, she felt certain Cesar was waiting for her ahead.

Therefore, unless she first contacts someone trustworthy who confirms no issues with the local police station, she dares not go.

Generally speaking, tourists pose the least problems and tend to be relatively helpful.

"I encountered a thief; everything was stolen from me, and now I don’t even have my phone."

"Oh my God," the American lady said sympathetically and warmly, "that’s just terrible. Are you here alone?"

"Yes, I’m a tourist from China. Could I make a call to my family? Please."

"Of course!" Without any hesitation, the American lady handed her the phone. "Hurry and call your family. Do you need to go to the police station?"

"I want to contact my family first, then I’ll go to the police station. Thank you, ma’am."

Lu Wanwan held the phone, tears welling up in her eyes.

But who should she call?

She never memorized anyone’s number; they’re all stored in her phone’s contact list.

She can’t call Gu Annan; she knows that even if he’s not dead, he might be in the hospital, otherwise he wouldn’t have resigned from Gu Corporation and disappeared.

If he hears about her from the hospital, he might disregard his health to come after her.

Xu Yuan changed her number a few years ago, and in the United States, she communicated with her via WeChat video calls, so she didn’t memorize her new number.

Besides Gu Annan, the only numbers she knows are Little Momo’s and Little Youyou’s.

"Youyou, why are you so happy?" Fang Ya saw Little Youyou bouncing down the stairs holding a phone.

"Mommy called me again!" Little Youyou, eyes brimming with joy, handed the phone to Fang Ya. "Grandma, do you want to talk to Mommy?"

Fang Ya paused, a flicker of bitterness in her eyes before she quickly shook her head and smiled, "No need, if you miss her, chat with her more."

"But Mommy doesn’t video call me anymore!" Little Youyou plopped onto the sofa with a sigh, "She only calls; I can’t see her. Mommy, did you hear me?"

Whatever was said on the phone, Little Youyou unhappily replied, "Mommy, you’re sounding more and more like brother."

Fang Ya: "..."

Disguising Lu Wanwan as Little Momo: "..."

"Okay, Mommy, you and Daddy have fun; I’m going to the garden with Grandma."

After saying goodbye, Little Youyou hung up, feeling resigned, "Mommy sure loves to have fun."

Fang Ya’s heart felt a bit sour, still unsure of Wanwan’s whereabouts.

"Come on, Grandma will take you to the garden."

Little Momo hung up the phone and sighed in relief.

Sometimes it’s scary; a few more words might unravel the disguise.

But Youyou is easily satisfied, happy just hearing Mommy’s voice.

Just as Little Momo was about to head out, the phone suddenly lit up, displaying an unfamiliar number from Mexico.
