Chapter 1024 - Who Is That Man?
Erika doesn't have many friends, and after leaving home when she was young, she cut off all contact with anyone from Jakarta.
On the day she revisited the old place, she coincidentally met Donny, which made her heart feel something strange.
If she hadn't gone that year, Donny…. Would have been her husband.
But since she was young and stupid, the only way out of those shackles was to run and not look back.
Erika stared at Donny blankly, the young and gentle man in her impression seemed to have become much more mature now.
In her field of vision, Donny walked towards her. He is seen wearing a gray vest with a black shirt and pants.
"Erika, do you remember me?"
Donny stood in front of Erika, and he asked in a soft and magnetic voice.
"Of course I remember. Donny, it's been a long time." Erika smiled slightly, a trace of guilt hidden deep in her eyes.
Donny looked around and nodded to Chris and the others. Then his eyes fell on Erika, and he seemed to be joking. "Your brother told me that you would come to Kebayoran Baru today. I happened to be here because I have a business with my shop, but I didn't expect to meet you here!"
After Erika returned to Jakarta, Donny had the idea of ??going to the Laibahas family's house to meet her.
However, due to various reasons, he always hesitated.
Today, he suddenly received a reminder from Ivan that he had to muster up his courage to try his luck.
Finally, he can meet her!
At this moment, Merry lightly loosened her grip on Erika's arms and moved quietly to Chris' side, tiptoeing and whispering in his ear.
When Chris heard the voice, he rubbed the girl's hair nonchalantly, and then took a step forward. "There are so many people here, why don't we go to the cafe for a break?"
He skillfully understood this situation.
In this city, whether it was an old friend or someone with a special identity, if one encountered this situation by chance, then they could not escape easily.
Since everyone was looking at Samuel up front, and because Erika was still rooted to her spot and just watching for a long time, Chris immediately intervened.
In that case, Erika gratefully glanced at Chris. Donny's reply also came timely. "There's too many people in that cafe, how about we go to my family's shop? There's a private room and it's relatively quiet."
"Well then, please lead the way." Chris nodded and agreed.
Donny chuckled and smiled, he then turned and led them to the clothes shop across the aisle.
As they walked, Merry and the others saw that Donny was cleverly blocking passersby with his body, clearly worried that they would hurt Erika.
He is a careful and considerate man!
They quickly disappeared near the alley, but Samuel's gaze didn't back down.
He paced forward with a clear aim.
Erika?
Why did he seem so close to that man?!
Not only that, he also knew that Erika was staring at Donny with a deep and longing gaze.
How could he never know that there was such a man in Erika's hometown?!
"Samuel, what are you going to do?"
At this time, seeing Samuel moving forward faster and faster, Emma grabbed his hand with a hint of dissatisfaction.
Samuel was forced to stop and looked back into Emma's eyes, then asked, "Don't you want to try to mend your relationship with your daughter? So why don't we just go over there?"
Emma stood still for a moment and blinked her eyes. She calmly said as usual, "But your wife is there too, I am afraid I will upset her. But since you suggested, we'd better give it a try."
Samuel looked at Emma, ??and the feeling of irritation came to his heart again.
Today, he had come to a special place to pretend to meet Erika by chance.
Unexpectedly, before meeting Erika, he met with Emma on this Arunika street.
Obviously, after eating at the hotel not long ago, the two of them parted ways.
The scene where Emma appeared in this place must have raised serious doubts in Samuel's heart.
He found out that the silk clothes shop belonged to the Laibahas family, and it was located in the middle of the area so people must pass by often.
But Emma showed up early and asked him to accompany her to buy silk at the shop. After the two met, Samuel instinctively wanted to leave, as he was afraid of being seen by Erika and caused unnecessary trouble.
But the result was really unsatisfactory. He accidentally saw Erika's figure when he came out of the shop.
At this time, Emma moved forward, but in the blink of an eye, she found that Samuel was still where he was.
She smiled. "Why don't you go? Don't you want to see what the relationship between that man and your wife is?"
Such an evil reminder made Samuel's handsome face sink.
He took a deep glance at Emma, ??said nothing, and walked over to the clothing store across from him.
...
There weren't many customers inside the shop at this time. The weavers in front of the sewing table are discussing a design with a customer.
Donny led his guests straight into the tea room in the back hall.
Not long after, they sat in front of the worn out tea table. Donny then ordered his men to prepare the cake, and he sat across from Erika politely.
He did not take the initiative to approach, but always kept his distance.
Merry, Chris and the others sat side by side. The little girl's big eyes continued to stare at Donny. This uncle... looks so gentle.
She doesn't know if the weather in South Jakarta is good enough to have created such a personality.
He was like a gentle spring breeze, very comfortable to look at.
"Erika, I don't know who they are..."
Donny opened his mouth and broke the silence after his subordinates brought him tea and cake.
At this time, Erika looked at Donny with a smile and started to introduce them one by one. "This is my daughter Merry, this is the second child of the Hartanto family from Surabaya. And these two are Merry's friends, Anna and Clifford."
Hearing the voice, Donny greeted each other with a smile, and his eyes fell on Merry's figure. He was surprised to see how young this little girl was.
The little girl seemed to be in her twenties, not fitting with Erika's age.
As she noticed Donny's gaze, Merry explained without hesitation. "Uncle, I'm her stepdaughter."
Everyone. "..."
When Donny heard this, he suddenly laughed.
With Merry's words just now, the atmosphere in the tea room became much calmer.
After a while, the little girl looked at Chris' arms and said in a low voice, "Brother, I want to eat ice cream!"
Chris looked at her sideways with a laughing heart. Merry wanted to give Donny a chance to be alone with her mother!
Anna also immediately raised her hand. "Clifford and I want to eat ice cream too!"
After seeing this, Donny called out to his subordinates. "I'll have someone buy it. What flavor would you like to eat?"
"No need!" Chris said as he got up.. "I'm going to take them out to eat, you guys just talk first."
