Vania nodded before shaking her head.
Seeing her response, Bryan was dumbfounded. "What do you mean?"
Vania threw her hands up. "She says she likes me, but she likes Hanson deep down."
Hanson darted a look at her in disbelief before the realization hit him. No wonder I've felt previously that there was something wrong with the way that woman looked at me, he thought. He quickly changed the subject, saying, "Let's not talk about those unimportant people anymore. Let's go."
Vania smiled. Seems like he's realized it, too.
With that, the group went to the restaurant together.
Miraculously, Vania seemed perfectly fine as she walked. She didn't suffer any physical injury upon catching Jennifer when the latter fell from such a height. However, she definitely didn't stage her passing out and hospitalization. She had really passed out from the hit at the time.
In the restaurant, the seven little kids sat down across from Bryan. "Uncle Bryan, can we order something to eat?"
"You can, of course." Bryan handed each of them a menu. What a bunch of nice and polite little kids.
Vania gave Bryan a look of sympathy before saying to her children, "Uncle Bryan is a nice person, so watch what you order."
James nodded obediently. "Don't worry, Mommy. We'll only order as much as we can eat. We won't waste food like those bad kids."
What a good boy! Bryan couldn't help but stroke their hair again. At this moment, he was overwhelmed with compassion. "Just order whatever you want. I can afford it."
Hearing Bryan speak like a money bag, Hanson nodded with deep emotion. This naive idiot has really experienced little in life. He'll soon know how cruel reality is.
However, the seven little kids seemed to really show Bryan mercy. Each of them only ordered two inexpensive lunch sets.
Seeing the food they ordered, Hanson raised his eyebrows. Could I have been mistaken? Are these seven little kids really partial to Bryan? Inwardly, he was somewhat unhappy about this.
Seeing that the kids had ordered so little food, Bryan said with concern, "Kids, how about I order some desserts for you guys?"
The kids softly expressed their care for Bryan. "Thank you, Uncle Bryan, but we have enough to eat. You should eat more."
Bryan was deeply moved. For a time, he thought he had wrongfully assumed them to be up to some mischief. They're seven cute little kids. How could I think that they'd deceive me? I'm so sorry for that. I have to buy a few more pieces of clothing for them later as a token of my apology.
After they finished lunch in a cheery mood, Bryan immediately took the seven little kids by the hand. "Kids, I've promised you all just now that I'll buy some new clothes for you. Let's go and take a look together."

James immediately shook his head. "We're so moved by your kind gesture, Uncle Bryan. It's just that Mommy and Daddy have bought many clothes for me, so please don't waste money on that."
"That's right! You can buy clothes for us after you become an award-winning actor," Jack chimed in.
Jacob nodded as well. "We've charged you a fee for our service, so we can't spend your money again." No doubt we're virtuous business people.
Morales and Morgan also voluntarily took Bryan's hand. "Uncle Bryan, you're such a nice guy." We've got to flatter him when we should.
At this moment, Bryan was almost moved to tears. "Kids, you guys really are a bunch of little angels."
Seeing his children, Hanson heaved a heavy sigh inwardly. They're more like a bunch of little devils, he thought.
"Uncle Bryan, let us help you right now," Jack said voluntarily.
