When Anna heard this, she immediately changed her expression.
-Manuel, this is different from what we agreed on, isn't it? You promised me earlier, are you going to break the promise?
-But--I can tell Uncle that I want to eat lobster so Uncle will take me to some restaurant.
Hearing this, Anna's eyes instantly sparkled, and she hugged Manuel's shoulders tightly. She was so excited that she almost cried, exclaiming, "Manuel, you are such a beautiful baby. I'll cook you anything you want!
Manuel blinked, thinking he had earned it.

It was already noon when Serena woke up, the blazing sun was overhead and the room was still brightly lit despite the curtains blocking the sunlight.
She looked at her unfamiliar surroundings and remembered what Cristian had told her the night before.
After thinking about it, she got up slowly.
It did not look like a hotel here, but more like a residence, except that it was not familiar to her, and there was no sound of waves around, so it must not be a beach house.
So where was it?
Serena lifted the blanket and stood up. The environment was quiet, and she saw her phone left on the table.
Serena reached over and picked up her phone, discovering that Cristian had texted her,
After you get up and read this message, go wash up in the bathroom, I have prepared all the supplies for you. There are some clothes in the closet, then wait for me to come back and we will have lunch together.
Serena entered the bathroom after a moment of silence and actually found the toiletries ready. Then she put the phone aside and brushed her teeth and face.
Then she looked at the toiletry glasses on the shelf and became distracted.
That was a set.
And it contained items for three people, two for adults and one for children.
There were three wash cups as if they had been prepared especially for her and Manuel, just cups for a family of three.
For some reason, seeing this scene, Serena was very moved.
She had turned on the camera, adjusted the visual effects and filters to take a picture. Then he looked at her with a smile on his face.
When she came out of the bathroom about ten minutes later, she went to the closet as Cristian had told her. After opening it, she found it full of women's clothes of all kinds.
When had she prepared all this?
After looking through the clothes, Serena finally chose a set of everyday clothes to change into, then sat down and texted Cristian,
It's still early. How about I go back to my house first instead of waiting for you?
At the Ferrari Group
The meeting was in progress, and Cristian sat in the main seat, watching several old shareholders argue in front of him, while he remained calm.
The phone in his pocket vibrated, and Cristian's gaze shifted slightly, then he pulled it out.
Although the rule of not answering calls and not looking at the phone during meetings had been established by himself, he broke it at this moment when the phone vibrated and it occurred to him that Serena was sleeping at home.
He did not want to miss any messages from her. After pulling out his phone, he saw a message notification, his thin lips rose and he unlocked her screen directly with his fingerprint. However, that message was to tell him that Serena did not want to wait for him.
The happy expression vanished immediately. Without considering that he was in the meeting room, he called Serena directly.
Serena put her cell phone aside after sending that message, thinking that Cristian would be at work at that hour and would not respond so quickly.
But who knew that she would call as soon as the message was sent, Cristian's call came immediately.
So quickly...
Serena answered the phone, "Hello?
-If you don't wait for me, what will you do?
A rough male voice rang out loudly. His repressed voice must have been muffled by the discussions of the old shareholders.
