My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)
Chapter 797

When she heard I spoke in this way, which was much better than the usual cold tone, Valerie was stunned for a moment. Her expression then changed to surprise. She excitedly pulled Pedro and said incoherently, "Okay, okay, anything will do."

Pedro was still relatively calm. He patted the back of her hand and looked at her consolingly. Then he waved his hand to call the waiter. The waiter cleared the table, and we ordered food again. Valerie was probably in a good mood. She looked at me and said, "Arianna, what do you usually like to eat? I remember when I was still pregnant with you, I especially liked barbecue ribs and desserts. Do you like these?"

The bond between a mother and her daughter was a fact that could not be changed. It was true that I liked eating sweets and barbecued flavored foods. It was the same even now; it had not changed for many years.

The memory of this kind of food should belong to the sense of induction. Seeing her looking at me with anticipation, I nodded and said, "Yes!"

The smile on Valerie's face grew even wider. She looked at me and said, "I heard that Anne is now in Hanlusia City, and Hendrix has been rather busy recently. Why don't you come back to the Moore Villa and stay for some time? I've always kept your room tidy. It just so happens that Freya has returned to the Moore Villa as well. I see that you're quite close to her, so you two can have a nice chat."

After that, she looked at me expectantly. I looked at her, but I thought of Rowane. I did not like this woman who expressed her ambition and desire on her face.

But my heart inexplicably ached for her. I also felt distressed when I heard the past from Eugene. It might be even more dreary if she was the one who told me this.

Pedro ordered some food. Upon hearing Valerie's words, he turned to look at me and waited for my reply with an exceptionally serious expression.

After hesitating for a few seconds, I said, "I am living well with the Roberts. Hendrix is busy for a few days. After everything is settled, we're planning to go on a vacation." Although I did not reject them directly, my words were very clear.

Valerie was about to say something, but her face darkened when she saw someone.

Out of curiosity, I turned my head around and saw Andrea, though I was not surprised.

It was a small world. The person you wanted to meet might be nearby, but no matter how you circle the area, you would not meet them. However, people you did not want to see would always wander in front of you.

Pedro had also spotted Andrea. He frowned slightly; a look of displeasure that was hard to detect was on his face.

However, Valerie's facial expression was obvious. There was a hint of disgust in it.

After all, they were once mother and daughter. I had thought that the Moore couple would at least have some affection for Andrea.

But when Andrea came over and said hello, Valerie's face became gloomy.

"Mom... Madam Lawson!" Andrea said and looked at Valerie with a smile on her face, "You're also here for dinner!"

Valerie's gloomy face did not subside. Instead, she said mercilessly, "Miss Burton, we're having a family meal. If there's nothing else, please don't disturb us."

Her words were cold and cruel.

Andrea's face stiffened. She spoke after a long pause, "Madam Lawson, please don't overthink.

I'm just here to say hi I don't mean anything else."

Valerie did not say a word, and her face grew gloomier and gloomier. Pedro's face was completely dismal; the aura that he was emitting made people back off.

He glanced at Andrea with his cloudy eyes, his gaze was sharp as he said, "There's no need!"
