As soon as I looked up, a blonde man with blue eyes appeared in front of me. His dark blue eyes were deep as the sea, which made me look dumbfounded for a moment.
"Hello, my name is Welles."
Before I could react, he had already extended his hand to me.
I politely took hold of his fingertips. "Hello."
At this moment, I realized that this strange man was going to strike up a conversation with me. However, it was no longer convenient to make small talk with him.
As I was about to open my mouth, he was already sitting beside me.
"Are you traveling alone in France?" His actions and tone were so natural that I had
no way to say no directly. I could only answer his question first.
"No, I came with my family. My husband and son will be down soon."
I thought that as soon he heard my answer, he would back off. I never thought that I would underestimate his enthusiasm.
"You are so young, but you already have a husband and child?" He continued to ask questions.
I smiled and nodded, not answering.
"You know, many mothers spend a lot of time on their children after they have them. They end up forgetting about themselves. And of course, there are many rich wives who leave their children in the care of others and have time to take care of their appearance, but they can't compare to your beauty at all."
Hearing his strange words, I did not even know what to say.
"I'm sorry, I grew up in France. My English pronunciation is not quite accurate. Please forgive me."
I shook my head. "No, you speak English very well."
At that moment, I heard Munchkin’s yell from behind me. "Mommy!"
As soon as I turned around, I saw him running toward me with Theo behind him.
