Chapter 636 - Sanna And Marie (1/2)

”It doesn't seem to be going well,” Vega complained. ”Look at that auntie's face. It's really pale. What do you think they're talking about?”

”Ugh... We should have put a bug in Dad's shirt,” Altair complained. ”We could've heard what they're talking about...”

Ahem!

Suddenly, a coughing sound came from behind them. The two children jumped in shock before looking back.

”Ugh! Uncle, please don't surprise us like that,” Vega grumbled while touching her c.h.e.s.t. Her heart was beating really fast.

”What are you two doing?” London questioned when he saw his nephew and niece standing tiptoed over a large potted plant at the edge of the swimming pool, peering behind the wall that separated the penthouse and Sky Bar.

He then went up to the pot and tried to see what Altair and Vega were watching.

At the side of the Sky Bar's glass wall, he saw Nicolae sitting with a beautiful girl.

Oh! Apparently, the twins deliberately booked a table that could easily be seen from the penthouse so they could watch their father's lunch date.

”How is it?” London whispered to the two in a conspiring voice. ”Is there any progress?”

Altair and Vega, who thought they would be scolded, breathed a sigh of relief. Apparently, Uncle London was as interested as they were.

”We still don't know. The beautiful auntie's face immediately turned pale as soon as she arrived even though Daddy hadn't done anything strange...”

”Hmm...” London squinted his eyes, trying to see the situation better. Physically, Nicolae and Sanna looked good together. Many Sky Bar guests were quietly paying attention to them because they were feasts for the eyes.

Inwardly, London was also pleased that Nicolae managed to find another girl to love. But why does this girl look pale? He couldn't guess what was happening.

Sanna gulped her prosecco nervously and her uncomfortable attitude was clearly read by Nicolae. He had been trying to get her to talk, but the answer was always short and unclear.

”Uhm ... did I make you uncomfortable?” Finally, Nicolae asked attentively. Sanna only smiled slightly and shook her head.

”It's okay ... It's just that you look different from your picture. I'm a little surprised, that is all,” Sanna answered honestly.

”Oh ... sorry, my children are naughty,” Nicolae answered while coughing a little. ”They intentionally chose my photo from the worst possible angle.”

Instantly Sanna's face looked drawn and the pale color on her face disappeared.

”Children? Do you have children?” she asked him.

Nicolae nodded. No matter what, he would always be honest from the start that he already had two children to whoever woman he would meet. Indeed they are not his biological children, but those women didn't need to know the details.

”Yes, I have two 10-year-old children,” Nicolae answered.

Sanna's face instantly brightened. ”Oh, I see...”

She then smiled and, for the first time, Nicolae realized the girl had a very attractive pair of dimples.

”You look happy to hear that I have kids...” Nicolae commented. Sanna's attitude attracted him. The girl nodded shyly.

”Ah ... yes, I should be honest from the start. I have an Electra-complex ...”

Nicolae was stunned to hear Sanna's honesty. No wonder such a young and beautiful girl like her agreed to meet Nicolae who was described in his profile as an older man in his 40's. Apparently Sanna had Electra-complex, a psychological disorder that made her attracted to an older male figure in place of her father.

The opposite of the Electra-complex is the Oedipus-complex in men who liked older women because they reminded the men of their mother.

Nicolae swallowed hard and gulped down the prosecco until it was gone.

Now he understood why Sanna was happy to hear that he already had children because it meant his fatherly image still fit the girl's criteria.

He did not know how to behave in front of a girl who openly claimed to like older men.
