Chapter 1629
And so, after searching seven or eight private rooms in the restaurant, they still had not found any
woman who seemed to be âTristanâsâ mother.
Lea started to think that âTristanâ might have hallucinated the whole thing because he missed his
mother so much.
The young waiter was becoming frustrated. âLittle miss, do you remember which way the window in
your mom's room was facing?â
If he knew whether her mother's room was facing north or south, he could knock on fewer doors
and disturb fewer patrons.
Not every patron was easygoing, and some got annoyed when he entered without food, only to
look for someone. He was worried about complaints.
Lea shook her head. âI... I can't remember..."
The waiter sighed. âAlright. Then we'll just keep going room by room.â
With that, he knocked on another door. This time, there was no response from inside. Instead,
someone came to open the door.
It was a child.
The waiter politely asked, âLittle fella, is this young lady with you? Do you know her?â
The child who opened the door didn't reply because he was stunned.
It was none other than the real Tristan.
Tristan had just finished going to the bathroom in the private room, and when he came out, he
heard someone knocking on the door. He opened it, only to find Lea,
his aunt.
Lea was stunned too. She was first shocked, then joy washed over her.
She found him.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't believe such a coincidence could happen.
If this child were not wearing different clothes from the Tristanâ downstairs, she might have mixed
them up, thinking that âTristanâ was being disobedient again and had sneaked upstairs.
After watching the two children stare at each other in silence for a while, the waiter became
completely baffled. Did they know each other or not?
âLittle fella? Speak up. Do you know this young lady?"
The waiter waved his hand in front of Tristan, who was still in shock.
Tristan looked up at the waiter but didn't say a word. He didnât know what to say.
Without an answer, the waiter thought that the little boy was too young and shy to speak to
strangers. He turned to Lea. âYoung lady, do you know this little fella? Are you together?â
Lea regained her senses and nodded. âYes, we are!â
The waiter was relieved. Finally, he had found her room. Now he didnât have to knock on the next
door.
However, his relief didn't last long. An adult came over from inside the room to see what was going
on. âWhat's up, Adrian? Who are you talking to?â
The man was Byran
âAdrianâ didn't answer his uncle. He was still in shock and unsure how to react. He didn't know how
Lea had found him or if she was going to take him back to his father's.
The waiter politely responded to the manâs question. âGood evening, sir. This little lady got lost, and
I've brought her back.â
A little girl got lost?
Byran instinctively thought of Layla. But Layla was inside the room, quietly eating her meal. She
hadn't gone anywhere.
He looked at Lea, who was standing next to the waiter. âThere must be some mistake. This girl isn't
with us.â
