Mrs. Marsh's Revealed Identities novel (Jennifer and Ivan)
Chapter 1336: Afraid She'll Run Away

Belinda opened her suitcase and took out a pink anti-loss wrist band, which was commonly seen at train stations when a mother was alone with her child. Without any warning, she attached one end of the wrist strap to Monica's wrist.

"What are you doing?!" The girl screamed in fright. As she realized what had happened, she looked at her mother with astonishment. "Mom?!"

Belinda calmly put the other end of the strap on her own wrist, connecting them with a long spiral cord.

"Childish!" Monica was at a loss for words to describe her mother's behavior.

"Don't underestimate this thin cord. It's made of 59 strands of 404 steel wire reinforced with PVC cores and coated with PU. Ordinary scissors in a hotel can't cut it," Belinda said with a touch of pride. "Also, if you dare to tamper with this cord, I will receive an alarm."

"..." Monica looked at her mother, shaking her head and giving her a thumbs up. "Amazing, truly amazing!"

"You've already escaped once. I have to be prepared early," Belinda smiled and told her. "This cord has a 15 times extension with rapid retraction and won't hinder you from doing anything. The maximum distance is 20 meters."

"Fine!" The girl accepted her fate.

"Alright, I'm going to rest in the room. You can do whatever you want," Belinda said, carrying her suitcase and heading inside.

Monica watched her mother's retreating figure, feeling more speechless than ever. It wasn't until she heard the door close that she slumped on the sofa, bored and picked up the man's information to take a look. After reading through the dense information on the three pages, she had to admit that he was quite outstanding.

However, at 35 years old, he wasn't exactly young.

And Belinda, who had taken good care of herself, looked well-matched with him.

As the thought took root in her mind, Monica couldn't help but smile but immediately suppressed it.

"Hmph, you like blind dates, huh? I'll let you have one."

She took out her phone and sent a text to Tristan.

The general idea was-

She had to accompany her mother to a blind date tomorrow. She would send him the address when the time came and hoped he could show up in time to save the day.

After sending the message, a minute passed without a reply from Tristan.

Monica couldn't help but send another one, telling him that she had been put on an anti-loss cord by her mother and was in such a miserable situation. Surely, he wouldn't leave her hanging, right? Two minutes went by...

Tristan still hadn't responded.

Monica panicked, unsure if he was willing to help her. It was so annoying!

It wasn't until 4 PM that Tristan finally replied with one word: "Alright."

The girl's heart finally settled.

He had agreed! How great!

So that night, Monica didn't suffer from insomnia.

She slept soundly, not thinking of running away.

Belinda, who had been on a plane all night, was actually quite tired. She secretly checked on her daughter several times, only returning to her own room after seeing her sleeping soundly with even breaths. The wrist strap would trigger an alarm if removed, so Belinda soon fell asleep as well.

The decision to arrange a marriage for her daughter must not fall into the hands of Algerone Swain.

The next morning.

The mother and daughter got up, washed up, and had breakfast at the hotel.

Monica wore a purple, form-fitting dress, looking elegant and dignified. It was a dress she had bought with Kevin and Saskia Holt.

Belinda was in high spirits as she led her daughter out of the hotel.

"Are we going so early?" Monica asked. "Isn't it a lunch appointment?"

"We can chat and get to know each other before lunch," Belinda couldn't wait any longer. "Let me tell you, Tom Fritz is not averse to blind dates, so there's a good chance he'll be interested in you." "So he's used to blind dates? No one wants him? He doesn't bother to argue with his family's arrangements? Heh, he didn't even ask if I'm interested in him!"

"How could you think that way? This is his first blind date."

Monica took the opportunity to ask, "I'm almost ten years younger than him, right?"

"Isn't it normal for a man to be a bit older these days?"

"What if the woman is ten years older? Is that normal too?"

Caught off guard, Belinda answered, "In today's society, age can't be a problem anymore!"
