“Everyone in the Wright family knows whether Anna is polite or not,” Peter said at that point. Peter hadn’t said anything since Johnny got hurt. And everyone turned to face him after hearing his words.
With a stern face, Peter continued, “You are Anna’s family, so you are supposed to protect her. Well, this is the first time | have seen someone 335 | Won’t Allow Anyone to Bull.
who would give their relative a hard time. | have never seen such uncivilized people like you in my whole life! Also, | heard that you just called Matthew a mute, Sylvia. Get the hell out of here. You’re not welcome here anymore!”
Peter’s words were like a slap to Bruce and his family. At the same time, Sylvia’s face became paler. And everyone was stunned.”
Hearing Peter’s words, the two bouncers had yanked Sylvia out before she could get back to her senses. She continued to shout as she walked away, looking defiant. Sylvia’s husband followed her out the door. And Bruce became embarrassed and also followed her out, leaving Lydia sitting on the sofa with a child in her arms, looking unhappy.
Anna didn’t look pleased either because they were her relatives anyway. Peter was saying this to protect her, but she still felt embarrassed. After all, no one wanted their family to humiliate them on such a special occasion.
“What’s going on? You think you can do whatever you want just because you’re rich?” Lydia said loudly.
Anna closed her eyes, not wanting to watch what would happen next.
Selina yanked Joe’s arm away from her and yelled at Lydia, “Stop talking! You’ve already humiliated Anna!”
Selina took a deep breath after saying this. Then she stood up, looked at Peter, and said, “Sorry for what happened, Peter. How about my husband and I take you to dinner in a few days? Please accept my sincere apologies. Please just call it a day.”
Saying that she approached Anna, gave her a little pat on the shoulder, and then went away. Immediately after that, Lydia left, clutching her baby. 335 | Won’t Allow Anyone to Bull.
The dinner, was originally for celebrating Anna and Wayne’s engagement. But in the end, it turned into a farce.
Anna scratched her hair and whispered to Peter, “I’m sorry, Grandpa | didn’t expect this to happen.”
Wayne knew Anna was upset, so he spoke up for her, “Grandpa, Anna is not very familiar with them. So, they are not considered to be her family. Today…”
Peter interrupted Wayne, “Anna did nothing wrong today!” His voice was majestic, and he seemed to feel sorry for Anna. In shock, Anna slowly looked up at Peter.
“This would not have happened if | hadn’t insisted on inviting all of her relatives. I’m sure it had nothing to do with Anna,” Peter added.
Hearing that, Anna felt touched and was no longer embarrassed and upset about what had just occurred.
Peter then said softly, “Anna, it appears that you endured a great deal as a child. Don’t worry, no one will ever treat you unfairly again. You are Wayne’s wife, and you are now part of my family. | won’t allow anybody to treat you like that!”
At that moment, Anna remembered that when she was a child, her grandfather said to her one Christmas, “You are my most precious granddaughter, the apple of my eye. | will not allow anyone to treat you unfairly.”
As her grandfather’s words and Peter’s words echoed in her mind, Anna’s eyes welled up with tears. She sniffled, nodded and said, “Peter, thank you.”
When Anna was a child, no one in her family cared for her except her grandfather. Selina had been cold to her back then, so her grandfather was the only person who treated her nicely.
Peter was a cold, serious man, the polar opposite of Anna’s warm and loving grandfather. They were, however, both men who would protect their families.
The dinner didn’t go well, but Peter said nothing about it. When he returned home, he took the two children with him and asked Anna not to worry about it anymore. Anna wasn’t bothered but figured Selina wouldn’t necessarily think so.
It was late in the evening when Anna and Wayne got home. Wayne got into bed after taking a shower and then he read the financial magazines by his bedside. After a while, Anna sighed.
Wayne smiled, still looking at the magazine, and asked, You’re still furious about what had happened this evening, am I right? It’s okay; you didn’t know each other that well in the first place. Just don’t contact them ever again.”
Anna rolled over and gazed at Wayne, saying, “I’m sure | won’t see them again. But I’m more worried about Auntie Selina. She must be enraged, and I’m afraid she’ll overthink it. You know, it’s bad for her health.”
“It’s all right, Anna. If you’re really worried, you can pay her a visit tomorrow.”
Anna moaned once again and added, “Of course, yes. To be honest, | 336 Owing Her an Apology think something might go wrong.”
Wayne wasn’t in the mood to read his magazine after hearing her say that. He placed it on the nightstand, lay down, and tightly held Anna. Then he said gently, “Don’t think about it anymore, sweetheart. Good night.”
However, Anna was unable to sleep at all. She knew that Selina had never wanted her to marry Wayne in the first place. Selina didn’t know that Matthew was Anna’s son, so she always disliked the idea that Anna would be the stepmother to someone’s child. Selina was also concerned that Wayne would not devote himself to Tammy because he had a son.
Anna believed she must tell Selina the truth before they married. However, the most important thing for her was letting Wayne know about it first. After a long moment of hesitation, she plucked up her courage and said, “Wayne, | need to talk to you about something.”
Upon hearing that, Wayne wrapped his arms around her and rested his chin on her shoulder. “What is it?” he asked gently.
“Well, it’s about Matthew’s birth mother…”
Wayne quickly tightened his grip on her, which made Anna so nervous that she suddenly lost her courage to say anything further. After a little pause, Wayne said, “I’m sorry, Anna. | should not have done that. Don’t think about it anymore, okay? I don’t want to, and I’m not going to look for his birth mother again. Matthew has you. And it’s all that matters.”
Wayne assumed that Anna was still thinking about Sophia. He was well aware, though, that he owed her an apology. So, he took the opportunity to talk to her about it.
However, Anna was left with conflicting feelings. She found it difficult to say anything after hearing Wayne’s words. After a while, she asked, “You knew later that Sophia was a liar, didn’t you? What did she say about that?” 336 Owing Her an Apology Wayne rubbed his chin on the back of her head and whispered, “She said nothing because | couldn’t find her. Gabe will handle this.” Anna asked nervously, “Huh? What are you going to do to her?”
“Why are you so concerned about this woman, Anna?” Wayne asked suspiciously.
Anna hardly dared to breathe. She said, “No, nothing. | was just asking.”
Wayne was going to ask another question when she yanked on the blankets. “I’m tired. Good night. I’m heading to Selina’s place tomorrow morning.”
Wayne then switched off the light and said nothing further. In the dark, Anna could hear Wayne’s steady breathing and feel his heartbeat. She realized that she wouldn’t feel so torn about it if it hadn’t been for all the webs of lies she made. Also, she felt it was too difficult for her to explain it to him in a moment.
While they were sleeping, the clubs in Birmingham’s city center were as loud and bright as daytime. Many people danced and had a nice time under the lights.
In one of the luxurious private rooms of the club, Ada was standing on stage, wearing fishnet garter stockings, and singing a pop song. She appeared attractive as she sang and danced in a s****l way.
Asim man on the sofa cheered and stopped the music before she finished singing. With a sneer, the man looked at her and said, “Well done! You can be the female lead, Miss Xavier”
“Thanks!” Ada rose to her feet and smiled at the man.
After Richard went to prison, Ada lost her money and network. She needed money, so she decided to act again. That way, she had to go to all sorts of social events. 336 Owing Her an Apology
And she had never thought that she would one day attend such an event. She wanted that five million dollar paycheck, so she had to attend such parties and entertain the directors.
The man surveyed her and said, “But there’s something missing. Do you have any idea what it is?”
“| don’t know,” Ada said, frozen.
The man took a puff on his cigarette and smiled. He said, “You’re not wild enough. The main character in the film is a p’ e who isn’t ashamed to sell her body. You simply did not act wild or shameless enough ”
Ada had been an actress for a long time and was aware of what this director desired. He seemed like he was directing Ada, but he meant he wanted to see her naked. Then Ada slowly lifted her head. Her lips were red as roses, and her eyes were very attractive.
She slowly pulled the top she was wearing off her shoulders, revealing her fair shoulder and her plump boobs. After that, she said, “Let me do it again.”
In the early hours of the morning, the bar fell silent. Lily, who was dressed in a bunny girl costume, dozed against the wall outside that room. When Ada walked out of the private room, Lily yawned and asked, “Sis, are you done with that?”
Ada glared at her as she was humiliated. Lily immediately covered her mouth and said, “No, | didn’t mean it like that.”
