Chapter 88 – After the One-Night Stand with a Heartless Billionaire

“Yes.” Anna had to admit it.

“There‘s no so–called legacy at all. Even if there is, the money has run out. After she was born, she lived in our house and the money was all spent on her as living expenses,“ Selina said impatiently, glancing at Joe with an unhappy look

The atmosphere became awkward. After a while, Joe said in a deep voice, “Anna, I‘ll handle it. You may go back first.” Hearing this, Anna smiled with self–mockery and left angrily. I shouldn‘t have come here today. Why did I think they would help me? It‘s so ridiculous.

She still remembered that after her grandfather passed away, Selina called her a jinx, drove her out of here, and couldn‘t wait to send all her belongings to the Gabriel‘s House to break off with her.

After Anna left, Joe sat down on the sofa with his hands on his knees and said, “You didn‘t spend even a penny of her mother‘s legacy. Why did you say those words to Anna deliberately? What if she hates you because of this?”

“I don‘t care. And the one she should hate is not me but Frank,” Selina said with a hint of hatred on her face. “Back then, Marin was too cowardly. She devoted all she had to Frank, but what did she get in return? She lost everything and died while Frank remarried and live a better life. It’s unfair. Anna is always smart but sometimes she is as brainless as her mother. Since she is lack of money, she should ask her father for money instead of coming to us.”

“I saw Frank several days ago and he mentioned Marina when we talked I could see that he felt guilty for what he has done to her,” Joe said.

“He still had the nerve to mention Marina?” Selina gritted her teeth and said, “Even if he‘s guilty, Marina won‘t come back to life. I sent Anna back to the Gabriel family just to let him see Anna every day so that he can remember that Marina died because of him. I want to make him live in guilt all his life.”

Hearing this, Joe sighed heavily and didn‘t say anything more.

Before Marina passed away, the only one she worried about was Anna. But now Anna doesn‘t seem to be living a good life. If Marina knew this in heaven, she would be sad. he thought helplessly

After leaving Miller‘s House, Anna took a taxi and went back to Peace‘s apartment.

When she arrived, Peace, who heard the door open, came from the bedroom with a facial mask and asked, “How is it going? Have you got the house back?”

Last night, when she came back from a business trip, she helped Anna move and didn‘t go to sleep until after midnight. At this moment, she was still sleepy.

Hearing her question, Anna shook her head and sighed helplessly.

Peace took a cucumber from the fridge, took a bite of it, and said, “You are so unlucky. The villa that your father gave you was occupied by Allie‘s toyboy, and the house that your mother left to you was occupied by your aunt–in–law.”

“Stop it. It‘s so annoying.” Anna sighed and said with her head lowered. “I just want a house. Why is it so difficult?”

“You can live here as long as you want. I will support you all my life as long as you cook for me,” Peace joked and sat down beside Anna. “Why are you in such a hurry to get the houses back?”

Anna frowned and said, “I‘m afraid that if I don‘t have a house, the Court will think that I don‘t have the ability to raise my child.”

“The Court?” Peace was stunned, “Who are you going to sue? Is there anyone who wants to take Tammy away from you?”

“It‘s not Tammy.” Anna said and raised her head slowly. After hesitating for a long time, she decided to tell Peace about Matthew‘s identity.

“The jewelry store called me two days ago and said that they had found the owner of the necklace.”

“The owner of the necklace?” Peace recalled the necklace at once and asked, “You mean you know who‘s Tammy‘s father? Then you will find your son soon, right?“.

Anna nodded and said with a helpless look, “But do you know who Tammy‘s father is?”

Hearing this, Peace tensed and felt something wrong. “Who is it?” “Wayne,” Anna said. After she said that, there was a long silence in the living room.

Peace stared at Anna dumbfounded. After confirming that Anna was not joking, she exclaimed, “Oh, my God! It must be fate!”

Anna frowned.

“Why do you show such an expression? Isn‘t it good? You are the biological mother of Wayne‘s children. Seize the opportunity and marry him and then you will become the hostess of the Wright family! Why do you want to go to court to fight for the custody of your children? Are you out of your mind?” Peace said as she became more and more excited.

However, hearing her words, Anna felt more and more upset and couldn‘t help interrupting her, “Stop it, Peace. Don‘t make fun of me. I‘m not in the mood.”

“What‘s wrong with you?” “I can‘t be with Wayne,” Anna said. Peace was confused and asked, “Why?”

Anna‘s face darkened and she said, “If it weren‘t for him, I wouldn‘t have got pregnant when I was in college. To keep Tammy from being taken away, I had to go abroad in a hurry and couldn‘t even finish college. Because of Wayne, my life had totally changed. He took advantage of his power and took away my son from me but had never thought of the influence of what he has done on a girl who was under twenty years old. He‘s a terrible person.”

Anna had always hated the man who changed her life and took her child away from her six years ago. Therefore, since she knew that Wayne was that man, her good impression of him and her feelings for him faded away.

Seeing Anna‘s darkened face, Peace knew that she was serious and she also couldn‘t help frowning. After thinking for a while, she thought of something and her eyes brightened.

“Anna, there‘s another way to get your son back to you,” she said. “What is it?” Anna asked. “Ask Jasper for help. You are still his nominal wife. How about asking him for help?” At the mention of Jasper, Anna was stunned and her expression froze.

After pondering for a while, she shook her head and said, “I‘d better not do that. I don‘t want to bother him.”

i‘ve troubled him a lot when I was abroad in the past few years. Now that I‘ve come back, / shouldn‘t bother him anymore.

Peace, who knew that she couldn’t persuade Anna, signed and said helplessly, “All right.”

Then she patted Anna on the shoulder and said, “Anna, no matter what happens, I’ll be always with you. Let me know if you need my help.”

Hearing this, Anna was moved and felt less depressed. She looked at Peace with gratitude and said with a smile, “Thank you, Peace. Don‘t worry about me. By the way, why did you share so many photos on social media platforms recently? Are you in love?”

At the mention of this, Peace looked away uneasily and said, “No, I‘m not. Well, I just remembered that I have to send an email. I‘m going back to my room.”

After saying that, she walked back to her room quickly. Looking at her back, Anna smiled helplessly.

Three days later, Scott came back to Birmingham with Tammy. To avoid Scott‘s fans, they left the airport terminal through the VIP passage.

Anna went to pick them up and waited for them at the exit of the airport. “Mommy!” Tammy rushed to Anna happily as soon as she saw Anna.

“Did you have a good time, Tammy?” Anna asked with a smile. The moment she saw Tammy, her depression in the past few days faded away.

“Yes! I‘m so happy!” Tammy said, then wrapped her arms around Anna‘s neck and kissed her on the cheek. “Mommy, why did you come back in advance? Did you make an appointment with Uncle Wayne and Matthew? You all left without me.”

Hearing that, Anna was confused. “Did they also come back in advance?” “Here comes the car. Let‘s go,” Scott cleared his throat and changed the topic.

The shooting of the first episode of the variety show was completed. To celebrate it, Enlight Media would hold a celebration party in the evening.

All the artists, the guests, and the crew of the program would attend it. And as Tammy‘s guardian, Anna was also invited.

The celebration party was not a formal aflair so everyone dressed casually and the atmosphere was relaxing and lively.
