Chapter 135 – After the One-Night Stand with a Heartless Billionaire

Anna knew that Scott liked her a lot, and she had been very frank about it.

She knew that Scott liked her because she had saved him from the violent boxing ring. That experience had changed his destiny completely. So, the more successful he became, the more he would thank her.

He was still a young man, but he had already comprehended the meaning of life and death, which made him not able to fall in love with the girls around him about his age. However, to him, Anna was unique. She was his life savior and the most important person in his life.

Anna knew she wasn’t in a position to judge whether Scott’s feelings for her were love or not, but she knew she just thought of him as her family.

“I know it.” Scott looked melancholy and was a little clueless as he got up. Anna followed him to the door. Suddenly, he turned back and said, “Anna, can you give me a hug? I need you to encourage me.”

Anna froze, opened her arms, smiled, and hugged him like a family member. She said, “Go for

“Thanks.”

“Scott! You’re so cool!” “I love you!!!”

Tammy shouted, waving the fluorescent sticks in her hand to cheer for Scott. Her screams made the people around her excited and thrilled too. Later, everyone shouted how much they loved Scott in a thunderous voice.

As the concert ended, everyone shouted “encore” and hoped he would sing one more song.

Anna felt like she was going deaf as she was surrounded by the crowd. She said to Ryan in a loud voice, “Hey, I think Tammy’s too carried away! You can leave if you can’t stand it.”

Ryan laughed, and then put a pair of earplugs into her hand.

“Oh, my god! Thanks! You’re a genius!” Anna’s eyes lit up as she said that She stuffed the earplugs into her ears and then covered her hair with them. Afterwards, she didn’t hear the noises around her anymore.

Scott walked back to the stage, making the fans scream even louder. Anna looked at the stage at ease and nodded her head as if she could actually hear what they were saying.

Scott, wearing a white shirt and clutching his guitar, looked in her direction and smiled. He said, “I want to dedicate this song to the most important people in my life. She has done something that completely changed my life. I used to think she was my reason for living, but instead, she told me that I was born to be free and that I’m not supposed to live for anyone or anything but myself.”

The audience rhythmically waved pink fluorescent sticks in their hands, making the auditorium look like waves. All of them fell silent and listened intently to Scott’s pleasant voice and melodious guitar sound.

His song was very touching and brought tears to the eyes of many fans. However, the only person to whom the song was dedicated was not moved. She still looked calm and at ease, and even the way she swayed to the rhythm was slightly different from others. The earplugs in her ears made her perfectly miss the moment he said what she meant to him.

After the concert, Tammy’s voice was already hoarse because she kept screaming for hours. She fell asleep on Ryan’s shoulder in exhaustion before they walked to the parking lot.

“Let’s go straight to your home. I’ll take Tammy back for you, and then I’ll take a cab back to the hotel myself.”

“Oh, no, it’s okay. Peace is home. I’ll take you back to the hotel after I drop Tammy off at home.” Anna buckled her seat belt and drove up the highway.

The concert was being held at a stadium in a remote place, and it would take an hour and a half to drive back to the city centre. That was why she had to take the afternoon off.

The car had just pulled out of the parking lot when a little boy broke away from the man holding him in the distance. Even though he ran as fast as possible, he couldn’t catch up with the car.

He had just run a few steps when the car had disappeared before him. “Matthew.” The man quickly followed, leaning down to hold his hand.

Matthew looked back at the man fiercely, then moved his hand away. He looked down, wrote a sentence on his drawing board, and then showed it to Wayne.

“Why don’t you talk to mom and Tammy?”

Matthew had treated Anna as his mom since she and Wayne were dating. Also, it was easier to write the word “mom” than “aunt Anna”.

Wayne took a deep breath and then said, “She took Tammy to the concert with another man, and she didn’t even ask if you wanted to go. Also, why are you calling her mommy?”

“I’m glad to!” Matthew wrote quickly, then glanced at Wayne. “Hey, let’s go home.” Matthew glared at him with his arms folded, not wanting to go home.

Wayne felt irritated then said, “Then, I’ll go and leave you alone here. You can go ahead and chase her car.”

Matthew sat down on the ground immediately after hearing this and pouted as if he would cry the next moment.

Wayne had not intended to leave, and he just did it to scare Matthew and let him behave like a good boy. When he saw Matthew’s cute little face, his heart melted. He squatted down and said, “Okay, Matthew, I know what you mean. I’ll ask her and Tammy to join us for dinner this Thursday.”

Matthew was just pretending to be aggrieved. After he heard Wayne’s words, he became happy the next second. He immediately held up the small board in a hurry and wrote, “It will be Mommy’s birthday that day.”

Wayne frowned and asked, “How do you know that?”

Matthew didn’t answer him but stood up on his own and walked to Wayne’s car. He climbed right into the passenger seat without Wayne carrying him up at all.

He looked a little proud as if he had won a fight.

Tammy had told him this, of course. Matthew did not remember exactly what day Anna’s birthday was, but it immediately came to mind when he heard Wayne say “Thursday”. This was because people don’t usually ask people out to dinner on a weekday if there was nothing special going on

It seems that Daddy is not as stupid as I expected! Matthew thought.

On Thursday, Anna took the day off and took Tammy to the cemetery to send flowers to her mother’s tombstone.

Anna froze for a moment when she saw a bouquet of calla lilies in front of the headstone. She then immediately looked around but did not see anyone. She thought it must have been sent by her mother’s friend and felt moved.

The tombstone was dustless as if it had just been cleaned. However, she still wiped it carefully and said, “Hi, mom, this is Tammy, my daughter. I didn’t tell you when I left this country, and I’m sorry for that. Since I’m back, I would like you to meet her.”

As a child, Tammy had no idea what death meant. She looked at the picture on the tombstone and exclaimed, “Mom, grandma is so beautiful. You two look alike.”

Anna laughed and said, “Yes, your grandmother’s brother said the same thing before.” At that moment, she suddenly took a look at the calla lily and realized who had brought it.

Anna’s mother had been dead for many years. No one else among all her relatives remembered to visit her mother except for her mother’s brother Joe.

Anna and Tammy then left the cemetery. They had just reached the door when Anna saw a familiar person walking toward them. The woman was wearing a grey outfit and was dressed much more plainly than usual, to the point that Anna almost didn’t recognize her.

“Aunt Selina? Is that you?” Anna’s expression changed after seeing her. This woman was Selina, the wife of her mother’s brother.
