SWNOVELS Chapter 513
513 The Troublemaker
By the way, Wayne told me that Jaspers sending Gary back to England," As she packed her lunchbox, Jennie said.
Anna nodded and said, "Jasper is going through something
complicated. Wayne doesn't know how to look after the children, and I'm
always busy with work. So, we'll have to ask you to do
I can absolutely look after him. Is this something related to Gary's parents?"
"Jasper didn't tell me the specifics, but I don't think it's about them After all, b both his parents died."
Jennie sighed and said, "Right. His parents are no longer alive, so let's not bring it up again." After saying this, Jennie put her lunchbox away and added, "OK, I'm leaving. Bye." TIL walk you out."
"I'm good, dear. You should have some rest here."
After seeing Jennie off, Anna sat alone behind her desk. She had wanted to take the time to look at the patients' cases, but she couldn't concentrate.
A few days ago, Jasper had abruptly mentioned that he would send Gary back home without explaining why. She initially assumed it was due to his troubles, but her instincts told her it wasn't that simple. It was also weird that Wayne had suddenly returned from the south. Anna suspected he knew something about it, so she decided to ask him when she got home. 512 The Troublemaker
At around five o'clock, Tammy's high school entrance was packed with students in the afternoon. Clutching her backpack, Tammy emerged from the school gates, and she had a lollipop in her mouth. As she walked, she talked happily with her friend.
Tammy was fifteen years old and in her freshman year of high school. Her hair was tied in a ponytail, giving her a vibrant look. She wore a white shirt, a plaid skirt and a pair of white trainers. "Tammy, is that your mother?" Her friend asked with curiosity at the sight of Anna
"No way! My mother is probably at the hospital right now. She'd be too busy to pick me up! Don't try to fool me," Tammy immediately replied without even looking up. And she snatched her friend's hand and asked, "Tell me, who put chocolate in your locker today during lunch break? I won't let you go unless you tell me"
"You're being mean now, Tammy," Anna said.
Tammy stopped when she heard Anna's teasing voice and said, "Mom?!"
I haven't seen you in a month, my dear. When did you begin to bully your friends?"
Tammy's friend greeted Anna politely before breaking free from Tammy's grip and saying, "I have to go, bye!"
"Hey! You haven't told me yet!" Tammy said as she tried to catch up to her friend.
Anna reached for Tammy's collar and asked, "Why are you running? Come on, let me take you home. You should be grateful that I took the time to come and get you."
"Ouch! That hurts!" Tammy c****d her head and struggled to break free from Anna's grip. Anna was a doctor who knew how to use her 512 The Troublemaker strength, so Tammy had no way of escaping. Tammy struggled for a long time before finally stopping and pleading
for mercy. She blinked her big eyes and said, "I'm sorry, Mom, Please let me go. Everyone is staring at you. Many of my friends are here, too."
"You're worried about other people staring at you? Then why weren't you worried two weeks ago when you threw the head teacher's glasses into the restroom?" Anna released her grip and said.
Tammy took a step back in horror, her eyes widening, and she asked, "Huh? How did you find out about this?"
With one hand, Anna opened the passenger door, adding, "You thought you could keep it a secret from me, didn't you? Get in the car. We'll talk about it later."
Tammy was forced to get in the car. She took out her phone and secretly texted someone as soon as she sat in the passenger seat. Anna lectured Tammy as she drove back home. "Why didn't I realize you were so smart before? Last week, your teacher asked you to call your parents to school. Why did you let Natalie go? I thought it was your brother's job to. clean up your mess."
"My teacher said my brother was underage, so she asked me to bring an adult," Tammy explained.
"So why Natalie?"
"Technically, she is my Grandaunt..."
Upon hearing that, Anna stepped hard on the gas pedal in rage. She thought, Tammy, you sure are a tough nut to C**k. A troublemaker like you always got yourself into trouble at school. But you're not afraid of it because Matthew always got your back. Because I want you to focus more 'on your study instead of causing trouble, I transferred you to another high
school and leven stopped Matthew from cleaning up your mess again. 512 The Troublemaker
Well, well, well. And now you even dare to invite Natalie to your parent-teacher conference without telling me. This is way out of line, Tammy.
Tammy immediately put her phone away after noticing Anna's angry expression. "I'm sorry, Mummy. I swear I'll study hard and never bring any trouble again!" She pled
"Really? I just saw you bullying your friend! You gripped her and kept her from leaving."
Tammy raised her hands and said, "I was just kidding her. She seems to have been in love lately, and I asked about it."
"What?" Anna paused before answering.
"Yeah! There are always a lot of snacks in her locker these days. She also got a few love letters."
Then Tammy started telling Anna what the boy had done to attract her friend. Gradually, she seemed to have forgotten what Anna had just said and didn't notice the change in her expression.
Anna gripped the steering wheel tightly, her gaze drawn to her beautiful daughter's face from the corner of her eye. She became alittle emotional all of a sudden. And Anna thought, How quickly time passes! You're already a teenager, and now, you became interested in love. I'm curious how Wayne would react if he heard that.
"Why did you come to pick me up from school today, Mom? Are you not busy today?"
Anna snapped back, saying, "I switched shifts. Your Great Grandpa misses you, so I'm taking you to his house for dinner." Tammy's eyes immediately lit up. She asked, "Really? I want to grill fish Grandma made! It's so delicious." 512 The Troublemaker "OK," Anna smiled resignedly and replied.
It was getting late, and the city lights were turning on. When they got home, they noticed that the lights at the front door were also turned on. The gentle night made even the old, solemn house appear cozy. Tammy was thrilled as soon as she saw her grandmother. She helped Jennie in the kitchen with the cooking and kept entertaining her. During the meal, Tammy kept eating the cooking ingredients until she was full.
Jennie loved Tammy, so she sat next to her at dinner. She said, "Tammy, you've grown up a lot! You are just as gorgeous as your mother. I'm curious about which lucky man could marry you."
Anna glanced at Wayne and noticed that he appeared to be upset. "It's too early to talk about that," he said. And he thought, Tammy is my most treasured child. I don't want her to leave me so soon. Ryan teased Wayne and said, "Take a look at my son, Zac! I wonder if he'll ever be lucky enough to marry someone as lovely as Tammy." Sitting next to him, this cute 2-year-old boy was eating rice pudding and appeared to be enjoying it.
"So? I have a daughter, but you don't," Wayne said to Ryan.
Ryan shook his head and said, "What's the big deal about it? My son is adorable! Can't you see?"
"So? You don't have a daughter, but I do."
Nearly rolling his eyes at Wayne, Ryan bit into his meatbail indignantly, refusing to speak to Wayne.
