Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

515 Mom, You're So Scary "Who is Martin's worst nightmare?"

"Me! I would lecture him whenever I saw him, so he's definitely afraid of me most."

Anna raised her chin to the sky and said, "No, I don't believe so. Martin is terrified of you, but he got his grandparents to protect him. So, he may not be afraid to be lectured by you. He will not listen to you at all."

"What are you talking about? Other than me, who else would he listen to?"

"Look over there."

Peace looked in the same direction as Anna and found a young girl in the distance with a ponytail. Her eyes widened, and she exclaimed, "Right! Tammy! Martin was reluctant to attend the wedding, But when told him everyone was going, he agreed. He knew he would see Tammy there."

Nothing could make Martin fearful since he was a child, but someone in the Wright family could. She was seven years older than Martin, just enough to keep him in check. Most importantly, Tammy was always a role model for Martin. So, he adored her and considered her to be a goddess.

Peace took Anna's hand in his and asked, "So, how are we going to get Tammy to help us? I would be grateful if you could persuade Martin to move back home."

"You don't have to worry about that because we don't even need to make a plan. Tammy can always come up with new ideas. She's a smart kid, but she can't remember what she's been taught in school. You can just 514 Mom, You're So Scary ask her to give you a hand."

"Right." Peace nodded.

"We've got this figured out, haven't we? You should probably stop picking on Karl. He'll be sad," Anna patted her hand and said.

"That's not true. I don't care if he grows a beard or not because I don't even want to see him!"

"Fine."

Anna grabbed Tammy, who was about to sit next to Wayne after everyone had boarded the plane. Tammy looked at Anna with caution and asked, "Mommy, what are you doing? I've been acting well recently and haven't caused any problems."

"Tammy, sit next to me. I want you to help me with something," Peace said, holding Tammy's shoulders. Tammy quickly broke away from Anna's grip and hid behind Peace. "What favor? Consider it done!"

When Anna noticed her daughter hiding behind Peace, she became

jealous. She shook her head and said, "You have no idea what's going on.

Aren't you worried that aunt Peace will cause you trouble?"

Tammy immediately turned to face Anna and said, "No, I'm not. However, I'm scared that you will cause me trouble. After all, sometimes, you could be the scariest woman in the whole world." "What did you say? Do you dare to say it again?"

•Ah! Aunt Peace, come help me!" Tammy retreated behind Peace. She knew Anna couldn't catch her, so she laughed triumphantly.

Anna would have taught Tammy a lesson if there hadn't been other passengers behind them. Knowing what Anna was up to, Wayne gently

tugged Anna's arm and invited her to sit by the window. Then Wayne 514 Mom, You're So Scary tightened her seatbelt and said, "Don't be upset, Anna. Did you forget how much you missed Tammy when she wasn't around?"

"Stop it. I know, you're all nice people, and I'm the scariest woman in town." Anna averted her gaze as she grumbled.

Wayne took her hand resignedly and said, "You know how hurtful teenage can be. She'll realize later that you're a wonderful mother."

As Anna paid no attention to him, Wayne laughed softly and said, "Baby."

Anna couldn't help but smile when she heard him call her "baby." However, she continued to stare out the window and pretended to be angry.

With a sigh, Wayne took her hand in his, and their fingers interlocked "It's been a long time since I've traveled with you," Wayne said quietly.

Anna's heart was breaking. She turned to face the man beside her and said sadly, "I'm so sorry. I've promised to travel with you for years, but I've never had the opportunity."

"See, we're traveling together now." Wayne's grip on her hand tightened, his voice soft and gentle. Anna remained silent for a moment before leaning on his shoulder.

They had planned numerous trips together over the previous few years. All of their plans were canceled due to her work schedule. Wayne Wasn't upset with her at that time; he even looked after her after she got home from work. During these years at home, he spent most of his time with her. Any ambitious man would not want to do that, but he enjoyed it.

Anna had known Wayne so long that she had forgotten how cold and arrogant he was when they first met. So, she began to have second thoughts about that volunteering project. 514 Mom, You're So Scary

The plane took off with a roar, and the flight attendant gently notified them that they were on their way. Outside the window, the city shrank until it was nothing more than a tiny dot among the snowy white clouds.

"Ill take some time off to stay home with you and the kids," Anna said over Wayne's shoulder.

Anna realized that both marriage and relationships require two people to work together. As a result, she couldn't keep Wayne paying for her all the time. She knew that even if she had many ideals to pursue, she needed to give up some of them for the people she loved.

They had a long flight ahead of them. The quiet first-class cabin grew quieter and quieter as the hours passed and the sky grew darker. Only the sound of breathing remained, apart from the sound of the plane flying.

It was late in the evening. A young boy stood in front of a floor-to-ceiling window in a hotel on the outskirts of town. He was dressed in anice suit. Although his face was young, his eyes were firm and calm. Maria, his assistant, approached him and said, "Your luggage has been packed, Mr. Wright. The flight will depart in three hours, and I will drive you to the airport."

"Aunt Maria, you can call me Matthew in private," Matthew said gently.

"That's okay," Maria replied, "I'm used to it."

"Are my parents on the plane by now?" Matthew asked, looking at Maria's silver boarding case.

Maria checked her watch and replied, "Yes, their flight departs at three o'clock in the afternoon. They'll most likely arrive tomorrow morning." 514 Mom, You're So Scary

Matthew said with a nod, "Great. You can stay here and handle the project. Just let the driver take me to the airport. By the way, please send me the overall plan for the project later."

"Okay, I'll tell call the driver right now," Maria said as she took out her phone.

Then Matthew walked toward the door,

"Matthew," Maria couldn't help but call his name as he approached the door.

"Yes?"

Maria approached him with a few steps. She wanted to straighten his suit but remembered he didn't like people to touch him. As a result, she withdrew her hand. She said, "This project should go smoothly. You've been busy for a long time, so maybe you need a break."

Maria wanted to point out that Matthew was only fifteen years old. She did not say these words because she knew few 15-year-olds lived like Matthew. He was as decisive and determined as his father. "I got it. Thank you, Aunt Maria," Matthew said with a smile.

"Please tell me when you take off and when you land."

"Okay."

Maria became worried as she watched Matthew leave. She always felt that letting Matthew run the entire Carousel Group alone was not a good idea. But there was nothing she could do about it. Her phone rang at that moment, bringing her back to her senses.

"Hello?"

"Hello. Are you Miss Maria Miller?" A man asked. His voice was mature and low.

"Yes, Who is it, please?" 514 Mom, You're So Scary

"You've probably forgotten about me. My name is Noah, and we met at a business reception about a month ago."

Maria thought for a moment but had no recollection of this man. She asked, "What can I do to assist you?" Maria was also curious as to how this man had her phone number.

"There's something I'd like to talk to you about the Carousel Group's new project in the south," the man said.

As Maria heard him mention the project, she frowned and thought, Many companies covet this project, so it took a lot of work for the Carousel Group to get it. As a result, many people wanted to get some benefit from us. Many people called me and even negotiated terms to tempt me since we took on that project. I have worked for the Carousel Group for many years and I'm Matthew's aunt, so I will not allow anyone to take advantage of us.

"I apologize, sir.

"Don't be in a rush to say no. I'm not going to talk about cooperation, but I want to remind you of a few things."

Maria almost burst out laughing when she heard this. She said, "Sorry, maybe I don't need that." She thought, You think too highly of yourself. Is this a new kind of scam?

"That land belonged to someone else before the Carousel Group won the bid. You would not have been able to win this project if we hadn't given up oni Then Maria asked in shock, "Is that you? The Azul Group?" The man laughed and said, "You seem to be very familiar with this project. Why don't you come downstairs and meet me right now?"
