Chapter 573
573 After Rain Comes Sunshine
Recently, Karl was so busy at work that he didn't have time to tutor Martin on his homework. So, Peace took Martin and Apple to Wright's house and asked Tammy to teach Martin math
As Martin's grandparents spoiled him so much, he always did whatever he wanted regardless of what others thought. Yet, what everyone found odd was that the only person Martin was afraid of was Tammy. He'd do anything Tammy asked him. So whenever Peace needed a break, she would take them to Anna's house
After Peace showed up at the Wright residence with her two kids, Tammy taught Martin his math homework in the study, and she kept asking him why he couldn't solve such simple problems. Instead of retorting her, Martin lowered his head without saying a word and seemed deep in thought
Peace began to enjoy this rare moment of relaxation. She lay on the couch, happily munching on a banana. Looking at Anna, who was sitting opposite her, Peace sighed, "Martin sneaks out of school every day, but Matthew can already manage a large group on his own. How I wish Matthew was my son!"
"Tammy also often skips class and keeps failing her exams. I doubt she'll be able to help Martin with his homework. Do you think Tammy can handle that?" Anna asked, looking in the direction of the study "It's all right. Martin adores her and thinks of her as a goddess. Martin is bad enough as it is, so I don't mind if he gets even worse."
"Really?" Anna asked, looking at Peace in surprise

"Actually, Matthew is so pitiful. When he was a kid, he followed Wayne on business trips and had never actually enjoyed his childhood. He began
taking on such a large responsibility as managing the company when he was fifteen years old. He's never complained, has he? Is he really happy? Anna, are you sure you want him to do this stressful job at such a young age? He doesn't even have a dependable assistant now that Maria is in jail."
Hearing Peace's heartfelt words, Anna remained silent. Frowning, she thought to herself, I'm worried about Matthew's health and I don't want him to be so exhausted, either. Alas... I owed Matthew far too much. Thank goodness he's a considerate kid and he doesn't blame me for it
Peace shut her mouth when she saw Anna's sad expression. At that precise moment, Wayne emerged from his study. He said, "You don't have to be worried about that. I've asked Gabe to come back and work as Matthew's assistant. He has successfully managed a branch in Australia for the past few years, so he can certainly help Matthew a lot."
"He's now the branch's general manager, but you want him to work as Matthew's assistant? Didn't he feel offended?" Anna asked, surprised
"Actually, when he heard the news, he was thrilled. His wife and children are still in England, so he has been attempting to transfer his job back for several years. He even said he'd be willing to work as a janitor to get back to England. Besides, the position of assistant to the president is important. So, I don't think Gabe will feel offended."
"Do you want Matthew to be president all of the time?" Anna asked
She was still worried that Matthew had taken on too much
"It's not that I don't care about him. You see, I helped him whenever he was in trouble. But, because our son is so gifted, he rarely meets a
572 After Rain Comes Sunshine wo problem he cannot solve alone. It's your fault that you're always away from me. I would have had more time to spend with you if I had given the company to Matthew earlier, Wayne said, smiling. He lifted his chin and gave a smug look
Peace sarcastically tossed the banana peel into the trash can and said, "Shut up, you two love birds! Lazy parents typically have diligent children, while diligent parents have lazy ones. This rule appears to work well in your family. Wayne, you're just too lazy, and I'm just too hard-working."
"Right! It's no surprise that I work so hard," Tammy said. She came down the stairs, picked up a banana, and sat on the couch
"What's Martin doing?" Peace asked
"He's doing his homework."
"Great! I knew you could keep him quiet!" Peace gave Tammy a thumbs up
Anna moved her gaze between the two people on the couch and said,
"Tammy resembles you so much. Peace. You two almost speak in the same tone."
"For sure! Tammy is my sweetest little darling!" With a smile. Peace said
Wayne said coldly, "You wish."
After seeing his grim expression, Peace assumed Wayne didn't think she was joking. "Why is he so serious?" she shrugged, whispering to Anna
Tammy approached Wayne and handed him the half-eaten banana she was holding. "I know you've always been the best to me. Dad. My mother even wanted to kick me out of the house but you stopped her Here, this is the reward you deserve."
"You don't want to eat it anymore, do you?" Wayne asked, his brow furrowed. Still, he began eating her unfinished banana
Seeing that. Peace was taken aback. She thought. Since when did you change so drastically, Wayne? 1 remember that you used to be so aloof!
"IL can actually help my brother with his work, Mom and Dad," While Peace was still lost in thought, Tammy said thoughtfully
"Really? I'd be grateful if you didn't make a mess for Matthew," Anna said. She clearly didn't think Tammy could work well
Tammy planned to tell Anna she would promote the company's new product in a few days. But when she realized she couldn't tell her mom that she was working as an e-sports anchor, she kept her mouth shut

In her office, Alicia was working on an advertising proposal. She'd already written four proposals, but none of them satisfied Tammy. Tammy found the proposals either too mundane or too ordinary
Alicia stared at the computer screen, worried. She hadn't expected being an assistant to be so difficult, but she wanted to be good at it. In any case, Tammy had never done a commercial before. If they got it right this time, they would have more opportunities in the future. Alicia was immediately motivated to work because she believed she could make a lot of money
Immediately after leaving the Wrights' house, Tammy returned to her office. She walked into the house as cool as a superhero, kicking open the office door Stunned, Alicia asked, "Can you come in like a regular person? You'll break the door."
Tammy handed her a bag of cakes and a cup of coffee, saying, "I can't

"Wow! Great! Thanks! The only thing that will make me feel better is dessert," Alicia said. She then began gobbling up the cakes
"Are you still working on your advertisement?" Tammy asked, looking at Alicia sympathetically
should have the fifth edition finished by tonight." "Alicia, forget it. I can set up a raffle on the live stream." "Are you serious? Isn't that kind of unprofessional?" "Why? How about you show us how to drink with your eyes closed?"
"No!" exclaimed Alicia
"Or could you finish five bags of instant noodles in five minutes?"
"That shouldn't be difficult, but don't forget you're a live streamer
And you don't want to show your face in public, remember?"
"Well... Yeah... I nearly forgot about that. Seriously, stop writing it. I'll improvise as I go live. I doubt you'll have any good ideas!" Rubbing her head awkwardly, Tammy said "Don't you think you're underestimating me?" Alicia wanted to punch Tammy, but she knew she couldn't
"Am I? I'm just being considerate! Goodnight, I'm going to bed," Tammy then entered her bedroom Taking a long and deep sigh, Alicia stared at her computer, unsure whether she should keep writing
