135 My Mommy Hates Liars
Peace stared at Karl wide-eyed and roared, “Why are you laughing? You’re just as shameless as he is. I want to curse you now, but let me cover Tammy’s ears first.”
Karl sighed, glanced at Tammy sitting next to Peace, and said, “It’s not really that simple, and it’s not what it looked like. But, I think we should not let this kid hear our conversation.”
“Why?” Peace and Tammy asked at the same time.
Tammy pouted and said, “My mommy says that people don’t want to be heard only when they’re saying bad things. So, what do you want to say?”
Hearing her words, Karl was suddenly bewildered. He rubbed his nose and said, “Well, if you really want to know, I’ll tell you. But, I’m doing this for their own good. It’s not a big deal, so please
don’t exaggerate this.”
“What do you mean?” “Wayne did it on purpose. Yes, he did it to make up with Anna.”
“Nonsense! If he really wanted to make up with her, then why would he do that? He went on vacation with another woman!”
Karl immediately explained, “That news is fake! All guys know that there are only two ways to make up with women, one is to give them a chance, and the other is to make them feel in crisis. He had already given Anna the chance to make up, but she ignored him. That’s why he wants to make Anna feel that her relationship was in danger.”
After listening to Karl’s nonsense about female psychology, Peace then frowned and fell silent. After a long time, she asked him angrily, “Who the hell told him to do this?”
Karl instantly sensed that he was the one in danger. He immediately explained, “Ah! He wanted to do it himself! Don’t look at me like that. I had nothing to do with it.”
Peace angrily exclaimed, “He’s shameless! Not only does he not think about what is wrong with him, but he uses such strange and lame logic to fool others. He’s really shameless! Tammy, let’s go.”
“Don’t be angry! Peace, you can’t tell Anna about this. Promise me!” Peace glared at him and said, “Even if I don’t tell her, Tammy will.” “My mommy hates liars!” Tammy grunted and followed Peace to storm out of the room. Karl blinked, somewhat overwhelmed. He realized that he had offended all of these people. If Wayne knew about this, he would never let me off. I should just hide, Karl thought.
The next day, as soon as Anna arrived at the hotel, she saw a group of people gathered in the office gossiping And she immediately knew what they were talking about
“Don’t you guys have work to do? Have you uploaded the customer information? Have you checked the rooms? Have you checked all the reservation information?”
Anna stood in front of the office and shouted Hearing her words, the people who had
des Llal’s
+50 Points
gathered before scattered and ran away. Then, without looking back, Anna went straight into her office.
Just as Anna sat down, her assistant, John, came in. He looked at her nervously, put a folder on her desk, and said, “Ms. Gabriel, here’s the client information.”
“Thanks.”
John didn’t leave immediately but hesitated for a while and said, “Anna, you’re a wonderful woman. You can definitely find a better man than Mr. Wright.”
Anna became even more furious. She growled, “Mind your own business! Don’t you have anything else to do? Just stop gossiping!”
“I’m sorry. I’ll leave now.” John nodded nervously and ran off. Almost everyone in the hotel looked at Anna in a meaningful way all morning.
She calmly took her plate and sat down in the most conspicuous place in the cafeteria. Since you want to look at me, I‘ll let you do it. Anna thought.
“Mr. Wright…”
Wayne walked up to her, his tall figure blocking the light in front of her. Wayne then took a seat directly across from Anna.
Everyone realized that Anna was the first woman who dared to treat Wayne like this. Although Wayne went on a vacation with his ex, no woman dared to embarrass him like this in front of so many people. It seemed that Miss Gabriel was really hot-tempered.
Wayne didn’t seem to be angry. He just frowned and then said, “Anna, come with me to my office. I want to explain that news to you.”
Anna sat there still with her arms folded. She stared coldly at Wayne and said, “If you have something to say, say it here. Let everyone hear how the PR department is handling this.”
Everyone became quieter, and they could feel the tension in the atmosphere. They sensed as if they were at the center of a tornado
Wayne looked at everyone around him after a few seconds of silence and said, “The PR department has just made a clarification about that, and I’m sure everyone has read that. So, does anyone have any questions?”
