138 You Are Born to Be Free
“Well, the gig is about to start. So if you like to stay here, you can stay as long as you want. I don’t really want to argue with you. By the way, I hope you stop saying anything more about my daughter.”
Anna stood up. When she passed by Allie, she calmly said, “If you don’t like the fiancé your mother has arranged for you, you should bring your man home to let him meet her. If you don’t dare to do it, that’s okay. I am your sister, so I can ask your parents whether you can marry him or not for you. You know, father is not a snob, and there’s a chance he might agree to it.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Allie was so shocked and nervous that she couldn’t even speak clearly. She looked around and found that everyone was sizing her up with a complicated gaze.
“Don’t listen to her, guys! She’s talking nonsense and trying to ruin my reputation! I’m from the Gabriel family. How could I possibly keep a toy boy?” i Anna didn’t expect her to keep a toyboy at first, but she knew very well that Allie was a vain
woman. She figured that Allie would never admit it and was terrified that people would mention it
Everyone enjoys gossiping. When Anna broke the shocking news, everyone enthusiastically talked about Allie’s personal life.
Anna knew that Allie felt embarrassed. If Allie hadn’t provoked her first, she wouldn’t have made her awkward in public.
Allie got angry when no one listened to her explanation and said, “Urgh! Anna, you are a shameless b**ch! How dare you insult me like that? I’ll kill you!”
Allie walked toward Anna and raised her hand to hit her.
Anna did not expect Allie to hit her in front of many people. It was already too late when she tried to dodge it, and Allie’s hand was about to land on her face.
Just as Allie was going to hit her, a man stood in the doorway. He then held Allie’s wrist with one hand to prevent her from hitting Anna and then scolded her, “Allie, what are you doing?!”
Looking at the man, Allie’s expression immediately changed. “Scott, you’re back!” She said.
“This is my room. How dare you bully her in here! Do you want me to call the police?!” Scott said coldly, and then immediately shook off Allie’s hand.
“Ah, you‘ve misunderstood me! I wanted to hit her because I was too angry. You have absolutely no idea how she just slandered me and ruined my reputation in front of so many people. Anyway, I came here today to support you! See, I’ve brought you flowers!”
Anna didn’t expect Allie to play innocent.
Anna sneered and didn’t even try to defend herself. Then, she looked at Allie indifferently, wanting to see what she would continue to say
Scott didn’t give the flowers a glance and said coldly, “I know Anna wouldn’t do something
like that. You’re not welcomed here. Get out!” .
Allie felt extremely embarrassed. Anna had just announced her secret in front of so many people, and Scott wanted to kick her out.
Allie pursed her lips and frowned. Then, she growled, “We grew up together, and I’ve always treated you as my family. After you came back here and made your debut, I even found people to invest in your show. I’ve always been extremely supportive of you, but how could you do this to me? You’re such an ungrateful man. Don’t forget if our family hadn’t adopted you in the first place, you would have died in the underground boxing ring.”
Everyone was silent after she finished speaking. Anna felt her heart beat heavily and then immediately looked at Scott.
“Get out!” Scott said furiously. His voice, which had always been pleasant, seemed a little gloomy at that moment.
After this farce was over, everyone got back to work. Some of them fixed Scott’s hair, and some put makeup on him. As they worked in the show business, they were usually used to seeing people quarrel and were not surprised. Everyone did not mention the incident just now as if they had made a deal.
Afterward, Anna saw Scott’s agent give each person a bill as a tip to keep them quiet.
However, no one noticed that in the direction of the security exit, a man wearing a hat was holding a camera, filming everything that had just happened.
“We‘ll leave you alone. Scott, don’t be nervous. You can do it.”
