537 Why Did You Run Away?

Everyone turned to look at Wayne after hearing Maria's words. Then Wayne asked Matthew, "What do you think?"

Before Matthew could answer Wayne's question, Anna said anxiously, "Wayne! Matthew can't handle this alone. You must go for him."

"No, | can handle it by myself," Matthew replied.

With a gloat, Wayne tapped Anna on the shoulder as she was about to say something else. Later, Maria exited the room after confirming the launch date. Everyone else then left because Matthew had work to do.

Then Anna and Wayne dined at the restaurant on the hotel's top floor.

"Why did you leave Matthew to deal with this on his own? Matthew is still a child!" Anna asked Wayne, who sat across from her.

Putting his knife away, Wayne said solemnly, "Matthew planned the entire Cliatin project on his own. So, if | attend the press conference instead of him, the board will believe that the project has nothing to do with him, whether it succeeds or fails. In other words, despite Matthew's efforts, the shareholders would still doubt his ability."

Hearing that, Anna started to sigh. She couldn't help but complain, "I told you earlier that you shouldn't have let Matthew run the company by himself so early! He's still a teenager! The shareholders certainly won't listen to him."

"After you resigned, the company's stock price plummeted. Although the share price was then brought back under control, it was still a knock to the head for Matthew's career. He must be under a lot of stress right now," 536 Why Did You Run Away? Anna said while shaking her head.

Pouring Anna a cup of tea, Wayne gently said, "Matthew is not as fragile as you think, dear. Have some faith in him. Look, I've brought you your favorite cherry pie."

Otherwise, it will be torturing for him if you keep pushing him like this. Yet, you never expected much from Tammy. Thinking of that, Anna began to worry about Tammy's future once more, Jammy begged me to take her to see Matthew before we left. Where is she now? Is she truly worried about Matthew? Or did she simply want to have fun in a different city?

As she left the hotel with her favorite song playing through her headphones, Tammy was wearing a black down jacket. She later stopped a cab and told the driver, "Please take me to Cliatin University."

Thirty minutes later, before getting out of the car, Tammy handed the driver fifty dollars and said, "Keep the change."

Tammy followed Google Maps to a convenience store. As soon as she pushed open the door, she heard a soft voice, "Welcome to our store."

As Tammy looked up, she saw Isabella, who was lowering her head. Tammy instantly smiled, exclaiming, "Wow! Isabella, you've changed so much!"

Isabella looked up, her eyes brightening when she saw Tammy. "Tammy! What are you doing here?"

"Chelsea, do you know each other?" After getting out of the storage room, Anthony asked, looking at Tammy blankly, then at "Chelsea" beside him. 536 Why Did You Run Away? —)

Isabella removed her apron and handed it over to Anthony. She said, "This is my sister. | need to leave for a while, Anthony. I'll explain it to you later."

Isabella and Tammy then went into a nearby small bar. "An orange juice, please," Isabella said to the bartender after ordering a drink.

"| want cocktails," Tammy winked as she said.

Isabella turned to the bartender and said, "She's still a minor. Just give her orange juice." Then she turned to Tammy, rolling her eyes at her and saying, "Don't think you can do whatever you want just because your mom isn't here."
