Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand novel Chapter 546

546 It’s A Misunderstanding

"Ma'am, please don't get me wrong. | don't even know him!" Alicia exclaimed, her eyes widening

"What are you talking about?" Anna asked, surprised, "| haven't said anything, my dear."

"What are you doing here, Mom?" Matthew asked

"Your Uncle Ryan and I said someone called the cops to arrest you, so | came to see you," Anna explained. As she noticed the swollen lump on Matthew's forehead, Anna exclaimed, "Matthew, what happened to your forehead?"

Without answering Anna, Matthew cast a glare at Alicia. Under his glare, Alicia felt so guilty that she wanted to run away. Here comes his mother. I'm so screwed! | have no chance to be with him anymore... she thought to herself

Lowering her head, Alicia whispered, "Ma'am, I'm sorry."

After seeing the little girl's pajamas, Anna realized she might live there. Then Anna panicked even more and thought, = What? You're living here with Matthew?! You're still a teenager!

Thinking of that, Anna questioned Matthew, "What is going on here, Matthew? What are you doing?"

"Huh? What?" Matthew asked, puzzled

"Why do you have a girl living in your house?"

"Mom, | don't live here, remember?" Matthew frowned

"| know you sometimes live here. The point is, you don't seem to respect this girl at all! Matthew, you can't do that!"

545 It's A Misunderstanding "Ma'am..." Alicia couldn't help but interrupt her

However, Anna kept on saying, "Don't worry, | will take responsibility for this. Where do your parents live, girl? I'd like to go meet them." Alicia's eyes widened in surprise as she realized Anna had misunderstood the situation

Matthew sighed and said, "Huh? No! It's not what you think, Mom."

"I've seen you living with this girl!" Anna exclaimed anxiously. She then sighed and appeared to be blaming herself. "I'm sorry. It's all my fault

| should have been more concerned about your life, Matthew."

At that point, Alicia realized she couldn't remain silent any longer

She said, "We're not really living together, ma'am. Your son and | have just met."

"Huh?" Anna went completely still

"Mom, | told you," Matthew said calmly to Anna

Then, scratching her nose, Alicia explained awkwardly, "I'm Amber's... Oh, Tammy's new..."

"She's Tammy's friend," Matthew cut in, giving her a wary look

"Can either of you two explain to me what this is all about?" Anna asked while crossing her arms

Matthew interrupted Alicia by saying, "| came here to deliver a package to Tammy. | had no idea Tammy's friend was staying here for the time being, so | walked right in. | thought she broke into her house, and she thought | broke into hers. So, we called the police

"Is that it?" Anna asked, frozen

Puzzled, Matthew looked at his mother, and said, "Yes, that is all

What else do you think it could be?"

Hearing Matthew's explanation, Anna felt relieved. She told Alicia, "I'm really sorry. | got the wrong idea about that."

Shaking her head, Alicia said, "No, | should apologize for it. Before | hit him, | didn't even ask who your son was."

"It's fine. That's not serious at all." Anna spoke calmly

After hearing this, Matthew looked surprised because he knew Anna was acting as if she didn't care. She had to make a big deal out of every time he was hurt before. And he couldn't figure out why Anna said that

While Matthew was still wondering what had gotten into Anna, Alicia said, "His forehead is swollen and has bled. We should take him to the hospital."
