Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Chapter 138



Chapter 138

“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.

Scott had always been a lively person. But at that moment, he looked so irritated that it was frightening

Then, he took two steps toward Allie.

Allie was so frightened by the stern look in his eyes that she stumbled back a few steps. She held on to the wall, almost unable to stand.

Scott stared into her eyes and said, “Allie, I’m warning you for the last time. Stop meddling in my own business in the future. Just like Anna, I can live very well without relying on your family’s money.”

“Scott, that’s not what I meant. I…”

“Get out!” Scott said furiously. His voice, which had always been pleasant, seemed a little gloomy at that moment.

Anna winked towards his agent, who had long been standing frozen. He then came back to his senses and walked forward to separate them. He smiled politely at Allie and said, “Miss Gabriel, the concert is about to start. If you have bought a ticket, please go to your seat.”

Allie knew that she could not stay here any longer. She bit her lip and gave Anna a reluctant glare before she turned to leave.

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.”

The agent patted Scott’s shoulder to cheer him up. He then left the room with everyone, leaving Anna alone in the dressing room with Scott

The dressing room, which was noisy a moment ago, was instantly quiet “Do you still care a lot about what happened back then?”

Anna asked Scott could hear her every word very clearly and felt as if a pair of gentie hands ripped open his wounds, exposing the unpleasant past that he had tried so hard to hide

But even if it was gentle, it would still make him feel pain

Scott felt his heart beat heavily a few times. He frowned as he thought back to the old days of fighting in the ring and worrying if he would still be alive.

Scott saw Anna’s face in the huge dressing mirror, then smiled bitterly and whispered, “I kinda want to say I don’t.” Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Anna put her hands on his shoulders and said soothingly, “It’s okay. No one can really forget about their past, and it’s even harder to let it go. But, no matter what kind of experience it was, it’s part of your life, and you can’t abandon them. All the things you have experienced make you who you are now. Do you like yourself now?”

Scott looked a little happier. He said, “I like who I am now, and I like everything I have. I couldn’t have had that if you hadn’t taken me away from the underground boxing ring. So, I think you gave me all that I have, and they are yours.”

Anna laughed and said, “Do you remember what you told me before you ran away from there? I asked you what you wanted, and you said that you wanted freedom. At that time, to you, the freedom did not mean to stuck with me for the rest of your life. If that was the case, it would be Tike you were living in a different cage.”

Scott was stunned, as if he had almost forgotten those words. He looked a little bewildered and lost. Then, he whispered, “Anna, you know very well that …”

Anna interrupted him and withdrew her hand, saying, “The concert is about to start, and it’s time for you to get on stage. Scott, you are born to be free, but not to live for someone or something.”
