When he got to the point, Mario felt that he would no longer need to talk. He was too old to talk about things between men and women anyway. The gentleman would have to deal with it himself.
After confirming that Anna had gone upstairs, Matthew asked Mario to drive.
Anna drove home barefoot and desperate.
When she had gotten into the car, she had taken off her shoes, so she had not even brought them with her when she was, walking barefoot to the door. She checked her fingerprints. She entered the house.
She had just entered the house. As she closed the door, she turned and saw Amelia standing not far from her.
He wrapped his hands in front of her, looking at her with a sinister smile.
-And are you finally willing to come back in? And are you wearing such a beautiful dress? The one he brought you is…?
-Don’t ask anything! Don’t say anything! Nothing has happened!
At the mention of this, Anna enthusiastically blocked Amelia’s words.
The mother finally noticed that her daughter’s face was a little pale and her eyes were red as she spoke.
She was stunned and stepped forward quickly.
-What happened to you?
When I ‘saw her go out in the afternoon, she was obviously happy. Why was she like that when she came back?
Amelia was not sure what had happened to her, but she saw that her daughter’s eyes were red. As a mother, she worried too much and could only keep asking, “Did something happen? Who did you go out with? Did the boy who brought you home mistreat you?
It would have been better if Amelia had not asked. Anna had managed to hold her emotions the whole time and had even returned to her room without expression. She wanted to take a shower and go to bed mechanically.
Little did she know that as soon as her loved ones became worried, the thread of her heart could not be kept completely.
She opened her lips slightly and wanted to say something to her mother, but the tears had fallen before the words could come out. Then they hit the floor like beans without stopping.
Amelia hurried to wipe them away for her.
-Don’t cry. Tell me, what happened to you?
-… -Anna was about to speak, but could not get a word out.
She leaned her body forward in Amelia’s arms. Her mother opened her arms to take her in, and her shoulders quickly became wet. She would have liked to ask for more, but when she looked at her daughter, who could not have continued even if she had wanted to, she patted her back gently and hopelessly.
-Anna, honey. Let’s stop talking. Don’t cry. Darling.
Her father, Giancarlo, was asleep in the room. When he heard movement outside, he pushed open the door to take a look. Seeing his daughter crying so loudly, he wanted to go inside.
Consequently, Amelia signaled for him to stay where he was. Later, she ordered him to return to the room, not to leave without permission. Giancarlo had no other choice and returned.
Anna did not know how long she had been crying. In any case, her mother took her back to the room. Then she no longer had the strength to take a shower, so she lay down on the bed in that little white dress.
-Tired? How about going to bed first and taking a bath when you wake up?
Anna nodded her head, her eyes a little swollen from crying, and looked pitiful lying there.
Amelia felt inexplicably sad. She took a damp towel to wipe her face. Then she touched his forehead and said softly, “Sleep well. Mother is here to protect you.
Anna closed her eyes, but continued to hold Amelia’s hand. Perhaps she was tired from crying. Soon she fell asleep.
When Giancarlo heard that there was no noise outside, he quietly went outside and then crept into Anna’s room. He tried to peek in.
Amelia heard movement from outside, turned her head and looked at her husband. Angrily, she motioned for him to return to the room and go to bed.
Little did she know that Giancarlo had taken a step and entered.
-What’s wrong with him? -he asked with his mouth without producing a voice.
Amelia stared at him angrily and whispered, -What are you doing here? I sent you back to sleep, didn’t I? How insulting!
Giancarlo was silent for a second.
-What are you saying? Who is offensive? Anna is also my daughter, can’t I worry?
Amelia, -It’s already late. Didn’t you see your daughter go to sleep, what are you worried about?
Giancarlo was stunned and decided not to continue with his wife. He looked at Anna.
Amelia had already covered her with a quilt. She was showing a small face on the outside. Her father clearly noticed that his daughter’s eyes were red, -What had happened, why had she cried, who had mistreated her?
After thinking for a while, Amelia was sure that Anna had fallen asleep, so she slowly removed her hand and motioned Giancarlo to come out with her.
The two withdrew gently, closed the door and sat down in the living room.
-What really happened? Do you want to keep making me anxious? My daughter cried like this. As a father, don’t I have the right to know?
Hearing this, Amelia raised her head and glowered at him, -What good is your anxiety? If I knew, wouldn’t I tell you? She didn’t feel well when Anna came back. She also started crying as soon as I asked her some questions. Do you want me to keep asking my daughter when she cries, tell me?
Giancarlo replied, “I don’t want to say that. I thought you knew that, didn’t you? So I was asking you more.
-I have no idea. Anyway, it’s very strong emotions. It should be a love story.
Hearing him talk about the love story, the father immediately convinced him: -Good. A grown-up girl cannot stay at home.
Amelia replied: -Let her sleep well at night. She is tired of crying. I will talk to her tomorrow.
-Okay. Let’s wait until she wakes up tomorrow to ask her.
-We agreed before that if she doesn’t want to tell us, you can’t force her.
Giancarlo said, -What do you take me for? Am I that kind of person? God!
He was so angry that he nodded to go back into the room, but Amelia sat in the room, sighing. She had not told her father that she had seen the car downstairs just now.
Although he didn’t know much about cars, Giancarlo liked them very much and often gave Amelia a bit of popular science. So when he had seen it, he had realized that it was very expensive.
Her family was ordinary. Any entanglement with someone like that would be more than Anna and the other side, but her daughter was very sad.
It did not seem to be good…
-Who allows you to be by my side? Have I rejected you so many times and can’t understand human words? Or is your brain so stupid that you can’t understand them?
-Look at that woman, so ridiculous. She’s still chasing after being rejected so many times, doesn’t she know what etiquette and shame means?
-I think she is purely shameless. He has made it clear that he won’t like her anymore, and she has stubbornly clung to him. Followers are not as disgusting as she is.
-He is vile! She is so vile! If I were her, I would die!
Anna opened her eyes and woke up from the nightmare.
