47 What Crush?

“Mommy let’s go.”

Anna heard Tammy’s words, and the next thing she knew, Wayne’s car had vanished around the corner of the street. She coughed in embarrassment.

On the way back home, Tammy held Anna’s hand and said with a sly grin, “Mommy, did you just have a crush on him?”

“What? Who?” Anna denied firmly, “What crush?”

“Then why did you stand there and kept staring at Uncle Wright? I was embarrassed by you!”

“Tammy!” She was speechless, a feverish blush on her cheeks.

When they got out of the elevator, she suddenly remembered what Tammy did, so she pulled her collar and looked at her coldly, “I haven’t asked you yet. How could you casually invite other people to our home? Have you asked for my permission?”

Tammy struggled and said with no regret, “Mommy, let me go. One good turn deserves another. That’s what my teacher taught us.”

“…...” 

Anna didn’t know whether Tammy’s teacher really taught her this kind of thing. On Monday, Anna met Wayne at the gate of the kindergarten after school, who also came to

pick up his child.

“Let me drop you home on the way.” 

Wayne’s black car was parked under an inconspicuous old tree. Seeing that there were too many people here, Anna knew it was impossible to catch a taxi here and difficult to take the subway, so she agreed.

When they arrived, she said politely, “Thank you so much, Mr. Wright. If you were not always busy, I would ask you to stay for dinner.”
