Chapter 544 Stay Away From Me!
While the fashion show was going on, a black car arrived at the office building. Matthew stepped out of the car, carrying a large delivery box. He then told the driver, “You don’t have to wait for me. You can get off work now.”
“Thanks, Mr. Wright.”
The car drove off as Matthew walked into the building. He stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the top floor. As soon as Matthew left the elevator, he saw the door to the apartment. When he opened the door, he heard the sound of running water from the bathroom
/s it Tammy? But… Didn’t she go to Lemon’s show today? Is this show over now? Thinking of that, Matthew removed his jacket and placed the box on the table. He then took a can of lemon tea from the refrigerator
At the same time, Alicia was taking a hot bath in the bathroom. She thought, This city is fantastic! Even the hot water here is better than that in my hometown. Amber’s apartment is wonderful! I’ve always wanted to live in a beautiful house like this one
After the shower, Alicia wrapped herself in a large bath towel. She looked around before realizing she hadn’t brought her clothes with her
And she paused for a moment before deciding to go out and get her clothes, assuming that she was the only one there. Then she walked out of the bathroom
The instant she saw a boy standing in the living room, she screamed
Panicked, Amber dashed back into the bathroom, shut the door, and yelled, “Who are you?! What are you doing here?!”
Hearing that, Matthew froze. He frowned and asked, “| should be the one to ask you that. How the hell did you get into MY HOUSE?”
“What? What are you talking about? This is Amber’s house!”
“Who is Amber? And who the hell are you?” Matthew asked as he approached the bathroom. Knowing that Tammy often forgot to lock the door when she left the house, Matthew thought, 7he girl must have snuck in the house. What is she up to? Also, who the hellis Amber?
In the bathroom, Alicia’s face had turned pale from fear. She stood in the bathroom helplessly, only wearing a bath towel. And she regretted not taking the phone into the bathroom right now. Then, through the translucent bathroom door, she saw Matthew standing just outside the door. And when she saw the toilet plunger next to her, she came up with an idea
The next second, Alicia yanked open the bathroom door and dashed out, holding the toilet plunger in the air. “p*****t!” she yelled while pointing the plunger at the boy a few steps away. “Don’t get any closer! I’ll call the cops right now if you get any closer!”
“You’ve got to be kidding me! | should be the one to call the police!” With a long face, Matthew said impatiently
Alicia’s heart skipped a beat when she saw his arrogant demeanor
And she snarled, “Don’t think they won’t believe you’re a p*****t just because you’re a cute guy!”
“For the record, YOU BROKE INTO MY HOUSE! | own this place! Who are you to call me a p*****t?! Are you out of your mind?” Matthew snarled back, his face flushing from anger
“You’re insane! This is my boss’s house, not yours!”
“Who is your boss?”
Alicia quickly grabbed her phone from the coffee table before
543 Stay Away From Me! Matthew could finish his sentence. “I’m calling the police right now,” she said as she dashed behind the couch
“OK, call them as you want,” Matthew said, nodding his head with composure. After saying that, he turned around and walked away
“Where are you going? You can’t leave here!” Alicia yelled
“It’s my house, so | can do whatever | want here. Why should | listen to you?” Without even turning around, Matthew replied with hostility. He then opened the refrigerator door, took a packet of ice from it, and placed it on his forehead as Alicia just hit his forehead with the plunger. He thought, 7hat lunatic almost poked me in the eye! Even if she doesn’t call the police, | will!
“Wait a minute! I’m calling them right now.” Alicia held the phone in her left hand and clutched the bath towel she was wearing with her right hand. She couldn’t find a place to put the toilet plunger, so she threw it on the floor. In a panic, she dialed 911
“Why don’t you stay in the bedroom?” Matthew asked impatiently
“Why?” Alicia asked, her gaze fixed on him
“The police will be here in a few minutes. Do you want them to see you dressed like this?”
“I’m free to wear whatever | want because I’m at my boss’s house! It’s none of your business!”
“Fine,” Matthew said, “I don’t care.” He sat on the couch and applied an ice pack to the bruise on his head. At that moment, he already had a rough guess as to why Alicia got into the house
“Who is this girl in your apartment?” he texted Tammy while waiting for the police. At the time, Tammy was walking the runway. So, she didn’t have time to check her phone
Then Alicia gripped the bath towel tightly. After that, she was surprised to find that she couldn’t tie the towel after the water dried on her body. She panicked, and she could only move slowly towards the bedroom
Meanwhile, Matthew appeared much calmer and relaxed in comparison to her. He was bored, so he grabbed his phone and began playing Tetris
Seeing that, Alicia thought to herself, What the hell are you thinking? Why are you still in the mood for playing games when you broke into someone else’s house?
Alicia was enraged, but she needed to change her clothes desperately. After entering the bedroom, she quickly locked the door
Hearing the door closing, Matthew cast a cold glance at the bedroom door ee
Meanwhile, Lemon was in the second half of his show. And Wayne, Anna, and their friends were chatting in the front row of the audience
Peace displayed the news on her phone to Anna. She said, “Mona is amazing! She immediately bought rumors from the press about those celebrities.”
Anna said, “She’s been here for a long time, so she has plenty of experience. She’s not the same little girl who just graduated from college.”
“Seems like you’re very proud of her.”
“Why shouldn’t | be? I’m kind of her mentor. And she learns from the best mentor.”This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“Wow! Professor Wright! You’re really good at bragging!”

While Anna and Peace were still bickering, Mona’s secretary ran out of the backstage area and rushed to them, calling Anna in a panic, “Mrs Wright!”
“What’s the matter?” Anna put her smile away, looked at the secretary seriously and asked
After the secretary whispered to her and told her what happened in a low voice, Anna widened her eyes in shock. Wayne was close to her, so he heard everything the secretary said. And then, he frowned
Peace couldn’t hear anything because she was separated from Anna by a small table. She put down the bag of nachos in her hand and asked, “What’s the problem? Why are you so surprised?”
Anna did not respond to her. “| need to go backstage,” she said calmly as she stood up and straightened her dress
“Go ahead,” Wayne said with a nod
Peace became even more intrigued as she watched Anna leave. She set the bag of nachos down and asked Wayne, “What’s wrong? What were you two muttering about?”
“She’s my wife. | can mutter with her all | want,” Wayne said, looking at her
“Cut the crap! Just tell me why Anna is leaving,” Peace said
“Mona is in labor,” Wayne said calmly
Peace’s eyes widened in surprise. She turned back and saw that Anna had just left the audience
“If you want to go, you’d better keep calm. Don’t let anyone notice you,” Wayne warned Peace in a low voice
At the same time, Mona was moaning in pain on the couch in the backstage lounge
Anna was preparing to take Mona to the hospital when Peace arrived backstage. At the sight of Peace, Anna said to her, “Peace, please stay here
Tell Andrew to go straight to the hospital after the show.”
“No, I’m going to tell him right now. He needs to know about this.”
Mona yelled once more. “Don’t tell him yet, please! Just wait until the show is over,” she said, grabbing Peace’s arm
“Why? No!”
“Don’t tell him. We’ve been preparing for this show for months, and Daydream is competing with us. Andrew has to be here. If both of us leave, something will definitely happen,” Mona said
Peace wasn’t convinced, but she had no choice but to agree. “OK, I’m not going to tell him. Don’t worry, I’ll be here. By the way, Wayne is still here, too. Anna, hurry up and take Mona to the hospital,” she said
“Ah! Mona, your water has broken!” In the chaos, Mona’s secretary exclaimed
