“Thank you, Peace. Relax. I’ll be alright,” Anna said
Peace took Anna’s hand and said, “Remember to call me when you arrive.”
“Sorry. The signal is poor there, so maybe I can’t call you,” Anna replied in a soft voice
“Anna will be boarding soon. Wayne also needs to speak to her, honey,” Karl said as he used a tissue to wipe Peace’s tears
“Do you want to say something?” Peace asked, glaring at Wayne
Wayne said, shaking his head, “Nothing. I had already said what I wanted to say to her before we left.”
Then Anna hugged and kissed the children goodbye
“Mommy, be safe,” Matthew said
Anna tapped him on the shoulder and said, “Remember to get more rest. You might want to spend more time with Tammy’s friend, by the way. I think she’s adorable.”
Matthew gave an awkward smile, thinking Anna had misunderstood something. Anna hugged Tammy then. It wasn’t until then that she realized her daughter was already taller than she was
“You’ll be free when I’m not around, Tammy. But I hope you can spend more time on your studies this holiday.”
Tammy turned her head away and ignored Anna. She’d only found out Anna was leaving yesterday, so she’d been upset all night and hadn’t even eaten
“Well, there’s not much else I need to say. Goodbye, guys.” Waving her hands at them, Anna then walked toward her colleagues. She hadn’t gone more than a few steps when she heard Tammy’s voice,
“Mom, I’ll take care of everyone! I’ll keep an eye on Daddy for you. I guarantee no other woman will ever come close to him!”
Thank you, Tammy. That’s so sweet and considerate of you. I’m so lucky to have a wonderful daughter like you. And guys, I’ll return home safe and sound. I promise. At the thought of that, Anna began to cry. She didn’t turn around, afraid the children would see her tears
The plane flew smoothly through the night, its cruise lights constantly flashing. Anna sat back in her seat, gazing out the window. She couldn’t see anything because it was so dark outside. She wasn’t looking out the window but was thinking about Wayne and the kids as they walked away from the airport
“Madam, how can I help you?” The flight attendant asked as she brought Anna a blanket, pulling her mind back to the present
“A glass of wine, please,” Anna replied
The flight from England to Fleosil would take a day. They had to get to work as soon as they arrived, and there was no time to rest. So, everyone on the plane was sleeping at the time. Anna couldn’t sleep, so she thought a glass of wine might help
Meanwhile in Birmingham, it was already day. Alicia kept telling Tammy to hurry up and leave the house. “Hurry up! The driver has already arrived! We’ll be late if we don’t leave right away.”
Tammy yawned as she left her room. She asked, “Why are you in such arush?”
“I’m not in a rush! This is the first major task I’ve received since becoming your assistant. Of course, I have to take it seriously!”

The meeting was held at a posh downtown club. Alicia and Tammy arrived half an hour ahead of schedule. They each ordered a glass of juice and waited for Evan, the representative sent by the company, to arrive
“Evan!” As soon as she saw a man walk in, Alicia stood up and waved at him enthusiastically
Tammy looked at her and asked, “Have you ever met him? How did you know what he looks like?”
Alicia remained smiling. She whispered to Tammy, “I had planned ahead of time. I went through his Instagram posts from the last two years.”
“Amazing!” exclaimed Tammy, giving Alicia a thumbs up from beneath the table
Evan was nearly thirty years old. He was dressed formally and carried a briefcase. He smiled when he saw the juice in the hands of the two girls Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
He said, “You two are much younger than I anticipated. Working at such a young age should be difficult.”
Tammy casually bit into her straw and said, “All jobs are difficult to do
It has nothing to do with age.”
Alicia stepped on Tammy’s foot under the table. She knew Tammy’s last business partnership was canceled because she had spoken too casually
“Please don’t mind what she said, Evan. We are young, but we know the rules. For this collaboration, we came up with three options,” Saying that, Alicia handed her iPad to Evan
“Let’s not rush into this,” Evan said as he set the iPad down. He ordered himself a cup of tea. Then he continued, “The copy of the post is unimportant because what we really care about is the KOL’s fan
base
Amber doesn’t have a lot of fans, and we have other options. My boss 547 He’s So Screwed! =
finally agreed to this collaboration because I strongly recommended Amber.”
Hearing that, Tammy laughed and said, “You’re quite insightful.” Not wanting Tammy to ruin the talk, Alicia kicked her under the table again, telling her to stop talking. After that, she put on a smile and said to Evan, “Thank you so much.”
Evan said, “Amber is very attractive, so I think maybe she should consider modeling. She’d make far more money shooting posters and videos than she would do business promotions.”
“Sorry, we don’t have that in mind right now. We are only thinking about doing simple promotion work,” Alicia shook her head and said
“No, don’t reject me so quickly. In fact, I believe you should think about it further. I’m free this afternoon.”
At that moment, a waiter served him tea. And then, Alicia stood up to help Evan in pouring the tea, uttering, “I believe we should respect Amber’s opinion on this matter. Amber currently has no plans to pursue advertising endorsements, and she enjoys participating in e-sports behind the scenes
In fact, this is beneficial for…”
“Young people have their own dreams. I understand that,” Evan said
Then, he touched Alicia’s hand
Instantly, the teapot landed heavily on the table with a loud clang after Alicia’s hand shook. She drew her hand back and stared at him, stunned
Tammy was engrossed in a game on her phone at the time. When she heard the sound, she looked up to see Alicia with an embarrassed expression. “What’s wrong?” Tammy asked suspiciously
“Nothing,” Alicia said as she sat down
“Today’s tea isn’t very good, so we’d better talk about it later,” Evan
547 He’s So Screwed!
gave Alicia a disapproving look. He then walked away, carrying his briefcase
“Evan!” Alicia was worried, and she shouted, “Wait!”
Before she could say a word, however, Evan gave her a room key and said, “I’ll be in Birmingham for a few days on business and will stay at this hotel. You can come to see me this evening if you’ve made a decision. We can talk about it again.”
Tammy instantly understood everything when she saw the room card
She frowned and was about to get up and argue with him. Yet, Alicia tightened her grip on her shoulders and told her not to act on impulse
“That p*****t!” Tammy shouted after Evan left
As it was the first time that Alicia faced this situation, so she had no idea what to do. “He just touched my hand,” she muttered
“What?” Tammy yelled after hearing that. She stared at the room card on the table and shouted, “That p*****t is so screwed!”
