Virginity in second marriages by Angela
Chapter 1088: I am not eavesdropping on purpose

The man's back was tall and straight, like a pine tree in the wind.

It was Matthew.

Anna recognized for the first time whose back it was and stepped back almost reflexively. She retreated to the corner, standing against the wall, her heart pounding.

"You have disappointed your hopes."

Anna secretly cursed herself.

Suddenly, a familiar female voice rang out.

-Well...I'm sorry, Mr. Matteo. I didn't want to bother you, but today I have this opportunity and I came to find you. In fact, I have admired you for a long time. I know you have always been single. I didn't dare to open my mouth lightly. I take this opportunity and hope you will give me a chance.

Anna's eyes widened in disbelief.

If she had not misheard, that voice-it was obviously Isabella, who had chatted with her a moment ago.

Isabella, particularly popular in the entertainment industry, actually? admired Matthew?

She stood there stunned by the news-how had this happened?

But thinking about it, she was right. There were many women who liked a good man like Matteo, who pursued him. Even the big star was just an ordinary person, after all. It was normal to have many emotions. and also to desire an excellent person.

What would Matteo have said?

"Isabella, so good, beautiful, with a first-class figure and face, is more outstanding than me. You could say that the comparison between the two of us is the difference between heaven and earth." He reflected. Should he have fought for his heart with such a beautiful woman who had declared herself?

Thinking about it, Anna felt a pain in her heart and her nose ached a little.

"What was she thinking? Even if Matteo likes Isabella, I don't care," she thought.

She had already decided to forget him, hadn't she?

Just as Anna was plunging into bitter imagination, the male voice rang out indifferently.

-As you know I have always been single, you should not say such things today.

Isabella froze for a moment. However, being a star, she had a good reaction on the spot. She smiled slightly.

-Maybe after today it will be different? You've been single for so long. I just wanted to try. If not, there will be no problem.

That sentence was so right. You have to try to do what you want.

The brave, the fearless.

Anna, who was standing against the wall, thought the same thing before she felt frustrated. She also felt that if you want it, you can get it by working hard. But one thing he had overlooked, that she never belonged to him.

And so, Isabella was just like her.

-It won't make any difference.

To Matthew, indifferent, extremely cold-eyed, she looked like the woman, the goddess in many people's hearts, in front of him, she had no special glow. Isabella looked at her beautiful face, her lips moved slightly. She was about to say something, but Matthew suddenly gave her a cold sentence. -How much longer do you need to hide around the corner?

What?

Isabella did not immediately understand the meaning of his words, but she took a long time to react and became nervous in an instant, looking around.

"Are there paparazzi? That's impossible, the people at today's banquet are all known, and this is the Atlantic Villa. There is no paparazzi in the North City who would dare to take the opportunity to enter this kind of place, because once discovered, it will be trespassing and legal liability can be investigated and fixed," he thought.

Anna was surprised when she heard Matteo's words and became nervous.

Matthew. What did what he had said earlier mean?

"How long will I have to hide behind listening?" she thought.

Could it be that he had noticed that she was eavesdropping? However, when he had left, his back was to her. How did he know someone was behind him? Did he have eyes behind him? -Don't come out, are you waiting for me to take you out?

There was a slight threat in the light voice, and suddenly coldness went through Anna's body.

She dared not linger any longer. Matthew seemed stable and rarely lost his temper, but it was not easy to get along with him.

He took a deep breath, faced the circumstances and walked out.

Seeing Anna, Isabella was a little surprised at first, then her heart lifted.

Great, she imagined it was a paparazzo coming to take pictures, but luckily it was Anna.

Anna approached them with a depressed expression and stopped when they were some distance away. She bit her lower lip again and again.

-I didn't want to listen to your conversation. I was in the bathroom and happened to hear you talking when I came out. I am... I'm sorry for interrupting you.

He explained the situation clearly so as not to let Matteo know that he had not yet forgotten.

Matteo frowned slightly and glanced at her face.

Anna's scalp tightened, she quickly lowered her eyes and looked at the ground, not daring to look at Matthew at all.

-It's okay, II Isabella smiled frankly, without the embarrassment of being interrupted, and even went so far as to hug Anna's shoulders. I heard us being overheard and thought it was a paparazzo. Fortunately, it was you. It's okay for her to be an acquaintance. But next time you can come in and you don't have to be so restrained and nervous.

Anna could only nod awkwardly.

There was an awkward atmosphere around them, although Isabella was not embarrassed at all, Anna was.

If she had come across the fact that it was someone who had confessed, she could have simply ignored it, but the other side was Matthew. How could she turn a blind eye?

Thinking about it, Anna hastily said.

-Well, I'll go on then. Me, I'll go now.

Probably due to nervousness, Anna could not even speak so fluently that she felt as awkward as a child learning the language.

After uttering those mumbled words, Anna smiled shyly at Isabella and then prepared to leave.

At that moment, Matteo suddenly spoke.

-Wait.

Anna paused and her heart beat much faster: did he want to blame her? Otherwise-he would not have asked her to leave.

However, after waiting for a long time, Matteo did not speak at all. Isabella did not know why either. She only looked at Matteo and saw that his gaze was always fixed on Anna. She blinked and suddenly understood something.

-Do you have something to talk about? Then I won't bother you.

After finishing, Isabella left lightly. The officer was waiting for her not far away, and when he saw her coming, he began to complain in a low voice.

-Really, aren't you afraid of being recorded if you say these things in a place like this? Putting it on the Internet is enough to be defamed.

-Who's going to slander me? Will it be worth it if I go after a man I like? Then the three views of this world are too strange. Is it any wonder that only men can chase women?

The officer replied, -You really want to piss me off, come on!

Before leaving, Isabella could not help but look at Anna and Matthew, which was significant.

Anna was receiving his gaze. Her scalp had gone numb. No one had given a voice.

Matteo left her, but remained silent. Anna felt only a gaze glued to the top of her head, and she had not left him in a long time.

She was so nervous that she could only take the initiative to break the silence.

-I'm sorry. I didn't mean to eavesdrop, really.
