Ryan was so shocked that he almost couldn’t a single word.

When he noticed Anna’s suspicious expression, he could only nod and say, “Oh, yes, it’s my mother.”

Meanwhile, he thought, But /’m actually referring to YOU, Anna. Why can’t you see it?

“Oh, the dreaded Oedipus complex. You know, a lot of girls do mind their boyfriends have that complex. I’m going to the office now, bye.” Anna said as she reached for her bag.

“Let me walk you,” Ryan said as he stood up.

Anna waved her hand, and then pointed to the kitchen and said, “Oh, no, you don’t have to do that. Emily’s gone to get your pizza, hasn’t she? You should wait here for her. Don’t worry, | can walk out on my own.”

Anna then picked up her bag and walked out of the cafe.

Emily came back after a while. As she placed the steaming pizza on the table, the iron tray clattered against the table.

Emily asked, “Where’s your sister?”

Ryan said, “You scared the hell out of me! Can you not be so rude?”

Emily’s smile vanished as soon as Ryan said those words. She gave him a vicious glare before saying, “If you don’t want to eat it, then don’t! | can bring it home and feed it to my dog!”

“Oh my goodness! You’re so rude! It’s no surprise you’ve never had a boyfriend!”

“Don’t worry, you’re the very last man I’ll ever marry!”

Hearing that, Ryan froze, and then he remembered what Anna had just said to him. Then, he smiled and lowered his head.

Bewildered, Emily asked, “What are you laughing at?” Ryan kept his head down and ate his pizza without saying anything. However, he didn’t notice that Emily flushed when she looked at him.
