After the game was over, the lights in the hall lit up. And the host invited the two teams to the stage after congratulating the winners

Matthew and his parents took a seat in the first row. People around them began to whisper in surprise, and they only stopped when Team Wolf showed up on stage © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

The stage was well-lit, but the auditorium was dark. So, Tammy had no idea her parents, whom she hadn’t seen in a long time, had arrived on the scene

Standing on the stage, Tammy smiled while waving at the audience

She sparkled like a diamond, and nothing seemed to be able to dim her light

Meanwhile, Anna looked at Tammy as if she were her biggest fan. She felt proud of Tammy from the bottom of her heart

Finally, I’d like to thank my fans and family for your support and love. You gave me the confidence and strength to believe in myself. Thank you all. | love you!”

Anna was moved to tears after hearing Tammy’s words. She became much colder after becoming a doctor, and she had forgotten how gentle she had once been. But when she saw Tammy, her heart melted. Tammy not only didn’t blame Anna but also thanked her. Anna was happier than she had ever been

“You were supposed to do that!” A girl in the audience shouted

“You’re right!” With a smile, Matthew said. And the girl jumped for joy when Matthew proved her words

Then Matthew continued, “My sister didn’t have a single advertising contract a few years ago. She and her assistant said they wished to promote my company’s new energy vehicle. ‘Wait until you get a world championship; That’s what | told them back then. | had no idea she’d be successful two years later. And now, | couldn’t get them to endorse the new energy vehicle, but our group’s new gaming laptop is the best choice. So, I’m going to let Team Wolf be the promoters.”

The atmosphere became more lively than ever. “The best brother in the world!” exclaimed one audience member. People then started chanting this phrase

“Don’t you think you’re lucky? You met me, and then you have such wonderful children like Matthew and Tammy.”

“No, you’re the lucky one. You met a wonderful woman like me, and | gave birth to a twin for you!”

“Yeah. Thank you, Anna. We are lucky to have each other!”

The award ceremony lasted half an hour. Martin suggested that everyone stand up so that Tammy won’t see Anna and Wayne

A few minutes later, Tammy finally left backstage, followed by Alicia, who was carrying her bag. The moment she saw Peace, Tammy ran up to her and said proudly, “I’m brilliant, aren’t 1?”

Peace tightly hugged Tammy and said, “You’re incredible, Tammy

You’re the world champion now. I’m so proud of you!”

Then Emily hugged them both, saying, “| want to hug the champion too. Come on, guys! Line up behind me if you want to hug the champion.”

Hearing that, Anna and Wayne moved silently to the end of the line. At the same time, Tammy hugged each of them one by one. When she saw her parents, she asked Martin, “Am | dreaming? Martin, can you see them?”

“You can pinch yourself to see if it hurts,” Martin joked. And Tammy began crying after heavily pinching her thigh

With a worried face, Anna hugged Tammy and asked, “What’s wrong, honey? Did you pinch yourself too hard? Does it hurt?”

Wayne mumbled, “My daughter is still that cute little fool.”

Martin asked, “Why are you crying, Tammy? You’re the world

champion now. You made it!”

Tammy hugged her parents tightly. “Why didn’t you tell me you were here?”

“We wanted to give you a surprise! Are you surprised?”
