Become Aquaman from Black Robe

Anne is very happy recently.

Because her boyfriend has become the president of the Watt Group, her job within the seven-man team has become extremely easy.

Except for the movie that is currently being prepared, which she must go to, the group will basically not arrange for her to do the rest of the less important work.

Annie doesn't have to deal with the various announcements, commercial performances, model photos, and even some messy things that used to bother her.

She just needs to show her face in public a little while completing the work given by Walter.

At other times, Annie can do whatever she wants.

And what she wants to do most now is to fight criminals everywhere.

Annie believes that this is her job as a superhero. She has been doing it and doing it well, and she wants to keep doing it.

This is the reason why she is happy recently.

Compared to being able to truly be a hero, the bad things that happened in Team Seven seemed to be nothing to her.

Originally Anne was very happy.

Until...she was eating lunch on the set and saw her mother, Donna, and Storm sitting with Donna in the set restaurant.

When she saw her mother, Anne's mood suddenly became very bad.

She couldn't remember how long it had been since she saw her mother.

It seems that since the incident at Compound No. 5, her relationship with her mother has been very tense and she has never contacted her again.

Although Annie later understood that she probably shouldn't blame her mother, but for so long, Annie had become accustomed to her current life, and she didn't want to face her mother who had deceived her.

In other words, Anne needs more time to prepare mentally.

Originally, Annie thought that she would take Kevin with her to see Donna after a while, but she never expected that Donna would show up here.

And he was in the restaurant on the set of Seven and chatting with Storm.

Annie knew what kind of person Storm was, so when she saw Storm sitting with her mother, Donna, the original complaint against her mother disappeared in her heart and was replaced by worry about her mother.

"Mom? Why are you here?"

Out of concern for her mother, Annie quickly walked to Donna and asked.

Donna looked at Annie, at the daughter she had regarded as her pride since she was a child, with a look in her eyes that was a little worried, a little scared, and at the same time inexplicably proud.

Donna looked at Anne with complicated eyes for a long time. She looked Anne up and down, and then said after a while:

"Annie...you are really beautiful now..."

"Mom, answer my question first, why are you here."

"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. I sent you a text message, but... you seem to have blocked me..."

Donna felt a little aggrieved when she said this.

Anne softened immediately when she saw this, her tone was a little softer, she sat down and said to her mother, Donna:

"I...I don't want to block you, but I think...we all need time, time to calm down."

"I know, but I miss you, Annie."

Donna reached out and shook Anne's hand.

For such a long time, Donna came here alone, without her daughter by her side. She felt as if everything in the world had lost its color.

Donna also knew that her behavior made her daughter very sad, and she could understand that Annie wanted to be alone.

But... whenever Donna sees Annie's commercials on TV and listens to her voice, she always feels lonely.

Her husband left her because of her past behavior.

She only has her daughter Anne left in her life at the moment, and Donna doesn't want her daughter to hate her and never have contact with her.

So even though Donna knew that her behavior might be annoying to her daughter, she still came to the set just to meet Annie in person.

Now, Donna has achieved her wish.

"Your mother is very good to you, Xingguang. Although I think this is a matter of your own family, as an outsider I still want to say that there should not be such a big gap between mother and daughter..."

At the dining table, Storm talked to Anne like a close sister.

After hearing what Storm said, Donna also started to say good things to Storm. She said to Annie:

"Before you came, it was...Ms. Storm who was accompanying me. She talked a lot with me."

"...Now is not the time to talk about these things, Mom."

Annie wanted Donna to wait until she got back to talk about these things, but at this moment, Storm interrupted and said:

"Donna, can I talk to her?"

"certainly."

Before Annie could answer, Donna agreed as Storm interjected.

Storm turned to Annie and said:

"I already know what happened between your mother and you because of Compound No. 5, right? Your mother is very sorry for hiding this from you. She just wants to apologize to you."

After Storm finished speaking, Donna immediately answered. She held Annie's hand and said sincerely:

"I know that what I did to you before was very excessive. I treated you as a commodity, a trophy that could be pushed out for exhibition. This is the most excessive thing I have ever done in my life, even if you have always resented it. I can understand that too.

"but……"

"Mom!" Before Donna could finish speaking, Annie stood up and interrupted her: "It's not the right time or place to talk about this matter now. I don't want to make you sad, Mom, but it's time for you to go. And it’s time for me to get back to work.”

"Annie..."

Donna looked at Anne with a look full of grievance. She wanted to say something more, but Anne was not going to listen to her anymore.

Storm stood up at this time and said:

"Are you leaving now? Don't you know that Donna loves you very much?"

"Of course I know my mother loves me!"

Annie shouted over her shoulder to Storm.

Perhaps because the sound was a bit loud, other people in the restaurant also paid attention.

When she noticed the gazes of the people around her, Annie's voice became much softer and she said to the storm:

"But it has nothing to do with you! I don't care what you want to do or what you think, but don't come near my mother, okay?"

"Annie!"

Annie's very indifferent attitude towards the storm surprised Donna.

She seemed to be confused as to why her good daughter, who was kind to everyone, had such a tense relationship with her teammates in the seven-man team.

But the storm understood something.

"...Did Kevin say something to you?"

Storm's smile faded a little, and she asked Annie.

Annie took a deep breath:

"He didn't tell me much, but he told me to stay away from you."

"Wow, it seems like he really loves you and would think of using this way to...protect you."

Storm said meaningfully.

Donna didn't understand what they were talking about, but she heard the names Annie mentioned.

Kevin.

She also remembered another reason why she came to see Annie today:

"By the way, Annie, why didn't you tell me that you found a boyfriend? Shenhai...right? He is a very good man. I am happy that you can find such a boyfriend..."

"Mom! Let me reiterate, now is not the time to talk about this! If you really want to talk to me, please wait until I finish work!"

Anne interrupted her mother rudely again.

She actually didn't want to do this, let alone make her mother sad.

However, when Annie noticed that her mother's eyes sparkled when she mentioned Kevin, Annie suddenly recalled the time when her mother took her to participate in various activities.

At this moment, Annie realized that in fact, Donna didn't care who Annie's boyfriend was.

It was only because Annie's current boyfriend was Kevin, the deep sea of ​​the seven-man team, and now the president of the Walter Group, one of the richest and most charming men in the world, that Donna showed such an expression.

Anne thought that the calmness during this period might make her mother change.

But it's obvious that Annie guessed wrong. Donna may have changed, but in essence, she is still the same woman who advocates money and material things.

Out of her feelings for her mother, Anne was unwilling to continue thinking about it.

She ended the conversation in a hurry and quickly left the restaurant and ran back to the RV where she was resting.

Work on the set will have to wait a long time, and Annie's statement earlier that she would continue working on the set was a lie.

Annie just wanted to find a place to calm down.

Entering the RV, Annie sat on the bed in the RV, rubbing her forehead irritably.

Her mother's visit made her confused, and now she couldn't muster the energy to do the work she should do.

After thinking for a long time, Annie felt that this was not going to work, so she took out her mobile phone and dialed Kevin's number.

The call was quickly answered.

"Annie? What's wrong? Call me at this time?"

On the phone, Kevin's tone was full of worry for Anne.

Because he knew very well that it was still working time, and in order to better do her hero work, Annie would complete her own things very carefully during work.

He won't be distracted by this, and he won't take the initiative to call Kevin.

Unless something is really wrong with her.

"Kevin..." Annie sighed tiredly, "...my mother came to find me."

"Ms.…Donna? What did she say to you?"

"I didn't say anything, just... some personal things, but the problem is that she met Storm. I'm worried that Storm will... hurt her."

"Don't worry, I will arrange for someone to protect Ms. Donna. How are you doing there? Do you want me to go over and accompany you?"

"No, just mind your own business. Everything is fine with me."

Kevin's concern poured a few drops of clear nectar onto Anne's slightly irritable mind, making her feel a lot better.

After chatting with Kevin for a while, Annie hung up the phone and came to the mirror to fix her makeup.

She was still very busy at work in the afternoon. She still had a lot of shooting work to do, so she couldn't spend too much time on makeup.

Although there are makeup artists to help with repairs, sometimes there is no need to trouble these workers for a small matter.

The members of the seven-person team were not easy to take care of. Anne thought that she could reduce the workload of these makeup artists, so she reduced it a little.

Give them less trouble.

Sitting in front of the mirror, while thinking about it, Annie picked up the cosmetics next to her and prepared to touch up the makeup on her face.

However, when she raised her head and looked at herself in the mirror, she was suddenly stunned.

There was Anne herself in the mirror, but it didn't seem like it was her.

Because of Kevin's presence, Annie's combat uniform was designed by herself, a very pure and girly uniform.

But Annie on the other side of the mirror was wearing very revealing clothes, almost like a call girl who was about to go to some unspeakable place.

Anne looked at herself in the mirror, and herself in the mirror looked back at her.

They were stunned at the same time, and almost simultaneously raised their hands to touch their other selves in the mirror.

But just at this moment, there was a knock on Annie's door.

Ashley's voice came from outside the door.

"Starlight? Aren't you ready yet? The afternoon shooting will start soon!"

"I'll go right away!"

Anne subconsciously turned her head and replied to the door.

Then he quickly turned his head back to look in the mirror.

But as expected, the call girl-like version of herself in the mirror had disappeared, and it was still Anne herself who was reflected.

"What the..."

The weird and supernatural phenomenon almost made Annie swear.

For a moment, she couldn't tell whether the thing just now was her hallucination or something else.
