“Oh, no, Peace. It’s not that simple.” Anna said with a frown.
Peace sat up straight and seemed to become serious. It was the first time she hadn’t taken Anna’s side. She said, “Yeah? Tell me, what do you think? What do you want from Wayne? You’ve always thought that Wayne asked too much of you, and that was unfair. But, do you think you’re being fair to him? He doesn’t even know that Tammy is his daughter.”
Anna fell silent, and then the room became quiet.
Peace got up after a long time and tapped her on the shoulder. She said, “Anna, you should think about this. I know it’s your own business. But, as your friend, I’d like to say a few words. I think that you should tell Wayne the truth and your thoughts. If he does sue you, then there is no reason for you to panic. Don’t forget that Jasper will support you. So, he’ll never let Tammy be away from you.”
After Peace returned to her room, Anna sat alone in the living room and thought about that until midnight.
I often weighed the pros and cons when I dated Wayne. But I didn‘t think there was anything wrong with that. I‘m a mother, and
Matthew has been taken away from me by Wayne five years ago. So, I have every night and reason to resent Wayne.
Anna thought.
Peace called Karl after seeing that there was a missed call from him.
“Hey! What’s up?” she asked.
Karl said, sounding a little excited, “Oh, hey, I’m coming back from a business trip tomorrow. Then, I can have some time off. I’d like to take you on a trip! Isn’t that nice?”
“Oh, no! You have a vacation, but I don’t. Besides, why would I want to travel with you?”
“I heard Wayne and Anna had a fight. So, I’m doing this to give them to make up. Let’s go on a trip with them, shall we? Then, it will be a double date!”
Peace said indifferently, “That’s none of my business. If they want to fight, they can fight all they want. You want to be a peacemaker, burl don’
As if he hadn’t heard that, Karl continued, “Which one do you want to go to, a rural island or Maldives?”
“The island.
“Then it’s settled. I’ll prepare the stull we’ll need, so you don’t have to bring anything.”
Karl learned a lot of things after spending so much time with Peace. So, he knew that sometimes when she said “no”, it meant “yes”.
No matter what she was saying, he could tell whether she liked it or not just by hearing her tone.
Carly the next morning.
Lalked to Annd about taking her on a trip before she went to work.
“It’s a food opportunity, Anna. There are certainly not many tourists on the island at this time of year. So, it’s just the right time for you to have a good talk with Wayne.
Anna frozelor a moment and inally nodded. When Peace noticed the obvious dark circles under Anna’s eyes, she knew she hadn’t slept well last night,
She probably spent the night thinking about what she would say to Wayne about it.
Peace thought.
“By the way, what are you gonna do this afternoon7″ Peace asked before she left.
“I’ll go to Peter’s to see my daughter.”
“Geez, you’re so clever! You put Tammy there on purpose, didn’t you? In that way, you’ll have a perfect reason to see your son.”
“He’s my son, so I can see him.”
“Yes, he is your son. But, you are the only one who is afraid to admit that.”
Peace took the keys and said, “Well, I’m going to be late now. I have to go, bye!”
Anna had mixed feelings when she realized that Peace had just been sarcastic. She felt that Peace meant that she was a scheming woman and was getting a lot of benefits from hiding the secret from Wayne. However, she was the only one that knew she was doing it because she wanted her kids to get along well with each other.
Then, Anna also began to doubt herself. She even felt a little uneasy when she met the two children at the Wrights’ house in the afternoon. When she heard Peter compliment her on how well she treated Matthew, she even blushed.
Matthew is my own son, so surely, /‘ll be good to him. Anna thought to herself.
After lunch, Tammy and Matthew rested in Anna’s arms. Tammy couldn’t stop talking and looked like she enjoyed the environment of the house.
“Mommy, you haven’t come here with Mr. Wright for a long time. What happened?” Tammy suddenly said.
“Oh, he’s very busy. An accident happened in the hotel, so he’s got a lot to deal with.”
“But why aren’t you going to work?”
“Because I’ve been on vacation lately, honey. Then, I can spend more time with you two. Are you glad about this?”
“Of course!”
Speaking of that fire, Anna turned her head and rested her chin against Matthew’s head.
She said, “Matthew, honey, I’m so sorry. You were in the freezer that day, so I didn’t see you. I’m really sorry.”
Matthew had been quietly listening to the two of them. After Anna said this, Matthew immediately stood up and took his drawing board. He then wrote, “it’s okay! I know that if you saw me, you would definitely take me out.”
Seeing how cute and sensible Matthew was, Anna couldn’t help but gently rub his head with relief and said, “Matthew, you’re a good boy. You know, I’ll never leave you behind.”
Matthew immediately wrote on the drawing board again, “Really???”
He showed a nervous expression and had written three question marks. He looked as if he really didn’t believe that Anna would always be there for him.
“Of course.” Anna immediately reassured him. She didn’t know why he was so worried, so she assumed that the fire had traumatized him. Then, she felt remorseful.
Tammy, however, sighed like an adult and said, “Mom, Matthew is worried that Mr Wright will date another woman. Actually, I’m womed about it too.”
Anna immediately froze. Then, the two children began to tell her what they thought about it. After that, Anna realized that the
Wilsons had visited Peter several times in the past few days, especially Charlotte’s mother. Evelyn always came here and brought up
