Chapter 55 – After the One-Night Stand with a Heartless Billionaire

When Anna walked out of the hotel with her handbag and looked at her watch, it suddenly occurred to her that she was so busy this day that she forgot to pick up Tammy

Then she took a taxi in a hurry.

“Sir, please take me to Blue Castle Bilingual Kindergarten!”

On her way to the kindergarten, she called Eleanor anxiously.

“Tammy was picked up?” Anna exclaimed in the taxi. “Who picked her up?” On the other end of the line, Eleanor explained to her nervously, “Mr. Wright picked her up. Mr.

Wright and you often come to pick up each other‘s children and we think that you two are friends.

So when he said that he came to pick Tammy up, we let Tammy leave with him. Is there any . problem, Miss Gabriel?”

“No, there is no problem,” Anna said and breathed a sigh of relief. “Thank you, Eleanor.” After hanging up the phone, she saw an unread message from Wayne. I‘ve picked Tammy up. She‘s at my home now.

After reading the message, Anna immediately told the driver to take her to the Kingsford Neighborhood and then called Wayne.

Soon, Wayne‘s voice came from the other end of the line. “Hello?” His low and magnetic voice made Anna think of his whisper when they had s*x. Anna suddenly felt a little suffocated, so she opened the window to breathe in some fresh air.

“Thank you for picking up Tammy. I‘m so busy today that I forgot to pick her up.” “You‘re welcome,” Wayne said calmly. “I was just doing what I have promised you.” “What?” Anna was stunned and asked, “What did you promise me before?”

“Since you are busy with the centennial celebration these days, I‘ll send Tammy to school and pick her up from kindergarten every day. And you and Tammy will live at my house these days. Have you forgotten the request that you made?” Wayne said.

“What?” Anna was surprised and asked anxiously, “When did I make such a request?”

After a few seconds of silence, Wayne‘s serious voice came from the other end of the line. “The night before yesterday.”

When Wayne‘s voice came from the other end of the line, Anna felt as if he was whispering in her ear and her face was flushed when she thought of that night.

Did I make such a request? I have no impression of it at all.

Anna summoned up her courage and said, “That‘s impossible. How is it possible that I make such a request?”

I was just drunk, not crazy.

“You are doubting me?” Wayne asked. “You mean that I‘m lying to you by making up a story?”

Anna was speechless. At the same time, she thought, Yes, there is no reason for Wayne to make up a story and lie to me. I might really make the request when I was drunk.

Although Anna still didn‘t want to believe that she really made such an unreasonable request, she thought she was very likely to do so because she was so drunk that day.

Then she stammered in embarrassment, “I didn‘t mean that. I was drunk that day and I don‘t remember what I said that night. I… I‘m going to pick Tammy up right now.” Then she hung up the phone.

The driver drove fast and soon Anna arrived at the Kingsford Neighborhood. It was getting dark. Wayne and Matthew as well as Tammy were in the living room. When Matthew saw Anna, he rushed over happily and held her legs

Anna caressed his head and said, “Matthew, be careful. Your hand is injured. Does it still hurt?”

Matthew shook his head and looked at Anna with attachment.

His hand recovered nicely and the plaster had been removed. But the doctor said that he still should be careful with his hand.

The maid was putting the dishes on the table. When she saw Anna, she smiled and said, “Hi, Miss Gabriel. The dinner is ready. You may have dinner now.”

Anna was stunned and then said with an embarrassed look, “No, thanks. I‘m here to pick up Tammy We‘re leaving now”

“Let‘s have dinner together.” At this time, Wayne said as he closed the book in his hand and walked over from the sofa.

Seeing this, Tammy nodded and said, “Mommy, I‘m hungry.”

Thinking that it was impolite to refuse again, Anna had no choice but to sit down at the table helplessly

“Mommy, look at the smoked salmon. I told Uncle Wayne that you liked smoked salmon fish most and he specially asked the cook to cook it for you!” Tammy said happily and blinked at Anna.

Hearing this, Anna felt even more embarrassed. She took a glance at Wayne and said shyly, “Thank you.”

Wayne just nodded as a reply. When he was about to get some food, someone suddenly tugged at his sleeve. Then he lowered his head and saw that Matthew was pulling his sleeve with one hand and raising his drawing board with the other hand. And on the drawing board was a big word, “Juice“.

Wayne then poured some juice for Matthew.

Seeing this, Matthew became anxious. He grabbed Wayne‘s sleeve and kept shaking it while motioning Wayne to look at Anna.

It was not until then that Wayne realized that Matthew was asking him to pour some juice for Anna. Then he raised his eyebrows and looked at Matthew with a helpless smile.

While Anna was eating silently with her head lowered, a good–looking hand suddenly came into her view and poured some juice into her glass.

She raised her head in surprise and met Wayne‘s calm gaze. She was flattered and immediately said, “Thank you, Mr. Wright.”

“Matthew asked me to pour you some juice just now. Have more if you like it,” Wayne said naturally

Although he said it as if he didn‘t do it voluntarily, his words made Anna have an illusion that she was a wife who was spoiled by her son and husband.

Since Matthew liked the food cooked by her, Wayne and Matthew always went to her place for dinner before and it was not the first time that they had had dinner together. However, due to what had happened the night before yesterday, Anna found it embarrassing to have dinner with Wayne.

What she didn‘t know was that she had fallen into Wayne‘s “trap“..

Yesterday, on the way Wayne sent Anna back home, Anna said casually that he didn‘t need to be responsible for her and asked him not to take the one–night stand seriously

However, her attitude made Wayne feel displeased. The more he thought about her words, the unhappier he was.

Don‘t take it seriously? Let me see if you can really pretend nothing has happened, Wayne thought

The two kids seemed to eat slowly on purpose and it took them almost two hours to finish the dinner

Finally, urged by Anna, Tammy finished the food on her plate.

It was dark outside. Anna looked at the time and surprisedly found that it was already ten o‘clock at night.

“Tammy, where is your schoolbag? Pack it quickly. We have to go now.” Tammy blinked her big eyes and asked, “Mommy, aren‘t we staying here tonight?”

Hearing this, Anna blushed and said, “Who said we‘ll şiay here for the night? We‘ll go home now. Go get your schoolbag now.”

At this moment, Wayne‘s voice came from the living room “It‘s so late now. Just stay here tonight. The guest room has been cleaned.”
