Children are children after all.
When Anna said that she was fine and wanted to play with them, Matthew and Tammy immediately paid all their attention to the beach and pulled her to their sandcastle happily.
At dinner, Wayne noticed that the rims of Anna‘s eyes were red and asked with a frown, “What‘s wrong with your eyes?”
“Nothing.” Anna şaid, not daring to look into his eyes. She kept her head down and said in a low voice, “I‘m not well today. Maybe I haven‘t recovered from the seasickness and fever.”
Wayne frowned more tightly and gazed at her with his eyes full of concern.
“Have a rest after dinner. The crew of the program will take care of Tammy. Don‘t worry,” he said gently
“OK,” Anna replied in a low voice with an unnatural expression.
At this moment, she had recovered from the shock. When she recalled the night six years ago, her blood froze and the shock was replaced with fear.
The Wright family is powerful in Birmingham, and Wayne is always unpredictable. If he knew that I was the surrogacy mother, my hard–won peaceful life would be turned upside down.
After dinner, Anna hurried back to her room and took out her suitcase in the corner without hesitation…
The next morning, Wayne and Matthew were having breakfast in the restaurant downstairs when Scott came with Tammy,
Scott walked over with composure and sat down opposite Wayne, looking very relaxed.
“We‘ll have a cup of latte, a cup of milk, and two pieces of waffle,” Scott ordered food when the waiter came.
Wayne glanced at the elevator behind him but didn‘t see Anna. “Where is she?” he asked.
“Who?” Scott immediately asked in reply with complacency in his eyes as if he had waited for Wayne to ask this question for a long time.
Wayne looked at Scott with undisguised contempt for his childish attitude and said, “She‘s still in the room? She always dawdles.”
“Anna does always dawdle,” Scott said with a meaningful look. “But she is the most capable and independent woman I‘ve ever seen. Even if she was in a hurry to go back home, she dealt with everything well without disturbing anyone before leaving.”
“She‘s back home?” Wayne‘s face changed slightly. Why did she suddenly go back home?
“You don‘t know that?” Scott said in an exaggerated tone. “I thought that Anna would inform you about it. After all, you are her boss. It turns out that she only told me.”
Last night, Anna said that she would go back to Birmingham in advance to move. Before leaving, she left a note for him and asked him to take good care of Tammy.
Hearing Scott‘s words, Wayne frowned and asked, “Did she say anything before leaving?”
“No comment. I don‘t know anything.” Scott deliberately said.
“Really?”
The next moment, the harsh noise caused by the friction between the chair and the floor was heard
Wayne stood up straight, straightened the hem of his shirt, and said coolly, “Even if you don‘t tell me, I will know it.”
“What do you want to do?” Scott asked. “Go home,” Wayne said briefly. “What?” Scott couldn‘t help raising his voice,
Damn it! I shouldn‘t have shot myself in the foot by telling him about Anna‘s whereabouts! he thought
Seeing Wayne leave in a hurry with Matthew in his arms, Scott shouted at his agent not far away with a darkened face, “I want to go back home too! Book the earliest flight for me!”
The agent was shocked and immediately said, “The filming hasn‘t been finished yet. We can‘t leave here.”
“I don‘t care. I‘ll go back home now!” Scott said angrily. “If you breach the contract, you‘ll have to pay a penalty of three million dollars!”
“…” Scott rubbed his forehead and was speechless, regretting signing the contract with Enlight Media. He felt as if he was like a slave who had sold himself to Wayne.
In the afternoon, all the flights were grounded due to the rainstorm Later, Wayne learned that the airport would be closed in the following two days.
Therefore, he had to stay in the Maldives with Matthew for two more days. And it was already three days later when they arrived home.
At Kingsford Neighborhood.
In the villa, Wayne stood at the door of Anna‘s room and looked at the empty room silently with a frown.
“Mr. Wright, Miss Gabriel came back two days ago and took all her belongings away. She said that she had found a new place to live,” Henry said.
“What else did she say?” Wayne asked.
“She said that she lived here for more than a month and should pay the rent. Then she left five thousand dollars here.”
Henry showed the paper bag in his hand to Wayne and said, “I didn‘t tell her your bank account when she offered to pay the rent. Then on the second day, she brought this bag of cash.”
At the sight of the paper bag, Wayne‘s face darkened. Does she want to make a clean break with me so much? At this time, Matthew pulled the hem of his clothes, looking aggrieved and flustered.
Wayne said impatiently, “Didn‘t you see the room has been empty? She has left. It‘s no use pulling my clothes.“, “.
Hearing that, Matthew pouted and then burst into tears.
Seeing this, Henry and the maids were at a loss. They took turns to comfort him but it was in vain.
Wayne was both angry and distressed. He raised her voice and said, “Is she so good? She‘s not your mother. Why do you like her so much?”
Matthew kept sobbing and couldn’t utter a word.
Henry quickly asked the maids to take Matthew back to his room and then he persuaded Wayne, “Mr. Wright, don‘t be angry. When Miss Gabriel came back, I could see that something was weighing on her mind. I don‘t know what happened to her. Didn‘t she enjoy herself when she was in the Maldives?”
At the mention of this, Wayne frowned more tightly and thought. There was nothing wrong with her when she was in the Maldives except for the day before she came back. She looked fine on the beach in the afternoon but looked absent–minded at dinner. Scott said that she had something to deal with at home. Did anything happen to her family?
“Henry, where does the president of Gabriel Group Frank live?” Henry was stunned for a second and then answered at once, “He seems to live at Lotus Community.”
