“Ah! What are you doing?” Anna exclaimed.
When he loosened his grip on her shoulders, she had thought that Wayne would let her go. But to her surprise, before she could stand steadily, she was dragged back into the meeting room by him.
The next moment, the door was slammed shut with a loud bang and she was pressed against the big conference table by Wayne.
Anna stared at him with her face turning pale, feeling ashamed and angry. “What do you want?”
“You asked me to behave myself?” Wayne said in a deep voice as he loosened his tie, pressed Anna‘s wrists on both sides of her, and looked into her eyes with a darkened face. “Did you always behave as if nothing had happened after you slept with men and then ask them to behave themselves when they wanted to get close to you?”
He didn‘t believe that Anna really didn‘t care about what had happened that night.
Anna turned her face away to avoid his gaze and said angrily, “If you still felt bothered because of what happened that night, I apologize. I shouldn‘t have made you misunderstand our relationship. If you feel I have feelings for you, then I have to say it is just your illusion. Mr. Wright, I don‘t like you, not to mention playing hard to get in front of you. Please let go of me.”
Hearing her words, Wayne was both annoyed. Then he moved his hand and touched her waist, saying, “You‘re really something.”
Feeling his touch, Anna couldn‘t help but shiver with her face full of horror. “What are you doing? Let go of me.”
“You don‘t care about what happened that night, do you? Then it doesn‘t matter to you if we have s*x one more time, right?”
When Anna heard this, her mind went blank. Then she struggled desperately without thinking but it was in vain. – Just now, her words ignited Wayne‘s anger and made him feel that his dignity was trampled by her.
At this moment, Wayne was overwhelmed by his anger.
He had never cared about a woman so much in his life but she cold–shouldered him and didn‘t care about him at all. It was a shame for him.
The moment Wayne was about to take off Anna‘s skirt, Anna widened her eyes in shock. In desperation, she used all her strength to break free and then slapped Wayne hard in the face.
The sound of the slap echoed in the meeting room and Wayne froze. Soon, a distinct palm print appeared on his face.
“You bastard!” Anna pushed him away and ran out of the meeting room in a fluster. After a long time, Wayne raised his hand to touch his aching cheek, then he pulled out a chair and sat down slowly.
After leaving the headquarters of Carousel Group, Anna went back to Carousel Hotel and asked for leave. When she got home, she locked herself in the room, unable to calm down. Lying on the bed, she couldn’t help thinking about Wayne’s crazy behavior this morning and its impact.
Meanwhile, she realized that there were other emotions on her mind besides anger. If it weren’t for what happened six years ago, perhaps…
Realizing what she was thinking, Anna forced herself not to dwell on it. She patted her face and told herself to forget about the ridiculous morning. Then she slept the whole afternoon. In the evening, she woke up and went to the kindergarten to pick up Tammy.
“Who assigned you the task of going on a business trip? Isn’t Wayne chasing you? Why did he ask you to go on a business trip?” Peace said, lying on the sofa with a facial mask.
Anna lowered her head to avoid Peace’s gaze and continued to pack up as she replied, “Don’t talk nonsense. I have nothing to do with Wayne.”
Then she took a look at Tammy who squatted beside her suitcase and ate the lollipop quietly
“Tammy, I‘ll go on a business trip. Auntie Peace will take care of you these days. Be a good girl. Stay in the kindergarten and wait for her if she can‘t pick you up on time, okay?” Anna said.
“OK” Tammy nodded obediently and said, “Mommy, may I ask you a question?” “Go ahead.” “Did you really break up with Uncle Wayne?” Tammy asked. Anna‘s face changed when she heard this. “What do you mean by breaking up? We have never been together.”
“But you once lived together! Weren‘t you together with him?” Tammy said and blinked her eyes.
“When did they live together?” Peace asked. She was so shocked that she sat up at once and her mask almost dropped.
“When you were on a business trip!” Tammy answered. Then she complained, “Mommy. since you were not together with him, why did you live with him? I thought you two would get married. Alas. I‘ve rejoiced too soon.”
Anna was speechless. “Don‘t talk nonsense, Tammy”
Then she explained to Peace, “Scott attracted many reporters to here before so I had to live in Wayne‘s place temporarily to avoid unnecessary trouble.”
Peace looked at her suspiciously. Obviously, she didn‘t believe what Anna had said.
After Anna explained to her for a long time, she nodded reluctantly and said, “Well, even if you went to his place just because of the reporters, I still think that the relationship between you and
Br. Wayne is not that simple. After all, six years ago you two…”
“Ahem!” Anna interrupted her immediately
It was not until then that Peace realized that Tammy was still in the living room. Then she said to Tammy, “Tammy, it’s time to go to bed. Go back to your room.”
“All night! I don‘t want to stay here anyway.” Tammy pouted and said. “Mommy, I‘m angry Why did you break up with Uncle Wayne? I almost had a rich daddy” After saying that, she stamped her feet and rushed back to her room.
Peace looked at Tammy’s back, shook her head helplessly, and asked, “When are you going to tell her that her father is Wayne?”
“I haven‘t decided yet.”
to live with Wayne in the future,” Peace said.
“She won‘t. I know her well,” Anna said.
Peace took off her mask and said helplessly, “Why don‘t you think about being together with Wayne? He treats you and Tammy so well. Can‘t you see that he has a crush on you? Karl told me that Wayne has broken off his engagement with that star. Wayne loves you.”
“He loves me? Then why did he deliberately send me to a far place for a business trip? Forget it. I really can’t bear his love,” Anna said.
“Come on,” Peace curled her lips and said, “He‘s kind enough to you. He even broke off his engagement for you but you still gave him the cold shoulder. If I were him, I would fire you.”
“Whose side are you on?” Anna asked. Peace suddenly smiled meaningfully and said, “Your attitude is interesting.” “What do you mean?“”
“Don‘t you feel that you two are like a young couple in love who quarreled and were in a cold war?” Peace said.
Anna was stunned for a few seconds and then said, “Don‘t talk nonsense.”
“Well, I can‘t persuade you. Think about what I said just now. I’m going to sleep. Go to bed early. Good night,” Peace said and went back to her room.
Then there was only Anna in the living room. Sitting on the carpet, she stared blankly at her suitcase and frowned.
