Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

It was almost dinner time.

In the cafe on the first floor of the Carousel Hotel, Anna and Frank sat at a table in the corner.

Anna spent most of her working hours in the hotel lobby so she was familiar with the staff in the stores on the first floor.

When the waiter served the coffee, he nodded at Anna with a smile as a greeting.

“Dad, what is it you want to see me about?” Anna asked as she stirred the coffee, feeling a little uneasy.

Frank was about fifty years old. He was refined in manner, wearing a brown suit, and a watch worth more than a million dollars. And the hair at his temples was a little gray.

“Allie went to Jacob‘s engagement party on Saturday. She said that she saw you and told me that you worked here,” Frank said.

Anna had guessed that Allie would tell Frank about what had happened at the party. Thinking that Allie might exaggerate the details, she said coldly, “What else did she say? She must have spoken ill of me.”

Frank frowned and said, “She just told me that you worked here and didn‘t say anything else. Anna, is there any misunderstanding between you and Allie?”

Anna clenched the spoon in her hand with an unhappy look and said, “There is no misunderstanding between us. It‘s just that we don‘t get along well.”

Frank said, “Indeed, Allie has a bad temper. But she is concerned about you. After all, you are sisters. And she…”

“Dad,” Anna interrupted him, “Did you come here just to mediate the relationship between Allie and me?”

Hearing that, Frank glanced at her and said, “I heard that you are dating Mr. Wright. Is that true?”
