Anna felt that she had no way to refuse. So, she had to friend Jennie. Only then did Jennie smile as happily as a child.

Anna couldn’t imagine how such a woman could do something like scamming the Wrights’ property and cheating on Wayne’s father.

Anna showed a puzzled expression but held back from asking her what had happened.

“Then, I’ll go first.” Anna put the noodles and side dishes on her plate and nodded politely toward Jennie.

She had just walked upstairs and placed the plate on the table when Wayne came out of the bathroom. He was wrapped in a bathrobe, his wet hair was dripping down his neck, and there was

a water stain on the bathroom door.

Anna felt her throat tighten after seeing such a scene. It took her a long time to come back to her senses, and then she coughed awkwardly.

“Have some noodles. I just made it myself.” | Wayne glanced at her, then at the noodles, and nodded.

As he sat down on the couch, Anna felt like a small puff of hot air was coming at her and enveloping her. It made her feel uncomfortable, so she moved to the side.

The room was quiet, except for Wayne eating his noodles. Anna listened to the sound of the rainstorm outside the window and thought the sound of him eating made the room seem cozy

Anna inexplicably held her breath. After making sure Wayne wasn’t paying attention to her, she secretly lowered her head and slowly let her breath out.

“You can sleep in the bed at night.” She suddenly heard Wayne say that.

Anna froze and felt that the good news came so suddenly. Her eyes lit up, and she asked, “Really?”

“Yes.”
