Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

It was in the rush hour, and Anna was stuck in traffic. She clicked on the text message and read it. After that, she frowned and dialed him directly.

“Mr. Brown, why do I have to stay at the hotel too?”

Mr. Brown replied, “I don’t know, this is the notice from the headquarters. They probably think that if guests have an emergency, you can handle it for them. Do you find it inconvenient?”

“My daughter is on summer vacation and stays home every day. Can I take her with me?” “Are you serious?” Mr. Brown asked unhappily. Anna replied awkwardly, “I just asked off the top of my head. Fine. I’ll figure it out.” After hanging up the phone, Anna stared at the screen indignantly. It was so unfair.

I didn‘t even complain about this temporary arrangement, so how come I couldn‘t take my daughter to check–in? Anna thought.

She decided to send her daughter to Peace’s place. Luckily, Peace was on vacation recently and was home every day and night.

“I didn’t want to bother you, but it came all of a sudden.”

Peace readily agreed, saying, “I’m Tammy’s godmother, so of course I’ll take care of her. Don’t worry. By the way, tomorrow is Saturday, are you off work? Shall we go out shopping?”

Anna explained, “I have to take Tammy to swimming lessons tomorrow first. Every weekend, the swimming pool holds a parent-child class, and parents have to go to the class together. If I can get out of there early, I’ll call you.”

“What is it about? It’s not like she’s going to kindergarten,” Peace asked, feeling puzzled.

When Anna went to the bathroom, she sat on the couch, poked Tammy’s shoulder, and asked, “Tammy, why do you suddenly want to go to swimming lessons?”

Tammy was sitting on the carpet watching cartoons. She blinked and asked, “What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”

Peace pinched her face and said, “Your mom can’t swim at all, and neither can you. Why did you take the initiative to learn how to swim? When you were little, you cried every time you took a bath *
