It had already past midnight when Wayne came out of the shower. The hazy moonlight shone nto the room and looked like fog.

As the bathroom lights were turned off, the moonlight made the room even colder.

Anna felt Wayne hug her from behind. The heat from his body surrounded her and made her eel hot and uncomfortable, like she was being choked.

She felt annoyed and couldn’t help but struggle. “Sorry, did I wake you up?” Wayne whispered tentatively.

She didn’t say anything more but just nodded. A few seconds later, she said, “Yes. Why are you back so late?”

“I took care of a few things.” “Did you finish it?” “Well, not yet.”

Anna kept thinking about that message from Ada. After being silent for a moment, she asked, “How long does it take? Will you still be able to attend the send-off party next weekend?”

Hans and his team were going to stay in Birmingham for half a month, and the hotel was holding them a farewell dinner at the end of next week. It was a significant event, and as the boss, Wayne had to attend.

“I will. Don’t worry.” He replied. Anna frowned and kept herself from asking more questions.

Just as she was getting upset, she heard Wayne say, “I knew a dcotor in Germany and he maybe knows how to cure Matthew. But, the problem is, it’s hard to get an appointment with him.

So, I’m taking Matthew to Germany tomorrow, and I’ll be back as soon as possible.”

Anna froze, realizing that she was overthinking and had misunderstood Wayne. “Are you taking him there by yourself?”

“Yes, but don’t worry, it won’t take long. It’s just that you’ll have to take care of the team all by yourself.”

“That’s OK. I hope Matthew can be cured.”
