Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Chapter 270 She’s Just Betting

“So, you and Wayne are back together?” Peace asked while she was on a video call with Anna.

Peace appeared to be in good spirits and was looking forward to hearing the big gossip from Anna.

Wayne had moved into Anna’s bedroom since they had slept with each other that night

Since he didn’t have to go to work anymore, Wayne had more time to spend with Anna and drive her to and from work daily.

As a result, they were more intimate. Anna, however, was still unsure about their relationship.

She couldn’t figure it out on her own and wanted to seek advice from others. Peace, after all, was the only one who knew what was going on between them, which was why she turned to her for help.

“Actually, | think that’s perfectly fine. You and Wayne are already back together, so you don’t have to worry about it too much. His son is your son, and your daughter is his daughter. So, Anna, stop overthinking it.” Peace said patiently.

Anna, on the other hand, appeared unsure.

“But, to be honest, | always felt guilty that | was lying to him,” she replied.

Anna was aware that Wayne had treated her very well recently. He was willing to do anything to please her and even doted on Tammy very much.

That night, Anna would have resisted the temptation hadn’t she known that Wayne wanted to find Matthew’s birth mother.

It was the last bright day before the storm arrived for her. So, she desired to protect herself by doing so.

Anna reasoned that if Wayne discovered she was Matthew’s mother, she could pretend she didn’t know anything about it. Things would be simpler if that was the case.
