Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Alter seeing Wayne, Jennie was stunned. Seeing that, Anna immediately pressed her on the shoulders and forced her to sit down.

‘Til give you two some privacy/’ Anna said, then put the apple and the knife on the nightstand. As she walked past Wayne, she showed him an encouraging smile.

Wayne and Jennie misunderstood each other for 20 years, so they couldn’t solve these problems overnight. Wayne resented Jennie, and she kept holding on to him. Therefore, they still needed more time to get along and understand each other.

Jennie appeared even more uneasy after Anna left. She said, ‘Til leave here this afternoon, Wayne. | won’t bring you any troubles.*’

Wayne frowned at her and said, “The doctor recommended you stay in the hospital for a week. So, why are you leaving this afternoon? If the doctor knows that you’ve left, he’ll blame me for it. You’re making it difficult for me.”

Jennie froze, unsure of how to respond, Wayne frowned again, this time in an unnatural way. They were both silent for a long time.

Wayne then said, breaking the ice, “William was apprehended by the police. He has previously committed other crimes, so he might be sentenced to life imprisonment this time. Is there anything else you’d like to say to him before the trial?”

“No,” she replied quickly. Then Jennie let go of the sheets and then relaxed. She felt she could no longer pretend she didn’t know anything

about Wayne’s true identity because Wayne already knew everything. 352 The Reunion Rather than avoiding the subject, she was forced to face the harsh reality.

Wayne said with a nod, “My brother is not badly hurt. He just has a high fever but hasn’t woken up yet. They took him back to Birmingham yesterday, and he is now in the military hospital. You can go there if you don’t want to stay here any longer.”

Jennie looked surprised and asked, “What did you just call him?” She hadn’t expected Wayne to be willing to admit that Ryan was his brother. She assumed she would be content if Wayne would treat him as if he were a stranger.

Wayne avoided her gaze and said, “No matter what, he’s dad’s only son and grandpa’s only grandson. He will eventually become the heir to the Wright family and the Carousel Group. | will be responsible for his life later on.”

Hearing that, Jennie felt a sharp pain in her chest. Her greatest fear was that Wayne would doubt himself after knowing all this. However, it Was inevitable.
