Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

“When are you going to leave?” Wayne asked, pulling Anna’s wandering mind back.

Anna was at a loss for words. She hadn’t thought much about when she would leave, but Wayne seemed to have assumed she would. Then she said, “I found a girl on the island, and I want to adopt her. Maybe I’ll leave once the adoption process is completed.”

Wayne nodded thoughtfully. “Just call Karl if you need any help,” he said calmly after a brief pause. He looked convinced Anna would leave soon.

Anna was trembling and forgot what she was going to say. She knew she couldn’t stay in the hospital any longer, so she left.

Itwasn’t until she stood at the gate of the hospital that she recalled that she simply came here to visit Wayne. Also, she was hesitant about whether to tell Wayne she was pregnant before arriving at the hospital. However, the moment Wayne asked her when she would leave, she was so shocked that she completely forgot what she was going to talk to him about.

In the evening, Henry drove Matthew to Jasper’s house. On the way, he said to Anna, “Miss Gabriel, thank you for looking after Matthew.” Anna felt guilty as she looked at Henry’s sad expression. She asked, “What did Grandpa say, Henry? Is he really willing to let me take Matthew away? Matthew is his only great-grandson. And he puts all of his hopes for the company’s future on Matthew.”

Henry sighed and explained, “Of course he disagreed. He had a big 381 Back to the Beginning fight with Wayne, so he still refuses to go to the hospital to see him.”

Hearing his words, Anna felt even worse about herself.

Henry paused for a few seconds before saying hesitantly, “Wayne told me that he was going to marry another woman after you leave. Peter found him a nice girl, and they will marry soon.”

Anna was having trouble breathing. Her face was turning pale as she was astonished.

As they arrived at the Wright’s residence, Henry opened the car door for Anna and told her, “Now that my task is complete, I’m leaving. You can go back to our house with Matthew anytime you want and let him meet his father.” Then he walked away.
