Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

“I just called you, but you didn’t answer. So, I came straight here.” Wayne said, looking slightly exhausted,

Anna clenched her grip on the bag and said, “Scott came over to shoot the show at my house today, so | didn’t check my phone. Thank you very much for the cake. Natalie is already sound asleep and it’s cold tonight. Ill drop her home tomorrow.”

Hearing that, Wayne frowned and said, “Then I’d better pick her up the next morning.”

Anna could tell what he was thinking. She thought, Wayne, you didn’t have to come here to pick up Natalie because there are plenty of maids and drivers that you can order to do so. Besides, you’re not close to Natalie, and you two don’teven like each other. So, you must be using picking Natalie up as an excuse to see me, right?

Then Anna nodded and said, “Well, it’s late. If you don’t have anything else to say to me, you should go home now. Wayne, good night.”

Wayne looked disappointed by the fact that she was leaving. He nodded, then opened the car door. The cold wind was blowing, and he suddenly coughed violently. He appeared to be so uncomfortable that he blushed.

Immediately after hearing Wayne’s coughing, Anna stopped and looked at him worriedly. “Wayne, are you all right? It has been raining heavily for several days, and it’s freezing. Many people in the city have caught the flu and are in the hospital. You look like you also got a flu,” Anna asked, concerned to.

Wayne put his hand over his mouth as if he didn’t want her to hear him cough. But he was clearly in pain. Then he answered, trying his best to. refrain himself from coughing, “Really, I’m fine, Anna. Don’t worry about me.”

Anna frowned and said, “Wait! But you don’t look fine to me. Why don’t you come home with me? You appear to have a fever. Allow me to take your temperature and give you some medication. It’s fine if you only have a cold. But if you have a fever, you’d better go to the hospital for a checkup.”

“Okay, thank you.” Wayne nodded and said. At the same time, his eyes were dazzling with rays of hope. He thought, Anna, you still care about me! Otherwise, you wouldn’t have asked me to stay at your house and offered to take care of me. Does it mean that | still have a chance to be with you? Ifso, I must seize the opportunity to get you back!

Wayne had been to her apartment before. He had mixed feelings when he saw Tammy’s shoes on the shoe rack by the door. He thought, Anna, everything would’ve been different if! hadn’t said those hurtful words to you and put you in danger so many times before.
