Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Chapter 370

370 Have You Ever Thought about Me?

Anna was surprised by Wayne’s attitude because she was honest about everything and wanted to have a peaceful conversation with him. Clenching clenched her fists, Anna snarled, “Wayne, don’t be such a jerk! | apologize for not telling you the truth sooner, and I was wrong. How much longer will you whine about it? I’m not going to hurt my child, and | don’t think my request is unreasonable.”

“He is your child, and you are not being unreasonable. But | believe Leo had discussed my demands with you before we signed the contract. All I want is the child, and I want the child’s mother to stay away from this city for the rest of her life.”

Anna shouted, “So | said I would leave! I’m just negotiating with you now.”

“There’s nothing we need to discuss.”

At that moment, Anna realized the conversation was going nowhere. And she had no choice but to say, “Okay, I made a mistake, and | should not have kept it from you. Ino longer want custody of Matthew. He’ll be devastated if he grows up and discovers this. For the sake of those two children, I’ll drop the case. I’ll go back to the hospital, bye.”

Anna then stood up, grabbed her bag, and walked away without looking back. And Wayne stood up and followed her out the door.

As she walked out the cafe’s door, he yelled to Anna, “Why do you always act like a victim? Did you ever consider anything other than your children? Have you ever thought about me?” 369 Have You Ever Thought abo. Hearing that, Anna frowned and turned to face Wayne, surprised. Wayne remained enraged, “You said that you did not want to hurt

anyone. Everyone believes | owe you something and that | ruined your life.

You could return to England for the sake of Matthew, you would do

whatever you could to cure your daughter. But what about our relationship?”

Wayne was afraid that if he didn’t say anything, Anna would assume he was still arguing with her about the kids. In that case, she would travel to America with Jasper as soon as possible.

Surprised, Anna said, “No, that’s not what | meant.”

Wayne grew cold, but he still said, in a compromising tone, “But, think about how you did it. Have you really not thought about it that way? Call me when you think it through.”

Then he turned and walked into the cold wind, looking very lonely. Anna froze, her emotions jumbled. She had been getting considering custody of her children for some time. It wasn’t until Wayne said those words to her that she then realized she had made a minor but fatal error,

Wayne, I knew that you can not accept not being valued by the people you care about. And/’m sorry about it. However, it isn’t just my fault that we’d ended up in such an awkward situation. Sometimes, you can be quite arrogant and paranoid, Wayne. And it’s always me who compromise in the end. Also, being with you makes my life so full of uncertainties and you know that I’m always insecure. So, I’m always worried about our future so much that Ican’t fully devote myself to our relationship.

Thinking of that, Anna walked to the hospital. On the way, she met a

homeless man.

With a bowl in his hand, the man said to her, “I haven’t eaten in days, 369 Have You Ever Thought abo. young lady. Could you please give me some money?”

Anna assumed he was a liar and said, “How about | buy you some food Instead?”

She assumed he would leave, as other liars. The man, however, nodded and said gratefully, “Yes, thank you.”

Then Anna realized she might run into someone who was in trouble. She took a look around and said, “Okay, follow me. There’s a convenience store nearby. Wait for me and I’ll go get you some food.”

The homeless man looked at the convenience store she pointed to. Then, as he noticed a small alley next to it, his gaze became evil.

Anna went into the store and bought two bags of bread, milk, and a heated frozen pizza. She noticed the homeless man crouching at the entrance to the alley around the corner as she walked out of the convenience store.

Then she walked up to him and said, “I thought you’ve gone! I got you something to eat. These should be enough for you for a few days.” The homeless man took the bag, then immediately opened the pizza bag and began to gobble it down. Feeling sympathetic toward him, she paused for a moment before pulling out her wallet.

‘Aman quietly emerged from the alley as she was looking for cash to give him. From behind her, he covered her mouth and nose before yanking her into the alley. Anna struggled with her eyes wide open, looking to the homeless man for assistance.

Yet, the homeless man appeared unconcerned. He wiped his mouth, threw the bag into the trash, and walked into the alley after Anna was dragged into it. 369 Have You Ever Thought abo.

Meanwhile, in the Carousel group.

“The Gabriel Group appears to have reached an agreement with us, Mr. Wright. However, several of our projects have recently been halted due to funding issues.” Gabe said.

rll be away on business next month,” Wayne replied

“Where are you going?”

“France. I have to go there since the group is not doing well.”

Gabe was taken aback; he had not expected Jasper to wield such power over Wayne. A few seconds later, he asked, “So, who’ll be running the company during this time?”

“Leave it to Ryan.”

Ryan stayed at Peter’s house with his mother after leaving the hospital. Jennie was heartbroken whenever she saw Matthew crying all the time. So,she brought him to her house to give Peter some time to rest. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Matthew skipped dinner because he was exhausted from crying and immediately fell asleep. Jennie made a bowl of milk paste with milk and bananas and bottle-fed Matthew while he was sleeping. And Jennie left satisfied after seeing him drink half of the bottle.

Ryan complained when he realized Jennie only looked after Matthew almost every day, “Mom, I know you adore your grandson, but don’t neglect me. In two months, Ill be leaving for America.”

Jennie gave him a stern look and said, “Stop talking! It all happened because of you. Why didn’t you say you knew Anna was Matthew’s mother from the start?”

Ryan shook his head and said, “I didn’t say anything because I didn’t 369 Have You Ever Thought abo. have the opportunity. I can’t betray Anna because she saved my life.”

Sitting on the couch, Jennie looked at Ryan, and said angrily, “But you

should have at least told me, so I could have been prepared! You helped Ada to check this matter before. If that hadn’t happened, Leo wouldn’t have had an accident. That way, Wayne wouldn’t have known nothing about it. And everything might have been different.”

“I know that and I’ve apologized to everyone. Why do bad things keep happening to me?”

Then aman outside exclaimed, “They always happen to me, too!”

“Wayne!” exclaimed Ryan and Jennie.

Ryan appeared embarrassed and coughed with his head down while Jennie cheerfully approached the door and said to Wayne, “Why are you back now? Have you seen your grandfather? Have you had dinner yet?

“No.”

Jennie said cheerfully, “Ill go prepare dinner!”

There was a lot going on in the Wright family recently, and Jennie had few opportunities to see Wayne. Wayne only came to Peter’s house once a week and always left quickly. He appeared thinner and haggard, and his jawline was more visible.

After Jennie left, Wayne looked at Ryan, who was sitting on the couch, and said, “You think you’re hurt, don’t you? I’m hurt more severely than you and yet I haven’t complained about anything about that! “

Ryan was already feeling guilty, and his face turned pale after he heard Wayne’s words. He said, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to. ljust didn’t think | had a chance at the time. It would have been too strange for me to tell you the truth all of a sudden, after all.” 369 Have You Ever Thought abo.

“You mean, it was always the bad time for you to tell me about what you knew?” Wayne asked as he sat across from him.

Ryan quickly nodded his head. Wayne then stopped talking but stared straight at Ryan, making him feel more guilty. Then Ryan said, “I’m sorry, Wayne. If know anything else in the future, I’ll tell you first.”

“Fortunately, you now have the opportunity. I’d like you to help me out.”

Thinking that Wayne wanted him to pry something out again, Ryan asked, “What?”

“I’m going to France soon, so you’ll be in charge of the Carousel Group”

“Hold on… Are you, are you serious?” Ryan asked in disbelief
