Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Chapter 40

She was suddenly gratified and tried to say something nice, “Mr. Wright, you can eat as much as you can. There is enough lasagna. I can cut more slices for you if you want.” Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Wayne was eating. He unconsciously twisted the end of his brows when he heard her words.

After Anna left at noon, Tammy kept asking Wayne questions, “Uncle Wright, don’t you think my mommy is really good? She can make delicious food and take care of others. Matthew also likes my mommy. You can’t find another woman like her in the world. Isn’t

she much better that that big star?”

Wayne could only smile to her, “Yes, your mommy is good.” It is understandable that kids think no one is better than their mom.

Tammy obviously didn’t mean that. When she heard Wayne compliment her mom, her face was suddenly lit up.

“Uncle Wright, do you think my mom could be your wife?” Wayne was stunned by her suggestion.

Although Wayne knew that Tammy liked to stay with him, he never expected that this little girl wanted to be a matchmaker for her mother and him. He paused for a while and only touched Tammy’s head, not answering her question.

“Matthew also likes my mommy a lot.”

Tammy played her trump card and blinked, “Ask Matthew. He must want my mommy to become his mommy.”

Wayne looked at Matthew on the bed and hesitated to ask, “Really? Matthew?” Matthew nodded vigorously.

Wayne frowned. And Tammy kept saying, “Uncle Wright, Matthew doesn’t like that big star at all. Shouldn’t you consider his opinion if you want to get married? My mommy said that she would ask my opinion if she planned to find me a stepfather.”

Does this mean that if I say yes Anna would probably agree with it? Confused and amused by Tammy, Wayne asked, “Tam, haven’t you already got a father?”

“Well, yeah. But I could only see my father once or twice a year as I grew up.” Tammy sighed like an adult and said with a bitter face, “I’m pitiful, aren’t I?”

Tammy was secretly surveying him with her eyes while speaking.

Now Wayne could understand why Tammy would say so. No wonder Tammy takes Anna‘s last name. I guess Anna must‘ve separated from her husband a long time ago because they weren‘t on good terms. How can she blame me? Does she care enough about her daughter and know what her daughter really wants?

While Wayne was analyzing the relationship between Anna and her husband, Tammy and Matthew looked at each other, with a light of happiness of victory in their eyes.

“Are you sure no one saw what happened that night?”

In the café of a golf club, Ada, in a golf outfit, was drinking coffee leisurely and waving to the producer who was swinging the golf club outside the window once in a while, a bright

smile on her face.

However, her face darkened when she turned around to look at her agent.

“Don’t worry, Ada.” The agent looked relaxed, “I have people ask the servants. All of them in the house were busy taking their gifts that you gave them. No one was on the spot at that moment. When they arrived, the boy had been lying on the ground for a while.”

“It’s not a difficult thing to hide it from those fools. Even though one of them have seen it, I can buy them off. The problem is that the old man ordered his men to investigate in the house that night. Are you sure they haven’t found anything? It’s impossible to know what the old man is thinking.”

“Of course, they haven’t found anything. Do you know what those servants said to my men?”

“What?”

“They said they had never seen Mr. Wright bring any woman home, let alone stay overnight. A maid saw you on his bed! How can you not be clear from suspicion?”

Ada suddenly became complacent, “Having pretended to be Wayne Wright’s fiance for six years, I certainly know how to play it by ear.”

Everyone in Birmingham knows that Wayne Wright was careful with women. It seemed that he had never been involved in a relationship with other women except Ada, his gossip girlfriend. His sexuality was a puzzle in many people’s eyes.

Ada’s agent always suspected that he was gay, but Ada didn’t care about it.

“I don’t care whether he likes men or women. What I want is not his love, but the title of Mrs. Wright.”

While they were chatting, a woman stood in a distance and walked to them enthusiastically when she saw Ada clearly, “Ada, what a pleasant coincidence!”

Hearing a familiar voice, Ada looked up and also said in surprise, “Allie, I didn’t expect to see you here.”

Allie was wearing a Chanel blouse and carrying a Chanel limited edition bag. She took off her sunglasses and put a big smile on her face with exquisite make up on. Ada’s agent offered the seat to her.

“I have just arrived.” Allie put down her handbag, “My friend and I were going to play here. But my friend suddenly had something to do, so I was going to leave too. Now look who I run into.”

“We haven’t seen each other for more than a year I think.” “Yeah. You are busy shooting films. Unlike me. I don’t have much to do.”

“Oh, save it please. You are the daughter of Gabriel family. You certainly don’t need to make a living like us in the entertainment industry.”

The two first saw each other in a business cocktail party and were good friends though they hadn’t been in contact recently.

Then Ada asked Allie how things were going lately, Allie sighed, “It was all good. But I’ve been in a bit of trouble lately.”

“What trouble?”

“Have I told you before? I have a half-sister who has just come back and attracted all my father’s attention again. He has agreed with my mom that I can go to the company, but he started to hesitate and said that he would give me some time to think about it. I know what he was thinking. He actually wanted to think about letting another one to go to the company.”

“Sister?” Ada was surprised, “How come you have a sister? I have never heard about her before. Is she a love child?”

Allie frowned and said ambiguously, “Something like that. Her name is Anna Gabriel. She was a loner and never really got along well with us. Then she went to college and took

pre-med courses. She lived in the college, so she never took part in our activities. It’s natural

that no one knows about her.”

Ada’s face changed when she heard “Anna Gabriel”. Anna Gabriel. Allie Gabriel. How come I never thought of it?

“I hate her.” Allie said gloomily, “If it weren’t for her, my mom and I would live a happy and easy life. But now she’s back, my father feels guilty and is always afraid that he treats her unfairly, so he wants to give her everything. Oh, she’s so annoying.”

“She’s only your half-sister anyway.” Ada said carefully, “Your mother and you hate her, and she’s a love child who can never be taken seriously. You can just think of a way to kick her out. That’s very common, isn’t it?”

Allie didn’t explain the “love child” thing, but she felt delightful when Ada said so and told her what happened six years ago, “I have tried to kick her out. Six years ago. I have set her up to humiliate her. She was supposed to become a disgrace to our family and my father wouldn’t give her the family property. But she disappeared at the critical moment. She’s good. No one could find her, and six months later, she went away without telling us and has never come back in the past five years.”

Ada’s heart pounded when she heard this. She felt that something was wrong.

Allie was still chattering, “Ok. She left. But why did she come back after five years? What does she want? Has she been preparing for five years and now she’s ready to scramble

for the family property with me?”

Ada suddenly thought of Anna’s little girl and asked after a while, “Has your sister got – married?”
