Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Chapter 51

When hearing what Peace had said, Anna was dumbfounded and her mind went blank.

Peace means that I have feelings for Wayne? How is that possible?

“Besides, there is no pure friendship between a man and a woman. Wayne is the CEO of the Carousel Group. He is very busy every day but he spares time and takes care of your child. Except for that he also has feelings for you, I can‘t find any other reason for his behavior. That‘s all.”

“Matthew likes the food that I cook so he often takes Matthew here to have dinner. And he takes care of Tammy just to express his thanks to me,” Anna said.

“Maybe he has made up his mind to be with you for the rest of his life,” Peace said. “That‘s impossible.” Anna denied it without hesitation.

Hearing Anna‘s denial, Peace tutted and chuckled with a meaningful look as if she had seen through Anna.

That night, Anna was sleepless. The words that Peace had said today and the memory of these days when she stayed with Wayne ran through her mind again and again.

In the middle of the night, she got up and went to the living room to drink water. When she got to the living room, she saw a new set of tea sets on the table.

Then she remembered that once Wayne came to visit her before, she poured water for him and let him make do with the cup that was a little broken. On the second day, Wayne brought this new tea set.

In addition to the tea set, Wayne would also bring her many things every time he came.

And she could see the stuff that Wayne had given her almost everywhere in the apartment.

Anna‘s heart beat fast when she thought of this.

The next morning, Anna received a message from Wayne on her way to work. I‘ve sent Tammy to school. Don‘t worry.

On the crowded subway, Anna managed to type “Thank you” and couldn‘t help smiling sweetly.

Since Peace came back from her business trip, she had been living with Anna. Wayne still often came to have dinner as before,

On the first day Peace met Wayne, she almost asked about everything about him and his family.

In the kitchen, Anna felt awkward when hearing their conversation. She wished she could put the spoon in her hand in Peace‘s mouth to let Peace shut up.

Fortunately, Peace didn‘t stay at home every day. She established a design studio and was very busy every day so she would have dinner at home once a week at most.

At night, Anna went out of Tammy‘s bedroorn after coaxing Tammy to sleep.

It was rare for Peace to have a day off and she was idle at night. After applying a facial mask, she lay on the sofa and play with his mobile phone.

When she saw Anna come out, she suddenly sat up and asked, “I heard from my assistant in the studio that Wayne and Ada are going to get married. Is it true?”

“Yes, that‘s true,” Anna said calmly and took a sip of water.

“Oh, God!” Peace said in surprise and the facial mask on her face wrinkled. “Then why does he come here to please you every day? What a two–timer!”

“He comes here to please me? You must be joking. He has a fiancee. And he and I are just superior and subordinate. I told you about it before but you didn‘t believe me,” Anna said as she rolled her eyes at Peace and turned around.

The next moment, a hint of disappointment appeared on her face and she thought, How is it possible that he has feelings for me? He is going to get married soon…

Then she forced herself to abandon her unrealistic notion before. When Peace was about to ask more, Anna‘s phone suddenly rang. Anna took a look at the caller ID and ignored the call directly. “Why don‘t you answer the phone?” Peace asked.

“It‘s just a sales call,” Anna said. Then with a gloomy expression, she took out the clothes from the washing machine and went to the balcony to hang them.

The screen of her phone which was on the table suddenly lit up and a text message popped up.

Peace got up from the sofa and saw part of the content.

The engagement party will be held on this Saturday. Anna, don‘t forget that Jacob and I

are …

Seeing Jacob‘s name, Peace frowned at once.

If my memory serves me right, Jacob is Anna‘s ex–boyfriend who cheated on her. Anna mentioned him once we had a drink abroad. So… the woman who sent the message to Anna is most likely to be Anna‘s best friend who shamelessly seduced Jacob!

After hanging her clothes, Anna came back from the balcony. Seeing that Peace was still sitting on the sofa, she said, “Why don‘t you take off the facial mask? It‘s almost dry.”

“It doesn‘t matter,” Peace said with her arms folded and sat upright. “Anna, come and sit here.”

“What‘s up?” Anna was amused by her serious look and asked. “It‘s in the middle of the night Don‘t play tricks on me or frighten me.”

“What‘s this?” Peace asked as she took out a red invitation card from behind her back and put

it on the tea table.

Just now, after reading the message, she knew that Anna had received the invitation card so she rummaged through the pile of newspapers and magazines under the tea table and then found the invitation card at the bottom of them.

It could be seen that Anna had received it for some time. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Looking at the red invitation which was offending to the eye, Anna frowned and asked, “Where did you find this?”

“Under this pile of magazines. If I remember rightly, Jacob is the shameless bastard who cheated on you and dated your best friend, right?” Peace couldn‘t help but roll her eyes at the mention of Jacob.

Then she continued, “When I saw the invitation card, I thought that they were going to get married. But actually, they are just going to hold an engagement party. Humph. Does that woman want to get married so much?” |

Anna said helplessly, “They have had nothing to do with me.”

“I know that you don’t care about them. But that woman is provoking you. What are you going to do?” Peace asked.

“I‘m not going to their engagement party,” Anna said without hesitation.

“Why?” Peace immediately stood up from the sofa and said, “You must go to the party! This is a great opportunity to revenge yourself on them. I‘ve got an idea. I‘ll make a customized dress for you. I promise you that everyone at the party including your bastard ex–boyfriend will be fascinated by you as long as you wear it. And I‘ll make him break up with his fiancee and beg you to come back to him.”

“You don‘t need to do such a thing for me. Just let bygones be bygones,” Anna shrugged her shoulders and said casually. “It has nothing to do with me whether they live a happy life or not. I don‘t want to see him. Out of sight, out of mind.”

“Your expression shows that you still can‘t let go of the past. Don‘t you feel aggrieved when thinking of the past? Jacob hasn‘t apologized to you for his cheating,” Peace said.

Hearing this, Anna had mixed feelings.

She certainly felt aggrieved. Back then, if it weren‘t for Jacob, she wouldn‘t have been a surrogacy mother.

“By the way, I have accepted the invitation for you.” Peace said as she blinked with a complacent look.

“What did you do?” Anna‘s face froze and she asked in disbelief. The next moment, she saw the bright screen of her phone which was on the table. She picked up the phone at once and saw the message that Lilian had sent to her as well as
