Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand novel Chapter 131

131 I’ll Be back as soon as possible

It had already past midnight when Wayne came out of the shower. The hazy moonlight shone nto the room and looked like fog.

As the bathroom lights were turned off, the moonlight made the room even colder.

Anna felt Wayne hug her from behind. The heat from his body surrounded her and made her eel hot and uncomfortable, like she was being choked.

She felt annoyed and couldn’t help but struggle. “Sorry, did I wake you up?” Wayne whispered tentatively.

She didn’t say anything more but just nodded. A few seconds later, she said, “Yes. Why are you back so late?”

“I took care of a few things.” “Did you finish it?” “Well, not yet.”

Anna kept thinking about that message from Ada. After being silent for a moment, she asked, “How long does it take? Will you still be able to attend the send-off party next weekend?”

Hans and his team were going to stay in Birmingham for half a month, and the hotel was holding them a farewell dinner at the end of next week. It was a significant event, and as the boss, Wayne had to attend.

“I will. Don’t worry.” He replied. Anna frowned and kept herself from asking more questions.

Just as she was getting upset, she heard Wayne say, “I knew a dcotor in Germany and he maybe knows how to cure Matthew. But, the problem is, it’s hard to get an appointment with him.

So, I’m taking Matthew to Germany tomorrow, and I’ll be back as soon as possible.”

Anna froze, realizing that she was overthinking and had misunderstood Wayne. Are you taking him there by yourself?”

“Yes, but don’t worry, it won’t take long. It’s just that you’ll have to take care of the team all by yourself.”

“That’s OK. I hope Matthew can be cured.”

Wayne was silent for a moment. He then held her in his arms, put his face against her cheek and whispered, “I feel so happy for Matthew. He is so lucky to have a mother as good as you.”

When Anna heard these words, she had mixed feelings. However, she did not know how to express her emotions. So, all she could do was turn over and hug him tightly around the waist as if that was the only way she could suppress the urge to tell him the truth.

Wayne left very early the following day, and his housekeeper and Matthew had been waiting for him at the airport

He kissed Anna on the forehead, took his coat, and quietly left the room.

The following week. Anna accompanied the foreign group as the hotel representative. She showed them around all the famous attractions of Birmingham and took them to eat local

food.

Jennifer told Anna that she loved the delicious food there.

After a few days, she already treated Anna as a very good friend, and she even invited Anna to visit her country.

On the night before the farewell party, when everyone returned to the hotel, Jennifer hugged Anna and said, “Thank you so much for being with us, Anna. I’m going to give you a gift at the dinner tomorrow.”

Anna smiled and replied, “Thank you, I’m looking forward to it.”

“You’re going to love it. By the way, let’s have your very interesting young friend join us at the dinner, shall we?”

Are you referring to Ryan?” Anna asked, frozen in surprise.

Jennifer had met Ryan by chance one day while hiking in the suburbs, and she seemed to like him. She said Ryan was the same age as her son, and they both enjoyed hiking. They talked for a long time, and Jennifer even invited him to join the team for dinner.

At that time, Hans came over. He winked mischievously at them and said, “Yes, he’s a very interesting young man, and I’m looking forward to seeing him again. By the way, isn’t Mr. Wright back yet? Will he still be at the dinner tomorrow?”

Anna smiled and said, “Yes, I will talk to him about it. Don’t worry, he will definitely be back in time. He told me that he will apologize to you all, because he feels a little sorry that he left.”

After all the guests had gone back to their rooms, Anna asked Gabe, “Are you sure Mr Wright will be back tomorrow?.?.

Anna was feeling worried. They hosted the guests not only for the government but also hoped to do business with them. Of course, Wayne was aware of this, so he had been accompanying the team for the first few days. Later, he left because he had to take Matthew to the doctor.

Anna thought that Hans had given her a hint which meant that he wanted to do business with them. So, as long as Wayne could finally make it back, there was a good chance that they would collaborate,

The farewell dinner was held the following afternoon as scheduled.

“Ms Gabriel, I have already picked up Mr. Wright. Don’t you worry.
