Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand novel Chapter 151

151 Was It Really An Acciden…

Anna didn’t keep thinking about that news. She knew that those were all made up by the paparazzi, and maybe everyone would stop talking about it after a while.

Although the paparazzi said nothing nice about her in their articles, the story they made up was just about love affairs. She knew that even if the fans were irrational, they would only complain about it for a few days.

Anna didn’t think it was a big deal. She knew she should be sensible like Wayne but not uptight like John.

At the end of the afternoon, Anna went out of the office after packing her things. At that moment, she noticed that none of the people in the office had left yet.

She glanced at her watch, looked up and said, “Why haven’t you all left? It’s time to get off work. We‘re not busy recently, so you can leave in time.”

Everyone let out a sigh of relief after hearimg her words and then smiled as if they were relieved.

“Hey, don’t be afraid. I won’t make you guys work overtime.” Anna said to them with a smile.

Everyone laughed. They had worked overtime last week when they were doing the quarterly statistics. So, they started to worry every time they were about to get off work, fearing that their bosses would make them work overtime again.

Anna had just left the elevator when she was stopped by Wendy, who was sitting at the front desk

“Miss Gabriel, are you leaving?” Wendy asked.

Anna stopped and looked back. When she saw how nervous Wendy was, she was surprised and asked, “Yeah. What’s wrong?”

“I just texted John, and he probably forgot to tell you.”

Wendy walked over to Anna in a panic. She was working the night shift on that day, so she arrived at the hotel only a few minutes ago. She had just sat at the front desk in her beige suit and hadn‘t even had a chance to pin on her work tag.

“Miss Gabriel, I just saw a van at a nearby intersection. There were people with cameras pointing right at the hotel entrance. I think that they might be trying to take your picture.” She said.

Anna frowned when she heard these words.

Reporters are coming? Does it mean that there is nothing significant in the entertainment industry lately? Scott has just made his debut not long ago, and he‘s not even a well–known celebrity. She thought, and was surprised.

Anna thought that it gave the paparazzi an excellent opportunity to keep them busy. Otherwise, they would have nothing to do.

As they were talking, John stepped out of the elevator. He trotted toward them and

apologized, saying he had forgotten to tell Anna about the paparazzi.

“Miss Gabriel, why don’t you stay at the hotel tonight. It’s too dangerous outside.” Wendy suggested with concern.

“Yes, you can stay in Mr. Wright’s room. He doesn‘t stay there, but the cleaning lady cleans that room every day.” Before John could finish his sentence, he realized he might have said the wrong thing. He shut his mouth and looked at Anna.

Anna didn’t react at all. She just frowned and didn’t seem to take the comment to heart. She insisted, “Oh, no. I’m going to pick up the kids.”

Tammy and Matthew were taking swimming lessons that afternoon. Usually, it was Henry who picked them up and dropped them off. But Anna promised to pick them up herself that day. Anna knew she had to go because she had promised them, and she couldn‘t go back on her word.

“I’ll give you a ride.” They heard a man behind them say. When Anna looked back, she saw that it was Ryan.

He was wearing a white T-shirt and black pants and had his hands in his pockets. Although he looked young, his expression was very mature.

go.”

They walked to the underground garage. After getting into the car, Anna put on her seat belt and said to Ryan, “When did Wayne give you the keys? I thought you could find a car, and I was surprised.”

Anna thought he meant that Wayne was responsible for him getting hit. So, she explained, “Ryan, I’m the one who hit you. Wayne was worried about me, so he took the blame and made the company responsible for this. But, no matter what, I was the one who hit you. That’s why I’m the one who should be responsible for you.”

“No, that’s not what I’m talking about, he..” Ryan’s brow furrowed, and he didn’t continue.
