Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand novel Chapter 153

153 Coherent And Logical

The thing that worried Pete the most was that Matthew couldn’t talk. Wayne had asked him to take care of Matthew, but then the incident happened to Matthew. Therefore, Pete felt guilty for so many years. He always thought that he was the one who did not take care of the child.

After hearing Anna’s words, he also realized that what happened back then was probably not an accident

After dinner, Henry walked them out at the door of the mansion. Through the car door, he said to Anna, “Miss Gabriel, don’t worry. Although we had fired the nanny, we recorded her cell phone number. I’ll check it out later and let you know.”

“OK, thanks.” Anna nodded to him and thanked him.

The two kids sitting in the back seat were asleep on the way back.

Through the rearview mirror, Ryan saw how preoccupied Anna looked. He asked, “What are you thinking about? Are you worried that even if you find a clue, you won’t have time to check it out”

Anna looked back, nodded and said, “Hey! How do you know what I’m thinking?”

“Oh, I just wanted to tell you that I can do it for you. I have all the time in the world. If you trust me, then leave it to me.” Ryan said calmly.

Anna froze and asked, “Huh? How are you going to do that?”

“First, I need to get information on those nannies. That way, I can find the people who were involved in that accident. I need to find out what they’re doing now and if there’s a huge hit in their bank account. You should be clear about what I will do after that.”

Realizing that his approach was coherent and logical, Anna asked, “Ryan, did you remember something?”

Ryan laughed and said teasingly, “Yeah, I remembered a little bit. I think maybe I used to do things like this all the time. Perhaps I used to be a cop.”

Anna bristled and said, “No way! You‘re twenty years old, and you must not have graduated yet.”

Ryan didn’t say anything. In the darkness, Anna couldn’t see the somber expression on his face.

Anna didn’t go to work the next day. She got an early morning call from Scott. He asked her to come to his office and was going to talk to her about what to do.

As soon as Scott saw Anna, he apologized and said, “I’m sorry, Anna. These reporters are out of their minds! They are just talking nonsense.” |

Anna patted him on the shoulder and sent Scott’s assistant with Matthew and Tammy out the door.

“Ah, it was originally not a big deal. But something else happened this morning.” Sam, Scott’s agent, frowned and sighed when he finished.

Anna replied, “Allie did it, of course. I saw the news on the way here. I didn‘t expect her to

have the nerve to do this.”

Someone posted online in the early morning hours. She claimed to be Scott’s girlfriend’s best friend and said Scott and his girlfriend loved each other so much over the years. However, Anna kept pestering him. Scott had to be with her because he was grateful to her and she had big shots to support her.

The post was completely nonsense. But, netizens were inclined to believe it, and it was all over the Internet.

“We‘ve sent a letter through our lawyers, and we’ve spoken to the court. Reputation infringement lawsuits usually will take a long time. But, if we don’t do anything, we’re going to be in trouble. Scott’s career is just getting started, and it’s not too smooth yet. In any case, his career can’t be ruined.”

Scott said irritably, “Oh, I don’t care about that. I won’t accept your solution even if I quit.” Anna frowned and asked, “What are you talking about? What solution?”

Scott looked at Sam and asked, “Do you dare tell Anna about it?”

Anna hesitated and asked again, “So, you guys checked with Allie? She’s really willing to help?”

“Yes, she did,” Sam said happily. Scott said anxiously, “Anna, you’re not going to say yes, right?”

I knew it! Allie is probably the one who planned this. That‘s why she agreed to help Scott and promised that she would solve it. Then, taking care of the matter would be easier once / know who did it. Anna thought

In the evening, Ryan’s voice came over Anna’s headphones, “Her car is here. She’ll be upstairs in about ten minutes. Hide away, and don’t let her find you.”

Anna sized up the man. She noticed that he looked a little like Scott. His hair was brown, and his skin was very fair. He was about six feet tall but not at all masculine, being casually wrapped in a hotel bathrobe and surveying Anna warily.’ |
