Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand novel Chapter 155

155 Once And For All

None of them said anything. Allie was holding onto the table tightly and shaking as if she was going to fall down in the next moment.

She was so angry and ashamed that she wanted to kill Anna.

Allie thought to herself, Anna, you b***h! How dare you film it and show them to Scott! Not only did you threaten me, but you got in the way of me getting back to Scott. God knows this is my last chance!

“Tell me, will you read it or not?” Allie gritted her teeth in silence for a long time before answering, “Yes, I will.”

Anna nodded and put her flash drive into her bag. Before leaving the conference room, she said calmly, “By the way. Allie, there’s one more thing you need to do. Tell Wind Media and those people you hired on the Internet to delete the posts. Otherwise, you know what I’ll do to you.”

Allie stood in the doorway of the conference room with her back to Anna. She was extremely angry, so she clenched her teeth very hard. After a long time, she squeezed a few words through her gritted teeth, “OK, got it.”

But, Anna, Ill get back at you, Allie thought to herself.

The press conference ended well in the afternoon. Most of the netizens were so sympathetic to Allie that they were willing to take her word for it. She did what Anna wanted and explained that both she and Anna were just Scott’s sisters. She thus proved that all the rumors were nonsense.

The reporters left in disappointment. They thought that the incident was a misunderstanding and not at all worthy of gossip

Scott handed Anna a glass of water and asked, “I really didn’t expect this to have anything to do with her, Anna. Why would she do that?”

Anna looked at him and said, “Scott, do you really have no idea? She doesn’t like me because she likes you. You only talk to me in the family, so of course she hates me.”

Scott asked innocently, “She likes me? Gosh, I really didn’t know that at all.” “Oh, well. Besides, that toyboy of hers kinda looks like you.” Anna said.

She thought, if Allie hadnt gone too far, I wouldnt have threatened her with this video. I knew that if there was a grudge between her and me, we would always be enemies. I didn‘t originally want to do this, but since she did this to me. I had to treat her the same way. It seems that she and I will always hate each other.

Shortly after the press conference, Wind Media released a statement. They said they would apologize to Scott and the two people involved and compensate them. Also, they said they had fired both the reporter and the editor who published the story

The matter was completely settled by the time Wayne returned from his trip.

“I did a good job, didn’t I?” Anna asked as they were having a meal. She smiled and looked as if she wanted Wayne to praise her.

Wayne looked at her and praised, “Well done.”

“Thank you. So, I didn’t give you or the whole company any bad publicity, did I?” Anna asked deliberately

Wayne did not answer her question. Then, he took out a small white square box from his pocket and placed it in front of Anna. He said, “Surprise! This is for you, Anna.”

Anna froze and her mind immediately became confused. She then said incoherently, “Oh, no! Wayne, I’m… I’m actually not ready yet. Just put it away for now, okay?”

I still have a lot of secrets that I havent told him, and I still have puzzles to be solved. So, / cant marry him now. Anna thought to herself.

Wayne gave her a quizzical look and asked, “What? What are you talking about?”

He then opened the box and said, “I bought them in Italy. I thought they would suit you, and I wanted to gave them to you as a gift.”

Anna found that there was a pair of pearl earrings in the box. The pearls were extremely beautiful, glowing with a glistening white luster.

Anna froze and said awkwardly, “Oh! They are… earrings!”

So, they are earrings! Gosh, he scared the hell out of me. Why did he put them in this kind of box? Its very misleading. Anna thought to herself.

Wayne frowned and asked, “But, you seem a little disappointed. If you don’t like them, you can tell me. You don’t have to pretend to be happy, honey.”

Immediately, Anna‘s eyes widened and she exclaimed, “Hey, I really like them. I’m not disappointed at all.”

The two kids sitting across from them both froze and looked up at them. “What’s wrong?” Wayne asked as he was still puzzled.

Watching Anna leave, Tammy let out a meaningful sigh. She looked at Wayne, and then said with disappointment, “Mr. Wright, when a woman sees a box like that, she knows there‘s something inside. Do you know what that is?”

“No. What is it?” Wayne asked. “Matthew, do you know?” Tammy turned back to Matthew and asked.

Wayne was a little frustrated after realizing he was being laughed at by two kids. He looked at the box on the table, and rubbed his nose as he felt embarrassed.

Treally didnt know anything about it! I just wanted to give her a nice pair of earrings. Wayne thought to himself
