Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand novel Chapter 182

182 The Older, the Wiser 182 The Older, the Wiser

Anna had mixed feelings when she realized that Peace had just been sarcastic. She felt that Peace meant that she was a scheming

woman and was getting a lot of benefits from hiding the secret from Wayne. However, she was the only one that knew she was doing it

because she wanted her kids to get along well with each other.

Then, Anna also began to doubt herself. She even felt a little uneasy when she met the two children at the Wrights’ house in the

afternoon. When she heard Peter compliment her on how well she treated Matthew, she even blushed.

Matthew is my own son, so surely, /‘ll be good to him. Anna thought to herself.

After lunch, Tammy and Matthew rested in Anna’s arms. Tammy couldn’t stop talking and looked like she enjoyed the environment

of the house.

“Mommy, you haven’t come here with Mr. Wright for a long time. What happened?” Tammy suddenly said.

“Oh, he’s very busy. An accident happened in the hotel, so he’s got a lot to deal with.”

“But why aren’t you going to work?”

“Because I’ve been on vacation lately, honey. Then, I can spend more time with you two. Are you glad about this?”

“Of course!”

Speaking of that fire, Anna turned her head and rested her chin against Matthew’s head.

She said, “Matthew, honey, I’m so sorry. You were in the freezer that day, so I didn’t see you. I’m really sorry.”

Matthew had been quietly listening to the two of them. After Anna said this, Matthew immediately stood up and took his drawing

board. He then wrote, “it’s okay! I know that if you saw me, you would definitely take me out.”

Seeing how cute and sensible Matthew was, Anna couldn’t help but gently rub his head with relief and said, “Matthew, you’re a

good boy. You know, I’ll never leave you behind.”

Matthew immediately wrote on the drawing board again, “Really???”

He showed a nervous expression and had written three question marks. He looked as if he really didn’t believe that Anna would

always be there for him.

“Of course.” Anna immediately reassured him. She didn’t know why he was so worried, so she assumed that the fire had

traumatized him. Then, she felt remorseful.

Tammy, however, sighed like an adult and said, “Mom, Matthew is worried that Mr Wright will date another woman. Actually, I’m

womed about it too.”

Anna immediately froze. Then, the two children began to tell her what they thought about it. After that, Anna realized that the

Wilsons had visited Peter several times in the past few days, especially Charlotte’s mother. Evelyn always came here and brought up

Charlotte and Wayne‘s previous engagement. Peter didn’t want the kids to know about it, but then he realized he couldn’t keep it to

himsell anymore.

Matthew looked downcast. He wrote seriously, “No, I don’t want someone else to be my mom.”

Anna couldn’t help butteelleartbroken when she saw his aggrieved and pitiful expression. So, Anna hugged him tenderly and said

in cames. “No, I won’t let anyone else be your mom, honey. But if that day comes, I’ll take you with me.”

Henry made a few phone calls aller walking out of Peter’s study. Then, before dinner, there were many cars parked in front of the

house. Almost all of the people in Wrights’ family had arrived.

“Is it some kind of holiday today? Why did he ask us all to come to his house?”

“I came here as soon as I got the call. I have no idea what was going on, and I thought you guys knew.”

“Oh? So, did something happen to the company?”

“I remember that one of the hotels in the company was on fire. Well, I knew that we shouldn’t have let Wayne run such a big

“Attention, everyone. I’m sorry that I suddenly made you come here today. Actually, I want to announce something. As you all know,
