189 Will You Marry Me?
Wayne clicked on the email he received from Gabe, and then saw some photos. The first photo was a marriage certificate with two
signatures with the date on the bottom, and the second one was a current marriage status of a U.S. citizen. Also, there were some family
photos.
There was a resume attached, and it belonged to a man called Jasper Thomas.
He graduated from Yale University and became a famous designer. Also, it only took him three years to take his startup clothing
company public. Later, he was the head of a Fortune 500 listed group. It was an impressive resume.
Even Wayne had to admit that this man was very outstanding. But, what upset Wayne was that Anna and Jasper were together
before Jasper became successful. They married in the United States on Valentine’s Day four years ago.
Wayne couldn’t find any other reason why she married this man except the fact that they loved each other.
And, to this day, they hadn’t divorced.
The room was terribly quiet, and Wayne could hear the water dripping from the bathroom faucet.
After a long time, there was a loud “bang” in the room. The large computer smashed on the floor with a huge noise.
Immediately afterwards, the computer was covered by various dark-coloured folders and thick books. The red wine glass was
smashed on the wall, leaving a blood-red mark there. The broken pieces of the glass fell in the corner and shone a cold, saint light.
The whole study turned into ruin in just a few seconds.
A maid came immediately after hearing the sound. When she stood in the doorway and saw the scene, her face turned pale with fear.
She said, “Sir, you…”
“Get out.”
“But, sir, your hand…”
“Get out!!!”
Wayne roared. There was a sudden thunderstorm outside the window, followed by heavy rain and lightning. Huge raindrops
crackled down on the window, and the lightning light illuminated Wayne’s face, making him look like a gloomy ghost. The maid was so frightened by the sight that her whole face turned pale. She then stumbled, closed the door and left in a hurry.
Wayne stood with a grim expression in ruins. The shards of the glass he had crushed pierced his hand, making blood sliding down his slender fingers. His scarlet blood dripped on the floor and became dark dry bloodstains.
Karl dropped Peace off at her home as he held an umbrella for her. He asked, “Anna’s dad is awake, isn’t he? So, when are we going
camping? I think we should make a plan.”
“Yeah, right. I’ll ask Anna tomorrow. I think it should be okay, because the doctor said her dad is doing pretty well right now. If he recovers well, he can probably live for a few more years.”
Karl asked with his jaw dropped,” “A few more years? My goodness, is that how you comfort Anna? And she would listen to
you?”
Peace glanced at him and said, “I don’t think there’s a problem with that. After all, this is what he deserves! Anna wouldn’t have lost
her mother if he hadn’t cheated on her years ago! And, if Anna’s grandfather hadn’t died, he wouldn’t have taken her home.”
“tunk her dad treated her pretty well. Besides, you can’t make sweeping conclusions about such things.”
Peace said indignantly, “God, stop talking like that! Frank knew that woman killed Anna’s mother, but he still married her. He
doesn’t deserve our sympathy”
Karl wam’t surprised because he had beard what had happened to the Gabriels. Since Anna was a friend of Peace’s, he wanted to Know more about her family background. So, he did a little research on her
Moreover, what had happened in that family belore had even made it to the newspaper. The difference between the newspaper and
the internet was that once the news was printed, there was no way to retract it at all.
At that time, the whole city was talking about the Gabriel family. Allie’s mom, who was pregnant at that time, went to Frank’s house
It was very absurd, so Frank would definitely be suspicious about that. However, he still married the mistress and let that poor
