Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand novel Chapter 195

195 Why Now? 195 Why Now?

North Town was a seaside town that was far away from Birmingham. The locals there were warm and welcoming, and the seafood

there was of good quality and in short supply.

Most of the fishermen there were pleased with how they were doing and did not want to change, making it more unique. As a result,

they tend to fish and sell seafood in specified months of the year and then take a break.

Also, the village remained in its most pristine condition for so many years. Mountains and scas stretched for hundreds of miles, all of

which had never been exploited. When Anna was driving there, she noticed how beautiful the natural countryside was.

However, Anna was still yawning as she drove.

She stopped for lunch al a service station along the highway in the afternoon. If she’d known she’d never see a store again, she

might have bought something to eat,

Just as she was regrettingit, her stomach growled,

Anna sighed dejectedly and muttered, “Please stop grunting, my friend! That grumpy designer will absolutely buy me a seafood

dinner later on.”

Although he was a very good friend of Peace’s, he wanted to meet Anna in person. He said that he couldn’t judge the company’s

value without meeting the boss herself. Also, Anna came here so soon because she wanted to meet this talented designer.

At that moment, Anna’s cell phone rang. After she glanced at the caller ID, she put it on speakerphone.

“Hey, Anna, my boss, where are you?” Peace asked teasingly. As she spoke, Anna could hear the noisy sound of a power drill drilling

into the wall.

Anna turned down that voice and said, “Oh my God, are you at the office? It’s too noisy there. Can you find a quieter place to

talk?”

“Well, this is really the quietest place here. We‘re running out of time; it’s nearly nightfall. Come on, it’s your own company!”

“I didn’t mean it like that! You know, the sound of the electric drill is giving me a headache.”

Then, Peace’s voice gradually became clearer. She said, “Okay, now I’m coming outside. Is it quiet enough? I’m telling you, I had to

come here to watch them work. I came in a little late this morning, and I saw them talking and slacking off.”

“Thank you, mny talented designer.” Anna gripped the steering wheel tightly. The headlights were on, illuminating the long country

lone in front of her.

“Where are you? How’s the road?”

“I just got off the highway half an hour ago. You know, this road is just too bumpy! I’m not even going as fast as I was walking…

Ah!!!”

Anna screamed, immediately slammed on the brakes, and made a sharp noise. Peace frowned furiously, took off her headphones,

and asked, “Anna! Hey, are you still there? What’s going on?”

With a beep, Peace realized that their call had been disconnected.

Peace called Anna again, only to find that her phone had no signal. After realizing this, Peace’s face turned pale.

She had just screamed and hit the emergency brake. Could it be that Anna had a car accident? Peace thought.

Wayne stood in front of the wagon in the back of the truck, looked at the shipping list with a serious expression, and said, “You can’t

make another mistake, you know? If that happens again, we will immediately choose a new supplier. Also, we’ve bought a batch of goods

from another supplies, and they have already sent the stuff to Birmingham. If that goes wrong again, I will stop our contract and sue

you.”

The store owner wiped his sweat and assured, “Sorry, we won’t make any mistakes this time. It happened last time because the

driver forgot to turn on the refrigerator. He was afraid that we’ll blame him, so he didn’t dare to tellus. Don’t worry, it won’t happen

again.”

Wayne folded the shipping list, handed it to Gabe, and said, “Okay, that’s it. I’d like you to keep an eye on them till the last shipment

is made, please. I’m going back now.”

“What? You’re leaving? Are you sure you’re not staying here? It’s dark now, so you better not go back.”

Wayne frowned and answered.”Hello?”

1. up. Peace thinks she was in a car accident. I found out the location of her cell phone signal, and I’m sending it to you. Also, she’s in North
