249 I Took the Initiative to Break Up With Him
Natalie cautiously added as she saw Wayne’s dejected expression, “Actually, I think it’s a good thing. Anna came here just to cook for Matthew. You know that Matthew is your only great-grandson and he can’t be starved.”
“Oh? Do you mean that Anna can come to my house as she like?” Peter said with discontent.
“Father, I remember that you once thought highly of Anna.”
Peter then scowled and grumbled, “Oh, that was before. Back then, I had no idea that she was still married.”
When Natalie noticed that Peter was becoming furious again, she didn’t dare to bring it up again.
She then abruptly shifted the subject and stated, “So, just regard Anna as a new cook we hired, okay? We live in a massive mansion. So, if you don’t want to see her, keep her out of the courtyard where you are.”
Natalie returned her gaze to Wayne once she finished, and then carefully said, “Actually, I just overheard your conversation. You can ask Anna to go to Wayne’s house if you
don’t want her to come here. She will then stop bothering you.”
Peter smirked. He didn’t comprehend the gravity of the situation until he heard Natalie’s words. He recognized that if he didn’t allow Anna to come to their house, she’d go to Wayne’s. He wouldn’t know what would happen between the two of them that way.
As a result, Peter agreed immediately, stating, “Okay, I’ll let her come to my house this weekend.”
Everyone knew that he would never change his mind once Peter agreed to something.
Natalie exhaled a sigh of relief after hearing what he said and even proudly raised an eyebrow at Wayne and grinned.
Wayne, on the other hand, gave Natalie a cold stare that made her shudder all over. So, she immediately left.
It was Saturday the next day. All the servants were courteous to Anna when she arrived at the Wright house with Tammy.
After taking Anna to the kitchen, one of the servants said, “Miss Gabriel, would it be okay if I lead Tammy the way to Matthew’s room?”
Tammy snorted and exclaimed before Anna could say anything, “No way, I’m not leaving! I just want to stay in the kitchen with my mom.”
“Well, Matthew has been anticipating your arrival for quite some time. Besides, he has a gift for you.”
Tammy pouted, “Huh! I’m not going.”
When Anna noticed that the maid was still trying to persuade Tammy, she answered, “Okay, that’s fine. I’ll cook as quickly as possible. Then I’ll leave with Tammy as soon as I finish cooking. So, you don’t have to keep her entertained.”
Anna was well aware that her mere presence would disgrace her. As a result, she wanted to leave as soon as she completed cooking. She wouldn’t have come to Wright’s house in the first place if she wasn’t worried that Matthew would be hungry.
Tammy sat in the chair next to Anna and watched her while she was cooking. Anna handed her a cleaned tomato, and Tammy ate it with red juice all over her face.
She asked, “Can you cook faster, Mom? I want to eat fried chicken later.” “Yes, baby,” Anna responded.
The ingredients in the kitchen were almost all pre-made, and the cook had already washed the meat for Anna.
Therefore, Anna only needed to prepare a few side dishes and place the food in the pot. The kitchen was then filled with the delicious aroma of food.
