Chapter 27 Fond of That Little Girl
“Who is Tammy Gabriel?” Ada blurted out the question.
Wayne glanced at her and answered indifferently, “The daughter of one of the employees.”
“Why do you need to read the medical record of an employee‘s daughter? Which employee?”
On hearing Ada’s words, Wayne closed the documents he was reading and put it on that medical record. He asked in a tone that brooked no argument, “Do I need to tell you each and every thing that I do?”
Ada looked stunned, “No, I didn’t mean that. It’s just a casual question.”
“You have too many questions.” Wayne said impatiently, “I still have a lot of things to do. We will have dinner with grandpa. We can directly go there. I’ll arrive on time.”
He was suggesting that she should leave now.
Ada immediately regretted that she had asked too many questions without thinking. She wanted to say something to make Wayne feel better, but he still looked very impatient, so she found an excuse and left the office. However, before she left, she somehow repeated “Tammy Gabriel” in her heart.
“Wayne took the initiative to help you get into the kindergarten?”
In the house of the Wright family, the old man was holding the phone and said energetically, “He has already tried to help your mom. It’s faster than I expected. It seems that our plan works well.”
The voice on the end of the phone was very childish, “Grandpa, thank you for telling me Uncle Wright’s location. Otherwise, I couldn’t let mommy and Uncle Wright run into each other in the restaurant.”
“I think that’s because your mommy is really outstanding and special. There are few women that Wayne is concerned for.”
“So you mean that mommy stands a chance of marrying Uncle Wright?” “Not a chance. Many chances.”
While they were chatting happily, the butler walked inside and reminded him, “Sir, the young master and Miss Xavier have arrived.”
The old man said happily, “OK, Wayne has come back. I’ll take the chance to ask him what he thinks about it. I’ll call you again, little Tammy.”
“Okay. Goodbye, grandpa.”
The cheerful voice in the phone had pleased the old man. He smiled for a long time after he hung up the phone.
“I really like that little girl, Tammy. If her mom marries into our family, our family will
become lively. And Matthew will have a companion.”
“Sir, aren’t you worried that the one who has her own child won’t care enough about other people’s child?”
“Haven’t you seen them in that Japanese restaurant? Tammy had a great time with Matthew, and her mom was attentive to him.”
The butler was a little relaxed when they talked about that day in the Japanese restaurant.
The old man wasn’t surprised that Wayne brought Ada home. Since he urged Wayne to get married five years ago, Wayne would take her back once in a while to shield himself from his urging. At first, the old man thought they were really in a relationship. But after a long time, he knew that she was only his buckler.
“Why doesn’t Matthew come back with you?” The old man asked about Matthew at the dinner table.
Thinking of Matthew’s naughty behavior at home, Wayne slightly frowned and said, “He has a bad temper recently. I was afraid that he would annoy you.”
“The only one who will annoy me is you.” The old man shot an angry glance at him and said in a dissatisfied tone, “How can he have a good temper staying with a bunch of servants every day instead of a mother? If you don’t get married soon and find him a mother, he will possibly become a Hooray Henry. And that’s all your fault.”
“What?” The old man’s face changed, “You mean you want to get married to her?”
His face darkened. Wayne couldn’t understand him, frowning, and said, “Ada has been with me for many years. If you want me to get married, then I’ll do it.”
“Wait a minute.” The old man was a little confused. He thought for a while and calmed down, “What about Matthew? Has Matthew agreed with your marriage?”
Wayne answered resolutely, “The thing that I considered mainly about was Matthew’s opinion.”
