Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand novel Chapter 336

336 Owing Her an Apology

336 Owing Her an Apology

When Anna was a child, no one in her family cared for her except her grandfather. Selina had been cold to her back then, so her grandfather was the only person who treated her nicely.

Peter was a cold, serious man, the polar opposite of Anna's warm and loving grandfather. They were, however, both men who would protect their families.

The dinner didn't go well, but Peter said nothing about it. When he returned home, he took the two children with him and asked Anna not to worry about it anymore. Anna wasn't bothered but figured Selina wouldn't necessarily think so.

It was late in the evening when Anna and Wayne got home. Wayne got into bed after taking a shower and then he read the financial magazines by his bedside. After a while, Anna sighed.

Wayne smiled, still looking at the magazine, and asked, You're still furious about what had happened this evening, am I right? It's okay; you didn't know each other that well in the first place. Just don’t contact them ever again.”

Anna rolled over and gazed at Wayne, saying, "I'm sure | won't see them again. But I'm more worried about Auntie Selina. She must be enraged, and I'm afraid she'll overthink it. You know, it's bad for her health."

"It's all right, Anna. If you're really worried, you can pay her a visit tomorrow."

Anna moaned once again and added, "Of course, yes. To be honest, | 336 Owing Her an Apology think something might go wrong.”

Wayne wasn't in the mood to read his magazine after hearing her say that. He placed it on the nightstand, lay down, and tightly held Anna. Then he said gently, "Don't think about it anymore, sweetheart. Good night.”

However, Anna was unable to sleep at all. She knew that Selina had never wanted her to marry Wayne in the first place. Selina didn't know that Matthew was Anna's son, so she always disliked the idea that Anna would be the stepmother to someone's child. Selina was also concerned that Wayne would not devote himself to Tammy because he had a son.

Anna believed she must tell Selina the truth before they married. However, the most important thing for her was letting Wayne know about it first. After a long moment of hesitation, she plucked up her courage and said, "Wayne, | need to talk to you about something.”

Upon hearing that, Wayne wrapped his arms around her and rested his chin on her shoulder. "What is it?" he asked gently.

"Well, it's about Matthew's birth mother..."

Wayne quickly tightened his grip on her, which made Anna so nervous that she suddenly lost her courage to say anything further. After a little pause, Wayne said, "I'm sorry, Anna. | should not have done that. Don't think about it anymore, okay? I don't want to, and I'm not going to look for his birth mother again. Matthew has you. And it's all that matters.”

Wayne assumed that Anna was still thinking about Sophia. He was well aware, though, that he owed her an apology. So, he took the opportunity to talk to her about it.

However, Anna was left with conflicting feelings. She found it difficult to say anything after hearing Wayne's words. After a while, she asked, "You knew later that Sophia was a liar, didn’t you? What did she say about that?" 336 Owing Her an Apology Wayne rubbed his chin on the back of her head and whispered, "She said nothing because | couldn’t find her. Gabe will handle this.” Anna asked nervously, "Huh? What are you going to do to her?"

"Why are you so concerned about this woman, Anna?" Wayne asked suspiciously.

Anna hardly dared to breathe. She said, "No, nothing. | was just asking.”
