"I wasn't expecting to see you at Mr. Thomas' wedding. When | saw Karl just now, | was more than surprised." Beatrice went on.

Hearing that, Anna realized why Peace was upset. Then she looked at Jasper, asking him whether Beatrice was Karl's girlfriend with her eyes secretly. Jasper gave her a nod in response.

"Excuse me, | need to check on my children." Anna made an excuse to. leave because she disliked this woman. Plus, she was worried about Peace. She then gave Wayne a sharp pinch on the back as a warning on her way out. Wayne frowned because it really hurt,
