Chapter 115: Chapter 115

At the sight of Anna, Wendy cried and said, “Miss Gabriel, I didn’t steal the necklace. That guest slandered me.”

“I know. I know you didn’t do that. We’re still investigating this matter. Come back first, Wendy,” Anna said.

“You are lying to me,” Wendy shouted hysterically, holding the railing with one hand and wiping her tears with the other.

Seeing her like this, the others broke out in a cold sweat.

Wendy then continued, “You all lied to me. No one believes me at all. You all believe that actress. When she asked you to fire me, you agreed to her request. I heard that!”

Hearing this, Anna was a little surprised. She glared at John and asked, “Who said she would be fired?”

John frowned and said, “Mr. Brown thought that it’s more important to transfer the crew members as soon as possible, so he...”

Before he could finish his words, Mr. Brown suddenly cut in, “I did that for the sake of our hotel.”

“Even for the sake of the hotel, you can’t fire her for no reason,” Anna said as she glanced at Mr. Brown with coldness in her eyes.

Frightened by her cold gaze, Mr. Brown shivered and dare not say anything more.

Anna then turned to look at Wendy and raised her voice, “Wendy, I promise I will find out the truth. You won’t be fired if you are innocent.”

At this time, Wendy’s delicate and pretty face was bloodless, full of frustration and depression. She shook her head repeatedly as tears streamed down her face and she said, “I don’t believe you. You will definitely fire me.”

As soon as she finished her words, the rusty iron railing, which had been out of repair for a long time, suddenly came loose from the cement ground, making a harsh cracking sound.

Seeing this, the others gasped and screamed.

Anna clenched her fists and said, “It can’t go on like this. John, talk to her and attract her attention. You can talk to her about her grandmother. And I’ll try to pull her back.”

When John began to talk to Wendy about her grandmother, Anna quietly walked to the edge of the crowd, stooped, and approached Wendy as her heart beat fast.

“Wendy, think about your grandmother. She is in poor health and is waiting for you to send her money to support her. Don’t give up your life,” John said in a trembling voice.

Under the scorching sun, Anna was almost covered with sweat.

Through the gap between the railings, she saw that the fire brigade had arrived and were inflating the inflatable cushions.

However, even the cushions could serve as buffers, one might have a concussion if falling off from such a high building.

Wendy seemed to be about to be persuaded by John. She couldn’t help crying and roared, “If lose my job, I can’t send money to my grandmother and can’t support her anymore. If so, I’d rather than die!”

She was so agitated that her hand trembled as she tightened her grip on the railing. The railing kept shaking and clanking, and everyone looked at her worriedly and nervously.

The next moment, the loose railing collapsed with a loud bang. Wendy lost her balance and fell backward. And her scream rent the air.

The crowd gasped and didn’t dare to see what would happen next. “Help... Come and help me...” Anna shouted in a muffled voice with great effort.

At this moment, she was lying on the edge of the terrace, with one hand holding the stone pier next to her tightly and the other hand holding Wendy’s hand.

She felt a sharp pain in her arm as if it was about to be broken, and every second was a year long for her. Gritting her teeth, she said with her last bit of strength, “Help me.”

The crowd immediately rushed over and pulled Wendy who had passed out in fear back to the terrace.

Anna turned over and sat on the ground, breathing a sigh of relief. Her arm was painful and she could feel it was growing numb.

“Are you okay?” A familiar voice came from above her head at this time.

Hearing this, Anna was stunned and she raised her head. Since the sunlight was dazzling, she could only vaguely see Wayne’s handsome face.

When Wayne reached out his hand to her, she saw his slender and beautiful hand. “What are you doing here?” Anna asked.

“Such a big event happens in the hotel of Carousel Group and many reporters are covering it downstairs. As the CEO of our company, shouldn’t I come here? The fire brigade have been in place downstairs. Why did you do such a dangerous thing?

Superhero, do you want our hotel to be in the headlines because of you?” Wayne said bluntly with a calm voice as if he was blaming her.

Then he softened his tone and continued, “Are you okay? Can you get up?”

Anna was still in a state of shock but she could vaguely feel the worry and concern in Wayne’s tone. After taking a deep breath, she said, “I don’t know. I’ll have a try.”

Before she could try to stand up, Wayne carried her in his arms. The next moment, she saw his face clearly and heard his low and cold voice, “There’s no need to try.”

Anna was open-mouthed and subconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck. Under the gazes of the others, she was carried away from the terrace by Wayne. What is he doing? Is he crazy?

Wayne carried Anna in his arms all the way back to her office, ignoring the shock in others’ eyes By the time they got to Anna’s office, Anna had blushed to her ears. “What What are you doing?” she stammered in embarrassment Wayne threw her on the sofa with a cold look and rudely grabbed her hand, saying, “Have you moment or you fell off the building with her?”

Being questioned by him, Anna didn’t know what to say. After a long time, she said, “Did... Didn’t you say that the firefighters were in place downstairs?”

At the worst, we would fall on the cushion.

Wayne’s face was darkened and he said in a deep voice, “You were on the twentieth floor just now.”

Does she really think the cushion is useful in that situation? Even if she wouldn‘t die after falling off such a high building, she would be badly injured!

Under his cold gaze, Anna felt pressure and inexplicably began to feel guilty as if she had done something wrong.

She didn’t dare to look into his eyes and tried to change the topic. “I’m all right now, aren’t I? Besides, all that I did was for our hotel. If I died, you would be responsible for taking care of my daughter...”

Before she finished her words, she was suddenly kissed by Wayne. Then her mind went blank and her eyes widened in shock.

The two of them were so close to each other that she couldn’t focus her eyes well enough to see Wayne’s expression.

At this moment, she could only feel his thin lips and his powerful heartbeats.

This kiss was so unexpected that she forgot to push Wayne away. Perhaps in her subconsciousness, she had never thought of doing so.

At such a moment when she was still in a lingering fear, such a kiss gradually calmed her down. After a while, the panic in her heart faded away, and she was immersed in the kiss.

She let Wayne press her against the sofa and hold her in his arms. With one hand on the back of her head, Wayne kissed her more deeply. Their hot and quick breaths mingled, and the atmosphere in the office became more and more passionate.

“Emm...” Anna couldn’t help letting out a moan and felt as if the office became hot and the ai became thinner. Then her heart beat faster and faster.
