Chapter 141: Chapter 141

Anna played distractedly with the two children. She glanced toward the car at the cemetery entrance every now and then, feeling apprehensive.

After a while, the door of the car finally opemed. Then, Selina and Wayne got out of the car one after another. They looked calm and relaxed.

Anna was a little confused.

Selina waved toward Tammy and said, “Tammy, are you on summer vacation now? Well, how about you stay at my house for a few days?”

Tammy blinked her big eyes at Selina. She looked at Anna and Wayne separately and seemed to have an instant idea. She replied, “Sure! Selina, can I bring Matthew with me?”

Selina looked at Matthew for a moment and then felt puzzled.

She realized the boy looked somewhat similar to Anna and Tammy, even though he wasn‘t related to them.

Selina looked at Wayne and said, “You know, I can‘t decide myself. I can only bring Matthew along if I have his father‘s permission.”

Tammy immediately looked up at Wayne and winked, saying, “Mr. Wright, you would agree, right? If you and my mommy get married, my grandaunt Selina will be Matthew‘s grandaunt.”

Wayne smiled softly, looked at Selina, and said respectfully, “Yes, you can. Thank you, Aunt Selina.”

Hearing his words, Anna got goosebumps immediately. Then, Selina got into the car with two children.

As he watched the car drive away from the cemetery, Wayne heard Anna, who was standing beside him, mutter, “Why are you calling her ‘Aunt‘ so intimately? We haven‘t got married yet.”

“What did you say?” Wayne asked, turning his head to her. Actually, he knew what she meant.

Anna glanced at him as she changed the subject and said, “No, nothing. By the way, you don‘t have to worry about Matthew.

Although my aunt doesn‘t have children, she is a reliable woman. I promise she‘ll take good care of them.”

Wayne, however, said nothing more but asked Anna, “Where are you going? I‘ll drive you there.”

“Oh, no, thanks. I already called a cab, and it should be there in a few minutes.” “Anna, I want you to know that the news isn‘t what you think it is.”

“Ah, what do you mean? Did you assume that I suspected that you were having an affair with Ada? I‘m not a fool, Wayne. You wouldn‘t have dated me if there was something between you and Ada.” Anna said directly Wayne listened to her words very patiently. After she finished, he said calmly, “I know that Peace talked to Karl. He‘s such a fool!

He thought I had deliberately put out this news. Then, he blurted it out to Peace and made you all believe his bulls**t. Is that what you think?”

141 We Can Do Anything Here At the mention of this, Anna immediately became huffy and said, “I know all about it! It‘s a little late for you to tell me the truth‘

now.”

“You know, Anna, I have never intended to use the trick with you in the first place.” Anna froze, and then looked at Wayne in a daze.

Wayne took two steps forward, pulled open the passenger door, and said, “Please get in, Anna. I‘ll give you an explanation for everything. If you think that I don‘t make sense, you can get out of the car anytime.”

As the car drove down the highway, Wayne told Anna everything about it. However, he sounded a little unnatural when he mentioned that Karl had given him those ideas.

“So, it was Karl‘s awful idea that you bought me all that stuff and ignored me on purpose?”

Wayne nodded and avoided Anna‘s gaze.

“Ah! You‘re such an int! Why did you even listen to him? Haven‘t you ever been in a relationship yourself? Did you think that he‘s an expert on women? I‘m telling you, he‘s really unreliable.”

Anna asked Wayne a bunch of questions in anger. Then, still feeling mad, she took out her phone and said, “You know what, I’ve got to tell Peace all about this, and...”

She blushed and paused as if she suddenly thought of something. “What‘s wrong?” Wayne asked.

She coughed dryly and said, “Nothing, never mind. Ah, I think we can let it go now. Let‘s not talk about it anymore.”

Anna remembered that Peace had given her awful ideas, too. And she realized that Peace and Karl were really good at beating around the bush.

They‘re such a perfect match, she thought.

“Where are you taking me? I told you that I‘m going home.” Anna asked after seeing the unfamiliar view out the window “I‘m taking you to a nice place.” He said.

It was late in the evening before they left the highway, and they even ate lunch and dinner in the service area.

Along the way, Anna saw the scenery outside the window change from high buildings to vast, boundless fields. The evening sun tinted the entire sky a dazzling orange–red.

The car stopped at the top of an open hill with the rushing river at its foot. The mountains stretched in the distance as if they connected to the end of the world.

“Wow, the air is so fresh!” Anna opened her arms, looked up at the sky and took a deep breath.

She hadn‘t been out for a walk in a long time and suddenly felt refreshed at this point. She felt the cool breeze blowing through her collar, making her shiver.

At that moment, a hand wrapped around her waist She found Wayne resting his chin on her shoulder when she looked back.

Then she heard his pleasant voice say, “If you like it here, I‘ll bring you here more often.”

“Wayne, are you serious? You brought me to the middle of nowhere. So, are we sleeping in the car tonight?” Anna pouted, trying to calm her heart beating fast.

“There‘s not a single person here. You know, so we can do whatever we want. Isn‘t that great?”

“What? Oh my God! No! I don‘t want to make love with you right here!” Anna whispered, her face flushed by the evening sun.

It was so cold on the hilltop that they felt chilled all over after standing for a while. Then, Wayne took her hand and got into the car with her.

He took out a thermos bottle and poured some hot milk for her.

Anna‘s eyes widened. She asked, “Wow, you brought milk? Seems like you didn‘t do it on a whim.”

“In that case, you‘d have to starve all night. Only an irresponsible man would do that.” Wayne looked at her and pulled a big thermos lunchbox out from under the seat.

He continued, “Scott is one of those typical young men who just like romance. He‘ll only give the girls romantic feelings, not actual protection”

“Geez, why are you bringing him up again?” Anna muttered. Then, she pointed to the box in his hand and asked, “What‘s in there?”

When Wayne opened the box, a delicious stream of hot air filled the entire car. There was a dinner for two in the box, and it was still warm.

Anna said from the bottom of her heart, “Wow! How thoughtful of you!”

Anna realized that Wayne was a rich boy who had been pampered by his family all his life. Since he could do this for her, she was embarrassed to be angry with him again.

What‘s more, the whole news thing was Peace and Karl‘s scheme.

As Anna and Wayne ate dinner on top of a mountain with beautiful views, they complained about the terrible ideas that Peace and Karl gave them.
