âMe? I... i wonât go.â Thinking of taking a boat, Anna quickly waved her hand and said with a hint of fluster in her eyes, âI donât want to go there.â
As soon as she finished her words, she lowered her head and saw Matthew clenching the corner of her clothes with one hand and looking at her expectantly with a note in his other hand.
I want you to go with me.
Anna was stunned for a second. Then her heart was softened and she couldnât bear to see him disappointed.
She caressed Matthewâs head and said, âOK. Iâll go with you. Iâll go back to my room and change my clothes first.â
Matthew doesnât have a mother, and Wayne is indeed not an attentive father. They have been here for just one day and due to Wayneâs carelessness, Matthew was sunburned.
What if they go to the island but Wayne doesnât take good care of Matthew again? Besides, Matthew canât swim. Iâd better go with them.
âOkay.â Wayne nodded and said. He looked expressionless and cool but actually, he was very delighted Early in the morning, he saw Anna drinking coffee alone at the cafe. Then he asked the crew of Travel with My Idol about the filming schedule. When he learned that Scott had taken Tammy to the island, he was in a good mood the whole morning.
After getting ready, the three of them went to the dock. They would go to the island by speedboat.
Seeing the life jacket, Anna couldnât help feeling a little dizzy. She braced herself to put it on and sat in her seat nervously, not daring to look at the sea.
âSir, please slow down,â she said to the boat driver with a trembling voice. Wayne, who sensed that there was something wrong with her, asked, âAre you okay?â
âIâm okay,â Anna said with a forced smile and tried to calm herself down. âBuckle the wind rope of Matthewâs hat. Or it will be blown away if the wind gets stronger.â
Wayne nodded and buckled the rope for Matthew. Then he found that Anna tried to buckle the rope of her sunhat but failed again and again and that her hands were trembling.
âAre you sure youâre all right?â Wayne frowned and asked. âLetâs go back if you feel uncomfortable.â
âItâs okay. Iâm fine. The boat is wobbly and I canât buckle it,â Anna said.
After hesitating for a moment, Wayne leaned over and held Annaâs hand. âLet me help you.â
Anna was stunned when her hand felt his warm palm, and the seasickness faded away a little. She stared blankly at Wayne who was buckling the rope of her sunhat. When his fingers touched her chin accidentally, she held her breath subconsciously.

âItâs finished,â Wayne said. His deep voice wrenched Anna back to the present. Anna looked away and said, âThank... thank you.â âYouâre welcome.â Wayne gazed at her and asked, âAre you hot?â âA little...â âYour face is red.â
Anna covered her face at once and stammered, âReally? Well, maybe... Maybe itâs because the sun is too scorching.â
As she spoke, she pointed to the sky and said, âThe sun feels scorching. Help Matthew button his sunâprotective jacket quickly.â
Wayne looked at her with a meaningful smile and nodded.
Matthew was curious about everything that he saw, pointing at this and that and asking Anna what they were.
Anna then patiently explained to him one by one. But there were some things that she also didnât know such as the speedboatâs mechanical equipment. At this time, Wayne would explain it and the operating principle of the boat to them.
âMr. Wright, did anyone ever tell you that you looked like a professional when you talked about boats?â Anna said.
Hearing that, Wayne thought that she was praising him.
But the next moment, Anna added, âPeople who donât know you might think you are a worker in a ship repairing factory.â
Wayneâs face was darkened at once.
Wayne had a smooth tongue and was an eloquent person. But somehow, when he heard Annaâs words, he was speechless and couldnât say a word to retort her.
Seeing him like this, Anna was in a good mood and the uncomfortable feeling caused by seasickness was weakened.
She asked, âBy the way, why did you suddenly bring Matthew to the Maldives? If you told me before you came, we could have come here together.â
Wayne answered expressionlessly, âMatthew wanted to come here.â Hearing that, Matthew glared at him, speechless.
Then he wrote a few words on his drawing board and showed them to Anna.
Dad wanted to give you a surprise.
When Anna saw the words, her heart skipped a beat.
She looked at Wayne and saw that Wayne was also looking at her. When their eyes met, she froze.
Anna had always thought Wayne treated her well because Matthew liked her.
It was after the oneânight stand that she vaquely perceived that Wayne might have feelings for her However, she was clear that there was no possibility of the two of them being together because Wayne was going to get married to Ada soon.
Thinking about this, Anna quickly looked away. To ease the embarrassing atmosphere, she +25 Point Chapter 84 Dad Wanted to S... said with a smile, âMatthew, you are so good at making me happyâ
Matthew looked at Wayne, motioning him to say something. However, Wayne turned a blind eye to his hint as if he didnât understand what Matthew meant, and then turned his head to look at the island in the distance.
Matthew was speechless and angry. He lowered his head and quickly wrote more words on the drawing board.
You said that I made you happy. It means that my dadâs coming is a surprise that made you happy, right?
The smile on Annaâs face froze when she saw the words and she didnât how to answer his question.
She had to admit that she was very happy when she saw Wayne and Matthew.
Yesterday afternoon, when she was on the balcony and saw the familiar figure of the man at the cafe, she hoped that that man could be Wayne.
Seeing her lost in thought, Wayne was about to say something when the boat suddenly shook violently.
Anna screamed, suddenly lost her balance, and leaned to one side.
Wayne quickly reached out to grab her arm. But before he could help her sit steadily, the boat shook again and he directly pulled her into her arms.
Then he asked the driver, âWhatâs going on?â
Annaâs face hit Wayneâs chest, and it hurt a little when her face rubbed his life jacket. Before she could react, she felt dizzy and sick and everything in front of her began to blur.
At this time, the driverâs voice came from the bow. âSir, the waves are too high. We canât go too far. And itâs going to rain. Shall we go to the island or go back now?â
Wayne took a look at Anna who had fainted in his arms, and his face was more darkened.
When they got onto the boat, he felt that something was wrong with Anna. But when he asked her, she said that she was all right. At the thought that she was seasick but still bit the bullet and came with them, he had mixed feelings.
Thinking about the current situation, Wayne said to the driver, âGo back to the dock.â Then he took a look at Matthew and asked, âMatthew, remain seated and hold the handrail.â
Matthew nodded seriously.
Wayne then held Matthewâs hand with one hand and held Anna tightly in his arms with the other.
Soon, it began to rain heavily and they all got soaked. Frowning, Wayne suddenly heard a whimper from Anna. âGrandpa, please donât go... Donât leave me alone...â
