Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Chapter 212

Anna was not seriously burned, so she didn’t need to rest for a long time. And Anna was able to walk on her own after a week.

The Carousel Group had been delaying the development of the resort project for a while. Therefore, after Wayne made sure that Anna was okay, he immediately went on a business trip to another city.

“Gabe, we only have three days to complete this project. Let’s have a meeting as soon as we get there.” Wayne told Gabe in an urgent way at the airport.

Gabe’s eyes widened in surprise as he exclaimed, “What? Three days! That’s totally impossible!”

“Oh, you know I don’t want to hear any excuses. I have an important thing to do these days. So, if we can’t finish this project in three days, I’ll still go back to Birmingham. If this happens, you’ll have to deal with them on your own.”

Gabe thought he had heard it wrong. He said, “What? Mr. Wright, this project is worth hundreds of millions of dollars. What could be more important than this?”

“It’s a personal matter.” Wayne’s brow furrowed slightly and he appeared to be upset.

Anna had mentioned that Jasper Thomas would be in Birmingham this week. So, of course, he wanted to meet him and to find out what really had happened between him and Anna.

“Well, that’s basically done here. So, you guys can move in after airing it for a while. It’s so lucky that there’s good ventilation here. As you requested, most of the furniture here is used. So, it won’t take you long to move in.”The captain of the renovation team said to Anna.

After walking around the building and checking it out, Anna paid them the money. She was very pleased that this building looked refreshing and different from what she had seen before.

They renovated the building into an loft-style as Peace suggested. All the walls inside the building were gray. This would not only make the place look good, but also make the dust look less obvious. The first floor was for offices and the second floor served as the designer’s studio and clothing showroom.

Although that building was not big, it was something she and Peace had created together.

Anna couldn’t help but call Peace when she thought of her. Karl was the one who answered the phone, as she had expected.

“Karl, how is Peace doing?” She asked.

“Oh, luckily, she can recognize people now. She’s in a nice mood, but she’s still a little sleepy. Peace stared at the window for a long time yesterday. I was worried that she might jump off the building accidentally, so I put safety protection on the window.”

Anna sighed and said, “Oh, that’s very considerate of you. If you can’t hold on much longer, you should take her to the hospital. Peace had told me that staying in the hospital would help her recover faster.”

“No way. Anna, I’m sure I can take care of her myself.” Karl said firmly.

“Anna, she’s already sleeping a lot less today than yesterday. So, if you’re not too busy, you can pay her a visit here. You can come here at any moment.”

“Oh, I’ll definitely be there. You know, the renovation of the building will be finished soon now. I’ll certainly visit her and tell her the good news. I’ll come to your house if I get it all done.”

“Great!”

They hung up the phone after a few more words.

Anna couldn’t bear to say too much to Karl. If Peace was still lucid, Anna knew that she would never let Karl see her like this. Anna, on the other hand, was not present when she was having an attack.

As a result, she blamed herself, believing that her negligence had dragged Karl into this mess.

After hanging up the phone, Karl glanced at the bedroom. The curtains were closed tightly, and a bedside lamp was glowing dimly.

Peace was asleep. At that moment, his phone beeped.

Karl saw that his sister had sent him a text message, “I’m downstairs in your apartment. Mom asked me to drop something off for you.”

Karl’s hands began to tremble, and he nearly dropped his phone.

Tammy spent the whole afternoon playing with a lighted sign inside the yard. She was holding it because Scott was about to perform at Birmingham Stadium later that evening.

She got Scott to give her two tickets for the VIP section. As a huge fan of Scott’s, she wanted to go there to support him.

“Are you sure you’re not going, Matthew?”

Tammy stared at Matthew, who had a disgruntled expression on his face, as she put up her sign that read, “Scott, Tammy loves you forever.”

She asked, “You really don’t want to go with me, do you? Matthew, I’ve got two tickets!”

Matthew gave a disgusted glance at the sign before shaking his head firmly. He wrote a line on the drawing board and pressed the voice button. Then, his drawing board said, “No! I don’t think he’s a good singer at all. Besides, it’s really noisy there!”

2/4

Tammy pouted and glared at Matthew, complaining, “Hey, you can’t say that about him! I regard him as my brother.”

Matthew became even more upset after hearing her words. He scribbled a quick line, “Hey! Tammy, I’m your brother! And, I think Scott should be your uncle.”

“No! No! He’s my brother!” Tammy said as her face flushed with anger.

At that moment, a person standing at the other corner of the courtyard said excitedly, “Hey! That’s Scott’s name on the sign!”

Natalie quickly opened the courtyard door and darted towards them. She pointed to the lighted sign on the stone table and asked with excitement, “I know this. It’s Scott’s support lighted sign. So, are you guys going to his concert tonight too?”

“Are you a fan of Scott’s, too?” Tammy asked and then looked at her “Grandaunt Natalie” wide-eyed. They didn’t know each other well and hadn’t spoken to each other much.

Natalie gave a very serious nod and then said, “Yes! But, when the tickets first went on sale, they were all sold out. I didn’t get a ticket, so I can only stand outside the stadium.”

Tammy immediately raised the two tickets she was holding and said, “Ah, I have two tickets! Do you want to come with me?”

Natalie took the two tickets as if they were priceless treasures. She was so excited that her voice was shaking, “Is that true? Oh my God, these are the seats in the front row! Great! I’ll get a chance to take a closer look at him!”NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

“Oh, Oh, and I can take you backstage to meet him if you come with me. Scott and I know each other well.” Tammy said smugly.

Meanwhile, she was blind to the fact that Matthew, who was standing behind them, had become unhappy while they were chatting cheerfully.

Hey! That‘s the ticket for me! Tammy, you just said you would give it to me, so why did you decide to give it to Natalie so quickly? Matthew thought to himself.

“Oh! Were you a guest on Scott’s travel show? Oh, my goodness! I’m sorry, I didn’t even notice you when I watched it. You know, I couldn’t take my eyes off him.” Natalie suddenly remembered this after taking a good look at Tammy.

Tammy rubbed her head in embarrassment and said, “Yes, but it happened a long time ago. Henry will come to pick me up later. So, how about we all go there together?”

“Yes! Great! Oh, by the way, I just went to the supermarket and bought a lot of snacks. Wait for me, Tammy. I’ll go get them.”

“I’ll go with you.”

They said as they ran off happily. Matthew was perplexed as he looked at the two of them with wide eyes.

What? They became friends in just a few minutes? Matthew thought to himself.
