Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Chapter 265

Tammy kept talking about everything she had seen this morning as they were having breakfast.

She said, “Our bed is small. Mr. Wright can‘t even stretch his legs when he‘s lying on Matthew‘s bed! Matthew was curled up at the bedside and couldn‘t move at all.”

Ryan burst out laughing and nearly choked on his food. As he laughed, he coughed, and a bean came out of his nose.

Tammy looked surprised at him, then sat back and exclaimed, “Eww! Ryan, that‘s disgusting!”

“I‘m sorry, Tammy, I didn‘t mean to do that,” Ryan laughed.

Anna kept her head down and tried not to laugh out loud. She could swear that she had no idea Ryan would lock the bedroom door.

Also, she had never thought that Wayne would sleep in the kids‘ bedroom. The bunk bed in their bedroom was designed for children and didn‘t even have enough space for teenagers to sleep on. So Wayne, who was over six feet tall, was bound to feel cramped when he slept there.

Wayne frowned at her and asked angrily, “Do you think this is funny, Anna? Last night…”

Anna stood up in a panic, afraid he would speak out of turn that they had had sex the other night in front of the kids.

She quickly put her knife, fork and plate away before picking up her bag and saying, “OK, I‘m full. Well, I‘m going to work now. I haven‘t checked what was on Twitter last night, so I‘m going to see what are they talking about now.”

She then walked away. The room became hushed after she shut the door.

Tammy finished her meal and returned to her room, leaving Wayne and Ryan staring at each other at the table.

“You can‘t hold it against me! You were the one who said you didn‘t want to be in my room last night! So lassumed you‘d prefer to sleep on the couch rather than in my room. Anyway, I had no idea you‘d sleep in the kids‘ room!” Ryan said.

Meanwhile, Wayne pursed his lips and tried desperately to resist the urge to beat him up when he saw the “innocent look on his face.

Tony had just entered the office when he informed Anna of the change in online comments on the previous night

“I bet the puble opinion is currently stable However, the time between twelve and five a mistupposed to be when internet data is suspended So, we cannot rely entirely on that information im worried that people will start talking about it again after a while so,

we‘d better have another meeting and devise a backup plan.”

Anna said calmly, “Oh, that won‘t be necessary. We can all get back to work now. Could you please get ready for the press conference this afternoon? I‘ll let everyone work as usual.”

Andrew happened to walk in at that precise moment. “Come on, Andrew, I want to talk to you about something,” Anna said as she waved at

him.

Andrew turned around and saw a man hiding in fear behind him. Then, he gave the man a sidelong glance before slamming the door shut.

“Anna plans to tell the press that she and Frank have cut their ties with each other long ago. Besides, she will announce her father‘s will and tell everyone that she has nothing to do with the Gabriel Group.”

Oscar hid in the restroom and then made a call, telling someone what Anna had just said about the public relations scheme.

“Good. Thank you very much.” “I‘ve already told you about her final proposal. So, can I leave this company now?”

The other man said, “Oh, not so soon. You know, this battle is just getting started. We‘ll discuss this after the meeting this afternoon.”

Oscar became agitated and said, “No, I can‘t wait that long. You‘re not going to let the press conference go on as planned, are you? If I leave at that time, they will undoubtedly blame me.”

“Their company will be out of business by that time. So, you‘ll have a good reason to leave.”

“No, that‘s really not the case. Listen to me…” “OK, that‘s it. I‘m going to hang up now.” “Ah! No!”

However, the man cut Oscar off before he could finish. Oscar scratched his head in annoyance when he realized this. He was so irritated that he even wanted to smash the mirror in front of him.

He wasn‘t an i***t. When the manager of the White treated him like this, he knew they wouldn‘t keep their word.

At the break, Gabe left the office and went to the restaurant that Wayne had told him to go to. He was taken aback when he noticed Wayne eating with his two children,

“What do you want to talk to me about, Mr. Wright? You can say it over the phone, and you don‘t have to come to see me in person.” Gabe said to Wayne respectfully,

“That‘s all right. The kids wanted to eat here, and it‘s close to the office.”

Hearing that, Gabe assumed that Wayne had come specifically to see him. However, he hadn‘t expected that Wayne was just here to take his kids to lunch.

“Are you ready? You know, about the press conference that will be held this

afternoon.”

Gabe replied confidently, “Don‘t worry, I‘ve got a lot of experienced boxers. So, I‘m sure we can keep the scene in order. If anyone dares to cause trouble, those boxers will teach them a lesson.”

“OK, thanks,” Wayne said with a nod.

“You‘re welcome. By the way, I nearly finished looking into what you asked me to earlier.”

“All right, tell me what you know.”

“In fact, only a few bodyguards were working around Leo six years ago, and two now work as personal trainers in a gym in Birmingham. They said they were looking for someone at the bar the night of June eighteenth.”

Wayne froze and asked, “What? Who were they looking for?” “They were looking for a girl,” Gabe replied, lowering his voice.

He was cautious about this. However, he didn‘t even notice that Tammy, who was eating a chicken wing, was intently eavesdropping on what he was saying. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“They said that Leo asked them to find this girl. Then he told them to blindfold her, give her pills, and send her to a suite at one of the Carousel Hotel.”

Wayne thoughtfully recalled what had happened that night six years ago. He remembered that he was a little tipsy back then. Since there were no lights on inside that room, he didn‘t look closely at that girl‘s face. Nevertheless, he remembered that the girl‘s eyes were blindfolded and that she had been struggling.

As Wayne recalled these details, he realized that the girl did seem to have been drugged.

“But they said that even though they tried every means to look for her all night long, they still couldn‘t find her anywhere.”

Wayne was taken aback when he heard Gabe‘s words. He asked, “Huh? What?”

Wayne made no attempt to hide his surprise. He thought, they didn‘t find the surrogate mother. But I did have s*x with a girl that night. So, who the hell is she? What the hell had happened back then?

Leo soon informed him that the girl was pregnant and brought Matthew home eight months later.

Gabe continued, looking at Wayne, “I asked them about it several times, but they insisted that they hadn‘t found the girl. Even after visiting numerous bars, they were unable to locate her. But Leo told them to stop looking for her in the early hours of the morning. Then, another weird thing happened. Leo told them to go to the hospital a month later to kidnap a young girl who was about to have an abortion.”

Wayne thought carefully about this information and then deduced roughly what had happened: the surrogate mother had not shown up that night for some reason. However, another girl who wasn‘t supposed to be in his room slept with him that night.

Wayne felt like one of the mysteries had been solved.
