182 The Older, the Wiser 182 The Older, the Wiser

Anna had mixed feelings when she realized that Peace had just been sarcastic. She felt that Peace meant that she was a scheming

woman and was getting a lot of benefits from hiding the secret from Wayne. However, she was the only one that knew she was doing it

because she wanted her kids to get along well with each other.

Then, Anna also began to doubt herself. She even felt a little uneasy when she met the two children at the Wrights’ house in the

afternoon. When she heard Peter compliment her on how well she treated Matthew, she even blushed.

Matthew is my own son, so surely, /ll be good to him. Anna thought to herself.

After lunch, Tammy and Matthew rested in Anna’s arms. Tammy couldn’t stop talking and looked like she enjoyed the environment

of the house.

“Mommy, you haven’t come here with Mr. Wright for a long time. What happened?” Tammy suddenly said.

“Oh, he’s very busy. An accident happened in the hotel, so he’s got a lot to deal with.”

“But why aren’t you going to work?”

“Because I’ve been on vacation lately, honey. Then, I can spend more time with you two. Are you glad about this?”

“Of course!”

Speaking of that fire, Anna turned her head and rested her chin against Matthew’s head.

She said, “Matthew, honey, I’m so sorry. You were in the freezer that day, so I didn’t see you. I’m really sorry.” 

Matthew had been quietly listening to the two of them. After Anna said this, Matthew immediately stood up and took his drawing

board. He then wrote, “it’s okay! I know that if you saw me, you would definitely take me out.”

Seeing how cute and sensible Matthew was, Anna couldn’t help but gently rub his head with relief and said, “Matthew, you’re a

good boy. You know, I’ll never leave you behind.”

Matthew immediately wrote on the drawing board again, “Really???
