Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

186 They Surely Are Good at Acting

“Only Anna can change you”, echoed in Wayne’s head.

Karl gradually calmed down and then sat back on his chair. He glared coldly at Wayne and said, “Only Anna broke all your boundaries

and changed your principles, and she even made you doubt yourself. She’s the first gray area you’ve encountered in your life. Just admit it, Wayne, you can’t live without her anymore.”

Wayne frowned. Karl had just said exactly what he was thinking, making him feel uncomfortable. So he glared at Karl and said

coldly, “Stop staying in my company and get your ass back to yours.”

Then, he left the conference room straight away.

Karl rubbed his chin and smiled teasingly, thinking, Wayne is so stubborn! 

Wayne had too much of a smooth life over the past thirty years. Even though his parents hadn’t gotten along, it hadn’t done him much harm. He was always the coolest kid in school. However, After his father’s death, he lost the only tenderness and joy he had.

At Wayne’s father’s funeral, Wayne’s mother finally made a change. She decided to never leave home again and stop chasing her

so-called dreams and freedom, and to just take care of him.

However, Wayne was calmer than anyone else at that point. He told her in front of the entire Wright family, “How much money do you want? Go to the finance department and get your money. After that, don’t ever show up in front of me again in your life.”

Wayne was such a ruthless man. But, he had compromised with Anna many times.

Karl, as a bystander, knew better than even Wayne what he had done.

Afterward, he called Peace. He said to her gently, “Hey, baby. When are you available? Let’s go camping! I’ve got everything ready, I saw the weather forecast, and it will be nice lately.”

Peace stayed as calm as she could and said, “Oh, let’s just wait a little longer. Anna’s not in the mood these days, I’m afraid.”

“What’s wrong?” Karl asked and sat up straight. At that moment, his instincts told him that something was wrong.

After a brief period of silence, Peace said, “Something’s happened to Anna’s father.”

Anna’s father, Frank, suddenly fell seriously ill in the morning and was taken to the hospital. He still hadn’t come out of the

operating room at that time.
