Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand novel Chapter 194

194 I’m Doing This to Help Him

Shortly after Mr. Lee went upstairs, Shirley came downstairs.

Allie was reading a magazine on the sofa. Hearing that sound, she rose up promptly and said, “Hey, mom.”

“Oh, you scared me!” Shirley gasped and complained.

Seeing there was nothing in her mother’s hands, Allie felt frightened.

Mr. Lee showed the revised will to Frank in the study and asked, “If you think this is okay, just sign here.”

“Okay, I don’t see any problems.”

“Good. Then I’ll have your daughter sign it later.”

Frank glanced aside at the bowl and said, “No, not now. You can just let her sign it this weekend.”

“Okay.”

After Mr. Lee left, Frank lifted the small bowl in his hand. There was chicken soup and maybe some other stuff in the bowl. Frank

smiled bitterly to himself and then drank all of the soup in one gulp.

Since Anna left, Matthew stayed in Peter’s house and refused to go back to Wayne’s no matter what. Wayne was worried about his

son and wanted to visit him. However, he was also afraid that his grandfather would ask him about Anna. So, he was very annoyed.

Peter had already known that Anna chose to resign. On the day Anna handed in her resignation letter, the news was spread to the corporate headquarters. So, of course Peter knew about it quickly. Moreover, he even asked about the gossip going around the

office.

“Remember how Charlotte treated you before, Wayne? So, you are going to break up with Anna for her, huh? Do you realize what a

wonderful woman Anna is? God, I think you’re really insane!”

Peter slapped the table and continued with regret and anger, “No wonder Matthew has been so restless these days. You still wanted

to hide it from me, don’t you?”

Wayne didn’t say a word. After Peter scolded him, he said calmly, “Okay, Grandpa. This is my own business, and you might have to

stay out of it.”

Peter yelled angrily, “I need to stay out of it‘7 You are my grandson, the only heir of the Wrights of the next generation! You know

what, you are humiliating our entire family!”

“Oh? So, are you trying to threaten me with the company again like before?”

Wayne deliberately acted as if he was numb and indifferent. However, he was not doing this to piss off his grandfather but because

be was at a loss. He didn’t know how he should handle his relationship with Anna and had been confused about it for a long time.

Peter grunted and said, “Oh, if that’s the case, then it would be too good for you! We have a seafood company in North Town, and it

has recently gollen into trouble. The company sells bad seafood, and many customers have been complaining about it. Go there, find

out what happened, and help them out of their troubles.”

Before Wayne could answer, Henry, standing nearby, pleaded on his behall, saying, “Oh, no! You know, it’s very hot and humid in

North Town, and it’s so far away from here. It’s summer, and you can get dehydrated just walking around the beach. Wayne can’t suffer

that I think that you can get a manager there, Peter. If no one wants to go, then I’ll go.”

“Do my words count here, or do you?” Peter said with a disgruntled glare at Henry.

Without saying anything else, Wayne got up with his jacket and said, “Okay, Grandpa, I’ll leave tomorrow morning.”

“Waynel” Henry said. He lett resigned, but there was nothing he could do. He knew Wayne well enough and realized that he had

been stubborn since he was a child, Moreover, he knew that Peter was the kind of person who would not back out. So, Wayne was

definitely going to go there.

Henry sighed and said, “Peter, I don’t think you need to do that. He’s in his thirties, and he knows what he’s doing. So, you don’t

have to be so harsh on him now.”

okay? I’ll be back as soon as I can.”

Sitting on the couch, Tammy said with slight excitement, ‘Okay! Don’t worry, mommy, i’ll take care of myself. Well, it’s okay if you

want to stay there for a few more days.”

Anna said, “Why should I stay there for a few more days? Baby, I’m not going there for a vacation. Come on, let me take you to the

shower. I have to get up early tomorrow.”

Anna was still renovating Lemon. The company hadn’t officially started hiring employees yet, but Anna felt that she should be

prepared before that.

Peace introduced her to a friend of hers who studied design at Central Saint Martins. After working for a few years, that person quit

his job because he felt that commercial activities were incompatible with his design concept.

So, he went back to his hometown in North Town and lived the life of a “caveman”. Peace said he didn’t even use a cell phone. To

find him, people had to call a pay phone in town and have the person who answered it tell him. Then, he had to walk three miles to town

to answer that call,

“Don’t worry, I’ve already talked to bim. Just have the phone booth owner take you to him when you get there.”

Before Amaleft, Peace told her again, “Remember, Anna, he’s really eccentric. And to be honest, he’s a bit of a pain in the ass. If he

pisses you off, just ignore him.”

Anna opened the car door and said, “Okay, I get it. Many designers are eccentric. All right, please take care of Tammy. Bye, I’m

oft”

“Well, bon voyage.”

Anna looked in the rear view mirror and saw Peace swinging around in an exaggerated way to say goodbye to her. Anna laughed,

shook her head and called Peace a “psycho” in her mind. Then, s
