Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand novel Chapter 367

367 | Want Mommy

Itwas already evening, and Matthew was still crying like a wind-up toy, causing everyone to feel exhausted.

Henry said anxiously to Peter, "Matthew is still refusing to eat anything, sir. He's been saying he wants to see his mother for days. After he fell asleep last night, his nanny fed him some milk secretly. But he didn't eat anything other than that. What should we do?"

Peter frowned and said, "Before, | knew Matthew and Anna were close, and | assumed he simply liked her a lot. But it seems that blood ties appear to be extremely powerful. He only listens to Anna, so we may be out of options."

Henry said cautiously, "What about calling Miss Gabriel? She's Matthew's mother, and she's definitely going to take care of her son." Peter said, shaking his head, "She's going to sue Wayne in a few days, and Anna wants Matthew back. Matthew is my only great-grandson, and Wayne probably won't get married again. So | can't hand him over to Anna."

"But Matthew won't eat anything!"

Peter took a deep breath and said, "Let me go check on him."

Peter used to be a very energetic old man. He had, however, been through so much in that time that he appeared exhausted.

Matthew shared a yard with Peter but lived in a different house. He cried almost every second of the last few days, keeping everyone in the whole yard awake. During the day, the servants would yawn while working asa result. '366 | Want Mommy

Peter quickly made his way to the door. A porcelain bowl smashed to. the ground at that moment, spilling the porridge inside.

A servant sat on the bed, looking exhausted. When he saw Peter, he stood up and said, "Sir!"

"Let me handle it,' Peter sighed, waving his hand.

Matthew's voice was hoarse from crying, but he still didn't stop. Peter approached Matthew. He no longer looked imposing but very gentle. He took one of Matthew's hands and asked softly, "Matthew, why are you crying? Could you please tell me?"

Matthew was crying so hard that he couldn't even breathe. "I

wa... want my mommy!" he mumbled.

Peter had known that Matthew would say that. But when he heard it, he still felt very heartbroken. He said, "Matthew, your mother and father will not get married. Your father will find you a new mommy that you like in the future. Is that OK?"

Matthew shouted, "No! | just want my mommy!"

Matthew was crying so hard that Peter had no idea what to do. He hugged the little guy and said, "OK, you can meet your mom. Stop crying, dear. Ill take you to see your mom tomorrow."

Matthew leaned into Peter's arms, gasping for air from crying. He looked up, puzzled, and asked, "Really?"

Tammy seemed to understand what she said. She then said, "You like '366 | Want Mommy Wayne, don't you? He likes you a lot too, and he told me so."

"That was before we argued."

"No, he told me that while we were at the amusement park. He said that he loved you and that he intended to marry you in the future. He also said that would have younger brothers and sisters in addition to a brother."

Anna froze, not knowing what to say. She was staying at Wayne's house at the time. Wayne left early every morning and returned late every night. She assumed he didn't want to see her on purpose, but she didn't expect him to always be there for Tammy.

However, she didn't know if this was true or why Wayne didn't say it to her himself. Also, Anna couldn't think straight and felt irritable and depressed when thinking about the trial in 10 days.

Tammy took her arm and shook it, asking, "Mommy, how long are we going to be here? | want to go home! Can we go home?"

Anna also felt very sad when she saw her daughter's sad face. But remembering what Wayne had done, she was afraid that something bad would happen to Tammy again. She didn't dare to gamble anymore.

Then she comforted Tammy by touching her head and saying, "Can you please wait a little longer, baby? After the trial, I'll take you back to America. You'll be able to go wherever you want by then."

Hearing that, Tammy thought to herself, Mommy, you're taking me back to America? If so, I will never see my brother and father again! No, | don't want it!
