Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand novel Chapter 485

485 | Didn't Kill Him!

At that precise moment, the door beside her opened. The next second, the crowd rushed in, bringing in the fresh air.

Anna sat numbly on the floor, unable to process what had just occurred. People standing outside the door were also taken aback and shocked. They had just witnessed the crime scene in their boss's office.

The room appeared in disarray, with debris scattered all over the floor. Holding a blood-soaked dagger in her right hand, Anna sat by the door, and a man lay beside her. Blood was dripping from his body and seeping into the beige floor cracks.

"Someone call the police and ambulance!" Suddenly, someone shouted. It wasn’t until then that some people of the crowd who regained their composure acted quickly. However, most of them were still in shock and stood very still.

Wayne had just stepped out of the elevator when he noticed a young man frantically explaining the situation over his cell phone, "Someone has been injured here. I'm not sure if the man is still alive, but there's a lot of blood here. Yes, we do need an ambulance.”

Hearing the word “blood”, Wayne became terrified and could feel his heart pounding. He immediately ran toward Anna's office and pushed aside the people in his way. By the time he reached the office door, he exhaled a sigh of relief at the sight that Anna was safe and sound. Then he walked up to her on the bloodstained floor and said softly, "Anna."

His voice was gentle as if it held the most powerful force in the world and was pulling Anna back from the abyss. A while later, Anna looked less pale, and she gradually shifted her gaze to Wayne’s face. When she looked Ff up and saw Wayne in front of her, she dropped the dagger in her hand and shuddered, "Wayne, he... he's dead." She sobbed as she wrapped her arms around his neck. And the blood on her hands splattered on his suit, shirt, and tie.

"It's okay. I'm here to take you home," Wayne said firmly as he stroked her back with one hand. His voice was as gentle as moonlight. As he spoke, he helped her up and walked to the door. And then, Wayne led Anna out of Lemon's office, ignoring the mess on the floor.

On the way home, Anna stared blankly out of the window and felt sick as she smelled the blood in the car. As a group of students crossed the crosswalk, their car stopped at an intersection. Seeing their youthful faces, Anna realized something, sat straight, and exclaimed, "Isabella! Bill said Isabella is in danger!”

With a serious expression, Wayne nodded, dialed Noel's number, and briefly explained the situation to him.

After hanging up, Wayne looked at Anna and reassured her, "Noel has gone to find Isabella, she'll be fine.” When the light turned green, he started the engine and continued driving.

Anna nodded and said nothing. As she calmed down, she realized that Bill had probably said that just to make her crazy. She analyzed, Bill probably knew how this would end before he arrived at my office. From the moment he walked into my office, he had planned the ending. Dama it! | shouldn't have fallen into his trap so easily!

About 40 minutes later, the car stopped in front of the Wright's front door.

The maid who opened the door was stunned to see them and trembled as she asked what had happened. Wayne carried Anna out of the car, who had been silent, and said to the maid calmly, "Anna's frightened. 484 | Didn't Kill Him!

Bring her some food, please.”

After that, he dashed into the house and took Anna to the bathroom. The bathroom was filled with warm steam, and all Anna could hear was the sound of running water. The smell of blood disappeared only after Wayne changed the water in the tub several times.

Even though the smell faded, Anna was still terrified. She sat in the bathtub, and her whole body was shaking. Wayne used the shower to wash her body while she clung to herself tightly.

"Wayne, he killed himself. He killed himself..." Anna muttered, trying to recall what had just happened. Everything seemed surreal, and she wondered if she had remembered it wrong. She couldn't remember if Bill had grabbed her hand and stabbed himself or if she had done it. She even believed her brain had changed her memory.

Immediately, Tony stopped talking, bowed his head and seemed embarrassed. Wayne frowned. He just stared at Tony, saying nothing.

"Mr. Wright, your wife is under investigation for a crime, and she is not a criminal. If she chooses to escape at this time, the situation will become much more serious," The officer seemed to be threatening Wayne and even addressed him as "Mr. Wright.” He reminded Wayne that he was the CEO of the Carousel Group and that breaking the law would tarnish the company's image.

Wayne would not have hesitated to get the company out of trouble if

this were the old days. But he preferred to handle it as Anna's husband. 484 | Didn't Kill Him!

After giving it some thoughts, Wayne smiled and looked at the officer calmly. "I told you she wasn't here. If you don't believe me, come back after you get a search warrant.”

The police officers knew Wayne had done it on purpose, but there was nothing they could do about it. They were all aware that they could not offend the Wrights. Otherwise, they'd all be in big trouble.

The young officer appeared to be unhappy, but all he could do was nod and say, "OK. Then we'll."

"Wayne!"

He was about to finish when he heard a woman's voice. And everyone turned to look at the person behind Wayne who just shouted his name.
