Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Chapter 249

249 I Took the Initiative to Break Up With Him

Natalie cautiously added as she saw Wayne’s dejected expression, “Actually, I think it’s a good thing. Anna came here just to cook for Matthew. You know that Matthew is your only great-grandson and he can’t be starved.”

“Oh? Do you mean that Anna can come to my house as she like?” Peter said with discontent.

“Father, I remember that you once thought highly of Anna.”

Peter then scowled and grumbled, “Oh, that was before. Back then, I had no idea that she was still married.”

When Natalie noticed that Peter was becoming furious again, she didn’t dare to bring it up again.

She then abruptly shifted the subject and stated, “So, just regard Anna as a new cook we hired, okay? We live in a massive mansion. So, if you don’t want to see her, keep her out of the courtyard where you are.”

Natalie returned her gaze to Wayne once she finished, and then carefully said, “Actually, I just overheard your conversation. You can ask Anna to go to Wayne’s house if you

don’t want her to come here. She will then stop bothering you.” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Peter smirked. He didn’t comprehend the gravity of the situation until he heard Natalie’s words. He recognized that if he didn’t allow Anna to come to their house, she’d go to Wayne’s. He wouldn’t know what would happen between the two of them that way.

As a result, Peter agreed immediately, stating, “Okay, I’ll let her come to my house this weekend.”

Everyone knew that he would never change his mind once Peter agreed to something.

Natalie exhaled a sigh of relief after hearing what he said and even proudly raised an eyebrow at Wayne and grinned.

Wayne, on the other hand, gave Natalie a cold stare that made her shudder all over. So, she immediately left.

It was Saturday the next day. All the servants were courteous to Anna when she arrived at the Wright house with Tammy.

After taking Anna to the kitchen, one of the servants said, “Miss Gabriel, would it be okay if I lead Tammy the way to Matthew’s room?”

Tammy snorted and exclaimed before Anna could say anything, “No way, I’m not leaving! I just want to stay in the kitchen with my mom.”

“Well, Matthew has been anticipating your arrival for quite some time. Besides, he has a gift for you.”

Tammy pouted, “Huh! I’m not going.”

When Anna noticed that the maid was still trying to persuade Tammy, she answered, “Okay, that’s fine. I’ll cook as quickly as possible. Then I’ll leave with Tammy as soon as I finish cooking. So, you don’t have to keep her entertained.”

Anna was well aware that her mere presence would disgrace her. As a result, she wanted to leave as soon as she completed cooking. She wouldn’t have come to Wright’s house in the first place if she wasn’t worried that Matthew would be hungry.

Tammy sat in the chair next to Anna and watched her while she was cooking. Anna handed her a cleaned tomato, and Tammy ate it with red juice all over her face.

She asked, “Can you cook faster, Mom? I want to eat fried chicken later.” “Yes, baby,” Anna responded.

The ingredients in the kitchen were almost all pre-made, and the cook had already washed the meat for Anna.

Therefore, Anna only needed to prepare a few side dishes and place the food in the pot. The kitchen was then filled with the delicious aroma of food.

Peter was staying two yards away from the kitchen. He was reading in his study when Henry said to him, “Peter, the cook is here.”

Peter set the book he was carrying down and asked, “Oh, please allow her in. Is Anna here already?”

The cook replied, “Yes, Miss Gabriel came here with her daughter. I asked if the little girl wanted to play with Matthew, but she refused it. So, they’re both in the kitchen right now.”

Peter grunted, and then said, “Gee, she sure is smart! Does she think Wayne and Matthew will go to the kitchen to talk to them that way? Invite them to the far side of the yard at lunchtime! They won’t be eating with us this way.”

The cook gave Peter a thoughtful looh before saying, “In fact, Miss Gabriel said she would leave as soon as she finished cooking. She also said she would come back again before dinner. So, I don’t think she plans to stay here all day.”

Peter grimaced and felt irritated when he heard this.

Henry gave him a look before gesturing for the cook to go. Then he persuaded Peter, “Actually, I don’t think Miss Gabriel is that kind of frivolous woman. So, perhaps you misinterpreted her.”

Peter said unhappily, “Hey, why are you putting in a good word for her? Did Wayne bribe you?”

Henry immediately shook his head and then said, “Oh, no! I can swear to God I’m not being paid off! But if you’re still unsure, you can check her out in the kitchen.”

Peter looked up at Henry at this time and then seemed to be thinking about his opinion

Henry once again suggested, “Let’s go check it out together, shall we?”

Then Peter put the bookmark in the book and walked away from the desk, saying, “Yeah, let’s go.”

The kitchen was filled with the enticing smells of cooking. Anna had prepared three dishes and a bowl of soup.

“Finally! Let’s go, Tammy,” she exclaimed as she removed her apron after cleaning her hands.

Tammy sprang up immediately, leaped into Anna’s arms, and said, “Yes, Mom.” “Gee, I smell like beef all over me now! Don’t get so close to me, dear.”

Tammy rubbed her face against Anna’s dress and said, “Oh! I don’t mind it at all! Let’s go. I want to eat honey-flavored fried chicken.”

“Okay, you got it,” Anna said. She took Tammy’s hand and was ready to walk out of the kitchen with her.

However, before leaving the kitchen, they noticed that Peter step in. He looked to be in good spirits and took a big stride toward the kitchen. “Grand… Mr. Wright, hello. “Anna instantly corrected herself, and then said calmly.

Peter nodded and looked at the dish behind her before asking, “Well, you’ve got the lunch ready?”

“Yes, I made three dishes plus a pot of soup; all of them are Matthew’s favorites.”

Peter said, “Actually, you’re not the first person that wants to marry Wayne by pleasing Matthew. But you are the first woman that Matthew relies on so much. You must remember that I am still the master of this family. Besides, you’ll never be able to marry my grandson. A woman like you can’t be the hostess of our house!”

Hearing Peter’s harsh words, Anna gripped Tammy’s hand tightly and said gently, “No. I think you misinterpreted me. You should know that your grandson and I are no longer together. Besides, I don’t intend to get back together with him. Matthew and I are quite close, and he is a good friend of my daughter. So, of course, I’m happy to cook him a few meals.”

“You definitely don’t plan to get back together with Wayne?” Peter asked, frowning.

Anna looked unhappy and said, “Oh, you probably did misunderstand me. While Wayne is brilliant and precious in your mind, not everyone wants him. Actually, Wayne and I really aren’t meant to be together. You wanted to set us up, didn’t you? But I’m not getting back together with him. Well, actually, I’m the one who breaks up with him.”
