Anna laughed and pinched Matthew’s nose before saying, “Honey, if | don’t marry your father, you won’t see me anymore!”
Matthew looked at her with surprise, then grabbed her neck and said, “No! No way!”
“Don’t worry, I’m just kidding with you,” Anna said as she picked him up and patted him on the back.
“Mommy, you can leave my father, but you can’t leave me,” Matthew said, leaning on Anna’s shoulder.
Everyone laughed except Wayne.
Selina gave Wayne a thoughtful look and teased, “You’ve been raising your kid for so many years, and Anna has only known him for six months. But, you see, they are already inseparable. | believe that if you do anything to hurt Anna in the future, your son will undoubtedly help her.’’
Pete knew she was joking and said, “If Wayne dares to do that, | would let Anna stay in my house and kick him out. | don’t want my grandson to disgrace me.’’
When Wayne realized everyone was making fun of him, he said to Matthew helplessly, “Come here, Matthew.”
Matthew wrapped his arms around Anna’s neck, and then turned to Wayne and said, “You’re so mean! My mommy won’t like you.”
Everyone froze, and then burst out laughing. They appeared to be one big, warm, and friendly family. Anna could tell that Selina was no longer hostile to the Wrights but rather friendly.
Then Peter walked Joe and Selina to the door, as he cared about and 322 It’s Snowing Outside – respected them.
Meanwhile, Selina sat in the back seat of the car, waving to them and saying, “Thank you. It’s freezing here, so you don’t have to walk us out.”
Anna stood at the door, waving to them. She entered the house only after their car had driven away and vanished into the night.
The two kids were overjoyed and wanted to sleep in the same room as. Anna. While Peter and Wayne talked in the study, the children were sleeping in Anna’s bed
“Once upon a time, there was a rabbit and a little squirrel, and they met in the woods,” Anna said as she wrapped her arms around them,
At the same time, inside the study.
After browsing the files, Peter became enraged and said, “Wayne, since you’ve shown me this stuff, you must be planning to do something about it.”
Wayne, sitting at the table, nodded and said, “Yes, I’ve already planned my retaliation. | believe what Richard did went undetected for so long because someone was covering him. So | didn’t spread the word and asked Gabe to look into it instead”
“Oh? Who’s covering Richard then?”
“It’s Vincent Wong from the police department.”
Peter drew a deep breath back and slammed the table, cursing, “Damn it!”
Vincent used to work for Peter in the administration section when he was still a clerk. So Peter pulled a few strings and got him promoted. And Peter didn’t anticipate Vincent covering up drug dealing once he became a powerful officer. 322 It’s Snowing Outside alNôvelDrama.Org content rights.
Then Wayne said thoughtfully, “He is now the commander of Narcotics Division. So, once we report this to the police, he will undoubtedly know it. He won’t necessarily prevent us from looking into that, but I’m afraid he’ll let the main suspect go on purpose.”
Peter frowned, realizing the gravity of the situation. Even though he was related to Richard, he knew he couldn’t always protect him.
After a brief pause, he said, “We should cut off our connections with Richard. Otherwise, he’ll destroy the entire group.”
Wayne immediately nodded and said, “Yeah, | know.”
He had asked Ryan to deal with the matter privately. This was why they hadn’t informed the police in the first place.
Wayne then left the study. As he walked into the bedroom, he saw the three on the bed, sleeping soundly. Tammy was holding a doll, resting on Anna’s left arm. She moved her quilt to the side. Matthew snored while tightly clutching Anna’s right arm.
Wayne thought to himself, / was only gone for a halt hour! When did you kids take my place so quickly?
With a smile, Wayne gently carried Tammy and Matthew to the side, trying hard not to wake up Anna.
Anna slept very well that night. She felt the two children in her arm were taken to the side, and a cold breeze blew in. And she felt someone was holding her tightly as she mumbled and tried to roll over.
“It’s snowing outside,” Wayne whispered in Anna’s ears. “Whatever,” Drowsy, Anna mumbled, not wanting to move. She then pondered the words for a moment before opening her eyes and exclaiming, “Huh? Is it snowing?”
She then raised her head up and accidentally bumped Wayne’s chin 322 It’s Snowing Outside al
Wayne couldn’t help but grunt, covered his chin, and nodded, “Yes, it’s snowing.”
Not even noticing his expression, Anna jumped out of bed and dashed to the window. She quickly drew the curtains back and looked out the window.
Outside the window, it was snowing heavily. Under the dim streetlights, among the dry branches, and on the cobblestone paths, snowflakes were falling. Anna hadn’t seen such a view in a long time.
“Can you find my phone?” Anna had just returned to her bed to look for her phone when Wayne wrapped a large blanket around her.
Wayne lifted the blanket’s two corners, wrapped it around her entire body, and hugged her tightly. “You’re wearing too little,” he said.
Anna blinked and said, “It’s not cold at all. You see, the heat’s on in here. Give me my phone, and I want to show Peace this view.”
Wayne appeared to feel jealous and asked, “Why? No! Unless you can run away from me.”
Anna gave Wayne a sly smile and placed her hands on his waist. As she had spent enough time exploring Wayne’s body, she knew that tickling his waist was the only way he would feel itchy.
Wayne tightened his grip on the blanket just as she was about to reach out her hands and tickle him. From Wayne’s smug expression, Anna knew that he was prepared.
Then getting anxious, Anna said, “Stop it, Wayne! Let go of me!”
