Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Chapter 326

Anna was not busy recently. So, she visited Emily in the hospital every day at noon with the food she made.

When Anna walked into the ward, she frowned, glanced around, and asked, “Ryan is not here? Has he ever visited you lately?”

Emily replied, “He’s actually been here a few times. He generally comes at night because our drill isn’t finished yet. I don’t have to participate in it because we discovered a drug den. But they put Ryan in charge of this and made him write all the paperwork. He has a lot of work ahead of him, so he’s super busy.”

When Anna realized Emily was speaking for Ryan, she sighed and shook her head. “You’re too sweet and thoughtful, Emily. Here, have some chicken soup.”

Anna opened the lunchbox, poured the chicken soup into a bowl, and handed it to Emily.

“Anna, your boyfriend is a lucky guy;” Emily commented as she took the bowl.

“Why?” Anna asked in amazement.

“Because you’re such an excellent cook! If | wasn’t straight, I’d surely fall for you.”

“Really? Then why don’t you go on a date with a chef?”

Emily froze, realizing what she had just said was silly. When Anna noticed she was genuinely thinking about it, she giggled and turned on the TW.

“The police made progress the Joan Group drug trafficking ‘326 They Are Brothers uF investigation a few days ago. They discovered methamphetamine…”

The case caused quite a sensation in Birmingham. In fact, it was one of the city’s largest narcotics seizures in the recent decade. To everyone’s surprise, it was some students from Military Academy who caught the criminals. Everybody could see this news for the past three days whenever they turned on their TVs.

In addition, the authorities discovered several nightclubs related to this crime. Almost every nightclub owner later expressed worry.

“By the way, | heard that you found the boxes full of watches. Where did they hide the meth? Was it curiously.

inside the watch dials?” Anna asked

Emily was sipping soup at the time. She swallowed and replied, “I’m not sure how they found it, but they said it was inside the watch straps. The straps were made of rubber, and after cutting them open, they discovered that they were hollow on the inside. Each watch contained a single dose of drugs.”

Anna was taken aback by the fact that they were concealing drugs in such a hidden place. If she and Andrew hadn’t seen the spilled meth, they wouldn’t have guessed there were drugs in those watches.

Soon, a tap on the door interrupted their conversation. Then a woman asked as she stood by the door, “Hello, is Miss Emily Lewis here?”

Anna and Emily both turned around and saw an elegant woman at the door. She was dressed in a navy blue coat and a beige dress, with her hair ina lovely bun.

Emily had never met her, but Anna had. So, Anna asked in surprise, “Jennie? Is it you?”

She recognized this woman as Jennie Wright, the owner of the ieleculnir’ toed Aidat aor tani aie war Wihire’s chothac. ‘326 They Are Brothers adh

Jennie paused for a few seconds when she saw Anna. They didn’t say anything to each other, which made the atmosphere awkward.

Emily didn’t seem to notice anything out of the ordinary. She asked, tilting her head to look at Jennie, “Hello, how can | help you? I’m Emily Lewis.”

Jennie then stepped into the room. She placed the bouquet of flowers in her hand on the bedside table, looked at Anna, and hesitantly said, “Hi, I’m Ryan’s mom. | heard you got hurt because of him, so I’m here to see you.”

Anna felt she couldn’t think straight when she heard her words. Anna thought to herself, What the hell? Ryan is Jennie’s son? Then it will make him Wayne’s brother. So Ryan was the child of Jennie and another man? Dear God, he’s Wayne’s half-brother!

Anna stared at Jennie as if expecting her to explain something. On the other hand, Emily had no idea what emotional roller coaster Anna was on and just asked, wide-eyed, “What? You’re Ryan’s mom?”

Jennie answered with a nod, “Yes. Ryan said he’s too busy with school right now to come see you. So he asked me to look after you. I’ll stay if you want me to. Well, if you don’t want to, I’ll hire a caretaker.”

“Yeah! Yes, yes. Thanks!” Emily immediately nodded her head, feeling joyful and touched. She thought the fact that Ryan had asked his mother to take care of her meant that she might have a shot with him.

Then Anna excused herself from the conversation and walked out. After that, she paced in front of the hospital room instead of leaving. This was a stunning realization for her. She couldn’t decide whether to pretend she didn’t know anything about Ryan’s real identity or to tell Wayne about it.

In fact, she knew very little about the incidents that happened in the ‘326 They Are Brothers ol Wright family. Wayne had mentioned this to her a few times, so she only knew roughly about what had

happened. She knew Wayne’s father had died in a car accident and that it seemed to have something to do with Jennie. Plus, Wayne kicked Jennie out of the house because she cheated on his father. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Jennie was pregnant when she left the Wrights’ house, and Ryan was nineteen years old. Anna did the math and concluded that it was entirely conceivable.

After confirming this, Anna asked herself: Did Ryan know nothing about this? Why would such a bizarre coincidence happen?

Just as she was thinking, Jennie opened the door. She did not walk out right away, but turned back to say goodbye to Emily. She focused her gaze on Anna as she closed the door, and her expression then went serious.

“Anna, are you waiting for me?” She asked.

Anna frowned and said,”! know it’s inappropriate for me to ask these questions. But | wanted to make sure that if Ryan and Wayne…”

Jennie looked at her calmly, for she had known this fact for a long. time. She said, “That’s right, they’re brothers. Do you have a moment? Let’s talk about the past, shall we?”

Jennie spoke softly, giving the impression that she was the type of woman with a low profile. Anna realized she didn’t appear to be the selfish, cheating b***h Wayne described. She knew that only those who had gone through the accident could explain everything. And everyone had their own side of the story.

They then went to a cafe near the hospital.

Jennie smiled as she surveyed the cafe, saying, “I haven’t been downtown in many vears. The decoration here is very different from what | ‘326 They Are Brothers adh

remember seeing when | was young. Do young folks nowadays like this style? Should | also update the design of my hotel?”

Anna looked around the cafe. It was decorated in a fashionable style with popular components and was a far cry from the pleasant environment of the Maplesugar Hotel.

“No, | believe it is best for you to keep to yourself. | truly like the way you decorated your hotel.”

Jennie gave a bashful smile, took a deep breath, and replied, “Anna, you are welcome to stay at my hotel at any moment. | heard that Ryan has been staying at your place these days. Thank you for looking after him.”

Anna asked hesitantly, “So, you knew Ryan had been around Wayne? Did he do that on purpose?”

Anna felt uneasy because she knew there could be no such coincidence. Ryan stayed at Anna’s house recently because she accidentally hit him with her car. However, she began to wonder if the whole thing had been planned.
