Chapter 31
At first, Anna thought that Wayne refused to y because he didn’t want to trouble her, so she kept
telling him that it was alright. After pushing the swing for a few rounds, she finally sensed the anger and
reluctance in his tone.
He said, “Anna Gabriel. Stop it. Now.” She quickly let go of the rope, “What…What’s wrong?”
Wayne stepped on the ground and controlled the swinging ropes, his expensive leather shoes leaving
two “skid marks” on the ground.
He turned around and red at Anna, said word by word, “Did I say I want to swing?
“Didn’t you just think it was not safe? You should try it for Matthew.” Anna still hadn’t realized what a
wrong thing she had done and said naturally, “Besides, staying with a child means ying the things
they like. Haven’t you yed with Matthew before?”
“And that’s the reason why you think I should swing right here right now?” He stared at Anna with
annoyance in his eyes.
Anna looked at Wayne up and down in confusion. Then the smile on her face froze.
His suit was certainly ipatible with the colorful swing. Besides, she was busy thinking about
comforting him and totally forgot how cold and scary he usually looked.
And she just put the cold scary CEO on a children’s toy…
“Well, ahem… I suddenly remember that I’m in a hurry. I need to go to work. I…I must go now.” Anna
pretended to look at her watch and took a few steps back, quickly running away.
As Anna ran out of his sight, the anger on Wayne’s face gradually faded. It seemed that his face was lit
up and there was a glimmer of amusement in his eyes when he put his fingers on the ropes after
making sure there was no one around.
Anna didn’t stop running until she stepped out of the gate. Then she stood there to catch her breath
with her hands on her chest, embarrassed and frightened. She thought,“ That was close. If I stayed
there for a few more minutes, I would be killed by Wayne Wright’s sharp eyes.”
“Ms. Gabriel, did youe outside alone?”
Anna raised her head and saw that Ada Xavier who just walked out of Wayne Wright’s MPV was giving
her a hostile stare with arms folded.

Frowning, she thought of the aggressive words that Ada said to Tammy, which had aroused
antagonism in her body, so she only nodded and snorted drily. Then she waved her hand by the street
to get a taxi.
“I suppose you must know that I’m going to marry Wayne, do you?” It seemed that Ada didn’t want to
let her go so easily.
Anna could only turn around and answered, “The rumor is all over thepany. It’s impossible that I
don’t know about it.”
“That’s great.” Ada stroked her hair and raised her chin loftily, “Though we haven’t made an official
announcement, we will hold a press conference soon. Our marriage will be a sensational news in our
whole country. If anyone still holds the delusion that she could do something to our rtionship in this
period of time, she should be prepared to get spat on by millions of people. Don’t forget that old saying,
‘Many go out for wool ande home shorn
“Mr. Xavier, I think you have worried too much.” Anna pretended that she didn’t understand what Ada
said in order to evade a conflict, “I don’t quite understand what you said.”
However, Ada wouldn’t y along and directly said in a cold tone, “I meant I wanted you to stay away
from Wayne.”
Ada had known Wayne for over six years. She had never seen him care about any woman. Once she
thought that this could her advantage. Since he wasn’t interested in women, all she had to do was to
upy the position of “Mrs. Wright” so that she could obtain everything she wanted. Besides, she
didn’t even need to worry that he would like another woman. But this woman in front of her managed to
make Wayne willing to solve her daughter’s education problem in person. This was too weird.
Now the gloves were off once Ada said so.
Anna took a deep breath and clenched her fists. She said angrily, “Miss Xavier, I suggest that you take
back what you said.”
“Why?” Ada snorted coldly, “Do you feel guilty?”
“Do you think that every woman around Mr. Wright would like to seduce him so that they can get his
money?”
“I think nine out of ten will do so. Who knows what was on your mind when you saved Matthew? Or can
you tell me how you, a manager in training, was able to send your daughter to Blue Castle? You just
wanted to make more chances to get closer to Wayne. I’m no stranger to the filthy thoughts of you
people. I have seen a lot of women like you.”
Seeing that Ada’s mind was full of evil thoughts and listening to her acerbic words, Anna asked with a
dark face, “A woman like me?”
“Yes. A shameless woman who achieves her goal by seducing rich men.” Ada twitched her mouth and
sneered at Anna, “I’m warning you now. Don’t cast your greedy eyes on the man and the things that
don’t belong to you. Otherwise, you need to be careful about your daughter.”
Anna’s hands clenched involuntarily when she heard Ada’s words. She said, “Miss Xavier, you are
responsible for what you said. I’m not interested in Mr. Wright at all. All your suspicion is only an illusion
because of nervousness.”
When Ada was about to say something more, she saw from the corner of her eye that a man she was
quite familiar with came out of the kindergarten. She immediately put a bright smile on her face and
turned around to greet him, “Wayne, why are you sote?”
“I got held up.” Wayne looked at her perfunctorily and then looked at Anna, who was standing behind
Ada. He asked, “I have some work to do at the hotel. Are you going with me?”
. Ada had already warned her. If she didn’t keep a distance from Wayne Wright now, Ada would take
her action as a deliberate provocation. She didn’t want to make any trouble, so she shook her head
quickly, “No, I’ll take a taxi.”
Wayne didn’t insist. He got into the car with Ada and went to the hotel.
Ada kept staring at Wayne on the way and saw that he seemed to be in a good mood. She was more
and more suspicious that something happened in the kindergarten. I
She carefully asked, “Wayne, I know Ms. Gabriel saved Matthew, but don’t you think that you have
been too kind to her?”
Looking out of the window at the street, Wayne said unemotionally, “Have I? You are Ehinking too
much.”
“It must be you who made the arrangement to get her daughter into Blue Castle.” Wayne’s face
darkened. He looked at the driver and said coldly, “?
“Gabe has been more and more careless in hiring people. Go to the ounting department this
afternoon to clear your sry. You don’t need toe tomorrow.”
“Mr. Wright.” The driver panicked, “I…Sorry…….”
“I asked him first.” Ada hurriedly exined, “It just came out of my mouth. I didn’t mean anything. Why
are you so serious about it? Will you admit now that you care too much about Anna Gabriel?”
“I’ve told you,” said Wayne in an annoyed tone, ncing at her impatiently, “You are thinking too much.”
“Really? I just think…”
“I don’t care what you think.” Wayne shot a warning nce at her, “If you won’t stop talking about this
topic, you can get out of the car now. You have had too many questionstely.”
Ada closed her mouth. Her hands unconsciously gripped on the purse on her knee, her knuckles white.
She had an instinct that Anna Gabriel was definitely not that simple.
