“What?” A maid covered her mouth in surprise and said in a low voice, “Really? Now Ms. Gabriel
appears, and Matthew really likes her. Does this mean…?”
“Behave yourself and be respectful. Maybe she will be thedy of the house.”
Anna was busy eating with the two children. She didn’t know that Matthew’s friendly attitude towards
her had aroused the servants’ wild imagination andbelled her as the future Mrs. Wright.
It was already three o’clock when the meetings were over, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.
Gabe had already ordered some food for him and put it on the table in his office.
“Mr. Wright, why don’t you eat first? I will put the copy of the meeting minutes in yourputerter.”
Wayne pinched between his eyebrows and slightly nodded, exhausted. He had been working nonstop
and hadn’t eaten anything since seven in the morning.
After resting for a while, Wayne called home. He put his phone aside and opened the speaker while
eating.
His butler quickly answered and asked respectfully, “Mr. Wright, have you finished your meetings?”
“Yeah, just finished. How are things at home?”
“Everything has been fine. Please rest assured. Ms. Gabriel and Matthew are having a good time. Her
daughter also gets along well with him.”
While they were talking, Wayne heard Tammy’sughter on the other end of the phone.
“Matthew, your toy is really funny. Hahahaha.”
Although he didn’t hear Matthew’s voice, he could naturally imagine how happy Matthew was with
Tammy’s happyughter. Wayne soon stopped frowning.
“Well, look out for the children.”
“Mr. Wright, do you still need to work? Ms. Gabriel asked me whether you wereing for dinner.”
“No, I’ve had n tonight.”
Wayne said calmly, “I’ll go back after dinner. If I’m toote, remember to tell the driver to send Anna
and her daughter home.”
Hanging up the phone, he was overwhelmed by mixed feelings. Holding the fork and
ing at the delicious food, he suddenly lost his appetite. Somehow, he thought of the food that Anna
brought to the hospitalst weekend. She must be preparing for dinner now. She will definitely cook by
herself though there are lots of servants in the house. What will they eat tonight?
“Mr. Wright, the restaurant said they forgot the soup. It has just been sent here.” Gabe suddenly
knocked on the door and came in, with an insted food box in his hand.
Wayne stared at the silver food box and suddenly put down the fork. He suddenly stood up, “Gabe,
cancel the dinner for me. I don’t want to go.”
“What?” Gabe asked, still holding the food box, “Why not? Do you have any important thing to do? It’s
the banquet of the Birmingham Trade Fair!”
However, Wayne ignored him and took his coat and went outside.
He burned up the road on his way and saw a bakery halfway. He bought two boxes of snacks. It was
still not nightfall when he arrived home. He stepped out of the car in the glow of sunset and heard the
laughter in the yroom on the second floor.
When Wayne pushed the door open, Anna was standing there, her hands covered by flour, and
pointing to Tammy, who was excitedly jumping on the trampoline, “Come down, Tammy Gabriel. Cut it
out! I’m going to make dinner. You can’t jump on it without my watch. You’ll fall down.”
“Matthew, you haven’t recovered from the injury yet. Don’t monkey around with Tammy.”
With one hand on the door, Wayne was astonished by the scene. Matthew had always been a quiet
boy. But now he was rolling on the trampoline with Tammy. He was wearing a Spider-Man costume and
made the Spider-Man iconic hand gesture once in a while. Did my son really break his arm?
With Anna’s warning, the two children looked at each other, stuck out their tone and finally got out of
the trampoline quietly.
“That’s it. Don’t mess around. You can y after I finish cooking. Alright?”
Anna pointed to Tammy’s nose, “Take care of Matthew. Don’t y crazily with him. He hasn’t recovered
yet. His arm is still in the cast.”
Tammy smiled broadly, “OK, mommy. I know. We won’t jump on the trampoline.” Anna finally turned
around in satisfaction.
She didn’t see that there was a man at the door because she was still looking at the children from the
corner of her eyes, and then she collided with him.
“Ouch!” Anna shouted, her forehead hitting a firm chest. She raised her head in pain and finally saw
clearly who that man was. She took a few steps back in a fluster.
“Sorry. Sorry…” She saw that there were two white handprints on Wayne’s ck shirt while flour was
still falling from it.
Wayne stood there angrily. “Sorry.” Anna quickly walked to him, “Let me help you clean it.” She patted
on his chest. The handprints were surely gone, but now the whole shirt was
covered by flour. Wayne choked and coughed, covering his mouth, and pushing her away.
“Anna Gabriel, are you taking revenge on me? Ahem ahem…”
Anna gave a shake of her head, “No… Of course not. I was going to cook dinner. I was making a
dough. How could I know that you were standing at the door?”
“So it is my fault?”
“You shouldn’t have stood there without even making a sound.” Anna whispered guiltily.
Face darkening, Wayne said in a deeper voice, “Anna Gabriel, have I been too friendly to youtely?”
“No. No. No.” Anna shook her hand and exined leisurely, “You see, I was making a dough because I
wanted to make some snacks for your son. I got your shirt dirty also because I wanted to make some
snacks for your son. Think about it. Which is more important, your shirt or your son?”
Wayne was speechless. He frowned and didn’t bother to retort her. He suddenly changed the topic,
“I’ve got servants at home. Is it necessary for you to cook? I invited you here to y. Not cook. Now
you may look happy. I guesster you will me me for forcing you to work on the weekend.”
“What you make is definitely different from what the servants make.” Anna rolled her eyes and raised
her eyebrows, “Believe it or not. If you can make some snacks for Matthew, he will be thrilled, even if
they are not as delicious as the food the servants make.”
“Don’t bother. I’ve bought some.” Wayne showed her the dessert box in his hand. “It’s different from
homemade food.” Anna suddenly thought of something, “Wait, are you free tonight?” Wayne looked at
her and answered casually, “Yeah.”
“Great. Let’s go to the kitchen. I can teach you how to make a dough and cookies. Come on.”
