Chapter 102


    After a while, Anna’s partner who sat opposite her quickly understood what Anna meant and yed a


    card. “Two!”


    Anna’s eyes lit up with joy.


    When she was about to y the card that she didn’t want, a deep voice came from beside her. “Joker.”


    Wayne looked at her calmly and said, “It’s your turn.”


    Anna forced a smile and said stiffly, “Pass.”


    Then she thought unhappily. He must have known which card I was going to y so he yed the


    Joker on purpose!


    In the next few rounds, Anna didn’t even have the chance to y any of her cards because of Wayne.


    “Yeah! We won again! You are awesome, sir!” the girl who was Wayne’s partner cheered excitedly. She


    was only about eighteen years old and seemed to be a college student.


    As for the other girl, Anna’s partner, she also fixed her eyes on Wayne all the time


    The two girls were not in the mood to y cards at all. After the first round, they took turns to chat with


    Wayne and ask about his age and work while acting cute.


    Seeing them like this, Anna was speechless. Then she put the cards on the table and said, “Let’s stop


    here.”


    Hearing this, the two girls who had long wanted to end the game were happier and paid all their


    attention to Wayne.


    “Sir, you are thirty-one years old? Are you married?” A girl asked Wayne with affection in her


    eyes.


    When Anna heard this, her heart skipped a beat and she suddenly felt displeased.


    Can‘t they see me? Didn‘t they ever think that I might be Wayne‘s girlfriend or wife? Did they


    deliberately ignore me?


    At the same time, she pricked up her ears to listen to Wayne’s answer. Leaning against the backrest of


    the chair, Wayne said calmly, “My son is five years old


    now


    Hearing this, the two girls were stunned.


    Anna had thought that the girls wouldn’t badger Wayne anymore after they knew that he had a child


    However, to her surprise, the girls’ eyes brightened and they pulled their chairs to sit closer to Wayne


    “You already have a child! Sir, can I have a look at your son’s photos?” “Sir, you are so handsome. Your


    son must be very good-looking, too.”


    Sitting aside, Anna clenched her fists with a darkened face. A few secondster, she took out her


    phone from her pocket and said, “I have some photos of his son. I’ll show them to you.”


    The two girls were slightly surprised.


    One of them asked, “Miss, aren’t you his subordinate? Why do you have his son’s photos?”


    Anna raised her eyebrows and said, “Who says that a subordinate can’t have the photos of the boss’s


    son? I not only have his son’s photos but also have a group photo with his son.”


    As she spoke, she showed the girls a photo of Wayne, Matthew, Tammy, and her which was taken in


    the Maldives.


    Looking at the photo, the two girls were dumbfounded.


    “It turns out that you are a couple,” a girl said and smiled awkwardly. “I thought that you two were just


    boss and subordinate just now.”


    Out of the corner of her eye, Anna saw Wayne watching them leisurely. Then she thought of something


    and said to the girls, “You haven’t graduated yet, have you?”


    The two girls shook their heads.


    “When you graduate, you will know that society is much moreplicated than the university. Many


    things aren’t like what you think. Sometimes, the rtionship between two people is not what they


    appear to be.”


    “What?” The girls were confused. “I’m not his wife,” Anna said with a meaningful look.


    Hearing this, the two girls looked at each other in astonishment. After a while, they seemed to


    understand something and walked away silently.


    It was raining outside and the hall was still noisy. After the two girls left, Wayne had been gazing at


    Anna with a faint smile.


    Clearing her throat, Anna sat upright and said, “I didn’t mean to drive them away. I just think they look


    underage and are not suitable to be Mathew’s stepmother.”


    “So you cooked up a story that I have an affair with you?” Wayne asked and looked into her eyes.


    Even a fool could tell what her meaningful words meant just now.


    “I didn’t say that. I just told them that the society isplicated,” Anna said frankly. “What’s more, Mr.


    Wright, a clean hand wants no washing. You are upright and principled. You won’t mind it if others


    misunderstand you, will you?”


    Hearing this, Wayne didn’t say anything for a while.


    “Why are you looking at me like that?” Anna felt uneasy being gazed at him and regretted talking


    nonsense just now.


    “Anna,” Wayne suddenly called her name, sat up straight, sped his hands together, and rested them


    on the table. Then he leaned forward slightly and fixed his eyes on Anna.

    “What’s up?” Anna was stunned, “Have we met before you entered thepany?” Wayne asked.


    Hearing this, Anna suddenly calmed down and her passion disappeared. And only Wayne‘s question


    echoed in her mind.


    “Why do you suddenly ask this?” She pretended to be surprised and asked. “Have you ever seen me


    before I entered Carousel Hotel?”


    Wayne paused and then leaned on the backrest of the chair again. “I don’t know. I can’t remember.”


    Even if I have seen her before, I shouldn‘t have had such a sense of familiarity when I‘m with her. It


    doesn‘t make sense. Maybe it‘s just my illusion, he thought.


    “Herees the gumbo!” At this moment, the receptionist’s loud voice came. Soon, she served every


    guest a bowl of fragrant gumbo.


    “The gumbo was cooked by the proprietress in person to apologize for any inconvenience caused by


    the power failure just now. Hope you can enjoy it.”


    The receptionist was smart and tactful. Even if no one was dissatisfied because of the power failure,


    she still apologized to every guest sincerely.


    Anna tasted the gumbo and said to Wayne, “The gumbo is so tasty. This hotel is worthy of ranking first


    on the hot hotel list in this town.”


    “Is it so delicious?” Wayne asked with his face full of doubt and then took a sip. The next moment, he


    frowned.


    “What do you think of it?” Anna asked. She didn’t notice the change in Wayne’s expression and


    continued, “The decoration of this hotel is designed by the proprietress. When I chatted with her before,


    she asked me about you. She also said that she had heard a lot about you. Although she didn’t know


    you, she seems to pay much attention to you.”


    After hearing this, Wayne stood up and stopped the receptionist who was about to leave. Then he


    asked with a darkened face, “What’s the proprietress’ name?”


    The receptionist was startled and asked, “What’s wrong?”


    At the same time, the clear sound of a porcin bowl falling on the ground came from the kitchen


    In an instant, the noises in the hall disappeared and the guests all looked in the direction of the kitchen,


    When Anna turned around, she saw Jennie hurriedly turn around and go back into the kitchen And at


    the kitchen door was a bowl broken into pieces and the gumbo scattering all over the ground


    Seeing Jennie’s behavior, Anna was confused


    Suddenly, she heard the sound of a chair rubbing against the ground. Turning her head in surprise, she


    saw Wayne go upstairs with a darkened face


    What‘s going on? Did I say anything that made him unhappy?


    Then thinking of what she had said just now and Jennie’s flustered look, she realized something
