Chapter 180


    Gabe was standing in the doorway of the lounge while Anna and Wayne were arguing,


    After a while, he nced at his watch and saw that they had been in there for fifteen minutes.


    Charlotte hade there several times on purpose to hear what they were saying. But, Gabe had told


    her to leave


    Gabe thought, they‘d been in there for such a long time. So, are they going to make up?


    As he was expecting it, he heard the sound of the door opening. Then, Anna stepped


    out.


    “Miss Gabriel, hello,” Gabe said.


    “Oh, no, Gabe, you can call me Anna now. I‘m not the manager of the hotel anymore.” Anna nced at


    Gabe indifferently


    Gabe was frozen when he noticed Wayne walking out with a grim face as well.


    He immediately became frustrated. He thought to himself. So, they‘re getting back together? But I


    didn‘t think so. They looked like they had another big fight and were ready to break up for good. Oh my


    God, how could this happen?


    Then the party started. And the Wilson family was toasting all the guests there with champagne


    Anna had been following Peace and Scott around since she came out of the lounge. After a while,


    Randal joined them and introduced them to other guests from time to time.


    “How did Randal know them? That‘s so weird!” Charlotte felt confused and asked her mother.


    Evelyn was already in her sixties. However, because she had spent her life making herself more


    beautiful, she still looked rtively young and pretty. When she saw the four of them in the distance,


    her eyes lit up. She said, “Oh, you‘re right. Howe Randal knows them so well? Charlotte, who‘s


    that girl over there? Is she married?”


    Evelyn Wilson was from Irnd, and was a gentle and sweet woman. She spoke in a very kind way as


    if Anna were her friend.


    Charlotte looked at them and asked hesitantly, “Which one are you asking about, Mom? There are two


    girls there.”


    “Oh, I‘m talking about the one in that cute ck dress. I saw her just talking to Randal. That‘s weird. I


    remember that Randal rarely talks to girls. Could it be that she is his girlfriend?”


    Charlotte suddenly felt delighted and quickly said, “Oh, I know her. That‘s Anna, and she is an


    employee of Wayne‘spany. I heard that she is single. Mom, do you like her?”


    “Oh, she seems sweet. But I don‘t know if she‘s the best person to be Randal‘s wife. You know, his ex–


    wife doesn‘t care about Randal at all. So, they divorced just after getting married for a while.“

    “Well, mom, you don‘t have to worry about that! No offense, but she‘s really a wife material. You know,


    she has a daughter. Let me tell you, that child is very polite and cute.”


    Evelyn blinked and asked in surprise, “What? She already has a daughter? Oh, she looks so young. I


    didn‘t expect that she had a child already.”


    “Yeah. But, she got divorced a long time ago. So, she‘s raising her kid alone. Don‘t take me wrong, but


    do you think it‘s a good idea to let Randal marry a divorced woman?” Charlotte asked deliberately,


    wanting to check her mother‘s attitude.


    However, as Charlotte expected, her mother didn‘t care about it at all. Evelyn just waved her hand and


    smiled.


    She blinked her big, innocent eyes like a teenage girl and said, “Gosh! Charlotte, I really didn‘t expect


    that you would mind this. If you ask me, I think it‘s totally fine. As long as Randal likes her, I‘ll give them


    my blessing. Besides, Randal has a daughter too! It would be great if the two kids can hang out


    together. Well, honey, I‘m going to say hello to Anna.”


    “Hey, Mommy, don‘t go!” Charlotte pretended to stop her mother, but she couldn‘t. She snickered and


    walked behind Evelyn.


    If my mother could help me set Anna up with Randal, that would be great! That way, she can help me


    solve a huge problem easily. Charlotte thought to herself.


    Anna was sitting on the couch with Peace. After she told Peace what Wayne had just asked her, Peace


    immediately became outraged. If Anna hadn‘t stopped her, she would have snapped right away.


    “S**t! Wayne is such an i***t! How could he have the nerve to ask such a question? These two kids are


    all yours!” Peace said furiously.


    Although Anna had figured this out, she was still a little depressed. She drank the wine in her ss and


    said, “Forget it, Peace. Don‘t be mad. He doesn‘t know the truth, so it‘s not his fault. He can think


    whatever he wants, and I don‘t give a damn about it.”


    Then Peace added, “I‘m telling you, he‘s gonna be so regretful.”


    Anna finished her ss of wine, thinking. This evening is a real mess! Well, I‘ve seen the jokes and


    had fun, and I‘d better get going.


    So, Anna looked at Randal and said she was about to leave. Then, Scott immediately stood up and


    said, “I’ll go with you guys.”


    “Well, I‘ll see you off.” Randal stood up as well.


    Anna and Peace looked at each other. They both knew what Randal meant and thenughed together


    “Hey, please wait for me!” The four of them had just reached the door when they heard a woman say


    that. And they looked back and saw that it was Evelyn.


    Evelyn walked faster and caught up with them.


    “Randal, are they your friends? Oh, please don‘t go yet. Why don‘t you introduce them to


    me?”


    Randal looked at his mother and said, “Oh, Mom, not now. I‘m just about to send them home.”


    Evelyn looked at Anna and said, “Yes, you‘re right. You should be a gentleman and send


    these twodies home. You know, you don‘t have toe back so soon, honey.”


    Anna thought her words were a little bit odd. Just as she was thinking about it, Evelyn walked up to her


    She quickly surveyed Anna and said, “Hello there, youngdy. Charlotte told me that you are an


    employee of Wayne‘s May I know your name, please”


    Anna froze and said hesitantly, “Ms. Wilson, hi. I‘m Anna Gabriel. I wanted to say hello to you just now,


    but you seemed so busy So, I didn‘t dare to disturb you. I‘m really sorry.”


    Evelyn smiled gently and said, “Gee, that’s okay You don’t have to apologize to me. You know, it‘s the


    first time that Randal let us see him , um his girlfriend.”


    When Anna realized that Evelyn had misunderstood something, she immediately exined, “Oh, no


    Ms Wilson I‘m just a friend of Randal, and I‘m not his girlfriend”


    Evelyn winked and smiled, “Oh, that‘s okay You two can take your time and get along. Randal may


    seem aloof, but he treats everyone around him very well. You know, Randal’s assistant is a man But,


    he doesn‘t even let him carry heavy things.”


    Speaking of Randal‘s assistant, Anna immediately thought of that fussy man He didn‘te today?


    What happened? Anna thought to herself


    Anna knew that there was a reason why Randal didn‘t let his assistant do the heavy lifting. Evelyn


    didn’t seem to know that Randal might treat his assistant as a girl. He was so nice to his assistant


    because he took pity on him.


    Evelyn was very enthusiastic and walked them to the front door. Afterward, she invited Anna to visit


    their home someday, which made Anna so ttered


    So, Anna still felt confused when she got into the car


    “Randal, I think your mother seems to have misunderstood something.” Anna said in a daze


    Randal folded his arms and looked at Anna with a poker face. He said, “Oh, yes. It‘s obvious that she


    wants to make us a couple.”

    Scott immediately snapped He tried to stand up, but identally hit his head on the car‘s roof.


    Although he felt pain, he yelled at Randal. “What the hell?! Jesus Christ! You know what you should tell


    your mother to knock it off You‘re thest man Anna would date in the world.”


    Randal smiled at him and asked, “What‘s wrong? Are you jealous?”


    Scott was outraged and roared, “S**t! Stop your bullst! How can I be jealous because of you? Damn!”


    Scott had always been a gentle and polite young man. Also, this was the first time in Anna‘s life that


    she had heard Scott say so many swear words in a row. What he saidpletely changed his image in


    her mind and overwhelmed her for a moment.


    Moreover, she had experienced too many things at the party. So, she felt a pain in her chest in the face


    of these ridiculous things.


    “Anna, are you okay?” Peace felt worried and asked her Anna waved her hand and said, “Oh, thanks,


    I‘m fine. I just need to have some rest.”


    At that moment, Randal and Scott stopped arguing. Randal then asked, “Anna, will you resign from the


    hotel? Also, do you want to work in mypany?”
