Chapter 224


    Nobody expected that the man would say something like that. Moreover, even the police officers


    around him didnt know how to respond He didnt cause anyone or himself any harm and all he did was


    just shouting a few words


    However, the crowd became agitated almost immediately. Then, nearly everyone dashed to Anna like a


    maniac


    “I just w Pages dever’s license Her name is Anna Gabnel and she’s Frank’s second daughter. You must


    etter and make her pay for you


    The man dederately continued shouting, trying to make things worse. Then, things became very


    turbulent


    Anna stood frozen in the crowd Although the young police officer beside her shielded her in his arms


    he was unable to prevent her from being dragged and kicked by the attackers


    “Get her’ Make her Erve our money back”


    *Give us out money


    All the workers yelled at Annar lunat


    Just as the polke there called the police station for backup there was a line of ck Porsches parked


    neatly on the street


    Then a doren of strong men got out of the cars Before the police could react to what was happening


    they walked through the crowd


    Everyone was making w for them then a young man in a suit walked brskly into that crowd


    When he walked out he was carrying Anna in his arms.


    The man mixuloutkappened and saved Anna However, she did not manage to see the scene Someone


    in the crowd huried something at her and hit her in the head, knocking her out before the man arned


    When she woke up she found that it was alreadyte at night


    She took a look around the room and noticed that it was decorated in a low-key but luxurious way


    vender scented candle was lit on the bed and the aroma made Anna feel calm and rxed.


    Anna sat up after propping her elbows on the pillows. The covers fell off her body at that very moment,


    revealing her pink silk nightgown


    *You ve finally woken up. Anna” She heard a familiar voie say something to her,


    And she noticed Jasper standing in the bedroom doorway when she looked up. Moreover, he was


    carrying a brown wooden dinner te in his hand.


    She saw that there was a bowl of chicken soup on the te. It wasn’t a big meal, but since Anna had


    been sleeping for a long time, it was what she needed most.


    “Hey, you’re stingy, Jasper! Why do you only give me soup when you can afford to live in such a big


    house?”


    While Anna was sitting on the bed and drinking the soup, Jasper sat on the chair next to the bed and


    read a travel magazine. He felt resigned after hearing her words and asked, “Can you eat a lot of food


    now?”


    “No, I can’t.”


    Jasper shook his head and whispered to Anna, as if she were a kid, “Come on, Anna, take a sip.When


    you’re feeling better, I’ll take you to a fancy restaurant for supper. You can’t eat too much because you


    have a head injury, ording to the doctor.”


    Anna looked up at the mirror across the room after hearing his words. Then, she was surprised that her


    head was wrapped in bandages, making her look like an unfinished mummy.


    She then expressed her dissatisfaction by saying, “Huh? Why are there so many bandages on my


    head?”


    She then suddenly gasped, as she had identally touched her wound. “Don’t touch it.” Jasper


    immediately frowned, as if he could feel the pain too.


    Anna didn’t dare to move when she saw him being so serious, and then made an “oh” sound with her


    lips pursed. Then, it dawned on her that he was the one who had saved her.


    Then she asked, “Jasper, did you save me?”


    “Are you disappointed because it’s not Wayne?” Jasper asked, looking at her with a puzzled


    expression.


    Anna had lost her appetite after hearing Wayne’s name for the second time that day. In a t tone, she


    said, “Do you have to bring him up? Since you now know everything about me, you must be aware that


    he and I are no longer together, right?”


    At that point, Jasper stopped reading the magazine. He stared at Anna’s face and said meaningfully, “If


    I hadn’t known that, I wouldn’t have turned up so promptly and saved you


    today.”


    Anna frowned and asked, “What do you mean by that?”


    Jasper didn’t answer the question, but he changed the subject by saying, “The workers all appeared to


    be waiting for you to arrive, so I have a feeling this was all staged. Anna, what do you think about that?”


    Anna frowned and said in disbelief, “What are you talking about? How is that possible? They didn’t


    even have to wait for me! You know, I’m not even involved with Gabriel’s group.”


    Jasper didn’t seem to think so. He said, “Isn’t it true that they’ve been attempting to me you for this?


    After all, you’re Frank’s second daughter. Even though you have nothing to do with the Gabriel Group,


    they don’t see it that way.”


    Anna agreed with him and quickly recalled what had happened during Allie’s funeral.


    “Do you think Dn did this?” she questioned, unsure.


    “It seems you’re not aplete i***t, Anna,” Jasper said such a mean word in a gentle tone.

    Feeling resigned, Anna rolled her eyes at him and said, “You’re the idiot.”


    Anna changed her clothes and followed Jasper downstairs to stroll about after she finished her soup.


    After Jasper rescued her, he was afraid that the group of workers would follow them to the hospital. So,


    he took her back to his home.


    “Oh, okay. What about Tammy? Did you see her yet?”


    Since Anna had to deal with many thingstely, she was too busy to let Tammy and Jasper meet.


    Tammy didn’t even know that their marriage was a sham. As a result, she assumed Jasper was her


    biological father.


    “Oh, I’ve met her. But, I just saw her at a distance. You know, it was so chaotic there. Before I took you


    away, I just asked Lily to say hello to your aunt on my behalf.”


    Anna gave him a nod before thanking him. In that emergency situation, she knew Jasper wasn’t in the


    mood to talk to Tammy.


    “So, how about I take Tammy to dinner with you?”


    Jasper nced at her and said as he was resigned, “You’ve already said that a few times before, Anna.


    I’m afraid I’ll be back in the States by the time you finally have time for supper. You’re really busy, aren’t


    you? I think you are even busier than the President of the United States.”


    “Oh, I’m sorry. But I’m serious this time. Why don’t you decide when will we have lunch? I’m sure I’ll


    have time for it this time.”


    “Really?” “Yes, I swear.”


    Jasper looked d as if the plot had worked. He immediately said, “How about this noon?”


    “Mr. Wright, I’ve gotten some reliable news. Just as you thought, Jasper’s now working with many


    companies in Birmingham. He’s looking for a business partner to help him develop an artificial


    intelligence product.”


    “Oh, whichpanies is he working with?” “I’vepiled a list.” Gabe ced a folder on Wayne’s


    desk right away.


    While Wayne was looking at it carefully, Gabe hesitated for a long time before asking, “Mr. Wright, did


    you watch the news today?”


    “Oh, no. What’s going on?” “Someone tried to jump off the Gabriel Group headquarters building.”


    Wayne paused and then asked calmly, “So? What happened then?” “Miss Gabriel went there at that


    time. After learning she was Mr. Gabriel’s daughter, the
