Chapter 291


    Anna had known for a long time that Richard wanted to buy the Gabriel Group. He had been eager to


    do so since he became the president of the Wright group.


    Richard had been a rival to Wayne since he was a child and had always wanted to be a winner. He had


    rarely shown up in the past three years because he wanted to get stronger and then win the game.


    He had to admit, however, that Wayne was a genius: a genius who had built the foundation of the


    entire corporate culture. As a result, he believed he had a long way to go to rece Wayne. And


    Gabriel Group, a medium-sizedpany, became his primary target.


    He chose this group after careful deliberation for two reasons. First of all, Wayne worked there. Second


    of all, the Gabriel Group had been in a terrible situation since Frank’s death. Furthermore, he did not


    believe Anna could save the group alone.


    “They have confirmed the time and location for dinner tonight, Mr. Wright,” In a sweet voice, his lovely


    secretary said to him.


    Richard leaned back in his chair and used his right hand to turn the wedding ring on his finger. He


    smiled gently, but his face looked solemn


    “By the way, | also told Miss Xavier about it. She said she would definitely attend it.” The secretary


    added.


    Richard then nodded his head in satisfaction.


    Mr. John Gilbert of the Joan Group hosted the dinner that night.


    Anna went to the dinner alone because Peter had told Wayne to go, home and talk about something.


    “Miss Gabriel, it’s been a long time. You look fantastic.”


    Anna was surprised to see two people she knew sitting at the table after a small talk with John.


    John exined, “Ah, Mr. Wright brought his friend along for the asion. Do you mind it?”


    Annaughed, looked at the “friend” he referred to and said, “Oh, | certainly don’t mind. Well, it seems


    that Mr. Wright is really well respected, I’m surprised that you were able to invite Miss Xavier to dinner.”


    Hearing that, Ada blushed with embarrassment, and she said as calmly as possible, “Miss Gabriel, if


    you’re still upset with me for what happened before, please ept my apologies. If you don’t want to


    see me, I can leave.”


    John looked at them, puzzled, and asked, “Do you two know each other?”


    Anna chuckled and said, “Yeah. But because we didn’t know each other very well, | didn’t understand


    what she was saying, I can’t remember what she was referring to now because so many things have


    happened in the past.”


    Anna was well-versed in social etiquette. Almost the entire town was aware of Richard and Ada’s affair.


    However, people were afraid to bring it up in public because he was married.


    Anna had not anticipated him inviting Ada to the dinner party with him.


    In addition to Richard, representatives from the Joan Group and the Gabriel Group were present. John


    said he invited them to celebrate the fact that they could coborate. Everyone knew, however, that he


    was attempting to help Richard acquire the Gabriel Group.

    Everyone just ate and talked at first, and no one mentioned the acquisition.


    After a while, Wayne called Anna.


    Anna nned to go to the bathroom to answer the phone, so she could talk to him as much as she


    wanted.


    Everyoneughed and joked with her as she stood up.


    John stated, “Oh, Wayne called you, didn’t he? Are you nning to marry him soon? If so, you have to


    invite me to your wedding!”


    “Yeah, of course!” Anna joked.


    As soon as she walked to the bathroom, Anna answered the phone.


    “Anna, they didn’t give you a hard time, did they?” Wayne asked as soon as she answered the phone.


    Anna said as she leaned over the sink, “No. You know, they wouldn’t dare do anything to me. After all,


    I’m also a president. Well, you know what, Richard brought someone with him today. Guess who!”


    “Who is it?”


    Annaughed, attempting to tease him.


    “Ah, she’s your ex-girlfriend!” she eximed.


    Wayne paused for a moment before asking, “Well, who is it?”


    Anna was making herself angry instead of embarrassing Wayne.


    Dissatisfied, she answered, “It’s Ada. Does this name ring a bell to you? They arrived here arm in arm,


    like a married couple. Do all men have mistresses after they marry?”


    Wayne deliberately asked, “Is that right? Well, | know many men who have more than one mistress.”


    “What did you say?” Anna asked.


    “But,” Wayne chuckled, “I only love you. And | will never have a mistress.”


    He did figure out the trick to coaxing Anna. Just as the two were chatting, Anna heard someone walk


    in.


    She immediately said, “Well, | have to hang up now; someone’sing. I’l talk to you when | get home


    tonight.”


    Wayne replied, “Okay, fine. I’lle pick you up.


    She hung up the phone before Wayne could finish his words.


    Hearing the sound of high heels on the marble floor, Anna looked up as she washed her hands. Then


    she saw a woman she knew well.


    Anna was familiar with Ada, not only because the woman used to be around Wayne but also because


    she had recently attended many social events.


    Anna admired Ada’s strongworking abilities.
