Chapter 451 I’m Here, Anna


    Ryan didn’t deny it. Then he showed her a few screenshots of the surveince footage.


    Seeing the screenshots, Anna was taken aback and felt a shiver running down her spine. “What’s


    wrong with them?” she asked.


    “He was too far away from the surveince, and it waste at night, so the shots were blurry. Later that


    night, | watched every surveince video of the hospital. | finally found him on surveince video in


    front of the first-floor bathroom.”


    Thest picture was not from the footage she had found. However, this made her feel extremely


    ufortable and shocked her. A few secondster, she said in surprise, “They both have the same


    tattoo!”


    Ryan nodded.


    In the screenshot, Anna saw a man in a mask and a cap. He’d just gotten out of the bathroom and was


    kneeling on the floor, tying his shoes. And Anna could see the tattoo on the back of his neck in that


    image. Anna was correct in her suspicions. But when she was confronted with all of this evidence, she


    became overwhelmed.


    Ryan noticed that Anna was bing increasingly frustrated. He lowered his gaze and pursed his lips


    as if thinking about something. “Actually, there’s one more thing,” he said after a long pause.


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    Anna felt the world shake in front of her and began to sweat. “Go on,” she said, despite feeling pain in


    her abdomen.


    Ryan’s final disy to Anna was a photograph of the people protesting in front of Lemon that


    afternoon. The image had appeared in 450 I’m Here, Anna every relevant news report. What puzzled


    Anna was that it had been stolen from Lemon’s office building’s bay window. However, Ryan was


    preupied with something other than who had taken a photograph.


    Although the image was blurry, Anna recognized the tattoo on the back of the neck of the man who


    happened to have his head down. It was the exact same tattoo.


    Though be less shocked and moreposed, Anna was experiencing growing difort. She


    had to hold on to the table to keep from falling over.


    “Ryan, I’m exhausted. Please send me home.” Anna stood up, saying tiredly.


    Ryan realized there was something wrong with her and immediately ran after her. She came to a halt


    just as she was about to leave the restaurant, paused for a moment, and then returned.


    She trembled as she stared at a picture of the best employee of the year on the wall next to the


    counter. Then she raised her head and looked Ryan in the eyes as if asking him with her eyes whether


    the man in the picture was also a gang member.


    Ryan nodded tacitly and said, “He works the night shift every day, so he’s not here right now.”


    Anna felt a sudden roar in her ears as Ryan finished speaking. The world then spun like a washing


    machine drum.


    Unconscious, Anna had a vision. She was lying on a patch of green grass in her dream. The sky was


    blue, the water was clear, and a light floral scent was in the air.


    “Anna.”


    ‘Someone was calling her name. As she stood up, she noticed Mona waving at her. She wanted to run


    towards her right away. 450 I’m Here, Anna


    However, the next second, Mona’s face twisted and contorted, and her entire body vanished from the


    image. Then the people around her began to vanish in the same way: Peter, Selina, Peace… She


    desperately grabbed the hand of the person beside her and began to run frantically.


    While running, she noticed that the face of the person beside her was distorting and disappearing. The


    blue sky turned blood-red as if it were made of blood. She smelled the strong scent of blood and heard


    a voice from the sky, “Go to hell!”


    “Wayne!”


    Anna jerked awake and rose from her bed. When Wayne saw how terrified she appeared, he took her


    hand in his and wrapped her in his arms, saying, “I’m here, sweetheart.” His firm voice calmed her


    down


    “had a nightmare.” Anna pressed her face against Wayne’s muscr chest, closing her eyes. She


    inhaled the smell on his body hard as she realized he was the only one who could put her mind at


    ease.


    Earlier, when Wayne got Ryan’s call, he was at the office dealing with PR issues for Anna. He rushed


    home as soon as he learned she fainted and sat by her bedside all night without even taking off his


    shirt.


    “You need to get some rest now, honey. I’ll help you get it all sorted out,” Wayne said. He then leaned


    back on the bed and then wiped her sweaty body with a wet towel.


    Anna just stood there silently, watching him carefully wipe her fingers. “| was ufortable because |


    was on my period at the time. I’ll be fine in a few days,” Anna said.


    Wayne approached her slowly and reached into her nightgown to wipe her back. “I won’t allow anything


    to happen to you, not even when you’re on your period.” Wayne said in a firm voice. He continued to


    rub her body with the warm towel. After that, he pressed his lips to Anna’s ear, 450 I’m Here, Anna


    which made her heart beat faster.


    Anna lowered her head and asked, “Did Ryan tell you all about it”


    “Yes.”


    “They had hurt Mona and Grandpa before, and they had done it again to Lemon. I’m not sure what


    they’re trying to do or why they’re doing it. I’m not sure what they’ll doter.”


    “I know,” Wayne said softly. After a brief pause, he said slowly, “Please, believe me, honey. Ill take care


    of everything.”


    After that, Wayne gently hugged her and kissed her on the cheek. She burst outughing at the


    unexpected kiss.


    “Okay.” She nodded, realizing she wasn’t as invincible as she once was. And she’d be vulnerable


    with Wayne around.


    Later on, Wayne took care of things for Anna. He handled Lemon’s and the Carousel Group’s affairs


    and delegated the problem to his public rtions manager.


    Two dayster, the Carousel Group’s PR department devised a n and invited Anna to attend a press


    conference.
