The spaghetti that Anna cooked was not inferior to the dishes at the main meal.
On the table were six beautiful plates on which there were traditional meatloaf,ired chicken shepherd‘s pie, mac ‘n‘ cheese, roasted tacos, and tuna salad,
Anna filled a large plate with spaghetti for Wayne, added the sauce and the side dishes into it, and said, “Stil the spaghetti, and then you can eat it. It‘s very delicious.”
Alter saying that, she couldn‘t wait to fill another plate of spaghetti for herseli Holding the warm plate with his hands, Wayne gazed affectionately at her,
Generally speaking, those from rich families would always ask the maids and the cools to prepare food for them, and they just needed to wait to eat ready–cooked meals,
And Wayne had also lived like this since he was a child, He seldom saw his family cool and rarely ate the food cooked by his family,
At this moment, seeing Anna prepare food for him, he was touched and was reminded of both the happy and unpleasant memories of his childhood,
After eating a few mouthfuls of spaghetti, Anna felt very satisfied, From the corner of her eyes, she saw that Wayne still didn‘t stir the spaghetti,
“Why don‘t you eat it?” she asked in confusion. After thinking for a moment, she asked in a low voice, “You don‘t like it?”
“No, I like it.” Wayne answered, “Then go head and eat it before it gets cold.”
Then Anna said with an awkward smile, “You don‘t know how to stir them in the right way? Let me help you stir it, will you?” As she spoke, she reached her hand to Wayne‘s plate
“No, thanks,” Wayne said as he picked up the fork and began to stir the spaghetti by himself.
“I was not laughing at you” Anna, who thought that she was quite impolite just now, tried to explain. “In the past, when I lived at home, I never cooked or did housework. My stepmother and my sister were also like this because the maids would do anything for us.”
It was the first time that she had talked about her family with Wayne so Wayne was a little surprised
“Did your stepmother treat you well?” he asked gently “What do you think?” Anna asked helplessly and gave him a meaningful look
Il my stepmother treated me well, how could Allie and I be in such a bad relationship? How could Allie slander me and humiliate me at the engagement party of Jacob and Lilian that day? NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
Wayne frowned and asked, “You don‘t care about their attitudes toward you?”
“I don‘t care.” Anna ate a big mouthful of spaghetti and said, “They are not that important to
me. Those that treated me well and were important to me have passed away.”
Hearing that, Wayne was slightly stunned, thinking that he had touched her sore spot and

feeling sorry for her. Then he immediately apologized, “I‘m sorry.”
“It‘s okay,” Anna smiled bitterly and said. “You know what? Everyone in the Gabriel family told me that my mother died of illness. Even my grandfather also said so. But if my father didn‘t do anything that made my mother heartbroken, how could my mother be ill and die? Allie was born before my mother married him and was two months older than me. Do you know what it meant?”
“Do you hate your father?” Wayne asked.
Anna nodded, but then shook her head, saying, “I don‘t know. If he had treated me badly, I would have hated him. But he had been treating me very well since I was a child and was partial to me. He has never done anything bad to me. But I can‘t let go of what he has done to my mother.”
Back then, Anna‘s father started the business from scratch and established the Gabriel Group. If Anna‘s mother hadn‘t given him all her savings as the start–up capital, the Gabriel Group wouldn‘t have become what it was now.
“So you don‘t hate your father,” Wayne said, looking at Anna with mixed feelings.
“Maybe. And as his child, I have no right to interfere with the matter between my mother and him,” Anna raised her eyebrows and said with a bitter smile. “Besides, even if I hate him, I can‘t do
anything to him. After all, he‘s my father. If you were me, what would you do?”
“If I were you,” Wayne said in a cold and deep voice, “I would have kicked him and the mistress out of my home.”
Anna was stunned and looked at Wayne in surprise. “I‘m full,” Wayne said and then put down the fork on the table, making a slight noise.
Somehow, Anna could feel the anger in his tone and action. Wayne then walked upstairs and went back to his room on the second floor.
Watching his receding figure, Anna was confused and wondered, Did I say anything that offended him again?
In the master bedroom on the second floor, the light was dim. Wayne opened a book at the bedside table and looked at the photo that was torn in two.
Half of the photo was wrinkled and it was hard to tell the person on it. And in the other half was a little boy who rode on the shoulder of a handsome man, in high spirits.
Wayne held the photo in his hand tightly with his knuckles turning white. Staring at the man in the photo, he felt a little irritable and thought of the past.
For so many years, he had never thought that what he had done back then was wrong.
A few years ago, Wayne‘s mother betrayed his father and had an affair with another man, which indirectly caused the death of his father. Therefore, Wayne drove his mother away out of anger. He didn‘t think it was not wrong for him to do so.
However, just now Anna said that children had no right to interfere with the matter between their parents, which made him annoyed.
–….
The next morning, when Wayne went downstairs, Anna had made breakfast and was eating breakfast with the two children
“Good morning. The breakfast is ready.” Anna looked at him and said with a smile. “I cooked ereal. It‘s good for health.”
Wayne didn‘t say anything but just pulled out a chair and sat down quietly. And there was a certain coldness in his manner.
Anna noticed the change in his attitude and felt a little embarrassed. She still couldn’t figure out what she had done to make him unhappy.
In her heart, it didn‘t matter that Wayne didn‘t let her stay here but she didn‘t want his attitude to affect her mood and work efficiency.
The maid filled a bowl with cereal and placed it in front of Wayne. Without saying anything, Wayne picked up the bowl and ate all the cereal. Seeing this, Anna breathed a sigh of relief.
I‘d better be cautious and not do anything to offend him these days. I‘ll work hard and finish all the work for the centennial celebration as soon as possible so that I can move back home with
Tammy.
In the following days, Tammy and Anna had been staying in Kingsford Neighborhood.
In the morning, Anna and Wayne would send the two children to kindergarten together. And in the evening, Wayne picked the children up alone.
Whether Anna got off work late or early, she was just in time for dinner when she came back every day
She was quite surprised about it and didn‘t know why the cook could always prepare the dinner in time.
It took half a month to decorate the venue of the centennial celebration. After all the work had been done, Anna arranged for the staff of the Financial Department to pay the salary of the workers.
When Anna thought about whether she should get off work early to pick up Tammy, her phone suddenly rana
