Chapter 240

After a while, Anna calmed down. As she reflected on the conflict between them two, she felt that they
needed to talk it out. After all, they could have worked it out properly and had a peaceful breakup.

“To be honest, I went there just to see what he wanted to do. Even if you didn’t go there, I wouldn’t
have gone into his room directly like a fool. Well, I think that someone may have told him to do so.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sabotaged my deal with Joan’s group just because he wanted to go out
with me. You know, he didn’t have to bother to get himself into so much trouble.”

Anna believed she had made her point very clearly. After that, she turned around and watched Wayne
carefully. She noticed that he kept frowning and didn’t seem to be listening to her.

Anna kept going, “So, if you were there because you were concerned about me, then you could just tell
me. You know, I’d definitely appreciate you doing that. We don’t have to fight, and we can work things
out together. That way, we can still be friends later.”

Wayne cut her off with a chilly and irritated voice, “That’s enough! No more bullshit, Anna. Just go!”

Anna frowned and explained, “Oh, I just think it’s so bad that we haven’t had a talk after that incident.
Wayne, we need to communicate calmly like adults.”

She deliberately did not say what that “thing” was because she didn’t dare to face it head-on.

At the same time, Wayne’s expression also changed after hearing that word. He frowned and fell silent.

“I’m sorry that I didn’t tell you the whole truth earlier. But I felt that I didn’t have to explain it since my
marriage to Jasper was nothing more than a deal. If Tammy and I didn’t have our green cards, we
would be illegal immigrants. In that case, we would not only have to worry about police officers
knocking on our door, but also about becoming illegal immigrants.”



“Oh, I see. So, that was why you married a random man for a green card?” Wayne inquired indifferently
since he was still perplexed as to why Anna was acting this way. However, compared to earlier, he was
calmer now that Anna had taken the initiative to bring

up this issue.

Anna denied it and explained, “No, I chose him for a reason, Jasper was not looking for a relationship
and was a total workaholic. He was short of money then, and I needed a green card. So, we took
advantage of each other. We didn’t live together after getting married and only saw one another once a
year around Christmas.”

Of course, she knew what Wayne was thinking. In fact, she understood where he was coming from
because everyone would care about who his lover had dated before. Besides,

wayne knew she hadn’t yet filed for divorce from Jasper.

Anna had planned to tell Wayne the whole truth when he asked about Jasper. She didn’t, though,
because Wayne said many hurtful things to her then and didn’t seem to trust her at all.

The look in Wayne’s eyes was of confusion and disbelief. He asked while clenching his fist, “So, your
marriage was a sham?”

Anna nodded solemnly. She thought they had misunderstood each other because they said things they
didn’t mean to in a fit of anger. Besides, Anna could totally tell from this that she and Wayne might not
be perfect for each other.

Wayne stared at her for a while as if thinking about this “ridiculous” fact. After some while, he finally
appeared frustrated. He lowered his head silently for a considerable amount of time after carefully
bending down and putting his long, thin fingers in his hair.



When Anna saw Wayne’s reaction, she felt weird. She said, “I’ve explained this to Karl before. Didn’t he
tell you that?”

Wayne slowly looked up and tried to stop himself from getting angry. He replied firmly, “No.”

His words were short but resentful, making Anna’s heart skip a beat. She felt at that moment that she
may have gotten Karl into big trouble.

Wayne seemed to lose his anger after Anna briefly clarified the misunderstanding.

Wayne then told her briefly what had happened this evening after he had stopped feeling uneasy.

“I overheard at the dinner party that Gerald wanted you to meet him at that hotel. Afterward, I told Gabe
to stop the car when I saw you close to the bar. Well, I thought that! wouldn’t have gone in there if you
left in a few minutes.” Wayne spoke in an embarrassed tone, which was rare.

Anna finished the rest of her sentence for him, “You assumed something bad had happened to me
when I didn’t come out for a long time, didn’t you?”

“Yeah.” Anna nodded awkwardly and then explained why she wasn’t in that room.

“Actually, I went to the wrong floor. When Gerard said he was in room 419, I thought it was on the
fourth floor. Yet, after walking back and forth on the fourth floor many times, 1 couldn’t find that room.
Well, I didn’t expect this hotel to call the largest suite on the top floor 419. It’s insane!”

So, with so many misunderstandings happening together, they met at the police station.

Just as they were chatting, Gabe came back with the medicine. When he saw that they were talking
calmly, he froze. Then, overwhelmed, he said, “Oh, hi. Am I interrupting you two?”



He felt shivers running down his spine after Wayne gave him a threatening stare. He said, “Oh, I’m
sorry, I forgot to get something. So..”

2/3 However, Anna stopped him and said, “Well, I know what you mean, and you don’t have to do that.
It’s pretty late now, so I’m leaving.”

Wayne immediately said, “I’ll give you a ride, Anna.”

Anna glanced at his chest and refused, saying, “Well, thanks, but you don’t have to. The doctor said
you’re not recovering very well. So, you’d better stay here and have a good rest. My hotel is just around
the corner, so I’ll walk back there. Uh, we’ll see each other again.”

She said, “See you later,” while holding the bag tightly in her palm.

Wayne stood still and looked at her back, and his gentle smile faded as she walked away. Then, when
he found his phone, he could no longer control his anger.

“Karl! Why didn’t you tell me that Anna’s marriage to Jasper was a lie?! Why?!!!”

His voice was like thunder on a July night as he yelled angrily. Even though Gabe had seen him acting
like that a lot, he was nevertheless filled with anxiety at that precise moment.

As he shuddered, the pill box in his hand nearly fell to the floor.

Gabe reacted quickly when he heard Wayne shout at Karl on the phone. Before the doctor and patient
could see him, he quickly shut the door. He then hid next to the door and texted Anna.

At that moment, Anna had just walked out of the hospital and was strolling in the moonlight. Then she
heard her cell phone peep.



She saw a text message, “Hi! Excuse me, but could you tell me what you said to Mr. Wright? Would
you mind telling me? He’s on the phone right now yelling at Mr. Xavier. So, want to get prepared for it.”
