Chapter 369

369 | Will Give You Compensation

Anna went to the hospital as soon as she got the call. The operation had been going on for half an hour
since she arrived

Wayne sat on the sofa near the door, wearing a black coat. He had no expression on his face and
appeared to be in a daze. After a while, a doctor came out of the operating room. Wayne immediately
stood up and inquired, “How is she?”

“We’re still trying to save her.” A nurse said, then closed the door to the operating room.

Wayne clenched his fists. He had always been calm, but he was shaking at that moment without
knowing what to do. On the other hand, Anna appeared calm because it was not the first time she had
witnessed such a scene

Tammy had suffered from asthma since she was born. When Anna travelled to the United States, she
brought a large sum of money with her. But she ran out of cash soon because she had to pay for
Tammy’s medical bills and surgery. As a result, she had to go to work. Despite spending a fortune over
the past five years, she could not cure Tammy’s asthma

She looked at Wayne’s worried expression as if she were seeing herself for the first time outside the
emergency room, waiting for Tammy. Anna paused for a moment before finally saying, “Please take a
seat. She’ll be fine.”

Wayne looked at her in a daze as if something had occurred to him. He asked after a long while,
“Tammy’s had a lot of surgeries over these years, right?” 368 | Will Give You Compensation

He had known before that Tammy had asthma. He’d even used it to persuade Anna to let Tammy and
Matthew attend the same kindergarten. However, at that time, Wayne didn’t pay attention to this, and



he had no idea that this cheerful little girl was his own daughter. “She often had to have surgery when
she was younger, but she rarely had an attack after she was three. After that, she knew she was not
allowed

to play strenuous sports or go to places that are crowded. In summer, I won’t allow her to go out too
often and always make sure she has first aid supplies with her. Tammy’s still a child, though. And she
forgot to bring to bring first aid supplies with her from time to time. As a result, she usually has one or
two attacks per year.”

Anna spoke calmly as if she were telling someone else’s story. Nonetheless, Wayne was heartbroken.
He hadn’t spent much time with Tammy, but she struck him as a cheerful and sweet young girl. She
made him feel the warmth that Matthew could not give him. And he had no idea that such a sweet little
girl was constantly suffering from illness.

Then Wayne was lost in thought, Tammy/is physically ill while Matthew’s mentally traumatized. |
could’ve provided them with a happy family but failed to do so. Damn it! What the hell was | thinking?!
Why would I decide to have children with a surrogate back then? None of these would’ve happened if I
hadn’t made those stupid mistakes!

“Was Jasper always with you when Tammy had a seizure?” Wayne asked. He wanted Anna to tell him
the answer he wanted to comfort him At that critical moment, he didn’t want to reckon with Jasper
about what had happened before. He hoped Anna had someone by her side when she had a nervous
breakdown over her child.

To his surprise, Anna shook her head and said, “I hadn’t met him when I first arrived in America. At that
time, Tammy’s health was at its worst. | 368 | Will Give You Compensation couldn’t even fall asleep
every day because I was so worried. I was afraid I’d wake up one day to find she’d stopped breathing,”

Wayne was heartbroken and at a loss for words.



“Back then, I got pregnant unexpectedly and was unprepared. I had no idea what to do or how to do it.
At that time, no one told me how to bea good mother. So, I had to figure it out on my own. Tammy
became such a mature child because of this. I was raised to be overly compassionate. As a result, I’m
always unwilling to compete for things and I tend to easily forgive others. So, others always treated me
casually. But I don’t want Tammy to grow up like that. I want her to be a carefree child that can do
whatever she likes.”

Hearing her heartfelt words, Wayne was deeply touched, extended his hand to her and attempted to
hug her. But then, the lights went out in the operating room and interrupted his movement.

“How did it go?” Anna asked right away.

The doctor took off his mask and responded, “She is fine, but she will be in intensive care for some
time. Which of you two will handle the procedures for her?”

“Me.” Anna and Wayne both said it almost simultaneously.

Henry sighed in relief and said, “I’ll do it. Thank you, doctor, and God bless you. Wayne, Anna, you can
have a good talk here.” Henry had been nervous since discovering Tammy in the trunk. He had no idea
why she was there, but he knew if anything happened to her, he would be screwed.

Anna and Wayne went to a cafe near the hospital after Tammy was admitted to the intensive care unit.
It was already late afternoon, and neither had eaten anything at noon. So, they ordered a simple meal.

Anna said as she sipped her coffee, “I know Matthew means a lot to you, and Tammy means a lot to
me as well. So, even though | want to get custody of Matthew so badly, I’ve never made up my mind to
do so. I know he can’t live without you.”



Wayne froze because that was not what Jasper had said that day. However, he still listened to Anna’s
story without interrupting her, “You got the wrong surrogate girl six years ago. After | found out I was
pregnant, my first reaction was to get an abortion. I was only a sophomore then, and | knew | couldn’t
afford to be a single mom.”

When it came to what happened back then, the atmosphere became strange, and Wayne looked
embarrassed

Anna took a deep breath and said, “But you used my father’s group to threaten me, and I had no
choice but to agree. The more I got to my due date, the more | regretted it. I didn’t want to give my child
to you then because he’s not a commodity but my baby. So, when the doctor told me had another child
in my belly, I paid them a little money to help me hide it. Then | left the country with Tammy.”

Wayne said hesitantly, “Believe it or not, I didn’t threaten you at all. After Leo found out he got the
surrogacy thing wrong, he kept it from me.”

Anna froze for a moment. She said as she looked down and stirred the foam in her coffee, “It doesn’t
matter because it’s all happened. I’ve had two children, and I’m giving you one. I’m not taking Matthew
away from you. I want Tammy to stay with me because she can’t live without me.”

Wayne was irritated because he hadn’t mentioned taking Tammy away, and Anna brought it up. “Is that
what you’re trying to say?” he inquired.

Anna nodded hesitantly, “! don’t want to go to the trial. I don’t want to 368 | Will Give You
Compensation make a big deal about it because it’s bad for all of us. If the kids find out about it later,
they will be upset as well. I still want to settle this matter peacefully with you.” “Peacefully?” Wayne
asked.



When Anna noticed Wayne wasn’t upset, she said, “I’ll take Tammy to America, and I’ll come back to
see Matthew once every six months. What do you think?”

Wayne felt sympathetic toward Anna at first. But when he heard her words, he immediately regretted it.
He frowned angrily and thought, /t seems that you really only care about two kids, but not me. Anna,
you didn’t even think about our future.

After a long time, he glared at Anna and said, “Since you signed the contract with Leo in the first place,
the children will be mine. According to the contract, you can’t take Tammy away. Since she’s in poor
health and can’t leave you, you’re free to take her. But you’ll no longer be able to see Matthew. You’ve
had a difficult time recently, and I’ll compensate you with money.”

“What?” Anna froze, not knowing what he meant.

“You’ve decided to drop the case, haven’t you? I’ll give you money for the sake of our relationship and
the two kids.”

Anna’s face turned pale. She said, “No, that’s not what I want. Wayne, you don’t understand what I’m
saying. I’m just trying to talk to you…” Wayne interrupted her, “That’s enough! You don’t want to see me
again later, do you? Then the negotiation ends now. Anna, how much is your phony love for me worth
in the last six months? I’ll give you the check now!”
