Chapter 114
In the evening, while Anna was cooking in the kitchen, Tammy ran over cheerfully and asked with a smile, “Mommy, are you happy today?”
“Why do you suddenly ask such a question? What’s the matter?” Anna asked.
“I’m just asking!” Tammy said and then sniffed. “Mommy, did someone give you flowers? I smell the fragrance of flowers on your clothes.”
Upon hearing this, Anna frowned immediately.
However, Tammy didn’t notice the change in her expression and continued to ask expectantly, “Did Uncle Wayne give you roses? The fragrance smells so good!”
As soon as Tammy finished her words, Anna cut the meat hard with a loud bang and the knife was inserted into the chopping board.
“Don’t mention him to me,” Anna said.
Seeing this, Tammy shivered and felt a chill in her neck. When she raised her head, she saw Anna’s darkened face. Her heart began to beat faster and she didn’t dare to speak anymore. After a few seconds, she ran back to the bedroom.
What‘s going on? Isn‘t it said giving flowers is the best way to make two people reconcile?
The sound of Anna chopping spareribs was so loud that it still could be heard in the bedroom. After closing the door, Tammy secretly made a phone call.
“Mommy seems to be angrier than before! No, Mommy was just unhappy before. But now she is angry!”
“Let’s think of another way.”
In the dining room of Wright’s House, Old Mr. Wright looked depressed and confused after hanging up the phone.
How could this be? Generally speaking, women will be happy when they are given flowers, won‘t they? Why is Anna even angrier?
At dinner time, Anna seemed to have cooled down a little after venting her anger by chopping spareribs and cooking.
She put a piece of spareribs on Tammy’s plate and said, “Eat more. When I’m not at home during the day, you can heat the spareribs with the microwave and eat them when you are hungry.
Don’t eat too many snacks.”
“Mommy, the summer vacation is so long. I feel bored staying at home every day,” Tammy bit the spareribs and said vaguely. “May I sign up for an interest class?”
“Interest class?” Anna was a little stunned and asked, “What do you want to learn?”
“Swimming!” Tammy said cheerfully. Then she ran back to the bedroom to fetch the tablet PC and showed Anna the enrollment ad for the summer swimming class. “I’ve chosen a rather good swimming club Children will take classes from Monday to Sunday every week and parents can

swim there for free on Saturdays and Sundays. We can go to the club together and swim there on weekends.”
“But I can’t swim,” Anna frowned and said.
“It doesn’t matter. I’ve asked the teacher about the class. She said that the parents would be given free guidance. You can learn to swim together with me,” Tammy said.
“When did you ask about it?” Anna asked suspiciously.
“I called the club just now and asked about it.” With an innocent look, Tammy said, “Mommy, the swimming club provides lunch. If I sign up for the course, I will eat lunch there so that you don’t have to worry that I won’t eat well at home alone.”
Anna looked through the advertisement and murmured, “The service of the club is indeed good. Well, the course must be expensive.”
“I’ve also asked about the price of the course. We can enjoy a fifty percent discount if we sign up on the first day of opening.”
After calculating the price, Anna breathed a sigh of relief and said, “OK. I’ll take you to sign up for the course tomorrow.”
Tammy blinked and said in a sweet voice, “Thank you, Mommy. Will you go to the swimming club together with me this Saturday?”
“Yes, I will.”
The next day, after Anna sent Tammy to the swimming club and signed up for the course, she received a call from John who said that the receptionists of the hotel had a conflict with a customer
Anna then rushed to the hotel in a hurry after hanging up the phone. As soon as she arrived at the hotel, John came up to her with an anxious look “What happened?” Anna asked.
“Since we will receive the important foreign guests, we need to transfer the other guests to the nearby branch of our hotel in advance. Do you remember the drama crew that checked in before? Something happened to the supporting actress. And she refused to leave and argued with our receptionist,” John said.
Hearing this, Anna frowned. “The supporting actress? The guest called Sherry who lives in Room 1213?”
“Yes, it’s her The drama crew and our hotel have agreed that we would arrange another hotel nearby for them, be responsible for the luggage transportation, and compensate for the loss of their time But just now, Sherry said that she lost a diamond necklace And the surveillance video showed that this morning Wendy was the only one that went to her room to inform her of the time of luggage transportation.”
“She suspected that Wendy stole her necklace?” Anna asked and frowned tightly
Anna didn’t believe that Wendy would do such a thing because Wendy, who was interviewed and recruited by her had been a person of integrity and behaved well at work.
“Yes Sherry wanted to call the police but we stopped her. If the police come and the other quests know about this, the reputation of our hotel will be ruined,” John said.

Anna nodded and said, “You are right. Well;where’s Wendy now? Ask her to come to me. I’ll ask her what happened first.”
“Okay.” John said with a nod and went to look for Wendy
Anna then went straight to the monitoring room. As soon as she arrived there, she saw a familiar figure.
“What are you doing here?” She asked Ryan in surprise.
Ryan blinked at her and said, “I knew what happened in the hotel and I’m here to check the surveillance video. Anyway, I don’t have anything to do so I want to do something to help you. I’ve asked them to pull up the video you want. You can view it directly.”
Anna looked at him with admiration and praised him, “You are awesome.” Then she looked at the screen.
On the monitor screen was the scene at the door of Room 1213. The security guard played the video in fast-forwarded mode.
When Anna saw a scene of the last night on the video, she suddenly said, “Pause it please.”
The security guard quickly pressed the pause button and asked, “Is there any problem, Miss Gabriel?”
Anna raised her hand to motion him not to talk and stared at the screen. A moment later, she said in a low voice, “Rewind the video to five minutes before.”
The security guard then rewound the video immediately.
“Stop here,” Anna said. Seeing Wendy’s panicked figure on the screen, she took a deep breath and her face was darkened.
“At nine o’clock last night, Wendy went into Room 1213. At this time, there should be no one in the room,” she said.
Ryan touched his chin, adjusted his glasses, and said thoughtfully, “It’s not as simple as that.”
Suddenly, a burst of rapid footsteps came from the door. Then John came in and said breathlessly, “Miss Gabriel, Wendy is at the rooftop terrace. She wants to jump off the building!”
“What?!” Anna‘s face turned pale when she heard this. The next moment, she rushed out of the monitoring room in her stilettos.
On the rooftop terrace of Carousel Hotel, a slender figure was standing outside the rusty railing and trernbling
The strong sunlight was dazzling and the wind was warm, making people feel extremely hot
“Don’t come over. Stay away from me!” Wendy shouted emotionally “Wendy, calm down.”
By the time Anna got to the terrace, there had been many employees persuading Wendy, They all looked nervously at Wendy with their faces pale and their eyes full of fear
If Wendy had an accident, the reputation of the hotel and even the Carousel Group would be
“Let me past. Please get out of the way, everybody,” Anna panted and said as she forged through the crowds to the front.
When she saw Wendy standing outside the rail, she was almost scared out of her wits.
After calming herself down, she said, “Wendy, calm down. Come here and let’s have a talk.”
