Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Chapter 526 She’ll Come Around

Peace wanted to say something to comfort Jasper. However, when she saw his somber expression, she shut her mouth. She secretly grabbed Anna’s arm and asked her what to do.

Anna frowned, thinking she’d overestimated Isabella. After everything Isabella had been through, Anna once thought she had become a mature adult.

Isabella shouldn’t have left without explaining herself, no matter what Lily had said to her or what had just happened here. She’s in her twenties, and she shouldn’t have left with total disregard for anyone else’s feelings, leaving Jasper to clean the mess for her. What the hell was she thinking?! Anna thought.

After exiting the lounge, Peace asked Karl to contact the police and ask them to locate Isabella

At that moment, Anna said, “We don’t have to go look for her. She’s an adult. She can look after herself”

“But she didn’t have her bag with her when she left! Isabella probably didn’t bring any money. What if she’s in danger?”

“She asked for it. If she wants to leave, then let her leave. She married on the spur of the moment and left without explanation. She’ll only realize she was wrong if she goes through some pain,” With a calm expression, Anna said.

Peace knew Anna was still upset with Isabella, so she gazed at her in silence.

“Get some people to keep an eye on Lily,” Anna said after a while. 525 She’ll Come Around od With his brow furrowed tightly, Karl sighed every few moments.

“Will you please stop sighing? It’s annoying!” Peace asked, her gaze fixed on him.

“| didn’t do anything! | was just sighing!” “You’re breathing too loudly!”

Everyone was used to the two of them arguing, so no one intervened. Soon, Karl’s phone rang

“Hello?” Karl nodded and said, “Okay, | got it. Please contact me as soon as you have any new information:

As soon as he hung up the phone, Karl resignedly said to everyone looking at him expectantly, “Lily is staying at the hotel next door. Jasper has sent some people to look for Isabella in this area, but none of them has seen her so far, I’ve told the airport to keep her from leaving. Well, she didn’t bring her passport, so she couldn’t leave the country.”

Just as they were about to begin another round of discussion, Matthew opened the door and entered the lounge. In the bright light, his face looked almost identical to Wayne’s. Then he said to Anna, “Mom, the kids are asleep, and Tammy is in there with them.’’

Anna nodded and said, “Thank you, honey. You have a flight back tomorrow morning, right? How’s the project going?”

“It’s going on pretty well, Mom.”

“Great. Good night, dear.”

After Matthew walked away, Peace turned around and said, “Gee! Even Matthew, a fifteen-year-old teenager is more reliable than Isabella!”

Looking at Wayne, who seemed to be deep in thought, Anna asked him, “Wayne, what do you have in mind?” 525 She’ll Come Around —

“She doesn’t have a passport, so how can she leave?” Wayne replied ina low voice.

“I’m afraid she’s out of options because we’re on an island surrounded by the sea on all sides. She wouldn’t swim across the ocean, would she?”

“What if she left the island by boat?” Crossing his arms before his chest, Wayne looked Anna in the eye and said.

While Anna and the rest of them were still wondering if it was likely that Isabella left the island by boat, a private cruise ship was about to sail from the dock in the night.

A woman ina black cloak stood on the ship’s second deck. The wind was so strong that it blew a corner of her robe up. Her eyes were sad and lonely as if she’d been through a lot in her life.

Then a man in a white robe and a beard emerged from the cabin. “Madam, do we really have to take the girl with us?” he asked her respectfully.

The woman turned to face the island and said, “We’re just giving her arride. It’s not as tricky as you think.”

“Isn’t that too dangerous? After all, she’s part of that group. So if they Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

check. “They can’t find her fast enough because she’s already thrown away her phone. I’ll give her some money and send someone to take her Wherever she wants to go after the boat docks. I’m not concerned with where she goes after that.” The woman sounded confident in herself. Her assistant appeared to want to persuade her further, but he eventually just said, “Yes.” 525 She’ll Come Around —s

The ship set sail after the assistant had left. And the woman was still on deck, staring at the island that was getting farther and farther away from her. Her dark green eyes were calm, yet it seemed like a tornado was coming soon.

Three days later, Anna and her friends returned to England. Although everyone was worried about Isabella’s safety, they could do nothing by staying on the island. So, Jasper had hired private investigators to find her in the Maldives, and Wayne had asked Ryan to find her in England.

Anna then dialed Ryan’s number. “Take your time, Ryan. She knows how to look after herself, so she will be fine. By the way, is Emily coming back this month?”

“Yes! | finally got in touch with her the day before yesterday, and she told me that the mission was completed. She would come back soon, but she has no idea when.”

” Okay. | really want to meet her. Ask her if she can have lunch with me, will you?”

“No worries. Isabella will definitely come back after she’s not angry anymore, so please don’t worry.”

“All right, thanks. Good night.” Anna sighed as she hung up the phone and sat on the couch.

Wayne walked downstairs after saying good night to the kids. “Are you still worried about Isabella?” he asked after hearing Anna’s sigh.

“Yeah,” Anna admitted it. / told everyone that Isabella was old enough

to care for herself these days. But, who am | kidding? Isabella hasn’t been through difficulties since she left the island ten years ago. Because Jasper treats Isabella like a princess, she’s likely forgotten how to survive alone. Anna thought.

“She’ll be just fine,” Stroking Anna’s hair, Wayne comforted her. 525 She’ll Come Around —

“I hope so. How is Gary?”

“He’s already dozing off. I’ll drop him off at Mom’s tomorrow morning.”

“Ill go there with you.”

“That won’t be necessary. Don’t you still have work to do at the hospital?” Wayne stroked her hair and asked.

“You heard me on the phone, didn’t you?” Slightly frowning, Anna asked as she stopped Wayne stroking her hair.

“Yes. Good night, dear!” Wayne spoke softly.

Anna pursed her lips and wrapped her arms around Wayne. “I’ll be doing less work now and won’t be as busy as | used to be. Tammy can come home and stay with us,” she said, pressing her head against his chest.

“Good,” Wayne said as he hugged her and stroked her long hair.

Before boarding the plane, Karl told Wayne that Anna was considering volunteering in a country named Fleosil. Wayne was lost in thought after hearing that news. Although he wished Anna would spend more time at home, he wouldn’t force her to do something she didn’t want todo.

After Anna had fallen asleep, Wayne took his phone out to the balcony and dialed Karl’s number, saying, “I have something else in mind for that project we discussed last time.”

“You can tell me now. I’ve basically planned everything, and | should be able to find an investor within a month.”

“No, I’d like to invest that money in something else. I’m not going to put it in the UK.”

Karl asked, surprised, “Are you serious? Can you find a better place 525 She’ll Come Around than the UK?”

Wayne paused for a moment before responding,
