Anna’s heart skipped a beat after hearing Karl’s words.

“What did you ask that?” She looked at him warily and asked.

Karl appeared to be at ease. He answered, “Actually, since I am taking care of Peace at home every

day, I don’t know what has happened recently. I just heard that you and Wayne broke up the other day.

He told me that you’re still married. Is it true, Anna?”

Anna exhaled a sigh of relief as she heard this. “That’s right,” she replied honestly, frowning.

“Bravo!”

Karl gave Anna a thumbs up, much to Anna’s amazement. He said, “Anna, you’re the only woman in

this world that made Wayne become your lover willingly. Respect!”

His “compliment” did not sit well with Anna. She expressed her displeasure by saying, “‘That’s so

ridiculous! To tell you the truth, I married Jasper just to get a green card. That way, Tammy and I could

live in the United States legally. I needed a green card, and Jasper needed the money. As a result, we

made a deal.”

Karl rubbed his chin before realizing what was going on. He asked, “Jasper isn’t Tammy’s father, is he?

So, what exactly do you mean by ‘a deal’? Why didn’t you tell Wayne about this, Anna?”

Anna was becoming increasingly irritated. She asked, “What are you talking about? I’ve already

explained everything to him! However, he doesn’t believe me at all. There’s no need for me to explain

anything else now that he thinks that way.”

She’d told Wayne a long time ago that she married Jasper in order to obtain a green card. Wayne, to

her astonishment, assumed she was doing it for the money. As a result, she didn’t think she could

explain herself.

Karl was taken aback. As a bystander, he didn’t think that either of them had done anything wrong.

They quarreled because neither of them wanted to concede defeat. As a result, the hostility between

them intensified.

Karl gave Anna a skeptical glance and replied, “To be honest, I’m not sure what you’re talking about.

Can you tell me more about it? I’m curious as to why your marriage is a deal.”

“Oh, it’s a long story.”

Anna then began to tell him what had happened five years ago. She took Tammy to America like a

fugitive just after she gave birth to her. Tammy was not an American because she was not born in the

country. And Anna’s travel visa expired when they spent a little time in the United States.

Anna had just two options at the time: return to England to get a new visa, or confess to her family

about her daughter. But, whatever she picked, she would have to return to her

1/3

homeland.

Anna, on the other hand, was terrified. She was scared that the man who forced her to have the babies

would track her down and take her daughter away. So, she would rather stay illegally in the United

States than return to England.

“I was a cleaning lady at Jasper’s company back then.”

“What?” Karl was taken aback. He didn’t expect Anna, as a wealthy woman, would agree to work as a

cleaning lady.

Anna didn’t explain to him why she wanted to do this job. She continued, “Jasper had just started a

business and needed two million dollars. I happened to have some cash on hand at the moment. So, I

went to his office and told him about it. He didn’t believe me when I told him he didn’t have to pay me

interest and he thought I was crazy.”

Till this day, Anna could still clearly remember that scene. She walked into Jasper’s workplace wearing

a brown uniform as soon as she knew he was short of cash.

“But, in the end, I was able to persuade him to believe me. I told him that I intended to marry him in

exchange for a green card and the opportunity to live in the U.S. with my daughter.”

It was difficult to convince Jasper, but Anna did it. And, he did do what he was supposed to do.

Karl went on to ask, “So, what did you do after you were married? You two didn’t live together?”

Anna answered, “We didn’t, of course. He later moved to another office with the money I gave him.

There was a strait between us because he lived in the North End and I in the South End. He would

come over to my place in holidays to spend time with Tammy and let her feel like she had a father.”

After knowing the truth, Karl breathed a sigh of relief in his heart for Wayne. However, he couldn’t help

but be concerned about him.

Wayne completely misunderstood Anna! I knew him well enough, so I knew that he must have said a

lot of hurtful words to Anna out of anger! I want to see how he could make it up to Anna. I can’t help

him with it, so Wayne has to do it on his own. He thought to himself.

Karl looked at Anna and said, “He didn’t understand that probably because he’s the one involved in it.

You see, although I’m a bystander, I can’t look at this thing from an objective perspective. Even if I try

my best to remain neutral, I will still be biased somehow. You’ll forgive him, won’t you? After all, he

loves you very much.”

Anna rolled her eyes at him and said, “Just say what you want to say. Karl, I’m not in the mood to play

word games with you right now.”

Karl nodded and did his best to explain, “You didn’t explain to Wayne at first that your marriage to

Jasper was a sham, and that was why he misunderstood you. In any case, you and Jasper are not

divorced now. So, you can’t pretend that nothing has happened. I can apologize for him to you, Anna.

Please, just let this go. I really hope you guys can make up.

Anna thought he had a point as she had also realized that Wayne might suspect her because she had

downplayed the fact that she was still married. However, she grew enraged when she thought that

Wayne would curse her and say so many hurtful words because of such a trifle.

Anna glared at Karl unhappily and asked, “He really meant it? He would have come here himself if he

meant it.”

Karl said as he felt that he could do nothing about it, “Oh, please don’t make it hard on him, Anna. He’s

staying in a hospital right now. Two of his ribs are broken, and he can’t leave there these days.

Otherwise, he would have come here and said it to you himself.”

Anna was taken aback and asked, “What? What happened?”

Karl pretended to look surprised and asked, “You didn’t know about that? Oh, he was hurt in a fight at a

restaurant half a month ago. He was admitted to the hospital on that day, and his wounds have not

recovered yet. Someone broke his bones, and it’s pretty serious. The doctor said he had to stay in the

hospital for a while.”

Anna’s face immediately turned pale.

When she heard Karl say that Wayne had fought with someone else, she knew what he was talking

about. She had no idea, though, that Wayne had been seriously injured that

day.

“So, he called me every day while he was in the hospital. I thought he was annoying, so I just came

here and asked you what happened between you two. As far as I can tell, nothing appears to have

happened.”

Karl is indeed an eloquent speaker who can make the actual fact sound like a fake, Anna thought.

“I don’t think he needs to mind Jasper at all since you’re not actually a couple. You and Wayne truly

love each other, so your fake husband can’t stop you two from being together.”

Anna frowned and asked, “Which hospital is he staying at?”
