Anna looked at Matthew in disbelief.
Shouldn‘t he be at home at this moment? Why is he here?
At this time, the waiter came over and asked Anna if she knew Matthew.
Anna picked Matthew up and explained, “This is my friend‘s child. He should be staying in this hotel. I will send him back to his room later. Don‘t worry.”
Seeing Matthew clinging to Anna, the waiter didn‘t doubt Anna and left with relief.
After the waiter left, Anna put down Matthew, squatted down, and asked, “Matthew, what are you doing here? Where is your dad?”
With his eyes wide open, Matthew kept making gestures.
Considering that he couldn‘t speak, Anna changed the way of asking questions. “Did your dad come with you?”
Matthew nodded. Anna frowned and asked, “You two live in this hotel?” Matthew nodded again. “Then why are you here alone?” Anna was confused. Hearing this, Matthew pouted with an unhappy look.
Does he feel aggrieved? Anna wondered. She couldn‘t understand his gestures and had no choice but to call Wayne.
“Sorry, the subscriber you dialed can not be connected for the moment, please redial later.”
No one answered the phone. Anna frowned.
What‘s the matter with Wayne? Why didn‘t he answer the phone? While she was thinking, she caught a glimpse of Matthew‘s reddened neck.
“Matthew, what‘s wrong with your neck?” Anna asked as she hurriedly unbuttoned Matthew‘s collar
Then she found not only Matthew‘s neck but also his chest was red. It was obvious that he was sunburned.
After Anna asked a few more questions, Matthew took her phone and typed a few words. Yesterday afternoon, Dad took me to the beach. Too much sun made me hurt.
Seeing the words, Anna wondered, They arrived here yesterday afternoon?
She was not in the mood to think too much. When she saw just saw Matthew‘s sunburned skin, she felt sorry for him and asked, “Didn‘t your dad prepare sunscreen for you?”
Hearing that, Matthew pouted as if he was about to cry, looking more pitiful.
Anna then took him to her room and decided to deal with his sunburned skin first and then try to contact Wayne. Otherwise, if not dealt with in time, his chest and neck would peel because

of sunburn.
When she was applying medicine to Matthew‘s skin, the doorbell rang,
“Matthew, wait a moment. I‘ll open the door,” Anna said.
When she saw Wayne‘s cold face through the peephole, she opened the door and asked snappishly, “Why are you here?”
“Is Matthew with you?” Wayne asked calmly. “Shouldn‘t your son be with you?” “He‘s not here?” Wayne asked again.
Anna got furious and said, “Wayne, don‘t forget you are a father. Since you took Matthew here to have fun, you should pay more attention to him and take good care of him. Do you know he is sunburned?”
Wayne was slightly surprised and said, “Let me have a look.”
“Of course you should have a look,” Anna said as she subconsciously stepped aside to let him in. However, she didn‘t notice that there was a shadow of a smile on Wayne‘s face when he entered the room.
In the room, Wayne took Matthew‘s hand and looked at his sunburned skin carefully. Then he frowned and ordered, “Don‘t go out today.”
“What don‘t you let him go out?” Anna glanced at him and said angrily. “Don‘t you know there is a thing called sunscreen in the world? Even if you don‘t know about it, you should know about sunbonnet and sun–protective clothing. I just asked Matthew. The sun was scorching hot yesterday afternoon. How could you let him play on the beach just in a pair of beach shorts without applying sunscreen? Why didn‘t you go to play on the beach with just a pair of shorts?”
Wayne looked at her and explained seriously, “I didn‘t go to play on the beach because it‘s too easy to build a castle with sand and I‘m not interested in it. Besides, I think it was too hot yesterday.”
“Huh!” Anna was speechless. “You knew it was too hot but you still let Matthew play on the beach without applying sunscreen?”
She thought that Wayne was the most careless father that she had ever seen in her life.
Seeing that Anna kept blaming Wayne, Matthew gently pulled Anna‘s sleeve and showed her what he had just written.
I‘m hungry
Anna then realized that it was past lunchtime. She frowned and said, “It‘s past lunchtime. You didn‘t even know Matthew was hungry. You are always busy with your work every day. Is your work more important than your son?”
“I was ordering food downstairs just now, but…” Wayne said and looked at Anna with mixed feelings. “But when I finished ordering, I couldn‘t find Matthew.”
Hearing this, Anna was stunned. It was not until then that she realized what she had just done.
Wayne had been downstairs all the time and the waiter would have sent Matthew back to Wayne’s side. However, she took Matthew back to her room. And as a result, Wayne couldn‘t find

Matthew
Thinking of her attitude toward Wayne just now, Anna felt embarrassed She cleared her throat and said nervously, “Well, I saw that Matthew was sunburned so I brought Matthew to my room in a hurry to deal with his sunburned skin. I didn‘t know you were downstairs. I‘m sorry”
“It‘s okay,” Wayne said casually and didn‘t care about her bad attitude just now. Then he reached out his hand to Matthew and said, “Lunch is ready Matthew, let‘s go downstairs.”
After hesitating for a while, Matthew grabbed Anna‘s sleeve and gave a hint to Wayne by blinking his eyes.
Wayne took a look at him and then looked at Anna, saying, “Matthew wants you to come with
US.”
Thinking that Scott would come back with Tammy late and she would be alone all day long. Anna didn‘t refuse. After all, compared with staying alone, she was more willing to have lunch with Matthew
During lunch, Matthew asked Anna where Tammy had gone. “She went to an uninhabited island nearby with Scott,” Anna answered him. Hearing that, Matthew looked at Wayne with an expectant look. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
Wayne took a sip of water and said lightly, “You can‘t swim. Even if you go there, you can only build a castle on the beach.”
“Matthew wants to go to the island too?” Anna asked. Matthew nodded at her.
Anna then suggested to Wayne, “Since he wants to go to the island, just take him there. I heard that the island is not far from here. It will take about only a quarter to go there by ship.”
Wayne thought for a while and lowered his head to look at Matthew.
Seeing Matthew was also looking at him with expectation in his black eyes, he nodded and said, “Okay. We‘ll go there after lunch.”
“That‘s more like it. Since you have brought him for fun, you can‘t just let him stay in the hotel all the time,” Anna said, very satisfied with Wayne‘s attitude.
Although he doesn‘t know how to take care of a child, he is willing to take others‘ advice on the parent– child relationship. It‘s not bad.
After lunch, Anna took out a tube of sunscreen from her handbag and handed it to Wayne.
“Take this with you. Apply it to his body before go to the beach and reapply it once an hour in case he gets sunburned again,” she said.
Wayne didn‘t take it. Instead, he looked at her and said seriously, “Matthew wants you to go with us.”
