"Alas... " Tim leaned against the tree trunk and sighed with exasperation. Anne tugged Justin with puzzlement and asked, "What's wrong with him?" "Ha!" Justin shook his head and said in a loud voice, "Some people put in so much effort and still end up with nothing but embarrassment. How can they not be depressed?" "Oi!" Tim smacked his lips with a frown. He was already in a bad mood, so he couldn't take anymore of Justin's sarcasm. "Justin, are you not capable of not making fun of me?" Justin didn't care. He stood up and walked towards Tim. "I'm asking you what's with all the blues? Where's your spirit of brotherly love? Didn't you vow to save your brother? What, you regret it now?" Tim frowned. "I don't regret a d*mn thing! Given the chance, I'd make the same choice all over!" When he saw the anxiety on Tim's face, Justin raised his eyebrows and nodded in approval. "You are tough I'll give you that," he said as he took something out of h
When they returned to City Phoenix, Justin sent Anne back to the Commander Mansion. After passing through the front courtyard and entering the door, the two mothers hurriedly stopped her. "Don't go this way, enter from the side... We're changing the wallpaper here, don't come in and mess things up!" Anne was stunned for a moment and stopped in her tracks. The two mothers were busy preparing for her wedding, as if she was messing up things for them. Anne pursed her lips and couldn't exactly complain about it. When she was about to turn around and walk in from the side, she heard her mother behind her calling her to stop. "Go to the flower hall first, see who's here!" Savannah's tone was mysteriously joyful. Anne nodded with puzzlement. "Oh...right!" When she got to the flower hall, the designer was doing final inspections on the style of the invitations. However, Anne was not paying attention to the invitations. Her attention was focused on the person
In the Commander's Mansion, everyone was making preparations for the wedding. However, one day, Henry returned very late as everyone was preparing tensely. His eldest son, Maxwell, went to the military headquarters to ask about it, but no one knew where his father was going. As for Henry, there should always be someone following him wherever he went. However, he didn't bring anyone with him this time, and no one knew where he went, which was really a bit strange. Everyone was looking at Maxwell and Simon. Among the whole family, only the two of them were people persons like Henry. Maxwell and Simon looked at each other, and both had a bad feeling. "Let's find out more details." "Actually, I didn't know much about it. Commander didn't give me any special orders this afternoon. He didn't ask me to go with him either. When I went to his office, he wasn't there. So I thought he had already left." Jeana was extremely worried. She held Savannah's han
"What the hell is going on?" Knitting her beautiful eyebrows tightly, Anne didn't see the president or Henry now. All that she knew for now was that Tim betrayed Justin and her. But she just couldn't believe that simple-minded boy, Tim, would betray them. Filled with doubts, Anne looked forward to meeting Henry. However, she was left here for a long time. The servants only came again at lunchtime and took away the food sent to her in the morning after delivering her the lunch. They also sent some tea to Anne during the period. "Excuse me. How long do I have to wait here?" Anne couldn't help but stop a servant. However, the servant only shook his head with a smile, "I'm sorry, Miss Violet. I don't know much about it. I'm just doing my job." "..." Anne had no choice but to give up. The longer she waited, the more anxious she became. All types of suspicions came to her, and she just couldn't wait any longer in patience. She waited until even
"Anne." As soon as Anne arrived at the Commander's Mansion, Justin rushed towards her. When he heard that something happened to the Commander's family, he rushed over in a hurry. He didn't expect to wait for such a long time. When he saw Anne at this moment, he was so worried that he frowned. He sized up Anne as if he was afraid that she would get hurt. "..." Anne burst out laughing and pushed him. "What are you doing?" "Don't move. Let me have a look at you." Justin frowned, refusing to let go of her. "You've been there for so long. Did they give you a hard time?" "Haha." Anne was amused by his exaggerated action. She couldn't help laughing, "What are you talking about? I'm good. Okay?" "Don't hide it from me. I've known it." Justin said it in a reproachful and apologetic tone with a frown. Anne looked up at the elders who nodded lightly. How could they not be anxious when even Henry had come back? Justin was even more anxious. If Henry hadn't
When Tim just sat in the car, he suddenly remembered what had happened. He suddenly sat up straight and muttered, "It's not right! What does it mean that the whole of Canada is behind her? Is she..." Didn't it mean that she had admitted her identity in front of him? If she were not Anne Handerson, how could she have the courage and guts to say such words to him? However, even if they were well aware of her identity, they had never spoken it out! Tim's intuition told him that something must have happened so that Anne suddenly said something like this and her attitude towards him was different from before. Recalling her aggressive manner just now, Tim wondered if he had offended her. "Ah!" Tim irritably rubbed his hair and had no idea about it. He decided to go and ask Anne about it. His men drove the car out. Through the car window, he saw Justin running out of the gas station store with something in his hand. Anne stood by the car door and looked up
After breakfast, the sun had completely risen. It was rare for them to have such leisure time. Justin took Anne and they walked out of the courtyard. At the entrance of the alley, it gradually became lively. Although this was a small town, because it was close to City Phoenix and had a long history, it had always attracted a lot of tourists with its cultural-historical sites. After walking for a while, they arrived at the bustling street. Not far ahead, many people had gathered. Anne stood on tiptoe and pointed to the front, saying curiously, "What are they doing? Why are there so many people?" Justin looked down at Anne. Her clean and white face was full of doubts, which made her look very childish and cute. He chuckled and patted her head. "Do you want to know? Let's go and have a look!" As he spoke, he held her hand and quickened his pace. With Justin's escort, Anne managed to get to the front row. When she saw it, she found that it was a traditio
Life in the small town was extremely slow, which was undoubtedly a novel thing for Anne. In the streets and lanes, they held each other and strolled, time seeming to go by slowly. On both sides of the street, narrow canals passed through the city, on which boat-women were boating to attract tourists. Anne had taken a cruise, but she was eager to try such a simple and novel boat. "Justin." Anne pulled Justin's sleeve slightly. "Hmm?" Justin lowered his head and looked at Anne. When he saw her eyes full of expectation, he knew what she was thinking before she said anything. "Do you want to try? I'll buy tickets." "Yes!" On the shore, Anne extended her hand to Justin, but Justin ignored her and directly carried her onto the boat. The boat-woman looked at them with a smile, and Anne blushed and blamed him in a soft voice. "What are you doing! How embarrassing!" "It doesn't matter. I'm thick-skinned." Justin raised his eyebrows, as if it was a
