After she said that, Charlie, who just finished eating, ran toward Anne excitingly. "Mama, Mama, let me show you the self-defense skills that I've practiced!"Chris held his laptop. "I now know ... how to buy stocks!"Chloe came over as well. "Mama! Draw with me!""Okay..." Anne was a little underwhelmed by what she had just said.If Anthony was not around and she was left to face the triplets and problems, could she solve them herself?She kept wanting to keep her distance from Anthony, which made her forget the fact that she had lost her sight...She was defeated without Anthony having to say anything. "Papa hasn't eaten yet! Papa, go and eat breakfast!" Chloe was like her Papa's little lover when she noticed he did not eat his breakfast. Her big cute eyes were then filled with surprise. "What's wrong with Papa's mouth?""He was bitten!" Charlie pointed his finger to the sky as if he had discovered something incredible. "Who bit Papa?" Chris asked.Anthony glanced at Anne
She was not sure anymore.Anne reassured herself again by thinking that perhaps this was the after-effects of recovering her memory. She was just overthinking. She touched the ring on her ring finger and lingered on it for a few seconds before removing it...All her subtle emotions, annoyance, cluelessness, and uneasiness, as she took the ring off, were all noticed by Anthony, who was silently sitting on the sofa. Yes, he had not left the room this whole time.When Anne called out to him, he kept his aura down to keep her from noticing.What was she thinking about? Was she thinking of getting a divorce?It was useless for her to have such thoughts, as they could not divorce.Just as Anne turned over to sit up and get out of bed, she heard the sound of papers turning over. Her body froze."Are you going to the bathroom?""... Why were you so quiet?" Anne was so angry when she realized what was happening and shrugged off his touch."Why are you angry? Hmm?"Why? Anne turned
"I found her," Anthony said. "Really? That's great, I'm still worried," Bianca replied. She paused for a moment before continuing, "Anthony, can I go and see Anne? Just to see if she's okay, nothing else. I want to apologize to her for what happened last time..." Anthony turned to the side, his eyes seeming to pass through the door of the ward and fall on Anne's body. "Come," he said. "Okay, I'll be right there," Bianca said, happy at the prospect of seeing Anne. After hanging up the phone, Bianca began to get dressed. She did not expect Anthony to agree to her request, and it seemed that he did not take Anne's feelings seriously. "We wait for Bianca to come over," Anthony said after sitting down. Anne's hand on her side twitched convulsively, trying to ignore the discomfort in her heart. "What is she here for?" she asked. "She just came to see you," Anthony replied. "Is it necessary?" Anne asked. "It won't be long," Anthony said, watching her expression. Anne b
"It doesn't end there," she said firmly. "You just wait, Anne. I don't think you can be so lucky again and again," said Bianca. "Are you in a better mood now?" Anthony asked. "What?" Anne was surprised by his question. "Because of her apology? Do I need it? Anthony, you don't have to invite her here to insult me!" Anthony's face turned cold, and he stood up, storming out of the room. The door slammed shut behind him. Anne was clearly in a bad mood. Even though Anne was married to Anthony, he apparently had other ideas about Bianca. Even if she saw through Bianca's tricks, the 'Bianca' on the phone, the coincidence that they went to Athetin together, and Anthony answering Bianca's call in the middle of the night... they could not just cut off their relationship just because of Anne's presence, could they? The fact was that Anthony liked Bianca, and Anne was just the object of his control and torture. After three days in the hospital for an intravenous drip, she went to
When she saw who was beside the bed, she stopped getting up and pretended to be dead. Anne was in a deep sleep and did not notice anything unusual. The moonlight shining on her face made her look peaceful and soft, without a trace of her rebelliousness during the day. Anthony stood by the bed, looking down at her with his black eyes, which were deeper than the night. The tight lines on his face showed his displeasure. She looked cute when she had amnesia instead of always disobeying him as she did now. Anne woke up, rolled over, and asked, "What time is it?" The nurse walked over and said, "Mrs. Marwood, you're awake. It's only seven o'clock." As soon as Anne heard the time, she knew that her eyes were still bad, and she could not help feeling disappointed. "Help me get my white cane," Anne said as she stood up. The nurse helped her get her cane, and Anne walked forward, using the white cane to guide her. The nurse stood beside her in case she bumped into something. If sh
"You are Mrs. Marwood now. You can live in the apartment if you want," Anthony reminded her without hesitation. The apartment where Julie lived... If that was the case, Anne might as well stay in the Royal Mansion. She could not resist Anthony when she was healthy, let alone now that she was disabled. Anne did not say anything else, and she was picked up by Anthony and taken to the Royal Mansion. Anne sat in the car, facing the window, unable to see anything, but she looked no different from a normal person. "How did you fall into the river?" Anthony asked. Anne paused when she heard Anthony's question and thought back. "It seems like... I misstepped." "Are you sure?" Anne was not sure, but she could not think of anything else besides that, so she said, "Yes, I'm sure." After answering, she fell silent. She felt like that memory was missing. Could it be that she was so scared when she fell that she could not remember, and then her brain injury afterward made her forget?
Just because Anne was able to leave the hospital did not mean her body was completely healed. She still needed to take care of herself. After sitting in the hall for a while, Anthony carried her back to her room. Anne leaned against the headboard and touched the pillow next to her, knowing that this was the master bedroom. This was the room where she and Anthony shared a bed during her amnesia. "You can put the white cane on the side. I sometimes want to get up and walk around," Anne said. "Alright," Anthony said. The triplets ran into the room, surrounding Mama on the bed. Anthony simply gave them a menacing reminder, "It's okay to get on the bed, but don't step on Mama." "We know that!" Charlie furiously exclaimed, believing the reminder was unnecessary as he already knew it! "Mama, can I sing a song for you?" Chloe asked, sweetly leaning on Mama's hand. "Sis sings very well!" Charlie said, clearly impressed. "Yeah!" Chris agreed. Chloe stood next to Mama, cutely
"Forget it, don't look for it," Anne said, trying to change the subject. However, Mia persisted. "Ma'am, there is something that I don't know if I should tell you. I heard it from the other maids. I was very angry at the time and told them off..." "What is it?" Anne asked, her curiosity piqued. "They said... that the marriage certificate between Mrs. Marwood and Mr. Marwood is fake and that Mr. Marwood used it to deceive you. How could the marriage certificate be fake?" Mia said in a puzzled tone. She looked at Anne, her expression deep in thought. Anne's mind suddenly became clear. That was why Anthony would get the marriage certificate with her. His hatred for her and her mother was deep-rooted, and he married her in the blink of an eye. It turned out that the marriage certificate was fake, only this made sense…Anne's expression sank. Her whole body exuded weakness and sorrow. Except for the sourness in her heart and mouth that almost drowned her, the rest was anger.
At first, Corentin was stunned. Then, he said, "Who have I killed? Ash, you've misunderstood. I've changed now. It's true. Hurry up and come down. The ravioli is getting cold.""Don't come over! I'll jump if you get any closer!" Ashlynn shouted hysterically."Alright, alright. I won't go over!" Corentin did not dare to take another step further. "Ash, I'm telling the truth. I didn't kill anybody. Come down, and I'll explain to you. It's all a misunderstanding.""Actually, I've felt it was strange since the beginning. It's just that Anne's reassurance dispelled my suspicion about you." Tears filled Ashlynn's eyes, but they did not stream down her face. She looked at Corentin and said, "But I know everything now. I don't have evidence, but you are Salvatore Yeager. At first, I thought you would change for the sake of the child. In the end… In the end, you didn't even spare the child's grandparents. Salvatore, are you even human? Why would a monster like you exist?""Ash, come down, a
After Ashlynn was discharged from the hospital, she called Anne when she was alone in the room."Anne, are you alright? I heard you were taken by Tommy and were later saved by Anthony.""Mmhmm. I'm fine. I've gotten home safely.""That's wonderful," said Ashlynn.Anne could tell that Ashlynn was not feeling alright, so she asked, "What's the matter? Are you not in a good mood?""I've found out about my parent's passing," said Ashlynn.Anne was stunned. She found out? "I'm sorry, Ashlynn. I've kept it hidden from you.""It's fine. I know you're being considerate to me and the child." Ashlynn took a pause before asking again, "Was Tommy killed by you guys?""No. He fled the cruise ship back then. When we found him, he was already killed by somebody. His body was pulled up from the sea.""Corentin was there as well, wasn't he?""That's right. Did he tell you that?"Ashlynn's eyes looked emotionless. "Have you guys ever suspected Corentin?"Anne immediately got so nervous tha
Corentin hugged Ashlynn. "I heard that Tommy's dead, so your parents' murders have been avenged. Now, they can only rest in peace. Calm down."Ashlynn collapsed in his arms as she cried. Then, she started to feel waves of throbbing pain in her belly, and her face turned pale.Corentin noticed something was not right with her, so he hurriedly roared at the driver, "Go to the hospital now!""Hurry up!" Jeremy urged. He held Ashlynn's hand and realized that it was freezing. "Ashlynn, you have to be alright. You still have me! Hang in there, Ashlynn!"Ashlynn looked at him with tears in her eyes. She was extremely saddened. She could not understand why things would end up like that. Did she not deserve to have parents?When Ashlynn woke up, she was already at the hospital.She subconsciously touched her belly, but Corentin grabbed her hand. "You're showing signs of miscarriage, so you need to recuperate."Ashlynn scanned around the room and asked, "Where's Jeremy?""He's outside. H
"I know…" Jeremy looked up and saw Ashlynn standing at the entrance. He was so shocked, and he immediately stood up. "Why…are you here?"Ashlynn stood there dazed. She looked at Jeremy, then the person who spoke earlier. "What do you guys mean when you talk about my parents' soul resting in peace?""Nothing. We were talking about someone else."Ashlynn could tell from their faces that they were clearly panicking. She was not deaf. She heard what they said clearly.Her face turned pale, and she immediately searched for her phone. She did not have it on her, so she rushed to the car."Ashlynn!" Jeremy ran after her and stopped her. "What are you doing?""I'm going to call Mom and Dad.""They are traveling. Don't disturb them."Ashlynn looked at him. "Jeremy, tell me honestly, why aren't Mom and Dad coming home? Don't lie! I have always felt it was strange. Why haven't they come home when I'm already so far along? Something is wrong, isn't it? Did something…really happen to them?"
Corentin came forward and asked, "Anne, are you alright?"Anne nodded."You don't look too well. What happened?""Tommy's dead," said Anthony."Have you found the cure?" asked Corentin.Anne shook her head."Unfortunately, the infected people would have to endure it a little longer."Anne suddenly thought of something, and she immediately pushed Anthony away. "Don't touch me."Only then, Corentin noticed a small patch of ulcer below Anne's cheek. "Anne, did Tommy drug you?"Anthony frowned. "I don't mind.""I do. Both of us would not be able to have contact with the children, and they will worry." Anne rejected his touch.Anthony had been touching her the whole time. It was unclear if he had been infected. Anne was very worried."It wouldn't make a difference now. If anything, I would have already been infected just now," said Anthony.Anne still refused to listen. "That's not necessary. Just don't touch me. We still don't know where the cure is, and Tommy died so suddenly
Just as Tommy finished his sentence, he heard a commotion behind him.Ivan was fighting with the assassin, and every strike he delivered was fatal. If Ivan were not skilled in combat, the professional assassin could have killed him in just a few moves.Tommy realized something was up, so he immediately wanted to grab Anne.While Anne retreated, she was pulled into a person's arms."Let me go!" She thought it was a man she did not know, so she hated to be touched like that."Anne."Anne was stunned. She looked up and felt happy to see a familiar face. "Anthony?""It's me."Tommy was infuriated as he watched the two of them looking lovingly at each other, Tommy became infuriated."As expected, Anne, you did leave a trace for Anthony." Tommy's expression darkened."You're the one who took me too lightly," said Anne.It was because she had always wanted to run away from Anthony in the past that he had the wrong impression, was it not? "So what? You want to kill me? With just t
Anne was drugged at that moment, and there were surveillance cameras all over the cruise ship. She saw a surveillance camera over her head when she was returning to the room. Therefore, it was impossible for her to sneak around in the middle of the night if she wanted to.Tommy had long been guarding against her.However, Anne still left Anthony some clues before she left him. She believed Anthony would find her very soon, but she never expected that he would do it so quickly.At daybreak, she seemed to have heard the rumbling of a helicopter above her. Then, the door swung open. Before Anne could make sense of the situation, she was picked up. "How did you get the message out?" Tommy said. He even searched Anne's body after that."Ah! Are you crazy? I don't have a phone!""Don't think Anthony can take you away just because he's here. If I'm going to hell, I'm dragging you along with me! Let's go!""You…" Anne had no strength, so she was dragged out of the room by him.He thre
Anne ignored him.If she were not afraid that Tommy would pull some tricks behind her back, she would have slept with her back facing him."Do you remember running to my home and sleeping on my bed when Anthony bullied you as a child?"I don't.""I know you do. I truly wanted to help you back then," said Tommy.Anne knew he was speaking the truth, so she did not refute him. She stared at the ceiling and said, "I think the past Tommy died a long time ago."Tommy's expression was mixed, and he asked, "Are we not able to go back anymore?""Instead of asking me this now, you should've gone to hell after you killed the people I cared about. No matter how unhappy your childhood was, you can't hurt others for your own pleasure." At that moment, Anne did not pity Tommy at all."Look at you on your high horse. Has Anthony not killed anybody before? Has Corentin not killed anybody before? Why did you forgive them for killing people but not me? Just because the victims were your friends?
Seeing that she did not move at all, Tommy said, "It won't be good for you if you don't eat."Anne thought that he made sense. If she did not eat, she would go hungry and would have no strength later. How could she fight with Tommy then? It was because she refused to eat and only drank water while hiding in her room that Tommy drugged her.After a while, she seemed to have figured it out.She picked up the fork and started eating the fish.Tommy saw her eating and asked, "How was it?""Could it be that you're the one who made it?" Anne looked up and shot a glance at him lazily."That's correct. I am the one who made it."Anne thought, 'Is this something worthy to be praised?'"It must be tough for you to do such a thing on top of everything else.""If you're worried that it's tough for me, why don't you make it with me?""I don't know how to cook.""How great. You just have to enjoy being served." Tommy clicked his tongue, but he was looking at Anne with a doting gaze.Anne
