"Don't go there. Bring it here. The address..." Anne frowned slightly as she listened to Anthony giving the address to the person on the phone. What was that? Anne only understood when dinner was delivered from the restaurant and placed on the table in an orderly manner. Anthony wanted to eat here. Anthony was already sitting at the table when she was in a daze. Her table was too small for the dishes. "Are you waiting for an invite?" Anthony raised his dark eyes slightly. It was a very threatening tone. Anne moved her feet, walked to the table, and sat down. Seeing that Anthony started to eat, she also silently picked up the fork to eat. The atmosphere felt very weird. It was not the first time that Anthony ate at her place. He had eaten her noodles before! What was different now was that Anthony asked people to bring food to him. That was not bad. At least she did not have to cook for him. She was tired. She had expected her meetings with Anthony to decre
That's right, she was being delusional. He was very clear about his relationship with her. Checking the location of his mobile phone, Anthony had already left the community. Anne stared at the location and noticed that the location was heading toward the Archduke Group. Then she went upstairs with confidence and boldness. She hated it when she had to be constantly vigilant. As soon as they arrived at the door, the three little heads peeked out. "Mama, you didn't come along with that man we just saw?" "Is he gone?" "Will he come next time?" Anne could not keep track of Anthony's whereabouts anytime, anywhere, but she could tell the children to take precautions. "Next time you see that person, don't talk to him. Just walk away. Okay?" She was occasionally caught lying to Anthony. She was afraid the children might get caught lying to Anthony as well and get caught red-handed. On the contrary, children's words were more believable. "We know!" The kids promised. They
Anne was not only stunned but also very surprised. She realized that Joanne was here to tell her this. Why? "Did Lucas tell you to tell me this?" Anne asked. "Why would he need to..." Mrs. Newman's expression was queer, and she did not finish her sentence. Anne felt strange. "You can chat with Lucas when you have time." Mrs. Newman got into the car after finishing speaking. "Take care." Anne bowed slightly. Watching the car leave, Anne did not know what to think. What was she supposed to chat about? She was curious about how Lucas persuaded his parents. His parents were not so friendly the other day. Weird… "Anne, what did Joanne say to you?" Sarah could not wait and asked. "She didn't say anything." "Yeah right." Sarah laughed at her. "You didn't invite her over here, did you?" "Of course not. We haven't been in contact for a long time. I don't know what happened this time. She heard that I was injured, so she wanted to come to visit me, and have dinner
Anne's mouth twitched. No wonder Joanne personally came to ask her if she liked Lucas. She was probably against Lucas liking men and pounced on the chance to turn him straight. This meant Joanne would probably accept her even if she knew she already had children. She would probably choose a daughter-in-law with three children rather than a son-in-law. Lucas had never dated a girl, let alone go on a blind date. Anne always wondered if there was something wrong with his character. Apparently, there was nothing wrong with his personality. Great move from Lucas. "You know, the chairman and the chairman's wife found me and asked me to resign. Although the five million cheques thrown in front of me were very tempting, I resisted temptation. I told the principal about it, and they got even angrier, thinking that I was a scheming man and wanted more money. What am I to do?" When Anne thought of that, she felt speechless. The lengths Joanne went to… After the children were
Anne froze, feeling dazed. Lucas let go of her head, and the heat of the kiss on her forehead disappeared. "You..." The sudden kiss startled her. "I couldn't help it." Lucas looked at her with warm eyes. Anne did not say anything. "Then I'll go upstairs." "Okay." Anne turned around and went to the corridor, took a few steps, turned around, looked at the man standing under the streetlamp, and asked, "How do you plan to deal with Tommy?" "Don't worry about me. I can handle it." Lucas comforted her. Anne was worried that Lucas would cause trouble for himself. She owed him too much already. She did not want him to get into any more trouble. Especially since he was also the principal of Pinnacle Academy, he would be on the news if he messed up. Lucas was mature and stable, so she should not worry. In the afternoon, Michelle, who she had not seen for a long time, entered the lobby of the Marwood Group in high heels. She had not appeared in public for a long time,
"Let go of me!" Anne shook off her hand. Michelle simply stood in front of her. "Anne, I can recognize you even if you turn to ashes! It was most certainly you I saw that day!" Anne became angry. There were more and more people watching them, which was so embarrassing! A black Rolls Loyce arrived, and the people in the car got off. Anthony and Bianca were here. Sensing the unusual silence in the hall, Anne turned around. When she saw Anthony getting out of the car, her face turned pale, and she turned to leave. However, Michelle saw through her thoughts and grabbed her arm. "Since you said I recognized the wrong person, why would you run away? Why don't you just clarify everything for us on the spot?" Anthony and Bianca had already entered the hall, and they made everyone nervous. Bianca noticed the abnormal atmosphere and asked, "What's wrong?" At the same time, she saw a familiar figure not far away. "Isn't that Anne? She...works here?" Anthony's dark eyes stare
Anne wanted to escape. If she had not been afraid of the consequences, she would have fled far away! "If she wasn't pregnant with someone else's child, why would she be in such a hurry to abort the child? She found out she was pregnant on the first day and aborted the child the next day. How quick is that?" Michelle sighed. Anne heard that something was wrong. "Whose child am I pregnant with? Don't talk nonsense!" "We have solid evidence. You can't deny it!" Michelle said. Anne rushed forward and snatched the phone from Michelle's hand. When she saw that photo, the blood in her body boiled, and her face lost its color. Lucas kissed her forehead last night, and she was photographed and used by Michelle as 'evidence'. Anne's hands were shaking, and she was trying her best to defend herself. "I was pregnant, so I took the child away, but the child is yours..." She looked at Anthony, hoping she trusted her. "You probably underwent an abortion very quickly because you knew
The phone rang, but no one answered. Anne hoped that Anthony would turn a blind eye to her. She felt that she was suffering every single second. Obviously, Anthony would hate her more if she ran away from the problem. Anne only hoped that Anthony could be lenient with her… After three calls, Anthony did not answer her. Anne could not fathom his deep thoughts. She just felt terrible. After finally getting off work, just after walking to the elevator, Xander came over and asked her, "Have you gotten off work?" "Yes," Anne said. "You don't look very good." Anne thought to herself, 'I had been told I didn't look well quite a lot of times.' She has been anxious for an afternoon. "Thank you for your concern, I'm fine," she replied in a daze. Xander did not say anything. After entering the elevator, he pressed the buttons to the underground parking lot and said, "Take my car." Anne instinctively refused, "No need, thank you. It's very convenient for me to go home
