She was really afraid that Anthony would go crazy and ignore her warning. That would hurt a lot. Anthony raised his face, his thin lips moistened with wine stains, and the words he said hurt her, "Don't you know that this is your only purpose for me?" Anne bit her lip and said, "Well, that's the only way you torture me, isn't it?" After speaking, her heart tightened. Was it worth it to provoke Anthony? When she thought she was causing trouble again and waiting nervously, Anthony grinned, grabbed her chin, and held onto her small mouth tightly. "Mmmm!" Anne could not breathe. When she thought she was about to die, he let go. "You wouldn't want me to use other methods to torture you." Anne's body trembled. Yes, she knew that. Anthony treated her father and Sarah rather violently. So, did she have to thank him for not treating her as such? Anne's heart froze. "Don't let me find out that you lied, or you will face the consequences." This was Anthony's threat a
"You are pretty charming to have become Anthony's toy and to get Lucas to break his personal principles for you. I can't help but feel pretty impressed by you!" Tommy lamented. Anne looked confused. What kind of charm would she have to be Anthony's toy? It was as though saying herself was charming because she got bitten by a dog?However, why did he have to bring Lucas up?Could it be that Tommy had already gotten to know everything about the incident that happened yesterday?"None of your business."Tommy said, "This is very much my business! My recent investment abroad is about mineral resources, I would like to get a partner to share the risk with me. I did not expect Lucas to be agreeable. You see, he is an education guy. How would he suddenly be interested in investing in mineral resources? I reckon it was all because of you?"Anne was stunned. It was actually because of the incident in the office. She knew that Tommy's influence was not in the Marwood Group.This man
She held her head low. "I am sorry…"Lucas fell silent for a moment and seemed willing to compromise. "Understood. Nevertheless, I am still the daddy of the three kids, aren't I?"His casual tone made Anne's lips curve upward slightly. She beamed helplessly. "Yes, the three kids love you very much."She did not say much, but after the phone call, Anne felt very tired, and her body was heavy. What was there for her to feel disappointed about? After all, ever since the day that she decided to give birth to the children, she had never thought about searching for her own happiness. After all, happiness requires sacrifices. She did not have anything of the same value to trade for it. Anne sat in the train, her head laid on the side, and dozed off as she pondered. When she woke up, she had already gone past the station where she was supposed to hop off. She could only disembark and go to the other side of the platform. She had never fallen asleep on a train before. However
Anne only got to know after that about the reason why Bianca and Anthony came to the Marwood Group office that day. It was because the company needed to get an influential celebrity to speak for the newly developed product. The recently emerged star was the well-known pianist, Bianca Faye. Anne was sitting before the desk and processing the data when the phone rang. It was an internal call from Xander. She answered, "Yes, Director.""Go to the administrative department. Mr. Marwood is looking for you.""Got it." Anne placed her phone down and pondered. Damian Marwood?Why was he looking for her?However, based on the beef that she had long planted between the two of them, it was definitely not something good, She could not refuse to go either. Nonetheless, he could not do anything to her in the office…She knocked on the door. When she saw Bianca in the office other than Damian, she had her guess. This matter would be only related to Bianca. What was it about then…
Bianca took a deep breath, but she could not catch her breath. Her body went soft and she slipped right off the chair onto the ground. Damian was shocked. He stood up. "Ms. Faye, what happened?"He went forward to check on her, only to realize that she had already gone unconscious. This was not because of him, was it? It was because of Anne! It seemed that Bianca did not have good patience, too, that she could be so easily pissed that she would faint. Not too long after Anne got back to the office, some colleague came in hastily to inform her, "I heard that the well-known pianist fainted in Mr. Marwood's office!""What? Why? Is she sick?""Not sure. She has been sent to the hospital.""Bianca just got signed as the ambassador for the Marwood Group. Now that this has happened, I hope the chief at the Archduke Group will not be mad at this."Anne sat frozen in her seat. She had never expected something like this to happen. She thought that she would be unscathed if she had
She pushed the door and went in. She could feel Anthony's cold and sharp gaze falling upon her. Her heart almost stopped beating. Kathryn examined Bianca's body condition and left after diagnosing that she was all right. "Who gave you the guts to do it?" Anthony said, his face was cold. Anne kept her gaze straight. "I did not do anything, I only rejected to be Bianca's assistant. I am from the Finance Department, and I am not familiar with the role of a personal assistant. Isn't it normal for me to decline? As for why Bianca fainted, this has nothing to do with me."Bianca heard this and immediately acted as though she was wronged. "Anne, don't you feel guilty saying all these? You said that even if Anthony cared about me, he still went to your place and said that you were pregnant with his kid and that I am nothing to him. If I ever lie about a single thing, you could get Mr. Marwood here to cross-examine. He was at the scene."Anne could not believe that Bianca would lie abou
So, before she went into the office, she made coffee and brought it to the Director's office. Xander took one look at her with surprise. "What's up?""What's up? Making coffee for the Director is part of my job," Anne said with a straight face. Xander nodded, took a sip of coffee, and said, "Tastes good, thank you."Bianca recovered fast, and as soon as she was back to work, she called Anne, asking her to go to the filming scene. The filming scene was in the Marwood office tower. The Marwood Group rented the place specifically for shooting. It was convenient for Anne to go over too. Bianca asked her to get her coffee as soon as she arrived. She also specifically said that she did not want the office coffee.Anne could only go out to get her the coffee.After more than half an hour, she finally handed the coffee to Bianca. Bianca looked at her slightly pink cheeks after running back scornfully and felt disgusted by her. She lifted her coffee cup and took a selfie while
The other crews looked over. Bianca immediately pretended to look sorry. She said gently, "I'm sorry, you asked me to exert force, and I did not expect to kick you accidentally, are you okay?"'Accidentally? You did it on purpose!'She also felt that Bianca's job was easy. It was something that they could complete within a day, but she had to drag it up to a few days. The first day, they were not even halfway in, and Bianca already said that she was tired and wanted to rest. The next morning, she asked Anne to go to her studio and retrieve her jewelry box, saying that she would need it for the shooting on that day itself.Anne took the jewelry box and headed to Bianca's residence. It was located in a high-end residential area. After going inside, she found Bianca's unit, pressed the doorbell and waited. She waited for quite a while, but there was no one opening up the door. Anne pressed the doorbell a few times more. She heard the footsteps inside. They were heavy and un
