Most importantly, they had to stop Sarah from leaving Luton."Don't worry. I'll look for Anthony immediately. Just wait for my update." Nigel hung up after saying that.Anne stood outside, feeling anxious and helpless. Anthony was really ruthless, and he would not show any sympathy! Since Anthony was not answering Anne's calls, she sent him a text instead, [Please have mercy on my mom and let her stay in Luton. I can do anything as long as it makes you happy.]However, there was no reply. She only had this advantage over Anthony, if this could not work, what else could she do?After waiting for almost an hour, Nigel still did not call. Anne wondered what was going on, but she was getting impatient. Later, she noticed that Anthony had changed location and was now at the Archduke Group, so she immediately took a cab over.After entering the Archduke Group, Anne wanted to go directly to the elevator but was stopped by the uniformed security guard."You can't get in unless you
"Do you know what you've done?" Nigel stood up suddenly, and his expression was extremely unsightly.Bianca, his beloved daughter, actually caused him to betray his marriage, forced Sarah to leave Luton, and caused Anne to be heartbroken and scared.Nigel was in disbelief, but he had no choice! Bianca was still stunned, still unable to accept what was happening. "Dad, you've never been so angry at me. Is it because of…Sarah and Anne?"Let alone being angry at Bianca, Nigel had never even raised his voice at her, and he had always been a gentle and loving father figure.However, Nigel was furious at Bianca now. It was such a huge and ridiculous thing! "Who am I doing all this for?" Bianca was aggrieved, almost crying. "Dad, do you think I'm willing to do such a dirty thing? Look at what you made me do!"Bianca's behavior of pushing the responsibility on others and not knowing how to reflect on her actions gave Nigel a headache. As a father, he could understand her concern, but
Nevertheless, Anne understood that Nigel was just protecting his daughter, and there was nothing wrong with that. Yet, what about Sarah? Did she deserve this? Then again, Dorothy and Bianca were his rightful family…Anne noticed the movement of Anthony's location on her phone. Then, she immediately got up in a panic, ran out of the coffee shop, and ran toward the Archduke Group.As soon as she arrived at the door, she saw Anthony about to get into his car in the distance. Anne shouted his name and ran forward. However, she was stopped by Anthony's bodyguards before she could even get close, keeping the distance between them. Anthony's aura was imposing, and he looked at Anne with his sharp, obsidian eyes indifferently.Anne calmed herself down and steadied her breathing. "Can I talk to you for a few minutes? My mom…can't you let her go?""No," Anthony answered straightforwardly. Anne was stunned. "Why? It's a misunderstanding. You can check with the restaurant. It really
"Anne, what's wrong? Did you get the ticket?" Sarah urged."Mom, I can't buy your ticket…your identification card is invalid," Anne said helplessly. "Huh…is Anthony only going to be satisfied if we're dead? Is he out of his mind?" Sarah was exasperated. "Mom, just find a place to settle down first. I'm afraid you won't be able to come here for the time being." Anne had looked for Anthony and met him, but she could not do anything. Perhaps it would be more effective if she waited for a few more days and begged Anthony again when he calmed down… "I can't go to Luton anymore? I can't go there, and you can't leave! Are we only going to contact each other by phone? I don't want that!""Even if you don't want to, you have no choice. Anthony's unwilling to let it go.""Did you look for him?""Yes."Sarah was annoyed. Nothing was working her way, and she almost lost her temper. However, she knew being angry would not solve the problems, so she could only compromise. After all, sh
Anne got home, took a shower, and changed her clothes. Then, she went to the balcony and found that Tommy had left. Later, Anne went to the children's school, which she rarely would. To be exact, she hardly ever did, which was terrible. No matter how busy the parents were, they would still go to their children's school. If she did not show up from time to time, it would be unfair to the three little ones.After all, they never had a father… Anne entered the school gate and headed to nursery school. From a distance, she saw a lot of little kids playing on the playground, interacting with their seniors who were taking physical education classes.From afar, it was like Anne had entered a paradise of cuteness. "Charlie, Chris, Chloe…" Anne walked over. The three little kids playing around with their other friends were stunned when they saw their Mama, and they ran over happily, shouting, "Mama!""Mama!""Mama, you're here!" They threw themselves one after another into Ann
"...Premarital pregnancies." Anne lowered her gaze. She knew that in the eyes of the elders, her behavior was morally corrupt, and she was not a good influence. Joanne was really shocked. She could not help but wonder if Lucas was out of his mind for liking a girl like Anne. No family would accept her! Her initial good impression of Anne hit rock bottom."You surely are something else! And your aunt…no…your mom, Sarah! I must be blind to know you both!" Joanne had misjudged their characters, and she warned, "Don't get close to my son anymore. Do you understand?""Don't worry. I was never Mr. Newman's girlfriend. In fact, he used me as a shield because he didn't want to go on blind dates anymore," Anne explained, "I still believe that mutual feelings are important in a relationship to ensure a long-lasting marriage." Joanne did not know what Anne was implying, and she thought Anne had no right to speak to her that way. The point was Lucas had personally told her that he had a
"You're already 30 years old. Could it be that you still have hopes for Anne?" Joanne asked suspiciously. Lucas adjusted his posture and said, "This is the last time.""What?""The blind date. This is the last time. If it doesn't work out, you need to stop arranging blind dates for me.""What if you deliberately say you don't like the girl? Of all the blind dates I've arranged for you, all of them said they liked you. The problem lies with you.""It's not that you don't know the reason," Lucas replied, "I'm not doing it on purpose." Joanne was at a loss for words and did not seem to be in a good mood."Since you can like Anne, I'm sure you can like other women too!" Joanne would never accept a male 'daughter-in-law'. However, the thought of Anne not only unable to bear children, but also being the mother of three children made her even more panicked. "I've tried for so many years, but Anne is the only one. I know you don't like her, and you're trying your best to forget her!
Lucas said nothing but just looked at her. Anne felt awkward from being stared at by Lucas. Then, she took a sip of her coffee and pursed her lips."How have you been?" Lucas asked, suppressing his emotions."As usual…I go to work every day, spend time with the kids…""You know what I'm saying.""He's already engaged to Bianca, so it's no different than before." Anne appeared tense.Lucas's gaze became cold."It's almost time. I'll take the little ones back first," Anne said."Sure." Lucas did not stop her.Anne got up and left.Lucas put down his coffee and glanced out the window.Teachers and students were passing by, but none of the school scenery caught his attention… On the way home with her children, Anne received a call. When she saw that it was Michelle, she quickly muted her phone. It was only after Anne got home and spent some time with the triplets that she took the time to call Michelle back."Are you trying to burn the bridges after all that?" Michelle said
