Through the car window, Michelle saw the two women walking out of the Aesthetic Clinic.She immediately had an idea. She picked up her phone and took a photo of Anne.Then she called her royal paparazzi, "Help me check this person and see who she is in contact with. Let me know if there is any dirt you can find!"Hanging up the phone, Michelle cracked a sly smile.In the evening, Anne called the children, "Well, Mama just got off work… I can't come to see you... I’m a little tired, so I won't go today, okay... Be good, and listen to grandma… see you tomorrow..."Anne was still soft-hearted.The children did not understand the current dangerous situation. They were only two years old, where they would cry, looking for their mother. How could she force them to be sensible like adults?Therefore, Anne dropped by the next day.To be precise, it was after eleven o'clock in the evening. She was sure that Anthony would not look for her at this time, so she could leave and left her pho
Anne was washing her face. Next to her, the three kids were holding small towels to wash their little faces."Is it clean now?" Anne asked."Yes, Mama!" The three little kids said in unison.Cheyenne shook the milk bottles in her hand. "Come and drink milk.""Okay, Grandma!"The three little kids were not very articulate in speech yet, and the way they said grandma sounded more like 'gwamma'.Anne hurried away after having breakfast with the three little kids.She promised the kids to come back in two days.The kids started feeling sad and did not want her to leave, but Anne had no choice.As soon as Anne walked out of the room, Cheyenne chased after her, saying, "Take the key. Next time you can just open the door and come in." "Okay."The paparazzi hiding in the corner of the stairs took pictures of that scene.After completing the task in 24 hours, the paparazzi sent the photos to Michelle.On the phone, Michelle asked, "What is this?""I’ve followed her for a whole d
All the models walked toward Anne.Anne was so frightened that she wanted to flee, but the person behind her pressed her down, and she could not even move her shoulders.The models sat down beside her and started to rub their hands on her, taking off her pants…"Don't touch me! Get out!"Opposite her, Michelle picked up the phone, pointed the camera, and began to shoot."Anne, put a little bit of expression on your face, or you won't look good on camera.""Michelle, you..." Anne was about to speak when the door was pushed open.Anthony stood at the door. The light projected from the top seemed to illuminate his body and he gave off a ferocious aura.The handsome and indifferent face stared at them.Anne saw Anthony, but she was not sure if he was here to rescue her.Michelle hurriedly stood up and put away her cell phone to hide her crime. "Oh, Anthony… why are you here?"Anthony walked into the box with a calm expression on his face. "I can't be here?""Of course not!" Mic
Anne lowered her eyes. "I see, but thank you for dong that just now. If it weren't for you, the consequences would be unimaginable..."Anthony did not seem to expect her to give up so soon, and his black eyes sank slightly. "Do you think I was saving you?""Whether it was or not, it was because of you that this farce was stopped..." Anne said weakly.Anthony said coldly, "I have the final say in everything that happens to you. No one touches you without getting my permission."Anne understood what he meant.No matter what kind of torture, it should come from Anthony, otherwise it would not be fun for him."Haven't I told you that you are not allowed to interact with that b*tch? She is the nemesis of the Marwood family. Don't you understand me?" Anthony's voice was cold."She is just a normal customer who walked in. If you don't believe me, you can investigate it." Anne told the truth. Her aunt felt that she was getting old and had consultations for non-invasive facelifts."That
"I know, I'll put it away later.""Okay." Anne pretended to suddenly think of something. "Can I borrow your mobile phone to make a call? Well… I'm sorry, we are not allowed to make calls during work, but I have something to tell my family…""It's okay, there you go!" The customer kindly gave her the phone."Thank you!" Anne immediately called her mother, "Mom, can you buy a cell phone for me when you have time in the afternoon? A cheap one. I'll get it when I go there."After the conversation, she returned the phone to the customer.It was about eleven o'clock at night when Anne finished taking a shower, changed her clothes, and went out.She took the back door again.She did not notice the Rolls Loyce that had entered her area.Through the tinted car windows, Anthony's cold, black eyes stared into the distance, like a beast staring at its prey silently.His slender fingers rested on the handrail, and he tapped rhythmically as if he was plotting the demise of his target.Anne
"Okay, then let me take a look." Anthony was not willing to let it slide. His face was dark and a little angry...At this moment, the door was opened from the inside, Cheyenne awoke to the commotion, "Anne?""No!" Anne was startled and instinctively rushed toward Anthony, hugging his strong waist tightly.Anthony took a step back, his eyebrows clenched tightly, and a cold look flashed before his eyes.Cheyenne was stunned when she saw the scene outside mainly because she saw Anthony's face.So much like Chris and Charlie! No, it was exactly the same!It was clear who the man was.The man's eyes were so dark that she did not dare to look him in the face directly."Mom, go in!" Anne dared not let go of Anthony for fear that he would enter the apartment."But..." Cheyenne was worried."I'm fine, I'm fine!" Anne winked at her.Cheyenne did not say anything and closed the door. She quickly ran for the children's room and locked the door of their room.She then went back to the d
Anthony’s hands hovered for a while, and his black eyes narrowed slightly at the scar on her flat lower abdomen.Anne covered her hands in panic and explained, "I had appendicitis surgery a year ago..."The scar was not in the middle; it was slightly off center. Thankfully, her skin was not like other normal women’s.After giving birth, other people's skin would be loose and covered with stretch marks.Hers remained smooth and delicate, except for the abrupt scalpel scar. Everything else was normal.It was difficult to imagine her having given birth to children.At the moment, as Anthony was stunned, there was a bang from downstairs. The house shook, and then the alarm sounded throughout the corridor.Anthony frowned and his eyes flashed fiercely. "I actually underestimated him."On the ground, his cell phone vibrated.Anthony glanced coldly at the woman curled up on the sofa. He got up, picked up the clothes on the ground, and took out the phone to answer."Mr. Marwood, To
"It didn't matter if I could stop him."Anne felt uncomfortable and asked, "Did you have something to ask me last night?""I called you, but you didn't answer. I thought something was wrong. Fortunately, I went there. I wanted to ask you, have you gotten your passport already? You really don't need my help?""The passport is already being processed, and it will be available in two days.""I hope you get out of Anthony's control soon.""I will definitely be soon..." Anne said that to comfort herself.She wanted to escape with her children. The further away she was from Anthony, the better."When you want to leave, I'll help you book a flight ticket. Don't worry, it'll be very safe, and he won't be able to find you." "Okay, yeah."After hanging up the phone, Anne felt expectant.In the afternoon, Cheyenne hurried to Anne's residence while the children were taking a nap.The door lock had already been replaced with a combination lock. Anne had told her mother on the phone.A
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
