"You can't enter.""I simply want to enter today. Kill me then!"The bodyguards dutifully stood in front of her door and refused to let her enter."Can't you hear what I said? Are you guys deaf? Do you believe that I'll call the police!" Sarah threatened them, but they remained motionless. She knew that this trick would not work, so she used her might and main to rush forward. "Let me in! Let me go in!"Anne, who was leaning against the headboard and was about to doze off, was woken up by the commotion outside. Was that not her mother's voice?Why would her mother be here?Anne wanted to move, but she could not even do any big movements, let alone get out of bed.The argument outside got more and more aggressive. Without a choice, Anne was afraid that Sarah would get hurt so she grabbed the cup on the table and smashed it on the ground as hard as she could.That loud smash stunned Sarah and the bodyguards outside.Sarah took the chance and ran into the ward.As soon as she en
"Yes, she's here.""As expected…I'm going over now.""Oh." Anne hung up the call and looked at Sarah, who was looking back at her while packing up. "Mom, I still can't leave now.""You must leave! Anthony will kill you sooner or later!""Actually, the incident this time is not caused by him," said Anne.Sarah put the clothes in her hands down and rushed to the bed. "If he hadn't gotten me to this godforsaken place, would I have met with a car accident? If I hadn't been in a car accident, would you need to take the helicopter to come and see me? If you didn't need to board the helicopter, would this happen to you? Aren't all these caused by him?"Anne was at a loss for words.Anthony was indeed the culprit.If it were not for him, she and her mother would not have ended up in this current state.However, all of the mishaps in their lives have always been caused by Anthony. They absolutely did not know how to deal with him at all.If they were to resist him at the moment, they
Without even looking at the 'outsider's' expression, Anne already knew how terrifyingly suffocating it was.To Anthony, she was his private property, so how could he tolerate someone else defining him as an outsider?However, as she saw her mother working so hard, she did not know if she should also go all out and risk it all.She truly was afraid that Anthony would do something inhumane though…As soon as Nigel entered the ward, he was stunned by the stand-off situation that could not be easily resolved. When he saw the knife in Sarah's hand, he immediately went up to her and snatched the knife away. "Sarah, what are you doing? Put the knife down!"He then threw the knife that he snatched away from her into the trash can.Sarah burst out crying with a grievance, "Am I wrong? I just wanted to take Anne away…"Nigel looked at Anne, whose face was pale, and asked with concern, "Anne, how are you?""I'm fine…"Nigel looked at Anthony with a serious expression. "Anthony, they are
The attending doctor was Dr. Brown. After Dr. Brown knew who he was, she expressed her thoughts in a very relaxed tone and did not say how terrible the condition was. After all, although Anne was seriously injured, she could fully recover! It was not easy being a parent. Anthony took a helicopter and returned directly to the Archduke Group. Entering the office, he took off his jacket and threw it on the sofa. He went to the desk, saw the stack of documents, and remembered something. He picked it up and looked at it. Anne was no different whether she was abroad or in Luton. As for the children in Pinnacle Academy, there was nothing special about them. Looking at the three photos attached at the back, Anthony said, "They look better with masks on." He was probably overthinking. Anne dare not hide anything from him. Anthony turned around, threw the paper into the shredder, shredded them, and walked away. After going out for two days, Bianca did not call him. Sh
How could Anne be so tenacious and keep on coming back to haunt her? "Can I go see Anne? I've been worrying about her for so long, and I want to see her with my own eyes." "Don't worry. She will be back in a few days." Bianca was thinking of the more serious consequences that would happen to her. After all, she did not know that Anne had three children before! Dorothy often told Bianca that Nigel could remarry her because of Bianca. So, if one day Anne told Anthony the truth, would Anthony marry Anne too? She did not just give birth to one, but to three kids! Bianca was so frightened that she trembled all over, unable to hold a knife and fork in her hands, and her cutlery fell to the ground all of a sudden. The waiter hurried over to help pick it up. "I'll get another one for you." "You don't look good. Are you not feeling well?" Anthony asked. "Maybe it's because I'm too tired from work, but it's fine. I'll be fine when I'm full." Bianca had a decent smile on her
Dad wanted to get a divorce, but he could not, so it was very difficult for him. "Mom, what do you think?" she asked. "What do I think? Since when have my thoughts mattered? You are his daughter. Isn't it his duty to take care of you here? His love has been missing from your life for twenty years," Sarah said indifferently. "Actually, I don't care that much. I think it's enough for me to know who my father is." "You think this way, but not everyone thinks the same way. Dorothy knows that her husband has another daughter, Bianca, who inherited her meanness, and they hate you! They do everything they want because Anthony supports them!" Anne was silent. That was quite correct. Her mother did not know how the accident happened. If she did, she would be pissed. Yes, as long as they were alive, Dorothy and Bianca would try to get rid of them. However, Anne would not let them get their wish. "Don't you want them to divorce?" Sarah's eyes flashed. "This is not my decisi
"Hello, who is it?" "Auntie, I'm Anne." "What? Miss Vallois? Miss Vallois, is it really you?" the nanny said in shock. Anne felt strange at the exaggerated tone in the nanny's voice. Just as she was about to ask, she heard the excited voices of the three little kids. "Mama!" "Are you okay?" "Let me listen to Mama's voice!" The nanny turned on the speaker, and Anne's voice came. "It's Mama, miss me?" "We did!" the three little kids said in unison. "I couldn't sleep. I was thinking about Mama the whole night!" "Mama, a bad woman said your plane fell into the sea! Is that real?" Chris asked. The other two pricked up their ears to listen. Anne hurriedly explained, "No, if it was, how could I still call you?" "Then I want to video call Mama!" Chloe said. "Ah, about that..." Anne did not expect them to want a video call. "Mama isn't free now. There will be people spot-checking us today, and I will have to work overtime if I get caught." "Mama, it's almost six
She nearly lost the chance to meet her kids again. "It's really Mama!" Charlie was excited, his big eyes flickering. "Well, that bad woman lied to me!" Chloe sniffed. "That bad woman was talking nonsense!" Chris said. "Next time, I will use my sword to hack her to death!" Chris was feeling particularly violent, and he waved his hands as he said that. Anne burst out laughing, completely forgetting about her hurt rib, causing her to double over, holding her stomach to hold back her laughter. The wound there was not yet healed, and it hurt when she laughed. "Mama, when are you coming back? I miss you so much! I can't hug Mama in a video call." Chloe pouted her little mouth and stuck it to the screen. Anne saw that her little mouth took up the entire screen, so she leaned over and kissed back. "Mama will go back in a few days. It won't take too long," Anne said softly. "Do we have to wait again? Can Mama stop working in the future? I can earn enough money for Mama!" Cha
