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
"Nanny didn't have the time to tell you. Bianca somehow went to the door and met the children. That explains everything," Lucas said. Anne was stunned, her mind was in chaos, and she felt dizzy. "Don't worry, Bianca wouldn't dare to tell Anthony. After all, she is worried that the existence of triplets would threaten her status." Lucas knew Anne's current mood and comforted her. Anne took a breath and put her hand on her forehead, feeling cold sweat there. "However, knowing Bianca, she will definitely not stay still. Will she hurt the children? I have to go back to Luton!" Anne was anxious. "Anne, you should take care of your body first. The children are in my residence and go to school with me. Bianca will not have the chance to harm the children. Don't worry." Anne's heart returned. "Principal, thank you, I'm sorry... I treat you badly, and yet you still help me. I feel so guilty..." "I know you were threatened. On the day the two families ate, you were taken away by An
It was not that she liked who better. It was just because her children were only two-year-olds, so pure and so innocent. How could she not worry about them? What's more, the situation was crucial, and she dared not to be far away from them. If some inevitable problems happened, she could at least be there and comfort her children. During Anne's stay in the hospital, Bianca found out that the kids had moved to live with Lucas. It was clear that Anne and Lucas were on the same side. No wonder the children's privacy was well protected. There was no way that the two of them had no other business going on. In such a situation, she was unable to reach the kids. The plan she had in mind was to kidnap the kids and abandon them somewhere no one could find. Anne would surely go crazy as she tried to find them. It seemed like this was not a workable plan. It was far more than possible to cooperate with Lucas. That man was truly seduced by Anne. How could he fall in love with
"An orphanage?" Moona knew what kind of place that was, but no matter what, she still had feelings for the children. She could not bear to throw the cute kids into an orphanage where no one was in charge and did not care if they lived or died. When Bianca saw her hesitation, she lost her patience. "You don't want to, do you? Then I'll tell Lucas now!" she said, making a gesture to take out her mobile phone to make a call. "Yes! I am willing to!" Moona was so frightened that she nodded her head repeatedly. A triumphant smile appeared on Bianca's face as she stood up. "Then I'll wait for your good news." The door closed with a thump. Moona fell into a deep state of struggle. Her mobile phone rang, startling her. Seeing that the caller was Anne, she was even more reluctant to answer it. "Strange, why isn't the nanny answering my call......" Anne mumbled. The door to the ward pushed open, and Sarah came in with a plate of aglio olio. She then set it aside on the table.
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
