In Anthony's office, Oliver went inside and handed him a mobile phone. "I found it under the passenger seat of Tommy's Borsche."Anthony was scrolling through the mobile phone, and a sophisticated look could be seen in his eyes. It was as if he was not surprised. "How did you know that Ms. Vallois had a second mobile phone?" Oliver asked. "Leaving something as important as a mobile phone at home twice probably meant that she discovered the locator a long time ago." Anthony's eyes were sharp, and he seemed to have seen through everything.Oliver did not expect Anne to be that smart. Most people would never have thought of that. Anthony glanced at Oliver and said, "Don't underestimate her, or you'll get fooled by her." "Then... do you want to take her to the Royal Mansion to keep her watched?" Oliver asked. Anthony squinted his black eyes slightly, his eyes glinting. After a moment of silence, he said, "The fun of hunting lies in the fact that the prey has to run away, not lo
The other nurses could not help whispering. "What is this for?" "I don't know." "What else could it be? She's going to be fired! What an eyesore she is!" said Zelda as she came over. Anne was taken all the way to the door of the office. She did not need to ask to know who was inside. She knocked on the office door, and she only went in when she heard the low and deep voice from inside. "Come in." The man sitting on the office chair was dressed in noble black. He looked deep and unpredictable, staring at Anne as if he was looking at his prey. "What do you want with me?" Anne trembled when her eyes met his. "Your body is recovering well." Anne lowered her head slightly. Her terrifying memories resurfaced, and her body shrank further into her clothes. He did not come here on purpose to ask her this, did he? "Come here." His voice was low but commanding. Anne was jittery. She dared not hesitate for too long. She suppressed her fear, stepped forward, and approached
"Mr. Marwood, I'm here to bring you coffee." Anne was taken aback by this familiar voice. Zelda? Why was Zelda here to deliver coffee? She subconsciously looked at Anthony's cold and deep expression. Zelda stood outside the door, holding a cup of coffee in her hand, but Anne knew she had other intentions just from the seductive look on her face. She had asked permission from the higher-ups. If Mr. Marwood took a fancy to her, they would benefit from it too. The higher-ups believed her because they had also heard the rumor that Mr. Marwood only stared at her when he entered the door! Anthony's gaze fell on Anne's stunned little face. "Come in!" Anne was startled and looked at Anthony in disbelief. ‘What should I do now?’ she thought inwardly. If her colleague had seen this scene, she would face a lot of unnecessary trouble at work! The door was opened. Zelda saw the powerful man in the seat, and her heart fluttered. Closing the door, she came forward with the c
Only Anthony was expressionless from start to finish as if everything that happened had nothing to do with him. His hand wrapped around Anne's waist and pulled her toward him. "Mmm!" She lay on top of him, unable to get up. His hand around her waist was wrapped tightly around her. "Did you enjoy the show?" Anthony bit her ear lightly. Anne shivered, closed her eyes, and stopped resisting. Zelda understood everything when she saw the scene. Someone had climbed onto Mr. Marwood's bed before her! And it was Anne, the person she hated the most! "Take your coffee and get out!" Anthony's voice turned solemn and cold. Zelda was so frightened that her face turned pale. She covered her body with her clothes in one hand and took the coffee in the other. She then opened the door in embarrassment and escaped. She had not even dressed herself before exiting. "You… you're making more enemies for me." Anne did not dare to resist him. She sounded aggrieved instead.Anthony pinch
"What are you doing?" Anne leaned closer and saw her mother frying eggs in the shape of the heads of animals. It looked very cute, and she could not help laughing, saying, "Don't go to so much trouble. They are not picky eaters.""I know they aren't picky, but I want to see them happy!" Anne felt warmth in her heart. She was glad that she forgave her mother. Every mother loved her child. Cheyenne must have been under some harsh circumstances to be forced to leave her. Besides, she knew what her family was like. In her family, her father was the boss. He did not take care of his family and did not help in taking care of the child either. He even went to gamble. He would drink after losing a bet and when he had gotten drunk, he would beat others up. He even used the money to buy groceries for gambling. Once her mother stopped him, she was beaten up by her father. One of her eyes was almost blind, and her body was bruised all over. Anne was very scared when she was with her mot
"If you don’t have anything to tell me, I'll hang up..." "Do you still remember how Francis died?" Sarah asked hurriedly. Cheyenne looked at the children in a panic as she grabbed the edge of the table, trying to calm herself. "Is… he dead? I don't know." "It was dark and windy that night at the top of the Antipodal Mountain. You really don't remember?" Cheyenne's face turned pale. "You..." "Unfortunately, I saw everything that day." "You... what do you want?" "Haven't I been very clear? Leave Anne. The further, the better, and you will never return to her life! I'll give you three days' time. Whether to leave or go to jail is up to you." After hanging up the phone for a while, Cheyenne still could not come back to her senses. It brought back memories that had been covered in dust for many years. She did not expect Sarah to discover them. ‘What should I do? Leave?’ thought Cheyenne. She looked at the children frolicking on the ground, and her eyes turned teary.
Lily took it and put it on the desk. Lucas pushed his glasses and uttered, "I don't accept bribes." "What’s ‘bribe’?" Charlie asked bluntly. Anne whispered, "Say hello to the Principal..." "Hello, Principal!" the three little kids said in unison. "Being nice won't give you an advantage either." Lucas rested his hand on his chin, held a pen between his fingers, and twirled it in an orderly manner. "What is your education level, what job do you have, and what is the family income?" "I… I did not get my bachelor’s degree at college, and now I work at Aesthetic Clinic with an income of less than 2,000..." Anne knew that she was not very qualified. Apparently, the parents were the ones getting interviewed, not the children... Lucas frowned slightly. "Where's the children's father?" "The children's father… is gone..." Anne said. "What university were you in?" "Cambridge." Lucas wondered if she was lying. "Your conditions do not meet the requirements for your childre
"Mom, if you're gone, no one will help me take care of the children..." Anne said. "The nursery will take good care of the children. Don't worry." Anne leaned against the wall as if she was looking for something to support her up. "You really hate having me as your daughter, don't you?" "Anne, I'm sorry..." Cheyenne hung up. Anne could not accept it. She could not wrap her head around the reason.Suddenly, she thought of the bank card her mother gave her last night. ‘Is it because she has no more money and needs to work? ‘No, that is not right. ‘Mom likes the three little kids so much. How could she leave all of a sudden?’ she thought to herself. Anne asked the director for leave and went to Cheyenne's apartment. It turned out that no one was there. All the clothes in the closet were still there. However, no one answered her calls. ‘What happened? ‘Is something wrong?’ It was getting dark, and Anne had to pick up the children. She could not just leave
