Bianca did not dare to speak anymore, was Anthony doubting her intentions? What she said was the truth! She did not do it on purpose. She was afraid that Anthony would become suspicious, which would be bad for her. Even if he did, though, he had no evidence, and he could not do anything to her. It would not affect the relationship between the two of them. Chloe was moved to the VIP ward and woke up more than half an hour later. "Mama..." Before she opened her eyes, she called her mother. "Chloe?" "Chloe!" When Chloe opened her eyes, she saw her two brothers and her father next to her. When she saw Bianca standing on the other side, she pouted. 'Why wasn't Mama with her…' Anthony immediately took the thermos cup next to him, put a straw in it, and held it to her mouth. "Come on, drink some water." Chloe felt uncomfortable, but she opened her small mouth aggrievedly and drank. "Drink some more," Anthony said when he noticed that her mouth was about to leave the
"No, no, I want this one." "Okay." Anthony was pampering Chloe. Even if Chloe wanted the stars in the sky at this moment, he would find a way to pluck them from the sky. Except if she wanted Anne... When Anthony thought of her, his eyes turned cold. Next to him, Hayden noticed Anthony's changing expression and had a plan in his heart. At this moment, Anne did not know that her daughter was hospitalized due to her seafood allergy. She was shopping with Tommy. Anne was going crazy. "What is it with you and your shopping? You're a man!" "How ungrateful of you. I brought you out for some fresh air because I noticed you were in a bad mood." Tommy took a sip of coffee. "Why don't you drink your coffee?" Anne held her phone in one hand and coffee in the other. Her thoughts were all on her phone, and she forgot to drink. "Find a place to sit. Your feet are tired." "I'll rest there." The two of them went over and found a secluded corner to sit down. On weekdays, ther
"Yes, Ms. Vallois, don't worry. The child had a seafood allergy, and her condition stabilized because she was sent to the hospital in time. Mr. Marwood also fed her some food just now, don't worry," Hayden said. Anne's muscles weakened. If Tommy had not grabbed her, she would have fallen to the ground. "But how did Ms. Vallois know about Chloe's condition?" Hayden asked. "Bianca told me…" Anne's mind became much clearer after learning that Chloe was all right and asked, "Why did she eat seafood? Did she eat it alone? I did tell Anthony to refrain from giving them seafood!" "Yes, it was my negligence. The children said that they wanted to eat noodles, and Ms. Bianca was there. She said that she would make the children noodles, and she made noodles with crab soup. All three children ate it. Only Charlie and Chris were fine. Ms. Chloe is allergic..." "Bianca?" Anne was both angry and scared. Was Bianca doing what she promised her? Was she going to torment her triplets? "Ms.
If he had left with Anne, all of this would not have happened. The person with all the power would have been him, not Anthony! Anne walked and noticed there was no one beside her. She turned around and saw Tommy behind, standing motionless and looking at her. Just as she was about to ask him what was wrong, she saw Tommy come over and gently embrace her. "I never said... I'm sorry. Anne, I'm sorry. …” Anne was stunned. She never expected that Tommy would use such a gentle voice to apologize to her. She was a little moved. She once had the idea of relying on Tommy, and she still had that feeling after returning from abroad until he betrayed her. After thinking about it, he did not do anything to hurt her. He just helped her. Anne pushed his hand away and turned around. "No need to apologize. This is the end of the matter. Stop thinking about the past. Anyway, no matter what you say, I won't leave now." Tommy walked beside her. "So you resisted Anthony just for the sa
There was a knock on the door. Hayden thought to himself, who else would be coming here so late? The person who came in was Bianca. When she saw the children who had not slept inside, she had a gentle smile on her face. "I thought they had already slept! Chloe, how are you feeling? The rash on your face has disappeared a lot. Can you be discharged from the hospital tomorrow?" Hayden said, "Yes, she will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow if everything goes as planned." "That's great," Bianca said. Her eyes were suddenly drawn to the ring on Chloe's hand. The smile on her lips froze, and she looked at Anthony's empty fingers. Anthony gave Chloe the engagement ring to play with. How could he give it up that easily? Chloe must have wanted to play with it, and Anthony had to take it down for her. "Ah!" The ring accidentally slipped from her hand and fell to the ground with a clear sound. Bianca felt as if she had been hit in the face. She could not take out her anger
Anne went to freshen herself up. When she came out, breakfast was already on the table. It was the food that she loved to eat. Sarah did not usually eat so early, so she accompanied Anne at breakfast. "You don't look very well. Did you not sleep well last night?" Sarah asked. "I was scrolling through my phone." "You're still young, but you still have to take care of your health!" Sarah told her. "I know, I don't do this very often." Just as Sarah was about to speak, the phone in her bag rang. She got up and went to get her mobile phone. She felt a little familiar when she saw a series of numbers on it, and answered, "Who is it?" "Quite free, are you? Since Anne, the mother of the three children, won't come to see her children, why don't you come instead?" Bianca said on the phone. Sarah was startled and turned to look at Anne. Anne's face was not good, as if she did not sleep much at night, was it really because she scrolled on her phone the whole night? She b
Anne's body was slightly tense, and her expression was painful. How did Bianca know about her relationship with Tommy? She did not dare to look at Anthony's face. "Anne cared about the child very much and did not sleep well last night because she was thinking about the child. No one loves the child more than her! Easy for you to say when you're not Chloe's mother!" Sarah explained to her. As long as Anthony was by her side, Bianca had the nerve to do anything she wanted. She said gently to Anthony next to her, "Anthony, I'm sorry, it was I who called Sarah. I thought that since Anne did not have time to see the child, Sarah could come instead. I did not expect Anne to come too. I hope you understand!" This meant that Anthony did not want to see Anne. "I'll just take a look. It won't be long," Anne said nervously. She stayed up all night, and now she was at the door of the hospital. She was only one door away from her kids, and she missed them so much. Anthony's expressi
"Go back? You don't want to see the child anymore?" "Anthony won't let me see her. He looks pretty determined. He won't even allow it even though Chloe told him she wanted to see me." Anne was very depressed. "Go to your father then!" "Don't bother Dad. He has enough problems on his plate already. Besides, can you guarantee that I can see the children if we go to Dad? Anthony usually gets what he wants," Anne said. "So, are you going to find Anthony and beg him?" Sarah was unwilling to do this. Who knew what Anthony would want Anne to do in exchange? After getting in the car, Sarah said, "Go back to the mansion with me first. You are not allowed to stay at home alone. If you don't eat or sleep, you are going to ruin your body and your chances of seeing the child." "Mom, wait a minute," Anne said as soon as the car started. "What?" "You drive the car away. I'll hide here and wait for them to come out. I will take a look at her secretly," Anne said. "How do you know w
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
