Ch. 1116..1120: Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 1116-1120
Chapter 1116
Especially Chloe, whose physique was not as great as the others since birth.
Mia saw Hayden coming over with tea and said, "Sir, let me do it!"
Then, she took the tea and brought it to the side table next to Anthony. "Mr. Marwood, your tea."
Anthony was looking at Anne interacting with the children, and he did not respond to Mia.
Anne could clearly see a hint of disappointment flash on Mia's face.
So, Mia had such feelings for Anthony.
Was Anthony aware of it?
It seemed that he did not.
However, Anne did not dwell on the matter. After all, Mia was already here when she first came to the Royal Mansion. If there were really something between Anthony and Mia, Mia would have already stepped on her.
Liking Anthony was already a dangerous thing.
If she were not afraid of death, why should she be worried about others?
At night, Anne followed the three little ones to their room, but Anthony forcibly took her back to the master bedroom. Not only that, but he even pushed her into the bathroom.
Anne was anxious all over. "W-What are you doing?"
"You aren't allowed to sleep there." Anthony pushed Anne against the glass door, and she could feel his hot breath all over her reddened face.
Anne felt a little dizzy, as if she could hear her heartbeat.
"1-1 won't sleep there then." Anne looked down, hiding her sparkling eyes.
Anthony's black eyes narrowed slightly. His throat tightened when he saw Anne's obedient appearance. When he was about to kiss her, she reached out and covered his thin lips with her hand.
Anne felt Anthony's scorching breath on her tender palm, and it was so ticklish that she quickly removed her hand.
She was feeling even more uncomfortable.
’No..."
"I thought I could satisfy you. Hmm?"
Anne's tiny face became redder. "Stop talking..."
Then, she turned around and went to the door, trying to get out.
"You haven't showered yet." Anthony pulled her back.
"I don't want to..." Anne's mind was a mess, and she did not know what she was blabbering about.
Anthony's eyes turned darker, looking as bottomlessly as the abyss. Next, he picked her up and went to the shower.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Anne arrived at the company on time in the Rolls Loyce.
Anthony watched her enter the building and took out his phone to call Bianca.
Bianca was still asleep, and the call woke her up.
Initially, she wanted to get angry. However, she happily answered the call when she realized the ringtone was the one she had specially set for Anthony's calls.
"Hello, Anthony, is that you? I didn't expect you to call me. I think you treated me like that the last time because you were worried about the children. My face has recovered. Don't worry."
Not long after Anne entered the office, her cell phone rang.
It was a text message ringtone.
She picked up her phone to check to find that it was a screenshot.
It was a screenshot of the call log between Bianca and Anthony just now.
Moreover, it was Anthony who took the initiative to call Bianca.
Anne's heart sank suddenly, and the phone fell aside.
When the phone rang, Anne looked at the number on the screen.
It was Bianca calling.
Anne knew she should not answer, but she could not help but do the opposite.
Soon, Bianca's proud voice sounded. "Did you see that? Seriously, Anne, I don't envy you at all now. I didn't know being a mistress would be so much fun! I'll give you back everything you did to me before."
"So what if Anthony called you?"
"It means that he cares about me! He came to comfort me because I was so angry with you during the phone call yesterday! It means that he only has me in his heart, and you're just the mother of the triplets! When I get pregnant with Anthony's baby later, there'll be nothing for you and the triplets!"
Chapter 1117
“Do you think he’ll touch you?”
“Just because he never did, doesn’t mean he never will.” Bianca was confident.” You’ll witness that day.”
Anne lost the chance to speak as Bianca had already hung up the phone.
She sat down on the chair in a daze, lost in thought.
Would Anthony have something with Bianca?
She did not wish for that day to come…
Suddenly, her phone rang again, and it was a news notification.
Anne did not pick up her phone but just glanced at it.
However, her gaze stopped and looked at the screen again-[The principal of Pinnacle Academy was involved in a car accident last night and was sent to the hospital by the ambulance. His life and death are currently unknown.]
Shocked, Anne hurriedly picked up her phone and opened the news page.
The photo showed the car crash with some parts scattered on the dark street, faintly illuminated with the street lights.
There was also some liquid, but Anne could not tell whether the dark puddle was gasoline or blood…
Even though she could not see the license plate, Anne knew it was Lucas’s car at a glance.
It was reported that someone was driving drunk and hit Lucas, who was waiting for the traffic light.
His car was not the only one that was hit, and there were also others. Someone even left a comment below saying that they had witnessed the scene of the car accident with their own eyes, and someone…died on the spot…
Anne was so frightened that she dropped her phone, and her face was ashen,
Then, she picked it up slowly.
Anne called Lucas, but no one picked up.
After scanning the name of the hospital on the report, Anne immediately left the office, went to the parking lot, and asked the driver to take her to the hospital.
“Mrs. Marwood, are you feeling unwell?” The driver was nervous.
If there was a problem, he had to inform Anthony immediately. Otherwise, he would be scolded!
At the thought of Anthony’s imposing aura, the driver panicked and felt weak in his knees.
“No. I’m visiting a friend.”
The driver breathed a sigh of relief.
After Anne got into the car, he drove toward the hospital.
As soon as Anne arrived at the hospital, she saw reporters interviewing doctors, nurses, and patients here!
Anne secretly prayed for Lucas to be safe!
He was such a good man, and she would never forget the gratitude he once gave her for helping her.
“Hello, is there any patient from Lucas Newman? He was brought in because he was involved in a car accident last night,” Anne hurriedly asked the nurse.
“The one brought in last night didn’t survive.”
“W–What…” Anne was shocked and became teary–eyed/
How could this happen?
How could Lucas die?
He did not do anything, and his car was just parked there. Yet, he lost his life in vain because someone else hit his car while driving drunk?
Anne could not accept this…
“Anne?”
Anne was shocked, turned around, and looked at Lucas standing in the distance. His
one hand was wrapped in gauze and hanging around his neck.
Anne ran over in disbelief. “Lucas, you…”
Before she even finished speaking, Lucas pulled her into his arms with one hand, and she was taken aback.
In the Archduke Group, the meeting room door opened, and Anthony walked out.
On the wall leading to his office, the car accident at the intersection last night was being reported.
Behind him, Oliver said, “I read the report. There were casualties, and Lucas was among them.”
Anthony’s eyes darkened, and his sharp gaze swept toward the wall.
It showed the scene in the hospital.
Anthony abruptly stopped in his tracks.
Oliver also stopped. “Mr. Marwood?”
Chapter 1118
“Rewind to thirty seconds before,” Anthony ordered while staring at the scene.
The receptionist did not know what was happening, so she hurriedly took the remote control to rewind for 30 seconds.
After three seconds, Anthony said coldly, “Pause and zoom in on the side.”
The receptionist did as he ordered.
After zooming in, Oliver noticed that Anthony’s aura had turned hostile. Then, he looked at the screen on the wall again and found out where the problem was.
The reporter’s camera showed an interview with the doctor.
Not far from the doctor, Lucas appeared. Anne even ran toward Lucas and then was hugged by him…
According to Oliver’s analysis, Anne should either be in the Royal Mansion or the company. Hence, the reason she was at the hospital was because of Lucas.
Not only that, but she was even caught on camera hugging Lucas.
It was quite a distance away from the camera, and no one would know who they were unless they zoomed in. Yet, Anthony could notice it at a glance.
Oliver secretly felt that the matter was serious and someone would suffer.
The next shot was switched, and the two were out of sight.
Anthony was angry and entered his office, slamming the door shut with a loud bang.
The whole floor was trembling with fright.
Oliver stood there. Before he could even move, the closed office door opened three seconds later, and a black figure came out, heading for the elevator swiftly.
Oliver could feel the tension, and he was worried for Anne.
Anne was a little uncomfortable, so she got out of Lucas’s arms, took a step back, and asked, “You’re fine? That’s not what I mean…just now, the nurse said the one brought in last night didn’t survive, and I thought it was you…”
Lucas stared at Anne, noticing Anne’s nervousness and sadness just now.
Her concern made him feel much better.
“My driver died,” Lucas said in a heavy tone.
Anne knew the driver, and she could not help feeling sorry. “My condolences.”
Anne nodded.
“I was dealing with his affairs just now. He has parents and a younger sister at home. I’ll try my best to compensate.”
Anne nodded. “You’re a good boss. But why didn’t you answer the phone?”
“The phone was in the car, and it broke.”
“That makes sense.”
“Did you come here because you were worried about me?” Lucas asked, looking intently at her.
“Of course I’d be worried after reading that news! Thankfully, you’re fine…” Anne said, “Since you’re alright, I’ll return to my office.”
“Anne.”
Anne looked at Lucas, puzzled.
“Spend some time with me?”
Anne hesitated, and she immediately thought about Anthony.
She just came to confirm Lucas’s situation. Since he was fine, she should not stay here anymore.
“I…” Just as Anne was about to reject him, a cold voice sounded from behind-
“Are you two giving me a surprise?”
Anne was so frightened that her mind was buzzing. Before she could turn around, someone grabbed her arm tightly, pulling her over violently-
“Ah!”
Anne crashed into Anthony’s arms directly, and she could vividly feel Anthony’s cold and hostile aura.
Anthony narrowed his eyes, exuding a dangerous vibe. “Have I been too nice to you? Hmm?”
“No… let me explain. I…”
“There’s a way to appease me.” Anthony looked up. “Break his other hand so that he’ll learn a lesson of what will happen if he touches my woman!”
“No…” Anne grabbed his arm anxiously. “You can’t do this!”
Chapter 1119
“Are you pleading for him?” Anthony was filled with ruthlessness.
“No, I really am not doing that. I was frightened when I saw the news, so I wanted to come and see if Mr. Newman is fine. I was prepared to leave once I saw him,” Anne explained in a hurry.
She was afraid that Anthony would act crazy and truly do what he said.
If so, she would be greatly at fault.
However, her explanation was useless. Anthony bellowed with viciousness, “Do it!”
The bodyguards behind him rushed forward.
Anne was frightened, and she pushed him away with great force. “Anthony, don’t you dare!”
“Watch and see if I dare or not.” Anthony’s patience has its limits.
He has been provoked over and over again. Did they truly think that he did not dare. to do it?
The corridor of the hospital was completely blocked off by Anthony’s guards. Everybody else, whether they were the doctors, nurses, patients, or the patients‘ families, took a detour to get across as they were afraid that they would end up as collateral damage.
Anne looked at Lucas. There was not the slightest bit of panic on Lucas‘ face, and he seemed like he was waiting for Anthony to take action.
Anne absolutely could not let Lucas get hurt because of her.
She would never be able to forgive herself.
Also, they would be watched by so many people in their surroundings.
Anne racked her brain thinking of a countermeasure, then she moved forward out of desperation, hung herself off Anthony’s broad shoulder, and kissed his thin lips.
Anthony’s black eyes shook for a moment. Her soft lips were stuck to him and her faint fragrance was piercing through his nose, which made his viciousness within disappear gradually.
He turned from being passive to taking charge and swallowed her lips in a domineering and obsessive manner without giving her the chance to breathe at all.
A faint fury appeared on Lucas‘ face and he clenched his fists next to his body.
When Anne was almost out of breath, she turned her face to the side and asked while panting, “Are you all cooled down now?”
Even though Anthony’s face was as cold as frost, he was much calmer than before.
Anne glared at him a little, then she directly walked off with her head lowered.
Anthony’s cold and sharp black eyes turned to Lucas. “Watch it or you’ll be completely smashed when you’re caught in a car accident next time.”
Anne walked out of the hospital and immediately saw that domineering and expensive limited edition Rolls Loyce.
That was the symbol of money and power.
She voluntarily got into the car and waited for Anthony.
It was after she saw that tall shadow walking out of the hospital that her
nervousness was relieved.
It looked like that kiss under the watchful eyes of everybody was useful. The ferocious beast simply needed to be comforted.
Anthony got into the car and shot a glance at Anne coldly. “Go.”
The car drove away from the hospital majestically.
Lucas was not hurt, but that did not mean everything was fine with Anthony.
Anne could tell from the freezing atmosphere in the car that there was an unexposed danger.
“If you’re really unhappy, come at me. There’s no need for you to attack Lucas. He’s my friend, so it’s only natural that I don’t wish something would happen to him,” said Anne as she did her best to not put in any emotions.
“Come at you? Would you be able to take it?” Anthony’s black eyes were ice cold.
“Are you going to break my arm?” asked Anne while finding it hard to breathe.
As soon as she finished asking that question, the air in the car became even colder, so much so that water droplets would almost turn to ice.
Anthony’s terrifying aura was almost irrepressible.
Truth be told, even if Anne had fallen in love with Anthony, she would still be fearful of the means Anthony would use.
After all, the person that Anthony liked was not her. How could she truly be fearless…
The person who was fearless knowing she had someone backing her up was Bianca
Anne saw Anthony raising his hand and her body subconsciously tensed up.
Immediately after, she saw Anthony turning on the screen in the car.
Just as Anne was curious about what he wanted to do, she saw on the screen the segment of the reporter conducting an interview in the hospital was cut and selected.
She then felt something tighten around her wrist and she was dragged over roughly…
“Ah!”
“Look carefully at what you’ve done!” Anthony’s handsome face was vicious.
Anne saw it.
Chapter 1120
She was running toward Lucas, then she was hugged by him.
Due to the angle of the camera, it looked as if she had rushed into Lucas‘ arms.
Anne did not expect that that was the reason Anthony appeared at the hospital.
She thought it was the driver who had tipped Anthony off.
“Is this what you mean by you don’t like him?” Anthony was terrifyingly cold. “Are you forgetting that you`re Mrs. Marwood now?”
Anne’s throat got a little tight. “This is a misunderstanding.”
“Do you think I’m blind? Hmm?” Anthony was grabbing the back of her neck, and as long as he put a little force, that slender neck of hers would be snapped by him!
Anne also got pissed off being pinned by him. “I already told you it’s a misunderstanding. I can’t help it either if you still think of it this way!”
There was nothing going on between her and Lucas, but the same might not necessarily be true for Anthony and Bianca!
Why must she be completely controlled by him? He was too domineering!
“What did you say?” Anthony was infuriated by her words. His gaze became so scary as if he was about to tear her into pieces.
Anne pushed his hand away, took her seat once again, and looked outside the car
window with a cold expression.
The temperature in the car dropped to an extreme level. Anthony’s black eyes were staring straight at her and his wrath was surging.
It was not as if Anne was not afraid.
Due to nervousness, she gripped her pants with one hand so hard that her knuckles turned white.
However, she was right, was she not?
Was there a problem for her to immediately go and check out the situation when something happened to Lucas?
As a friend, should she not do that?
Was Anthony her lawfully wedded husband? No, he was her predator!
He was a habitually obsessive devil!
Anne thought that Anthony would lose control and do something to her in the car.
However, he did not move at all and exuded an icy air all over him throughout the ride to the entrance of her company.
Anne did not say anything either. She just got out of the car and walked toward her company.
When she looked back, the Rolls Loyce was already gone.
Anne returned to her office and took her seat. She even threw her phone on the desk.
Then, she grabbed her phone and saw the provoking text that Bianca had sent.
She felt it was an eyesore and it made her feel heartbroken.
Therefore, she deleted it.
She and Anthony were not suitable for each other in the end!
After all, both of them were not equals from the very beginning. They loathed each other.
Could they really bear no grudge in the end when they started with hatred?
Up until that point, she still had no idea why Anthony got a marriage certificate with her.
No matter how much she thought about it, she felt it was for the sake of the three children.
Also, her willingness to stay by Anthony’s side was most probably for the sake of the children as well.
After all…even though she had fallen in love with Anthony, she would not want something that did not belong to her.
She would never obtain it by force…
Anthony did not call her the whole day, and her phone was completely silent as if it was broken, which made her unable to calm down instead.
After she got off work, she took a cab home herself.
When she returned to the Royal Mansion, the Rolls Loyce was not at the entrance.
She was secretly anticipating that the Rolls Loyce had been driven into the garage and Anthony was already home.
After she entered the mansion, she did not see the children, as well as Anthony, so she could not help but ask Hayden, “Did Anthony not come back?”
“Mr. Marwood called and said he’s not coming home for dinner. Don’t you know?” Hayden found it strange.
Of course, Anne did not know.
It looked like Anthony was truly upset.
However, that was the first time she saw another side of Anthony when he was upset.
