Ch. 1221..1225: Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 1221-1225

Chapter 1221

Seeing her afraid, he comforted her, “He won’t see me. I sneaked in.”

“How…did you come in?” Anne asked, “The door is locked and it can’t be opened unless Anthony permits it.”

“I came over from the balcony of your apartment. Don’t worry. I’ve placed a steel plate there, so it’s very easy to come over,” said Lucas.

Anne felt saddened, and tears welled up in her eyes to the point that they were almost streaming down her face.

However, she still pushed Lucas away. “Don’t let Anthony find out. Hurry up and leave!”

“I’ll take you away with me,” said Lucas.

“Unless Anthony were to let me go, I won’t be able to leave. Otherwise, even if I manage to get out of this room, can I leave Luton?” said Anne.

“Don’t worry. I’ll arrange everything as long as you’re willing to leave.”

Anne looked at him with tears in her eyes. “What about you then? What about the school? Mr. Newman, I can’t get you and your parents involved.”

To Lucas, it was not a problem for him to bring Anne away from here.

The main issue was his parents and his career.

Unless he were to give up on both of them.

However, even if Lucas agreed to do so, Anne would not agree.

That would be too selfish of her that way.

Lucas fell silent for a moment. “I’ll first get you out of here.”

“No. I’m not leaving…”

“Chloe is missing.”

“What…did you say?” Anne was startled.

“The children haven’t seen their mother for a long time, so they went looking all over the place for you, and now, Chloe is missing.”

Anne was frightened and panicked, then she hurriedly stood up. “Why would she be missing? How could Anthony let her go missing? This won’t do. I want to get out and

look for her!”

“Hold on. I’ll find something to see if I can pry this chain open,” Lucas comforted her.

He turned around and went to look for a tool.

Bianca saw that it was about time, so she dialed Anthony’s number.

Anthony was in a rage looking for his daughter.

When he saw the incoming call, he directly rejected it.

“You won’t pick up?” Bianca was angry.

Just when she was about to call him again, she changed her mind.

She truly wanted to tip him off and said Lucas had come over after threatening her.

Since he did not pick up her call, then it was none of her business anymore.

If Lucas eloped with Anne when the time came, then the plot would only thicken.

Anne would die even quicker then!

Thinking of that, Bianca kept her phone.

Just when she was about to start her car, she looked up and saw a black Rolls Loyce appear downstairs the apartment, and it was closing dangerously like a black panther.

Bianca covered her mouth in shock. When she saw Anthony getting out of the car, she hurriedly covered her mouth even tighter as she was afraid her breath inside the car would be found out by him.

Anthony went into the building himself and went into the elevator.

Bianca almost burst out laughing.

Her luck was too good. Then, it was Anne’s turn to have bad luck.

If she was not afraid that she would be involved in trouble, she truly wanted to watch the moment Anthony entered the apartment and saw Lucas and Anne getting

intimate.

However, she did not leave either. She continued waiting inside the car as she wanted to witness Anne’s miserable end.

Lucas really found a plier in the apartment. It was fortunate that the chain was not thick, so it should not be a problem.

Just when he grabbed the chain and was about to cut it, Anne grabbed his hand. “If I

were to leave with you, Anthony certainly won’t let the two of us go. When the time comes, I still won’t be able to see my children. Mr. Newman, I can leave Luton, but you can’t. Don’t let me bear the psychological burden, alright? Trust me. I will think of a way to get out. I didn’t get out before this because I suffered a severe blow. Now that my child is missing, I won’t stay here any longer.”

Chapter 1222

“How are you going to leave? Will Anthony allow it? Why exactly is he treating you like that? Is he still human for hurting you like that?! He’s supposed to treat you better for the sake of the children at the very least!” Lucas, who always had a calm personality, was about to burst out in anger.

He thought that since Anthony wanted to have Anne so badly, then at least…he would not hurt her like that!

At that moment, her face was slit so badly. He simply was a madman!

“It’s because of… Tommy.” Anne was in pain. “I bumped into Tommy when I went to the Aesthetic Clinic to enquire about scar removal, and I returned to the company in his car. I spoke to him a little at the entrance of the office and Anthony heard it. It was nothing much. I just said I’ll make him a cup of coffee, then Anthony lost control of his emotions…”

“Then what happened to your face?” asked Lucas.

Anne knew he had misunderstood, so she said, “Anthony didn’t do this to my face. was Lilian, but she’s already dead. It’s fine…”

“How can this be fine? Anthony will only be even scarier than Lilian!”

“Mr. Newman, I’m being serious. I will think of a way to get out of there. Hurry up and leave!”

“Anne…”

“Mr. Newman, I don’t want you to get hurt because of me. Thank you for telling me about my child. Just leave!” Anne pushed him away without any strength.

Lucas‘ eyes met Anne’s pleading and helpless gaze, and that deep pain in his heart made him feel terrible.

He endured it, turned around, and went out of the room.

Just as he put the pliers back in its original place, he heard the door being unlocked, which made his entire body freeze.

Anthony pushed the door open and entered the apartment.

He did not go to the living room, but he went straight to the room instead.

The door to the room was left ajar. He placed his fingers on the door and pushed it open.

Anne, who was standing there, turned her head around. She thought Lucas had

returned.

When she saw Anthony’s face, fear immediately surged in her body and made her dizzy for a moment.

Has Lucas left?

Why would Anthony come over at this moment?

Anthony entered, and the slender figure stood right in front of her. “What are you doing standing here?”

Anne lowered her gaze. “I was a little tired from lying down…”

“You seem to be very nervous when you see me.” Anthony’s sharp black eyes were almost going to stare a hole in her weak body.

Anne said softly, “Because I didn’t forget how you treated me the last time…”

Anthony did not mind. He lifted his gaze a little and scanned the room. Those sharp and cold eyes did not let any of the suspicious places go.

He even walked to the bathroom, opened the door, and scanned through the entire place.

When he returned and walked past Anne, his black eyes were also staring sharply at her face. Then, he left the room.

Anne almost could not breathe and her breath felt exceptionally heavy.

Has Lucas left? Could he still be trapped in the apartment?

Anne was so nervous that her entire body turned to jelly but her legs were so stiff that she could not move at all.

Anthony went to the living room and headed toward the balcony.

Lucas had already gotten back to the balcony next door and was retrieving the steel plate.‘

Just as he went into the apartment in a hurry, Anthony happened to walk to the balcony. Both situations seemed to be happening at the same time.

Anthony scanned the balcony and did not find anybody. Only then did he turn around and return to the living room with a reserved air.

It was after Lucas heard the footsteps going back inside that he managed to breathe properly. He moved the steel plate to the room and tossed it under the bed before he

left.

Bianca saw Lucas coming out unharmed and found it very strange.

What did that mean? Was it already over? Did nothing happen at all?

If Anthony found out they were having an affair, how could he spare them?

Could it be that he did not find out?

Bianca was very disappointed!

She did not go upstairs to expose Lucas and Anne’s secret because if it had happened once, it would happen again. She still wished that they would be caught by Anthony himself.

Chapter 1223

After that, she drove off.

Anthony walked into the room and looked at Anne with a deep and unfathomable

gaze.

Anne was still standing there. She knew when she saw him coming that he did not find out about Lucas. Only then did she recover her senses and sat at the edge of the

bed.

“When are you going to let me out? You said you’ll let me out as long as I admit my

mistake.” Anne looked at him with her face lifted.

“Even if you go out, you won’t be able to save your company either,” said Anthony coldly and harshly.

Anne’s hands, which were placed on top of her legs, curled a little. She lowered her head and misery was showering in her eyes.

Anthony closed in on her even more. He stroked her chin with his rough finger, lifted

it, and forced her to face him.

“What are you prepared to do? Jump off the building?”

“No. I’m just missing my children.” Anne raised both her hands, hugged his huge arm, and went into a pleading position. “Master, I truly realized I was wrong. Let me out of here, alright?”

“Let me see your performance.” Anthony’s black eyes were fixated on her and his gaze was deep and obsessive.

Anne thought of her previous experiences and her mind subconsciously thought of

what he meant by ‘performance‘.

She shuddered in secret.

She absolutely could not take it. That kind of fear that was deep in her bones made her face turn pale as soon as she recalled the past.

However…she wanted to go out…

At the same time, she could show that she was worried about the children as she was afraid Anthony would be suspicious.

Anne got up, took the initiative to approach him, lifted her head, tip–toed, and kissed his thin lips gently.

That soft touch had no affection at all. All it had was ingratiation and fear.

Anthony did not move and just let her kiss him.

Anne did not dare to stop as she wanted to use this action to soften his heart.

Why was his heart so hardened? Did it not have blood flowing in there? Was his blood not warm?

How exactly could she warm his cold heart…

Just when it got so long that her feet, which were on her toes, were tired and she prepared to retreat, Anthony seized the momentum and pushed her to the bed. He held her chin, stuck her lips, which were about to be separated from his, against his own once again, and then he devoured them…

“Mmm!” Anne struggled to endure it.

Even if she was in extreme panic at that moment, she still held it in and accepted it.

Anthony spoke with a hoarse voice while sticking his thin lips on hers, “Are you satisfied with this reaction? Hmm? I’ll do as you wish…”

When Kathryn, who came to deliver the food, entered the apartment and saw Anthony coming out of the room, she was stunned. “Mr. Marwood…”

“Put it down.” Anthony’s voice was filled with a lazy tone like his desire had been greatly satiated.

“Yes.” Kathryn put the food down and left.

After Anne passed out for a short moment, she suddenly woke up. She touched the place next to her but nobody was there. “Anthony? Anthony…”

How could Anthony leave? He still has not said that he would let her out!

In a panic, Anne got out of bed, but she lost her balance and fell. “Ah…”

Her body was trembling severely because she had no strength.

However, she could not let Anthony leave as she did not know when would the next time for her to see him.

Just as she held the edge of the bed and was preparing to get up, her body felt light as she was picked up.

Before he placed her on the bed, Anne grabbed Anthony’s pajamas tightly. “I can go out alright, right?”

“Who said so?”

Anne was stunned in shock. “Why can’t I? I’m…already very obedient…”

Anthony put her on the bed and stared at her from above. “First, take a rest.”

“I’m fine. My body’s doing very well.”

“It looks like I didn’t work hard enough.” Anthony’s black eyes were staring at her.

 

Chapter 1224

“It’s not like that!” Anne was startled and she lowered her head. “I don’t mean it that way…”

Did Anthony have no idea how scary he was?

His rough fingers caressed her face with a scar. “I asked you to take a rest, so you have to listen to me. Alright?”

“But I miss the children very much…” Anne lifted her head, but when she met Anthony’s gaze, which turned cold, her voice immediately stopped.

Anthony released her. “I’ll go get the food.” Then, he walked out of the room.

Anne curled on the bed hugging her legs and touching the scar on her face with one hand.

Was she not very ugly?

She felt she was very ugly when she looked at herself in the mirror.

However…why was Anthony still filled with a strong sense of possessiveness as before?

Anne’s sorrowful tears filled her eyes. She did not understand. She truly could not understand…

After they had dinner, Anthony left.

Anne no longer had chains on her hands.

She did not dare to leave on her own.

Anthony’s mind ran extremely deep and he was unpredictable. This might just be a trap that he had set for her, and he was waiting for her to jump into it.

Anne walked toward the balcony. She leaned against the railing at the side, stood there, and stretched her neck as she wanted to see if someone was in the apartment.

She did not dare to call out Lucas‘ name.

She was afraid Anthony would hear it.

Even if Anthony was not around, the deep–seated fear in her bones made her worried.

Lucas should have already left. Otherwise, what could he do if he stayed? She could not leave anyway.

Just as she was prepared to turn around and leave, she noticed the balcony had been cleaned.

Who cleaned it?

Anne thought it was Lucas.

She stood by the railing and looked down. It was very high up.

If Anthony did not catch her that day, she would have climbed up the railing and jumped down after having an emotional meltdown.

Her body trembled when she recalled it.

She was in a state of complete darkness at that moment, but she would still worry and could not be calmed when she heard her child was missing.

She could not get out, but Anthony would certainly use all of his powers to search for

her.

She was his own flesh and blood.

The child who Anne was worried about was having especially loads of fun at that moment. She was instructing John to catch the fish in the water.

“Here, here!” Chloe pointed happily at a certain place in the water with her chubby finger.

John poked the sharpened stick in his hand into the water but he got nothing.

It was inevitable that he felt a little disappointed, so he threw the stick away. “Let’s go. Let’s find a place to stay. Otherwise, we’ll have to stay in the mountains after the

sun sets.”

“What will happen if we stay in the mountains?”

“You’ll be eaten by wolves at night.” John scared her.

As expected, Chloe did not dare to say anything anymore and her little face looked terrified. “Let’s hurry up and go then! But the river is too deep. I want to ride a boat!”

“Boat? What boat?”

“I want to ride a boat!”

Just as John was about to reject her, he saw an abandoned styrofoam box not far away and thought of a way.

He put Chloe inside the styrofoam box, and he found a piece of string. He then poked a hole at the top of the styrofoam box, put the string through it, and pulled the

styrofoam box from the front.

Chloe was extremely happy. “This is my little boat! Let’s go!”

“Don’t simply move about or the boat will overturn.” John miserable pulled the string and walked forward.

There was clearly a path to walk, but he had to pull this little princess around like that. He as a kidnapper was truly a failure.

“I’m warning you. I still want to go and get my money later, and you’ll have to cooperate with me,” said John.

Chloe was immersed in happiness and seemed like she did not hear John’s request at all.

John found a motel that was considered cheap, and then he brought Chloe to the

room.

Chapter 1225

He even ordered one serving of food from the owner for both of them to share.

After all, John did not have much money. All the money he was left with had been given to his wife and his son.

Chloe said, “I’m hungry. I want milk!”

“What milk? Isn’t this food?” John hit the plates with the spoon.

He had already given her half of the food. What more did she want?

“It’s not tasty!”

“There’s meat, greens…” John thought it made sense as well. She was Anthony’s child, so she certainly had been having a feast every meal. She certainly would not fancy all these foods. She could even tell that it was not tasty just by looking at it. Just make do with it a little!”

“I don’t want to!”

John had a headache. “Fine, fine, fine, I’ll go get you some milk.”

He then went to buy a bottle of milk for her from the owner of the motel.

”

While Chloe drank the milk, she looked at John eating the food, and then she asked, ” Can you stomach that?”

“A person can stomach anything when he’s hungry.”

The room was small and only had one bed.

John let Chloe sleep in the inner half of the bed to prevent her from falling off of it.

Just as they laid down, they heard a continuous sound coming from the room next door.

Chloe opened her mouth wide as she was curious. “What’s that sound?”

John replied to her with annoyance, “Just sleep!”

“Is something big happening? That girl is screaming very pitifully!” Chloe asked curiously.

After a while, she asked again, “Will the girl die?”

John was annoyed by her questions and the people next door, so he directly carried

Chloe out of there. “Let’s go, let’s go. Let’s go outside for a walk.”

The two of them, an adult and a child, sat on a hill and looked at the sky with their faces lifted.

“Wow, the stars are so pretty!” Chloe’s pretty eyes were also as bright as the stars.

Looking at her innocent look, John could not help but feel emotional. “My son is older than you. He already started going to school. I wonder if he’s asleep now or if he’s naughty and not listening to his mother… truth be told, you’re really good at picking the family to be born into. You managed to be Mr. Marwood’s child. You’re born with a silver spoon in your mouth and you possess things that others would not even dare to dream of. I envy you on my son’s behalf.”

Chloe did not quite understand what she heard and said with a dejected expression,” I can change my place with your son because I only want Mama…”

John thought that children would be children. They did not know how important money was to a person.

He did not discuss this with her. After all, they were not from the same startling line, so there was a huge generational gap.

“Mr. Walker, call my mama, alright? I miss her. I miss Papa too. I miss my brothers as well…” Tears were welling in Chloe’s eyes.

John looked at her pitiful face and said, “How about you cooperate with me? I’ll get my money and you go home to look for your mother. How about that?”

“I don’t want to!”

John was speechless.

“Mama is still not back yet. I want to wait for Mama to appear! Call Papa and say you’ve chopped off my hand!” Chloe taught him.

“I…” Just as John wanted to say something, the phone he had on him

startled him.

rang and

He had specially bought this phone for the sake of blackmail, so his family could not have called this phone. It could only be from Anthony’s side.

He looked at the phone and it was as he had expected.

“Ah! It’s Mama!” Chloe’s little face turned disappointed. “It might also be Papa…”

John took a deep breath and answered the call, “Hello?”

“The money has already been placed under the bridge. Where’s my child?”

“I’ll only release the child after I get the money. Also, tell your men that they’re not

allowed to appear around the bridge,” John demanded.

“Let the child answer the phone.” Anthony’s voice was cold and terrifying. John almost went to his knees.

He put the phone next to Chloe’s ear and signaled her to say something.

Chloe kept looking around as she was a little nervous. “Papa, save…me…”

“Is it fun?” Anthony was mighty without being angry.

Chloe was shocked. Has she been exposed?
