Ch. 1311..1315: Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 1311-1315
Chapter 1311
Anne’s strength was almost exhausted, and it was impossible for her to pull the heavy wooden door.
“Mmf!” Anne tried her utmost but still could not open the door.
Seeing this, the two monks continued to focus on killing Anthony.
“Who sent you?” Anthony’s voice was hoarse and cold. “Do you know what’s going to happen if you mess with me?”
Who dared to offend Anthony?
No one dared to speak loudly in front of him, yet they were so brazen to try to assassinate him.
Hence, they would pay the price for their assassination attempt!
“We only know that we’re getting paid to kill you!” The monk said and rushed over, attacking Anthony with both fists and feet.
Anthony dodged and landed on the Jesus statue.
As Anne still could not open the door, she could only anxiously hit it, hoping that people outside could hear her.
Before this, gunshots and screams could be heard outside, but it was now very quiet.
Anne wondered what was going on outside…
Soon, Anne could hear some movements at the door, and then the door was pushed open.
Anne took a step back and saw Mia.
“Anne?” Mia looked at her in surprise. Then, she froze when she saw the fighting scene in the church hall. “Mr. Marwood…”
Anne’s eyes remained calm, but her body swayed as she reached out and grabbed Mia’s arm for support. “Go and get someone!”
“Are you okay?” Mia stepped forward to support her. “Mrs. Marwood, I’ll take you out of here first!”
Anne walked out relying on Mia’s strength, turning her head to look at Anthony.
Anthony was already at a disadvantage. If no one came to rescue him, he would definitely end up in a grim situation.
After going down the steps, Anne saw the cars at the door with bullet holes all over.
There were also two of Anthony’s bodyguards lying on the ground and one man wearing a hood, who was surely the three monks’ accomplice.
“Where’s everyone else?” Anne looked around. “Ivan… Ivan! Hurry and find Ivan…”
She pushed Mia.
Mia did not expect this to happen, and she and the other maid hid when they saw the gunfight.
After all, the people on both sides fought fiercely, and the bullets were flying everywhere, so it was easy to injure them accidentally.
“Fiona, go and find Ivan!” Mia urged Fiona, who was approaching them.
“Oh, okay!” Fiona was a little scared, but she still went to find Ivan.
Seeing that Fiona had left, Mia comforted Anne, “Mrs. Marwood, Mr. Marwood will be fine. Ivan and the others will come over soon after they get rid of the bad guys. Let me take you to hide somewhere else first, okay? Otherwise, Mr. Marwood will be sad if you get hurt by accident.”
After she said that, Mia took the powerless Anne to the other side without getting Anne’s agreement, going down the small path down the mountain.
Anne looked back at the church hall, feeling very nervous.
Anthony would be fine, and he would surely hold on until Ivan came over.
He was a strong and fierce devil, and he had always hurt others. So, how could something ever happen to him…
Even though she thought so, she still felt a pain in her chest.
Mia could not care less about Anne’s feelings. All she wanted was to bring Anne to a place where no one was around and kill her.
At that time, Mia would say those villains killed Anne, and she would never be
suspected.
“Where are you taking me?” Anne looked at Mia’s anxious look, completely ignoring how difficult it was for Anne to walk.
“To hide so that no one will find us,” Mia said perfunctorily, focusing on finding a suitable place to kill Anne.
“No need. Let’s not go too far,” Anne disagreed.
“Just a little further down.”
“Mia, I don’t want to go.” Anne tried to break free from Mia’s hand. However, her limp body was no match for Mia. “Mia, let go…ah!”
Chapter 1312
Anne fell weakly to the ground.
Mia immediately went to pull, trying to pull her up. “Mrs. Marwood, we need to go a little further so that no one will notice us.”
Anne sat on the ground. Even though she did not have the strength to get up, Mia, a woman, would not be able to pull her up without her cooperation,
“Mrs. Marwood, you’ll be in danger.” Seeing that Anne was unwilling to cooperate, Mia felt a little anxious. After all, she had sworn to Bianca to kill Anne this time.
Moreover, they were surrounded by mountains and forests. Coupled with the appearance of the villains, it was a great opportunity to kill Anne while taking advantage of the chaos!
“It’s fine here.” Anne sensed that Mia was ill-intentioned, but she pretended not to know. “Let me rest for a while before walking again. I was drugged.”
However, she and Anthony did not eat anything, so how did they get drugged?
Then, she recalled the smoking candles in the church hall.
When Mia heard that Anne was just resting and not unwilling to walk, she held back her eagerness and let Anne rest.
Before three minutes even passed, Mia urged, “Mrs. Marwood, can we go now? Otherwise, we’ll be unable to escape if the bad guys catch up. This road is not hidden. at all.”
“It’s fine. We’ll be much safer if we find Ivan and save Anthony,” Anne said.
Mia became unhappy. If they were safe, how would she kill Anne?
“Mrs. Marwood, let’s go! You’ve rested enough!” Mia grabbed Anne’s arm.
“Ah…” Anne’s arm was in pain from Mia’s pulling. “You…”
“Mrs. Marwood, I’m doing this for your own good. Mr. Marwood will blame me if something happens to you,” Mia found an excuse impatiently, still tugging at Anne’s hand, wishing to drag her away.
Anne’s arm was pulled repeatedly, and she gritted her teeth in pain.
She was even more sure that Mia was up to no good.
Mia was too ambitious!
If Anne really followed Mia down the mountain, she might be pushed down.
The current road was fairly flat, and she could not be pushed.
If she were really dead, it would only be regarded as being killed by bad guys and had nothing to do with Mia.
Anne’s hair stood on end when she thought about it.
“It hurts…” Anne gritted her teeth in pain as her arm was tugged at again.
“Mrs. Marwood, get up now!” Mia ignored Anne’s discomfort and kept pulling her.” Mrs. Marwood… Ah!”
Mia was urging Anne when she suddenly yelled and flew to the side, rolling into the grass.
She was kicked away.
Anne was startled. She looked up and was stunned when she saw who it was.
“Tommy?”
Tommy pulled her up and checked her arm. “Are you hurt?”
“No. Why are you here?” Anne asked.
“I obviously came to take you away.” Tommy picked her up directly.
Anne looked at the grass. “She’s…”
Tommy turned around to see that Mia had passed out.
She was kicked unconscious from behind and would not know who did it.
“Don’t worry. She didn’t see my face,” Tommy said.
“She’s not a good person,” Anne said, “I suddenly thought of some things…”
Her drugged mind suddenly recalled how she was pushed into the river when she
lost her memory.
In that village, no one would kill a stranger just like that.
Unless they knew each other.
Back then, she only told Mia.
Besides her, no one knew her exact location…
“Her aim is obviously Anthony. Won’t it be more interesting to keep her?” After Tommy finished speaking, he carried Anne down the mountain.
A car was already waiting there. After putting Anne in the passenger seat, Tommy got into the driver’s seat. As soon as he stepped on the accelerator, the sports car sped away.
Anne saw as the mountains became farther and farther away, and she said worriedly, “I wonder how Anthony is doing. We should rescue him.”
“How do you go after saving him?” Tommy asked back. “Don’t worry. When I passed by, Ivan was already on his way.”
In fact, Ivan was not on his way as he was injured.
Anthony was being kept busy by the two monks in the church hall.
As his body was affected by the drug, he could not deal with them all at once.
Anthony’s hands were shaking so badly that he could not even hold the gun steadily. At that moment, he could not take the initiative to attack but could only defend passively.
It was not his style to win by delaying time.
The two monks became more confident when they saw that Anthony was cornered.
They aimed to kill Anthony, and it was better for them to end the battle as soon as possible for fear that Anthony’s aid would arrive.
The monk with the knife rushed over and stabbed Anthony in the chest.
Anthony gasped and staggered away, and the knife stabbed directly at the wall behind him. Next, the monk turned the knife and slid it into Anthony’s neck.
Anthony quickly raised his hand, grabbed the monk’s wrist, and tried his best to block the knife.
The blade was getting closer and closer to Anthony’s neck’s main artery, almost touching the skin.
Another monk took the opportunity to attack.
Anthony narrowed his obsidian eyes, and a hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes.
The tip of the knife brushed over Anthony’s neck. Then, he grabbed the monk’s wrist
and pushed the blade toward the other monk rushing over with all his strength.
Swoosh!
The monk grunted, and his body froze as if stuck in place as blood was gushing out from the side of his neck.
Then, he fell to the ground.
The monk holding the knife did not expect this to happen. He was stunned for a while and then attacked Anthony again, swinging his knife desperately at Anthony.
Anthony was not as fast, and he was slashed on his arm.
The redness was not visible on his black suit, but one could tell the wet liquid was slowly spreading.
The monk was like a madman, wanting to kill Anthony’s life.
Anthony caught the timing and grabbed the back of the monk’s neck when the monk attacked again, slamming the monk onto Jesus statue with his strength.
Bang!
The monk’s vision went black, and he lost his grip. It was already too late when he realized that the knife had been taken away.
The monk felt his neck become cold, and his main artery was already slashed. Then, he clutched his neck, still unable to stop gushing blood, and fell to the ground.
“Mr. Marwood!” Ivan and two other bodyguards rushed in, and all were injured at different parts of their bodies, especially Ivan, who had a gunshot wound on his
shoulder.
They saw the dead monks on the ground and found Anthony stained with blood on his hands and body, appearing terrifying as if he just came out from hell.
“Mr. Marwood, are you injured?” Ivan asked anxiously
Anthony’s obsidian eyes were grim, and his breathing was heavy. “Where is she!”
Ivan was puzzled, “Isn’t Mrs. Marwood with you?” Then, realizing something was wrong, he glanced at the two bodyguards and ordered, “Go find her!”
Just as Anthony was about to walk, his body swayed.
“Mr. Marwood!” Ivan hurriedly supported him, ignoring the gunshot wound on his shoulder. “Are you alright?”
“Go find her!” Anthony growled and grimaced. After that, he felt like he was passing
out, but he held back.
Chapter 1313
Ivan found that Anthony’s life was not in danger, and he was only frowning because of the pain. Hence, Ivan could only go and look for Anne.
After all, Anne was the most important person to Anthony.
Just as Anthony was about to move forward, he groaned and knelt on one knee as he felt his strength seemed to be exhausted and the drug’s effect intensified.
Anthony was breathing heavily and trembling.
He gasped for air, trying to force himself to stand, and walked out step by step. Instead of Anne, they found Mia lying unconscious in the grass.
The bodyguard slapped Mia’s face harder. “Wake up! Wake up!”
Ivan poured a bottle of cold mineral water directly on Mia’s face.
“Hmm…” Mia woke up. When she saw the bodyguards, she immediately sat straight and looked around anxiously.
“Where’s Mrs. Marwood?” Ivan asked, “Fiona said you were with Mrs. Marwood.”
Mia did not see Anne and said in a panic, “I-I was with Mrs. Marwood, and then…i was kicked and fainted. I didn’t see the person who kicked me.”
Ivan became suspicious and immediately sensed something was odd. “Why were you and Mrs. Marwood walking along this path?”
“I was afraid there would be bad people, so I wanted to take Mrs. Marwood to hide. As soon as I got here, I was kicked by them and fainted. I don’t know where Mrs. Marwood is…” Mia was telling the truth.
The person kicked her from behind, and she fainted.
“B-But I think I saw Mrs. Marwood being carried away…” Mia was not completely unconscious at the time, and she saw the blurry shadow. “It was a man…”
Ivan frowned, realizing that things were not as simple as they seemed.
After all, if it were those people, they would immediately kill Anne. So, why could they take her away?
Later, they returned to the church hall and found Anthony standing by the side of the car. Due to his lack of strength, he supported himself on the car with one hand, bending over slightly, and he seemed to be pushing himself hard to hold on.
Ivan stepped forward and reported, “Mia said…she saw Mrs. Marwood being carried away.”
Anthony turned around, and his bloodshot black eyes were full of hostility.
Ivan’s blood turned cold, and he added, “Mia didn’t see who it was as the man
attacked her from behind, and she passed out. The other bodyguards who survived are already looking around.”
Anthony panted heavily, and his expression was terrifyingly stern.
Ivan saw Anthony’s tense expression, his obsidian eyes were still, and he was emitting a dangerous and cold aura.
Ivan knew that Anthony was thinking about which man took Anne away…
“Go and check on Lucas.” Anthony narrowed his dark eyes coldly.
“Yes, Mr. Marwood.” Ivan immediately took out his phone and went to the side to make a call. Then, he came back a few minutes later. “Mr. Marwood, the Newman family is going abroad today, and the plane took off half an hour ago. Three flight tickets for three of the Newman family members.”
If that was the case, Lucas was not the person who took Anne away, right?
The sports car was speeding on the winding road at a speed of at least 140 kilometers per hour.
Anne had never been in such a fast car. It was as if Tommy was treating it like a plane, and it seemed that he liked to drive fast for the adrenaline.
“I’ll take you to the logistics company, but you’ll still have to hide in the truck and go to the dock. Otherwise, Anthony will find the clues, and you won’t be able to dream of leaving again.” Tommy drove the fast car intently, his profile tensed.
Anne was shocked and quickly realized what was going on. “Y-You and Lucas planned it together?”
“Of course. He won’t be able to get you out of here alone.”
“…You hired the people in the church, right?” Although Anne was asking him, she was sure of it as it was not Lucas’s character to do so.
“As long as you spend money, many people are willing to risk their lives for you. Money is a good thing.” Tommy smirked, appearing cold-hearted.
Chapter 1314
Anne looked at Tommy, and the hidden trauma in her resurfaced.
Due to the drug in her body, Anne did not even have the strength to clench her fists, and she trembled violently.
At that time, the closest she was to a successful escape was planned by Tommy. Yet, she still fell into Anthony’s hands in the end, which was extremely miserable.
Even though Tommy helped her many times later, she still had trauma…
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Tommy sensed Anne’s defensive gaze and guessed what she was thinking. “Did you recall what happened before?”
Anne did not deny it.
Anthony would immediately throw her into hell if it happened again, and she would never be reborn!
“Once is more than enough for such a thing,” Tommy smirked.
Anne leaned against the seat, and her body trembled and relaxed. Then, she sighed weakly, “What kind of drug is this? When will its effect disappear?”
This sense of powerlessness made her feel insecure.
She could not resist it at all.
“The drug’s effect is relatively strong, and it’ll not disappear quickly. You’ll have to wait at least two hours,” Tommy said, “don’t worry, there are no side effects.”
“Is it the candles we lit during the prayer?” Anne asked her guess.
“Yes. Anthony is too cunning, and he’ll find out if it’s other things,” Tommy answered.
Anne remained quiet.
Her head drooped powerlessly to one side, staring outside the car window in a daze.
If that was the case, the drug’s effect on Anthony would not have subsided yet too.
Nonetheless, even though Anthony was drugged, he was still full of terrifying attack power due to his physique, and Anne still had the scene of him killing the monks in her mind.
What happened after that? What about now? Was Ivan already there, and was the
matter settled?
Moreover, Anthony would surely have noticed she was missing, right?
What was his reaction? Would he think she was taken away by the bad guys or something else…he would not have found out that she left by herself, right…
Ivan was puzzled. Lucas was going abroad while Anne was taken away?
Could it even be a coincidence?
“Contact the airline to see if Lucas is on the plane!” Anthony panted heavily and ordered in a deep voice.
While Ivan was checking with the airline, Anthony called people over, using all the
force units of Luton.
Ivan hung up the call and walked over. “Mr. Marwood, you’re right! Lucas is not on the plane, and there’s no record of him leaving the country.”
“He has a purpose, so why would he do it so openly?” Anthony’s eyes were cold, and his whole body exuded terrifying pressure, causing the temperature in the entire mountain area to drop sharply.
Ivan thought of something and said, “If he uses someone else’s identity to leave, I’m afraid it’ll be difficult to find out…” When he uttered these words, he felt Anthony’s sharp gaze sweeping over. His gaze still made Ivan’s scalp numb even though he was drugged. “I’ll arrange for someone to investigate now! We won’t miss out on any
surveillance!”
Anthony’s obsidian eyes were terrifying. “Anne, you still want to escape? Am I being too gentle to you?”
Anne, who was sitting in the car, shivered for no reason as if cold air was going straight to her tailbone.
Immediately afterward, Tommy’s cell phone rang. He glanced at it and answered.
Anne could not hear what was being said, but she saw Tommy hang up the phone after that.
Chapter 1315
Tommy said calmly, “Anthony was checking on Lucas, and he found that Lucas was on the plane.”
Now that Anthony was fine, Anne was nervous and afraid.
Under the sunlight, her face appeared pale.
“It won’t be easy for him to find out,” Tommy comforted Anne.
However, Anne was not that optimistic.
After all, Anthony was shrewd and unpredictable, so who could guess his thoughts?
The logistics company was more than an hour’s journey away, but it took Tommy only half an hour.
The roads along the way were remote and tricky.
There was no monitoring, not even at the logistics company.
The driver was bribed in advance. He let Anne enter the car, squeezing into one of the boxes inside.
Before the lid was closed, Tommy caressed her head with one hand and said softly,” It takes about an hour and a half to arrive at the dock, but I’ll ask the driver to drive as fast as possible. Bear with it, okay?”
“Aren’t you going?” Anne asked.
“I can’t go, as it’ll arouse Anthony’s suspicion.” Tommy’s eyes were grim. He really wanted to accompany her, but it was better to be cautious.
Anne nodded. “Alright, cover the box!”
“The box is breathable, so don’t be nervous. Just treat it as if you’re taking a break. The drug’s effect will be off when you get out later.”
“Okay.”
Tommy paused for a few seconds before finally closing the lid.
The driver nailed the lid shut, and it looked just like any other box.
After sealing it, Tommy asked outside the box, “How do you feel?”
“It’s nothing but darkness,” Anne said.
“Okay.” Tommy patted the box lightly as if to steady her heart.
After the door of the lorry was closed, the driver was on his way.
Tommy watched the lorry leave, and his phone suddenly vibrated.
He looked at the incoming call and answered it.
The voice on the other side was vague, ‘Sir, Anthony is gone.”
“Are you saying he still managed to escape despite being heavily drugged?” Tommy asked in an eerie tone, and the person on the other end of the phone felt their scalp go numb.
“Anthony was like a madman.”
“I don’t want excuses but a result. Understand?” Tommy said indifferently, “Are you the only one alive?”
“Yes, sir.”
A look of evil flashed in Tommy’s eyes. “You know what to do if you can’t complete the task.”
After that, he directly clutched his phone hard.
When he learned that Anthony checked Lucas, he knew he was not indignant.
What else could he do? Await for the reward?
The man wearing a black hood looked at the phone that was hung up, and he was ready to give up his life.
Even if they survived, those who failed to complete their task would be physically punished to death after returning.
This was the group’s rule, nothing to be afraid of.
Just as he was putting away his phone, he felt someone behind him.
However, he was too slow, and a needle pierced his skin before he could react.
The man swung his hand backward vigorously.
His assailant took two steps back, and he missed.
The man in the hood thought it was Anthony’s subordinate and wanted to continue to move forward. However, his legs suddenly went weak, and he fell before reaching the person.
The person took out his phone and called, “Mr. Lloyd, we caught a suspect.”
“Bring him back to the execution room.”
“Yes, Mr. Lloyd.”
Anne could clearly feel the truck moving.
She huddled in the darkness, hugging her knees, feeling nervous and excited.
Then, she became teary-eyed again because she thought of her children…and it hurt so badly.
