Ch. 1341..1345: Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 1341-1345

Chapter 1341

Lucas asked, “Isn’t it boring to stay here all the time? You may be willing to stay, but I’m not.”

Anne turned her face away, watching the yacht that was getting closer and closer, and accepted Lucas’s invitation.

Ivan and his group approached the small house.

However, they stopped not far away.

They were afraid that approaching it would alert Anne and give her a chance to escape.

If they could not catch her by then, they were afraid they would have to answer Mr. Marwood.

The tall, muscular, and professional thugs Ivan hired with money were from his own country.

“We block all the exits of the house, and no one is allowed to come out.

After speaking, the others immediately dispersed.

However, Ivan overlooked one point: the entire mountainous area was being monitored by Tommy’s drone.

Even if they were not close to the house, they would be detected.

Lucas took Anne’s hand and boarded the yacht.

There was only one driver on the yacht, and they would not be disturbed.

Just as he got on the boat, Lucas’s cell phone rang.

He glanced at the caller, who turned out to be Tommy, and answered, “I’m taking Anne out to sea and will be back in the afternoon.”

“Don’t come back. Anthony’s men are approaching the house.” Tommy’s voice was cold.

“It can’t be because of me.” Lucas frowned, his eyes flashing sharply.

His route was a secret. How could they find out about it?

Tommy urged, “Of course, it’s you. As soon as you come, they show up. Hurry up!”

Without a word, Lucas hurried down to the cockpit.

She stood there, not knowing what was happening.

Could it be that Anthony is here?

But Tommy said it was very safe here!

She thought about what Lucas had said on the phone earlier. Was someone following Lucas?

The yacht started and began sailing toward the sea.

Then Lucas came back up, and Anne asked, “What’s wrong? Did Anthony come after you?”

Seeing her fear, Lucas held her hand tightly and said, “Don’t be afraid. Anthony’s people found our location, but Tommy’s drone detected them. Even if they entered the house, they would only find it empty. Fortunately, we have the yacht and can leave here immediately.”

Anne retracted her hand, turned around, and sat down on the sofa, her face turning pale with fear.

Her fingers on her knees were trembling.

“Didn’t you say it was safe here? How were we found?” Anne asked uneasily.

“They must have followed me, but I can’t figure it out how,” Lucas said.

Only his parents knew he was here.

Even if Ivan found out that he had not left the house, he should have searched his home instead of following him here.

How did they know his route?

He did not find any suspicious person following him.

“I was exposed,” Lucas said.

Anne bit her lips and covered her face with her hands. “What should we do now? Anthony will definitely come after us…”

Lucas squatted down in front of her, grabbed her hand, and looked at her with a calm. and steady gaze. “I will help you until you completely get away from Anthony.”

Anne was really scared.

Lucas in front of her was like a lifeline for her. She wanted to cling to it but was afraid

that she would drag him down with her.

“Principal, find a chance to get off the boat, don’t stay with me. I don’t want to hurt you,” Anne said anxiously, tears trembling in her eyes.

Lucas touched her face and said, “It’s okay, trust me, everything will be fine.”

Ivan led his people to block off the small house and began to close in.

Just as they arrived at the door, a drone, suspended above, said in a mechanical voice, “Trespasser, die!”

Chapter 1342

Ivan’s expression was shocked, and he yelled, “Get out of the way!”

As soon as the roar was over, the weapon loaded in the drone started to launch and the bullets shot straight at them.

“Argh!”

The bodyguard next to him fell to the ground and died on the spot.

Ivan was the most agile and quickly dived behind a car for cover. There was no time to catch his breath, let alone draw his gun.

When he looked up, he saw another drone pointing at him.

Ivan rolled and dodged again, and the bullets slammed into the car.

He jumped into the house, looking for a place to take cover.

He felt a burning pain in his arm.

Upon closer inspection, he saw that his clothes were torn by bullets, and blood was seeping from the wound.

However, it was only a scratch.

Fortunately, he moved quickly. Otherwise, he would have died on the spot like the other bodyguards.

It was clear that the other bodyguards must have been attacked as well.

He did not know if the people he brought from Luton were still alive.

He took out his gun and looked around vigilantly, paying attention to both the movement of the drone and the possible presence of Anne.

However, it seemed that Anne and her people had moved their positions.

Despite being so careful, he was still discovered.

The advanced drones here surprised him, which was why he was caught off guard.

This was a big mistake.

If he could not find anyone, the mission would fail!

Ivan slowed down his breathing, and all he could hear was silence.

Then, he heard a faint sound like a mosquito’s moan coming from the upper left corner.

Ivan quickly rolled over, knelt down on one knee, and raised his gun to shoot.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

He hit the drone with precision.

The drone was unable to dodge in time and fell straight to the ground.

Another drone arrived and began firing at Ivan.

Ivan dodged and used any available furniture as cover, running up the stairs and hiding behind the guardrail on the second floor.

The bullets chased him all the way, destroying any exquisite and luxurious decorations in their path.

Debris was scattered everywhere.

Ivan ran away from the small house quickly.

Remaining here will result in certain death.

After fleeing from the small house and running away, only Ivan and two other bodyguards from Luton were left alive; everyone else had died.

Ivan had also sustained multiple bullet wounds.

Ivan informed Anthony of the events that had occurred while they were in the car.

Anthony tightened his grip on the phone, causing the veins on the back of his hand to bulge.

Ivan suggested, “There are people living in the house, but we don’t know who they are. We should be prepared before approaching. Do you want to check who owns the house? Lucas came here secretly, so it’s unlikely to be his house.”

“Did you pay attention to the location and surroundings of the house when you approached it?” Anthony asked in a menacing, cold voice.

“Yes,” Ivan replied.

“The sea is three kilometers away from the house,” Anthony said as he zoomed in and out on a map on his computer.

Ivan’s body froze as he realized the implications of this information. “I’ll arrange for a helicopter to chase after him right away,” he said.

“That won’t be necessary,” Anthony said.

Ivan was puzzled by this response.

“I have a more interesting way to make her come back obediently,” Anthony added.

After the call ended, Ivan ignored his injuries and immediately turned the car toward a certain destination.

Chapter 1343

It must be noted that Mr. Marwood has a deep understanding of human nature and knows exactly how to exploit its weaknesses!

The yacht has sailed far from the mountainous region where the house was located.

However, Anne still could not shake the feeling of unease.

Even Lucas, who was with her, felt that the situation was a bit serious.

However, Lucas did not show his own unease, as Anne was already very nervous and scared, and he did not want to make things worse.

Suddenly, a drone appeared.

The expressions on Lucas and Anne’s faces changed slightly.

Anne asked anxiously, “Has anyone left the yacht?”

“Knowing our location, Anthony will definitely not let us go. You can’t go back to that place. You’ll have to change your plans. I want your boat to follow me,” Tommy said, his voice sounding robotic through the drone.

“Will I be taken back to Luton?” Anne asked again.

The drone remained silent.

This made Anne’s face turn even paler, and her lips began to tremble.

Lucas frowned and said, “If you have something to say, then speak up.”

“Based on what I know about Anthony, he should be on a plane heading here by now, “Tommy said.

Anne’s body became weak, and she staggered, falling backward.

Lucas quickly supported her slender back, his eyes tense with concern.

“Lucas, I suggest you separate from Anne and return to your house. You still have to show up,” Tommy suggested.

However, Lucas disagreed, “You want me to leave her alone?”

“If you stay with her, you’ll only end up causing her more harm. Have you forgotten that you were the one who caused Anne’s injuries?” Tommy said mercilessly.

Lucas tightly pursed his lips and said nothing.

Anne could not help speaking up for him. She could not control the trembling in her voice as she said, “It’s clear that Anthony has a problem, and he’s the one who hurt me!”

“Anne, if Anthony comes here, the matter will not be as easy to resolve as it is now. You know what kind of man he is,” Tommy reminded her.

Anne’s eyes became hot with tears, and she began to cry.

“The principal can’t go back, and his parents can’t stay in their original house; they’ll be threatened by Anthony. Hurry up and call your parents and tell them to hide. Anthony is capable of doing anything!” Anne said as she grabbed Lucas’s sleeve.

Before Lucas could respond, his cell phone rang.

It was a text message notification.

It rang three times in a row.

Lucas took out his mobile phone and, upon opening the text message, he was shocked.

Anne, who was next to him, also saw the message and was so frightened that she could not catch her breath.

The drone flew directly above them and took photos that were sent to Lucas’s phone.

In the photos, the Newmans were forced to kneel on the ground with guns pointed at their heads.

He recognized Ivan, one of Anthony’s bodyguards, in the photos.

Anne was particularly struck by this realization.

She slumped down on the sofa in despair, knowing that there was no way out.

Lucas stood frozen, holding his phone and looking at the three photos of his parents being threatened with their lives.

The photos were a warning that if Lucas did not show up with Anne, the Newman family and his wife would be killed.

Lucas gripped the phone tightly, his hands shaking.

“It seems we were still one step too late,” Tommy said.

Anne covered her face with her hands, tears streaming through her fingers, and said hoarsely, “I’ll go back…”

“You can’t go back!” Lucas said in a rough voice.

“I don’t want you to watch your parents die!”

“Anthony won’t do anything. He’s just trying to force us to show up,” Lucas replied.

“He will do it!” Anne insisted.

She knew exactly what kind of person Anthony was.

He was ruthless to his own men. How could she expect him to be lenient to the Newman family, whom he had long disliked?

Anne raised her head, looking sad but determined. “Principal, I already feel very guilty about the Newman family. If something happened to your parents because of me, I wouldn’t be able to make up for it even if I died. I thought I had a glimmer of hope, but…I’m afraid I can only die at Anthony’s hands in this life…” She looked up at the drone and said, “Brother, let’s go back!”

 

Chapter 1344

“Have you made your decision?” Tommy said in a low voice.

“…Yes,” Anne said, lowering her gaze.

Anthony could threaten anyone he wanted to achieve his goals, knowing her location.

He could even threaten her with the lives of her children… It made her heart ache at the thought.

Tommy did not say anything as the drone flew out and went to the cockpit below.

This was to inform the driver to change the route.

Anne sat on the sofa motionless, her eyes blank.

Lucas did not do anything either.

It was a difficult situation, as there was not a clear solution.

If Lucas does not go back, his parents will be killed.

He and Anne will have to live with the guilt for the rest of their lives.

However, the thought of sacrificing Anne’s freedom caused Lucas great distress.

He stepped forward and pressed Anne’s head against his chest, his voice hoarse as he said, “I’ll go back and face everything. You leave.”

Anne shook her head in his arms. “It’s useless… Principal. My freedom is limited, we… we should stop here. I’ll find a way to make Anthony return the Pinnacle Academy to the Newman family. From now on, don’t get close to me…”

Lucas looked extremely depressed.

He liked Anne, and he would be willing to give up everything for her.

However, fate seemed to be against them time and time again.

It was all because of that mad dog Anthony, who bites anyone he sees!

Lucas could not ignore his family…

The closer they got to Lucas’s residence, the more flustered Anne became.

She did not know what would happen to her after meeting Anthony.

Death was not the worst thing; living was worse than death…

As soon as the car arrived at the door of the house, it was surrounded by bodyguards who pointed their guns at them, the black muzzles causing panic.

Anne and Lucas got out of the car and walked into the house.

As soon as they entered the hall, they were locked in the gaze of those sharp black eyes full of hostility, as if they were staring at prey about to be captured and torn apart.

Anne was terrified, her legs weakening as she turned her stinging pupils away, looking at the Newman family couple who was still kneeling on the ground with guns pointed at them.

The Newman family couple saw the hidden displeasure on her face.

Lucas stepped forward, standing in front of his parents and pointing the gun at Anthony.

“Do you think I’m afraid to shoot?” Anthony’s voice became gloomy as he stood up and took the gun in the bodyguard’s hand, loading it and pointing it at Lucas.

Anne was so frightened that her voice trembled as she said, “No! I’m already here. What else do you want?”

Anthony’s face was slightly tilted, his clear jawline cold and sharp as he said, “You don’t seem to have any remorse for escaping?”

Tears trembled in Anne’s eyes as she said, “You forced me. I just wanted to live. What’s wrong with that? But if you hadn’t treated me like that, I wouldn’t have left my child. Don’t you think there’s something wrong with you? Can’t I feel better living outside? Anthony, don’t hurt anyone anymore. Let’s go back to Luton!”

Anthony tightened his grip on the gun, placing his index finger on the trigger as he said, “You’re telling me Lucas going to the apartment to have a private meeting with you was acceptable behavior?”

Anthony looked at Lucas with eyes full of madness and no trace of warmth.

He could pull the trigger at any moment.

Tears fell from Anne’s eyes as she said weakly and palely, “I have nothing to do with him. I have already explained everything that needs explaining. No matter how many times I explain it, if you don’t believe me, it will be useless…”

Lucas could not take it anymore and said, “I was worried about her and entered your apartment rashly. I apologize for this matter. But I have already paid the price, haven’t I?”

“Then what about this time?” Anthony’s black eyes were dark and cold. “Running away with other men now. You really know how to trigger me, don’t you?”

Anthony’s finger rested on the trigger, pulling it inward slightly.

Anne was so frightened that her face turned pale, and her soul seemed to leave her body.

Joanne said eagerly, “You promised me that you would spare the Newman family, so you should spare my son. Anne has already returned to you, hasn’t she?”

Lucas was stunned.

The meaning of those words was clear, which solved Anne’s confusion.

It turned out that Anthony found her because the Newman family revealed it to Anthony and made a deal behind the scenes.

Anne lowered her gaze slightly. She did not blame them.

As Lucas’s parents, it’s normal to have such thoughts.

They did not like her, and with Pinnacle Academy gone, it was not surprising they did this.

She just did not expect to be exposed like this…

The tension in the air was strained to the breaking point.

Every breath was difficult as if any moment could be their last.

At that moment, Anthony’s expression became serious, and he fired a shot!

“Ah!” Anne trembled in fright and closed her eyes.
