Ch. 1366..1370: Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 1366-1370
Chapter 1366
Whose helicopter was that?
It was at a distance, and it looked surreal.
Then, she heard a crisp clanking noise, like an iron nail falling onto the cement ground.
Before Anne could respond, the glass window panel was blown apart.
“Ah!” Anne fell to the ground.
She looked up and saw the helicopter that got closer and closer to her, her heart racing.
Would this be Tommy’s arrangement?
The office door was opened. Oliver walked in and pulled Anne from the ground. “Let’s go!”
They went out of the office and took the lift to another floor.
“I did not expect to be ambushed. I wonder who is bold enough to do this. Plus, Mr. Marwood’s office was built with bullet-proof glass panels…” Oliver could not fathom it.
Unless someone used some very specific weapon.
He looked at Anne, who was all tensed up, and asked, “Are those people looking for you?”
“I… don’t know.” Anne could only say so.
She was rather shocked.
Tommy would not be so crazy, would he?
There were many floors in the skyscraper, and it was a good hiding spot.
However, the commotion had obviously attracted the attention of the people in the building.
They reached the twelfth floor, and Oliver led her out of the lift into a resting room.
The room only had four walls, without a single window.
“Mr. Marwood will handle that bunch of trash, don’t you worry… As soon as Oliver said it, a bodyguard came in behind him hastily.
“Mr. Marwood’s car was attacked!”
Oliver’s expression turned grim.
Anne’s heart almost stopped. Her face was pale. “Where is Anthony?”
“We could not contact Mr. Marwood at the moment.”
Anne pushed Oliver away and ran out of the room.
Oliver grabbed her. “You cannot go out!”
Anne looked at him, determined. “I want to go find him! Nothing can happen to Anthony!”
Then, she threw Oliver’s hands away and ran out.
Anne reckoned that it was Tommy, she wanted to stop him, and she could not allow him to hurt Anthony.
Anthony was the biological father of the kids, nothing should happen to him.
Oliver and the bodyguard could only follow her, and entered the lift together.
They exited the building, Anne asked hastily, “Where is Anthony’s car?”
“Mrs. Marwood, it is best for you to not go over there, it is too dangerous! If anything happened to you, Mr. Marwood will never forgive us!” the bodyguard said.
Anne looked up, and saw the helicopter slowly landing, the big propeller stirring up the air around.
It looked like a gigantic hawk landed from the above.
Oliver and the bodyguard just took out their guns when they were shot.
“Ah!” They all collapsed to the ground.
Oliver’s body was trembling while he looked at the man that descended from the helicopter, he was wearing a black robe, his face covered in a mask, like the mysterious man who appeared at the ball, and
walked to Anne.
Anne looked at the man who approached her blankly. The next minute, the man reached his hand out to her, and she felt a sharp pain in her arm. Then, her vision turned dark and she passed out.
She fell into the man’s arms and was carried into the helicopter.
Oliver and other bodyguards wanted to save her but could not even move.
The Rolls Loyce was speeding on the highway.
The person driving it was Anthony.
There were still streaks of blood on his forehead, dividing his scary face into two.
Chapter 1367
He was chasing the helicopter like a leopard on its hunt.
There were also helicopters in the sky chasing their target.
It was full coverage combat.
The man who captured Anne was not worried at all.
Right at this moment, a rocket missile was directed at the helicopter. With a loud bang, it was blown up, and a humongous fireball was burning in the sky, then fell right into the ocean.
The Rolls Loyce pulled to a halt. Anthony came out and looked at the scene while heavily breathing, his dark eyes bloodshot. “Who did this? Who did this?”
He kicked the bodyguard who followed and shouted, “Who did this? If she is harmed, I will make sure you all go to hell!”
When he reached the seaside, there were only a few remaining pieces of the helicopter floating on the sea.
He took a motorboat to search, but to no avail, everything was burnt, plus the waves were undulating. They could not tell if the people in the helicopter were washed away or blown apart.
Anthony was going crazy, and he dived right into the sea to search.
The bodyguards next to him were all shocked.
Anne was not certain of how long she was unconscious. She suddenly opened her eyes and realized she was lying on a single bed, surrounded by white walls. There was nothing else besides the bed she
was lying on.
She felt a chill and looked down to realize she was not wearing anything.
“Ah!” she shouted shyly and then curled up in a corner. Her hands hugged herself, to cover up her body.
Why were her clothes stripped away?
What was happening? What was this?
One of the white walls suddenly opened up.
Anne looked up at the man who entered. He was wearing a long black robe with a cape, and a mask on his face. He strode in.
There were no winds in the room but his cape still billowed as though wind gushed through.
This was the man that made her unconscious, from the helicopter.
Anne hugged herself even tighter now.
She looked at the man, with her guard up, her face was expressing fury and anxiety. “Are you… Are you the one who did this to me? Give me my clothes back!”
The man sat down by the side of the bed. The bed only sunk a little, and did not produce any noise.
The eyes underneath the mask were scanning her, inch by inch.
Anne shivered, as she almost curled herself into a ball.
Would the man do anything to her?
The door opened again, a woman with no expression on her face entered with some clothes in her hand.
There was a t-shirt, a pair of slacks, and undergarments.
Anne looked at the neatly folded clothes in front of her, and then said, “Don’t look. Turn around.”
“You can choose not to put it on.” The man’s voice sounded like a machine.
Of course Anne would not choose not to wear anything!
She pondered for a brief moment, then grabbed the clothes, and put them on with her back turned. Her hands were trembling.
Even if she had her back facing him, she could still feel the man’s eyes on her, that was terrifying!
After putting on the clothes, Anne finally felt slightly more secure.
She turned around, and looked at the man who was not moving at all, and asked, “Who are you, why did you capture me?”
“You are the person who killed Lilian.” The man’s voice was firm.
Anne was stunned.
Lilian… was indeed killed by her, but she only did it in defense, and it was not a crime.
“Since you killed her, then you should replace her role.” The man reached out and touched her face.
The cold temperature from the hand made Anne flinch. She frowned and avoided the hand.
She looked at the hand and realized it was covered in gloves that were nude in color. She would have almost missed it if she did not look at it up close.
“What did Lilian do? I cannot replace her. You need to let me go!” Anne said.
The man stood up, stretched both his arms wide, and said, “You are now here, where you need to meet my expectations before you can leave.”
Chapter 1368
Anne stood up. “I cannot stay here, I have my home, I am not the same as Lilian. My husband is Anthony Marwood. He is powerful. If you annoy him, you will end up badly. So, it is better for you to let me go!”
The man turned around and looked at her, intrigued. “Are you threatening me? Too bad I cannot fulfill your wish.”
Anne frowned, the eyes behind the mask were like an emotionless robot, and it looked extra ruthless under the white light.
She felt like she had said something that annoyed him.
“However… I still need to leave.”
The man approached her and said, “Why do you need to go back? As far as I know, you are unhappy with Anthony, and you want to run away. Isn’t this good? You can become mine, and no one will bully you.”
Anne tried to calm herself down. “What is your intention? Just because… I killed Lilian? Should you investigate this again? Lilian could be killed by someone else, yes, someone else!”
“Who?”
“Erm… Tommy Marwood, I remember it vividly. It was Tommy Marwood!” Anne said with confidence.
She apologized to Tommy in her mind.
She guessed she had no choice. The person did not seem to be afraid of Anthony. Since Tommy was lower profile than Anthony, she figured that perhaps someone mysterious like him could do the trick.
The robed guy was silent.
“It was Tommy Marwood. You can get him to replace Lilian.”
“I don’t need a man.” The man flapped his cape, and a gush of cold wind followed.
Anne took a step back subconsciously. She looked at the tall man, feeling exasperated.
However, looking at this man, she could not help but find him familiar.
She frowned, stared at him, and said tentatively, “Are you… Brother?”
The eyes behind the mask did not blink. They looked straight at her, cold and unfamiliar.
Anne swallowed her saliva, was he not?
She thought he was, because Tommy said he would bring her away from Anthony.
“Or are you… someone that my brother employed?”
“Come,” the robed guy ordered.
The white door opened again, and a man and a woman entered. They grabbed Anne and dragged her out.
“What? Where are you bringing me to! If you are, then you are. If you aren’t, then you aren’t! Hey! Let me go!
Anne was tossed into a swimming pool, she did not know how to swim and sank right to the bottom like a giant rock.
“Hmm!”
Her body was engulfed by the water, and the water started to fill up in her through every opening on her
body.
“Hmm!” Anne struggled under water. She toppled over to one side and lost her balance. She could not control her body, and was struggling desperately.
Just when she was gulping on the pool water, a hand grabbed her hair, and dragged her out.
“Ah!” Anne was dragged out of the water, she immediately felt her breathing unobstructed. She breathed in the oxygen in the air greedily, that even her lungs were feeling painful at the action.
She was panting, when her head was pressed into the water again.
“Hmm!” Her entire head was submerged in the water.
Anne’s feet were kicking in the water, when she was about to lose all her breath, her head was lifted up again.
“Ah… Ah… Ah…” Anne felt so terrible that she could die.
She was soaked wet, her clothes were sticking right onto her body, and her chest was pumping up and down, gulping for air.
She finally found her voice again. “I’m sorry, I made a mistake. You are not Tommy…”
How would they treat her this way if Tommy employed them?
She quickly apologized, hoping they would not submerge her in the water again.
She was afraid of water and this was the worst torture in the world for her.
However, the next second, her head was submerged in the water again.
Someone then knocked out Anne.
When she was awake again, she was in a space that looked like a community dorm room.
It reminded her of the dorm during her college days, except there were only six bunk beds back then, and now there were tens of them.
Chapter 1369
There was no one else other than her.
Finally, in the afternoon, some people finally entered the room.
They were all women, wearing basic tank tops and shorts, revealing their long legs, as they returned to each of their beds.
Anne’s presence was invisible to them.
They were wearing the same robotic emotionless expression on their faces.
As soon as they got back, they climbed into their beds and dozed off.
Anne did not know what was going on. She found it creepy and wanted to leave.
However, when she opened the door, two guns were immediately pointed at her head, as though warning her that she would be shot if she took one more step forward.
“Get the f*ck inside. If you come out again, I will pull the trigger!” A buff man with tattoos on his arms said. His arms were thicker than her waist.
He could definitely knock her out with just a punch and, of course, easily with the gun.
Anne backed away and immediately closed the door.
She distanced herself from the door.
She looked up and saw a familiar painting on the wall.
She thought they resembled the tattoo on Lilian.
Anne turned around and noticed that all women had a complex circular pattern printed on their arms, like some kind of symbol.
“Are you trying to escape?”
Anne was shocked. She turned and saw a woman who was not asleep. She was sitting on the bed watching her, and her expression was distant.
“You should give up.”
“Where am I?” Anne asked.
“This is a deserted island.”
“Why are you here?” Anne asked.
The woman looked at her. “We are all abducted here, and I think you must be too. However, you look like you don’t know anything.”
“They said I am here to replace Lilian. Do you know Lilian?”
The woman looked at her, surprised. She sized her up. Anne looked innocent, naive, and weak, like a
flower that had just budded and had not experienced any weather. She could not fathom why she was abducted here.
Anne somehow felt that this woman despised her.
Why was she being looked down upon for?
“This is the headquarters of the assassins. Lilian was the only one that lived from the last batch of assassins. In our current batch, there will also be only one person who could live.”
Anne roughly understood the model of the organization. It seemed that they aimed to produce the best assassin.
There will always be someone better than you.
This was a cruel system. The price to pay was the lives.
Anne was shocked, and her face went pale.
Why was she abducted by such an organization? What was her talent to be captured here? She found it to be unbelievable!
To replace Lilian?
They must be kidding.
She thought she looked more like the first one to die!
Just solely because… she killed Lilian?
The woman had already laid down.
Anne still said politely, “Thank you for telling me.”
The woman did not respond and still kept her back facing her.
Anne climbed into the bed and lay down. The woman’s bed was next to hers. She looked cold and distant, but she guessed she was not a bad person.
Otherwise, why would she tell her where she was?
Anne did not know when she had fallen asleep. Suddenly, some cracking noises were heard, and everyone sprang up from their beds.
Someone even pulled out their swords, ready to attack.
Chapter 1370
‘Assemble!”
Everyone immediately ran out of the door. Anne was still stunned, and the woman reminded her, “Go.”
Anne then followed mindlessly like an idiot.
They all stood in a row.
The armed muscular man dragged two corpses out to the front.
“This is the consequence of trying to escape! In here! Only the winners live! Otherwise, you will die!” the muscular man roared.
The night was dark. There were only some lights on the island at a distance. There were still hours to go until sunrise.
Anne looked at the women’s corpses under the dim light, her heart beating fast.
If this were an island, then unless she could get away in a boat, there would be next to no chances for her to leave this place.
Anne was feeling heavy and hopeless.
“Now start the training, run!”
The person leading started running, and the people behind followed.
The muscular man roared, “Faster!”
Physical fitness was the first step in training to be an assassin.
Anne felt that this world had gone crazy.
More accurately, her life was too twisted.
She was abducted to join the assassin’s organization! She was only an ordinary mother to three kids!
They ran around the island and were not sure how many kilometers they had covered.
Anne was already panting by the second kilometer.
She did not have the stamina for it.
However, the helicopter was hovering above them. The muscular man in it, with a gun in his hand, pointed at them, urging them to run faster.
Anne was trapped here being tortured while Anthony was going crazy searching for her.
He had exhausted all his influence and connections to conduct the search in the ocean.
Anthony stood before the motorboat and looked at the surface of the sea, so afraid to miss one single
clue.
His dark eyes were bloodshot, as though he was being possessed.
The sky turned dark again, and someone went onto the motorboat. “Mr. Marwood, the situation does not look too optimistic at the moment. We have very little possibility of finding them.”
Anthony’s face turned slowly around, his dark eyes so dead, like they belonged to an undead.
He then suddenly grabbed the person by his collar. “Not optimistic? Now I will make your life look like it is not optimistic!”
He then flung his arm out, and the person was thrown out of the boat and dropped into the ocean.
Soon, he floated to the surface of the water.
Even though he was not dead, he experienced the fear and trauma of a near-death.
He immediately swam back to the motorboat and continued the search.
Even if everyone knew clearly that there was no possibility for Anne to survive it, as long as Anthony did not say stop, they would have to continue the search!
Anthony felt his heart aching. He could not stand his body shaking and then toppled over to the front.
He used one hand to support himself on the banister, the veins on his temples bulging all the way down his throat. They looked like they were going to explode any minute soon.
‘I will find you!’
‘Nothing can happen to you!’
‘You don’t dare to let anything happen to you!’
The search continued for half a month straight, and everyone almost gave up.
“Continue the search! Search! If you can’t find her, you will all die together with her!” Anthony roared on the motorboard like a mad man. No one dared to say a word, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
How could they not find her?
Anne will be fine. She will…
He was in agony, he could not breathe. He felt like someone was pinching his heart all the time, making him lose his mind and lose control of himself!
