Ch. 1536..1540: Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 1536-1540

Chapter 1536

Anthony was still the same. How would such a person change for a woman?

He did not serve her.

Therefore, what if he could drag Anthony down from his high horse? There must be countless people who wished to trample over him.

After dinner, the family of five went for a stroll.

The triplets were running around the playground and having a fun time.

Anthony hugged Anne from behind and his thin lips bit her sensitive ear gently.

Anne shuddered and looked at the children in the distance with concern. “The children are

here…”

“Do I have to care about their feelings when I’m just hugging my wife? Hmm?” Anthony’s voice was deep and husky.

Anne looked uncomfortable. He was simply being domineeringly unreasonable.

“Let’s go back to the room.” Anthony wrapped his arm around her slender waist and brought her away.

“But…” Anne wanted to resist, but she was still forcibly dragged away by Anthony.

As soon as they entered the hallway, Anthony’s phone vibrated.

He glanced at it and answered it. It was Oliver who called.

“It’s work. I’ll go to the study. Go back to the room and wait for me there.”

Anne looked at his back as he went to the study, and her face was flushed as she thought, Why do I have to go to the room to wait for you?‘

She knew he was up to something naughty as soon as she heard it.

Was such a matter happening too frequently?

However, Anthony never listened to her refusal at all. He would simply go overboard after he kept kissing her. In the end, she would end up enduring his strong and powerful way of having her.

Anne felt this could not go on. Anthony must control himself a little.

Therefore, to avoid having the chance of them facing each other with nothing on, the first thing she did after she returned to the room was to quickly take a shower.

After taking a shower, she changed into conservative pajamas and sat on the couch to watch the television.

When Anthony entered the room, he saw Anne sitting there, so he walked up to her, pinched her chin, and kissed her on her little lips. “So obedient?”

The gaze from his black eyes was dangerous. Anne could not breathe properly being looked at by him. She then pulled his hand away a little. “Control yourself.”

“Why?”

Anne found it hard to understand his confusion. “Be careful or your body won’t be able to

handle it.”

Anthony raised his eyebrows sexily. “Are you questioning my ability?”

“I…don’t mean it like that…” Anne’s face was burning. “In any case, no.”

Anthony straightened his back without saying anything, then he turned around and went to the bathroom.

Anne let out a sigh of relief. She did not know what Anthony was thinking. Did she actually succeed in rejecting him?

She went to bed with a nervous feeling. Anthony really did not do anything anymore. He only hugged her to sleep.

“Is there any news about Tommy?”

“No.”

“Why would he not make any moves anymore?” asked Anne.

He has given up? That was not quite like Tommy’s style.

He absolutely would not give up before he reached his goal.

“Don’t go out alone in the future.” Anthony kissed her forehead.

“It’s fine. I’m not scared.”

“I’m scared.”

Anne could not help but raise her head when she heard Anthony showing his weakness with his words. When she met the pair of deep and dark black eyes, her heart could not help but flutter.

Was there also a time when this powerful man was also scared?

His rough fingers stroked the delicate skin on her face gently. “You can go out. I will

arrange for someone to follow you. You’re not allowed to refuse.”

Anne felt helpless. This was probably already the best compromise Anthony could make…

This man’s issue with his possessiveness could not be changed in this life.

She helplessly nodded and agreed.

At midnight, the phone on the nightstand rang. It was a text, and it was Anne’s phone.

Anthony, who was highly alert, opened his black eyes, and like the eyes of a beast at night, they were emitting dim light.

He reached out his hand to grab the phone, unlocked it, and read the text. [Are you free at noon tomorrow? Let’s have lunch together.]

Who was it?

She did not save the number. Was it because she could not do it in time or did she do it on purpose instead?

Anthony’s black eyes became deep and sharp.

 

Chapter 1537

With a few taps with his fingers, he replied, [Alright.]

As soon as he sent it, the person in his arms moved but did not wake up.

It seemed like she was trying to find a comfortable position to sleep in, so she felt Anthony’s arms a little.

The domineering Anthony locked her in his arms once again.

Anne did not move again. She just continued sleeping.

Anthony put the phone back on the nightstand, then he lifted Anne’s serene little face just a little as she slept soundly while he gazed deeply with his black eyes.

‘You’re sleeping so defenselessly. Are you sure you’re an assassin? But who is the person who’s looking for you? Who have you contacted behind my back?’

Just as Anne was sound asleep, she suddenly started having a dream.

Also, it was the kind of dream that made her cheek flush and her heart pound–Anthony kept kissing her, and the more he kissed, the more passionate it got.

Perhaps a person would be more shameless when in dreamland.

She accepted the man’s recklessness very easily, so much so that she even became very proactive and was looking forward to it very much.

Suddenly, her body went from shaking just a little to shaking very aggressively.

As her body was trembling violently, she gradually became more conscious. The ceiling was replaced at Anthony’s face, and Anne’s pupil shook a little.

She realized that she was not having a dream at all.

“You…just now…” As Anne saw a big patch of water stain on his thin lips, her face got even redder and it was burning up.

“Does it feel good?” Anthony’s voice was husky and dangerous.

Anne could only pant. She absolutely could not utter a word at all.

Especially when she realized how she reacted with enjoyment because she thought it was a dream, she desperately wanted to bury herself in a hole due to embarrassment.

Just as she turned her face away, Anthony grabbed her jaw steadily with one hand, and he pressed his thin lips against her. “You should be used to this kind of thing. Hmm?”

This kind of sneaky attack in the middle of the night?

As Anne opened her little mouth and before she was able to make a sound, her mouth was tightly blocked.

This ‘dream‘ got more and more erotic…

Because of that, Anne could not even wake up on time at all.

When she opened her eyes again, it was already quite late.

There was not a sense of warmth under the covers next to her, which meant that Anthony had gotten out of bed a long time ago.

She grabbed her phone from the nightstand. It was ten minutes to eleven in the morning.

There were no texts or missed calls.

Anne laid back down again after taking a look at her phone. She felt like her entire body was about to fall apart.

Anthony was like a bottomless hole that could never be filled, and he turned her into a weak assassin.

He was too scary.

After she washed up, she changed into her loungewear and went downstairs.

Hayden walked up to her. “Mrs. Marwood, Mr. Marwood has gone to the company.”

“When did he leave?”

“Ten in the morning,” said Hayden.

Anne thought that it was not that early either.

She thought that Anthony would stay home again. She guessed there must be something important to handle at the company.

“Mrs. Marwood, go have a little something to fill your stomach. Otherwise, your stomach will get upset,” Hayden reminded.

“Alright.”

Anne also felt her stomach was empty. All the things that she had eaten last night had been completely used up.

Once she thought of Anthony’s lack of restraint, her face began to burn up again.

She decided she would not let Anthony act like that anymore…

Lucas was sitting in the restaurant and waiting for her, and he lifted his wrist to look at the time every now and then.

He was looking very much forward to having lunch with Anne that even his heart was fluttering.

It was until he saw the man walking toward him that his expression changed calmly.

As soon as Anthony, who has a tall figure and was in a sharp suit, appeared, the oppressive air to him affected every single person, making them subconsciously breathe slower.

After he took a seat, Anthony leaned his body back a little. He looked indifferently and sharply at Lucas with his black eyes, and he has a faint hostility to him.

Chapter 1538

Lucas’ emotions recovered very quickly. He did not look that surprised on the surface.

“It’s been a long time, Mr. Marwood,” he greeted him calmly.

He would not let their hostile relationship show on the surface and tear into him. It would look very bad on the two of them if he did that in broad daylight.

“You’re very disappointed, aren’t you?” Anthony said coldly, “Lucas, never mind that you’ve returned to the country, but you contacted my wife behind my back. Are you provoking me?

“You’re overthinking it. Anne and I are friends. We bumped into each other on the street, so we agreed to grab lunch sometime. It’s no big deal. You’re too uptight,” said Lucas.

Anthony’s face was as cold as frost. “Uptight? You’re an educator, but you don’t even know what’s the right thing to say?”

“I knew it was you who called when I was having coffee with Anne yesterday. I left beforehand because I thought it was better to have one less trouble. I didn’t expect that I still couldn’t avoid it.” Lucas’ gaze was hard to figure out. “You’re still the same as before. You still like to control Anne.”

Anthony’s expression was cold and sharp. “We don’t need an outsider like you to meddle

with this.”

Lucas suddenly asked, “Anthony, do you like Anne?”

Anthony’s black eyes darkened. “You’re out of line.”

“Am I? Since you’re here, let’s have a talk in a calm manner.” Lucas smiled faintly. “You actually do like her, don’t you? You like her body and her personality, but…that doesn’t include love.”

Anthony has a cold and vicious air to him. “How do you know that?”

“Haven’t you heard such a saying? Loving is having self-control but liking is wanting to possess the person. You belonged to the latter. Therefore, when you no longer find it fresh, Anne’s existence would no longer be important. Other women would appear by your side. By then, Anne would be very pitiful, and that would affect the triplets’ development. The consequences would be very severe.”

Anthony’s gaze was icy but he did not say anything.

“On the other hand, does Anne like you?” Lucas asked again, “If it wasn’t for the three children, she absolutely wouldn’t have appeared by your side. She did everything because

she had no choice. Anthony, you, too, know this very well, don’t you?”

Anthony’s hands, which were on his lap, were clenched into fists as if his fingers were spasming, and they trembied a little.

However, no emotions were showing on his face at all.

“If you truly love her, you should let her go and let her meet the children whenever she wants, instead of trapping her, who’s forcing herself to compromise, by your side,” said Lucas.

“How do you know that she’s forcing herself to compromise? You were right. Only I know best if she was willing or not.” Anthony stood up. “Don’t contact her in private anymore in the future or I’ll completely destroy you.”

Upon saying that, he turned around and left.

Lucas’ expression darkened.

“Oh, yes.” Anthony stopped in his tracks. “She’s my wife. You should address her as Mrs. Marwood.”

Then, he walked off.

Lucas’ expression looked extremely terrible, and he was breathing hard, but he could only restrain himself.

He was not in a hurry. Anthony would lead himself to his own grave one day.

Besides, judging from what Anthony had said earlier, he would not be completely indifferent, would he?

Anthony walked out of the restaurant, got into the car, and loosened his tie by pulling it forcefully. His expression was cold, which made the entire car feel as cold as ice.

The driver’s back was so straightened as he was tensed up.

Indeed, Lucas’ words have affected him.

Anne did it for the children. She did everything for the children!

So what? No matter what, she was his wife. She would always be his wife in this life!

Who did Lucas think he is?

His thoughts were very domineering, but…his chest felt very tight and he could not breathe.

The veins on his forehead were popping and twisted.

Anne was playing with her phone while sitting on the couch. Her legs were bare and curled up. A little bit of light from outside was shining in. It was a leisurely time.

Her screen flashed a little. Someone was calling her.

Chapter 1539

It was Lucia who was calling.

Anne was frozen. She did not know if she should answer it or not.

She was reluctant deep down.

Because even if she did not answer her call, she already knew what she was going to say.

However, if she did not answer it, she would feel bad.

After hesitating, she answered the call, “Lucia, I’m occupied today, so I won’t be going over. You’ll be fine, right?”

“It’s fine. How could I ask you to come over every day? I’m already very happy for you to be able to visit me occasionally.” She could still tell from Lucia’s voice that she was disappointed.

Anne pretended that she did not notice Lucia was putting on a forced smile, and said, Have a good rest then. Don’t think about anything.”

“Alright. Have you found the person who harmed me yet?”

“It won’t be so soon. Tommy should be in hiding. We also haven’t found the hideout for the group either. But we will find it.”

“I believe you. I believe Mr. Marwood too,” said Lucia, “are you together with Mr. Marwood now?”

“No. He’s busy with his things. I also have some things to do.”

“I am feeling much better after talking to you. I don’t know when life like this will come to an end.” Lucia let out a deep sigh.

“Don’t worry. Soon.” Anne comforted her.

Actually, she also has no idea how much longer they have to wait.

At that moment, she could only stay here every day, and she could not go anyway on her

own.

It was obvious that she was in a passive position.

Also, if Lucia’s matter was not resolved, they would have to keep contacting each other.

That made Anne feel very pressured.

Deep down, she did not wish Anthony and Lucia to have anything to do with each other anymore…

“Anne? Are you listening?” Lucia spoke louder.

“I’m here. Go on.”

“I realized it’s more suitable for me to stay in a smaller house. With me staying in such at big mansion on my own, the place just seems empty. Especially at night, I feel very anxious. Those people won’t come to my mansion to harm me, right?” Asked Lucia.

“They won’t. They are not so bold,” said Anne.

“I feel they are quite bold. They even went to the hospital.” Lucia disagreed, “But if they dare to appear again, Mr. Marwood would certainly capture them and teach them a good lesson.”

Her words were filled with her admiration for Anthony.

Anne brushed her off. “Mm-hmm.”

She spoke to her for a while more before she hung up the call.

Anne felt completely relieved.

When she put the phone down, she turned her face and was surprised to see Anthony, who was standing not far away from her at some point. “You’re back? Have you finished all the things you need to take care of?”

Anthony walked up to her. “Who were you on a call with?”

Anne noticed that his expression was a little cold, then she said, “Lucia. What’s the matter?”

“Nothing.”

Anne was thinking if she was not supposed to speak to Lucia on the phone. Otherwise, why would he have such an expression? He looked like someone had violated his possessions.

At that moment, Hayden walked over. “Mr. and Mrs. Marwood, dinner is ready.”

“Let’s go.” Without saying anything, Anne walked past him and left the balcony.

Both of them went to the dining room downstairs.

The dishes served on the table were delicious.

However, Hayden noticed that something was not right with the atmosphere.

Did they argue with each other?

Both of them did not look too happy. Why?

However, the air to Mr. Marwood was already not quite right when he came home earlier.

Anne bowed her head, stirred the bowl of soup with a spoon, and then took a sip.

It was very delicious.

However, she was not feeling too happy.

She lifted her head to glance at Anthony. The lines of his face were tensed up, cold, and harsh.

That made her feel she should not have spoken to Lucia on the phone…

Anne did not say anything.

She finished her dinner quietly and left the dining room on her own.

 

Chapter 1540

Anthony, who was having dinner, paused his action for a moment before he put down his spoon. He no longer has the appetite to eat, and the pressure of the air around him was very low.

Hayden could feel the coldness in the air even when he was standing at the entrance of the dining room.

He no longer dared to breathe too loudly anymore.

It seemed like the problem was very severe.

After that, he quickly made a fresh glass of juice and brought it outside.

Anne was spacing out while sitting leisurely by the table.

He put the glass of juice on the table. “Mrs. Marwood, Mr. Marwood asked me to bring this to you.”

“Thank you,” said Anne.

It was unclear who exactly was she thanking when she said that.

Hayden stood at the side respectfully and asked carefully, “Did Mr. Marwood do something to upset you? I think he definitely did not mean to, so don’t be angry.”

Anne knew he was comforting her. She shook her head. “I’m not angry. I’m just not in a good mood.”

“If you wish to talk to someone, I’m willing to help share the burden with you. I’m definitely biased toward you!” Hayden expressed his loyalty.

Anne laughed. “It’s not as severe as you think. It’s a small matter.”

“That’s good. Enjoy the juice, Mrs. Marwood. If you need anything, just let me know.” He left upon saying that. When he turned around, he saw Mr. Marwood, who was walking over, so he respectfully and carefully made way for him and stood at the side with his head bowed.

It was after Mr. Marwood walked past him that he left while breaking out in a sweat.

Anthony sat on the chair.

Anne averted her gaze a little as she drank the glass of juice in her hand.

Anthony asked while his black eyes were looking at her, “Are you angry?”

“Why should I be angry?”

“Or do you not want to see me?” Anthony asked again.

Anne was baffled by what she heard, then she looked at him with a slight frown. “What do

you mean?TM

“…Nothing.” Anthony repressed his emotions.

He looked deeply at her with his black eyes, and his gaze was so sharp as if he wanted to pierce right into her body and her soul.

Anne did not want to be in the same space with him anymore as it made her very upset.

Why must he force his emotions on her?

If he did not wish for her to be in contact with Lucia, he could tell her directly.

Why did he have to be so temperamental?

Just as she stood up, her slender arm was grabbed by him, and her entire body was pulled over.

“Ah…” Anne fell onto Anthony’s solid thighs. It was so intimate that she was uncomfortable. “What are you doing?”

“Where are you doing?”

“I’ll go wherever I want to go.” Anne was unhappy. “Aren’t you the one who said that I can go out?”

Anthony’s sharp gaze was fixated on her. When Anne felt her scalp tingling because of the way he looked at her, he asked her, “Who are you going to meet?”

Anne’s expression changed. What exactly was he worried about?

Was he worried that she would say something to Lucia or was he worried that Lucia would say something to her?

“You’re not allowed to go out. Don’t meet anybody unsavory behind my back.” Anthony grabbed her jaw and kissed her with his might.

It was filled with possessiveness.

“Mmm!” Anne felt a sharp pain and let out a sound from her throat.

She was instantly infuriated.

She kicked her leg angrily, and unexpectedly, she directly kicked the table over.

With a loud crash, the table, along with the glass, fell to the floor.

Anne got up from Anthony’s lap in shock and saw the mess on the floor. She was the one who did it, but she was so furious that she still glared at him before she turned around and left.

Anthony was breathing heavily. His thin lips were tightly shut, which formed a cold and harsh straight line.

Ever since she met Lucas, her attitude changed.

The thought of her liking Lucas but only staying by his side for the sake of the children was getting stronger and stronger.

That also created waves of dull pain in his heart, but there was no way to relieve it.

Anne did not leave the mansion. Instead, she went to the triplets‘ room. She sat on the bed, touched the soft covers on the bed, fluffed the pillow, and plunged her head into the pillow. She was feeling very down.
