Ch. 1551..1555: Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 1551-1555
Chapter 1551
Anne woke up late the following day, and when she opened her eyes, she was right in Anthony's arms.
She was feeling sore all over, and she felt she had been doing strenuous exercise the whole night.
She looked up and saw that Anthony's eyes were still shut. Why was he not awake yet?
Was he tired?
Just when she was thinking if she should get up and if she would wake him up, her shoulders were wrapped up by an arm.
"You're awake?"
"Mm-hmm." Anthony's voice was deep but it did not sound laid-back like he had just woken up.
Which showed that he has already been awake for a long time. He just did not move.
"Did you have a good night's sleep?" Anthony kissed her forehead.
Anne was very speechless. She did not even have the strength to speak at all.
She pushed his arm away and got out of bed.
She was completely naked, so she hurriedly grabbed the pajamas at the side and put it on. Otherwise, Anthony's gaze was indeed too intense.
She went straight to the bathroom after she put the pajamas on.
Anne stood in front of the mirror and tied the string of her pajamas properly.
She felt a pain at the back of her neck, so she pulled her hair away and saw bite marks behind her neck.
Surprisingly, there was nothing in front of her neck. They were all at the back of her neck.
What a terrifying beast.
The bathroom door was pushed open without her permission.
She knew who it was without even having the need to look.
Anne let her hair down.
She was hugged from behind. Anthony placed his jaw on her thin shoulders and said in a laid-back tone, "Does it hurt?"
"Are you a dog?”
"It felt too good, so I didn't manage to control myself." Anthony kissed the back of her neck. The kiss was extremely gentle as if it was a feather that lightly glided over the back of her neck.
Anne could not help but shudder.
"I'll be careful next time."
Anne did not believe his words at all.
Then, Anthony asked again, "Do you like it that way?"
Anne was speechless. She gave the arms that were wrapped around her waist a slight push. "Let go. I want to wash my face."
"You're not going to answer me?"
"What's there to answer..." Anne's face turned red.
She wanted to escape, but the arms around her waist tightened even more and held her tightly in his arms.
"Hmm?" Anthony buried his face in her hair and pressed his lips on her neck. "I won't let you go if you don't answer me."
"You...you're deliberately asking me when you already know the answer." Anne was about to go crazy because of him.
"I want to hear the words coming out of this little mouth of yours." Anthony stroked Anne's tender lips with his fingers.
After rubbing it twice, her lips immediately turned bright red as if they had been kissed intensely.
"You..."
"If you don't still don't say it, I won't be able to hold myself back anymore." Anthony’s voice got deeper and huskier.
Anne was frightened that she straightened her slender waist. After panting a couple of times, she gently answered, "Mmm."
"What do you mean 'mmm'?"
"I .„like it..." Anne was really afraid that Anthony would continue.
She would not be able to take it.
She would not be able to leave the room and would only be able to lay in bed the whole day.
Anthony kissed her face. It seemed like he was not too satisfied.
Anne was truly defeated by him.
She finally got out of the room with great difficulty, so the first thing she did was go downstairs.
As she sat downstairs, she held her phone and scrolled through it while waiting for Anthony to come downstairs and have breakfast together.
A news article popped up on her phone screen and it mentioned the name of the hospital.
An idea flashed across Anne's mind, so she clicked on it.
The patient at the hospital was surrounded. It seemed like the patient was the founder of the Pinnacle Academy, and he had met with a car accident...
Anne was shocked. She then clicked on the video. The footage in the video was a little messy. It was shot by reporters.
As if the reporters had finally found a piece of hot news, they could not wait to grab it, so did not care about other people's life and death at all.
Even if the footage was chaotic, Anne still saw Lucas, who was looking a little wretched being surrounded.
How could something like that happen when his leg still has not recovered?
What happened to the order in the hospital? Was nobody handling it?
Chapter 1552
Anne noticed someone coming down the stairs, so she closed the page on the screen and stood up.
She looked at Anthony and asked, “Are you going to have breakfast now?”
“Mm-hmm.”
Both of them then went to the dining room for breakfast.
“Are you going to the office later?” asked Anne.
Anthony raised his black eyes. “Do you have something planned?”
“Me? No. I’m just asking,” said Anne.
Anthony held her slender wrist and pulled her over by using just a little bit of force, which made her sit on his solid lap.
“What are you doing? I’m not done eating!” Anne felt helpless.
“Your husband will feed you. Just like last night, I have to keep you stuffed.”
Anne was speechless and her face turned extremely red.
How was he able to say such indecent words in such a serious manner?
Finally, after Anthony forcefully finished feeding her, he told her he would be back after he finished handling his business, and then he went to the office.
After Anne saw the Rolls Loyce disappear, she immediately took out her phone and gave Lucas a call.
The phone on the other end of the call rang for a while before it was answered. “Hello, Anne…”
“What’s up with the news online? You were stopped by the hospital? How’s everything now?” Anne was worried about him.
“The hospital has already chased the people out. As for whether or not there were people blocking traffic outside, I have no clue.” Lucas’ voice sounded very tired. “I’m fine. There’s no need to worry about me. Are you alright?”
“I’m alright.”
“As long as you’re alright. I’ll take care of the problems here,” said Lucas.
“How about you leave Luton as soon as possible? Don’t care about the things on this end anymore. There should be other people in your company who could take over…”
“There’s nobody else anymore. If there were, I wouldn’t have come here…” said Lucas.
Anne knew what he meant and the pressure he had to endure.
This was the place in which he grew up, but since he has left this place for so long, he would feel complicated when he returns.
On top of that, all the harm he had suffered would make him even more upset.
Anne sighed, “I got it. I’ll go visit you now.”
“No need. Anthony won’t allow you to be in contact with me. Anne, don’t care about my matters.
“How can I not care? I’ve always felt very guilty for what has happened to you…I’ll talk to Anthony.”
Anne did not leave in the car after she hung up the phone.
Because as long as she went somewhere in the car, her whereabouts would be known by Anthony.
She should first go to the hospital to take a look at the situation there…
She returned to the room and went down through the window.
With Anne’s skills, it was very easy for her to avoid people.
Lucas was resting on the bed with his eyes closed.
Suddenly, he heard some very soft sounds. When he opened his eyes, he saw a woman in a nurse’s uniform entering and she had a face mask on.
“Is it time for my medicine?”
Anne took off the face mask and revealed her face.
Lucas’ eyes lit up. “You really came?” He knew what was going on after taking a look at the clothes she was wearing. “It’s better to have less trouble. This is very good.”
Anne walked to the side of the bed, lifted the cover at the end of the bed, and saw his leg that was bandaged. “Isn’t your leg hurt? I saw online that you were forced to get out of bed.”
“I put my full body weight on my other leg. The doctor said it’s fine.”
Anne sat down on the sool at the side. “What did the people at your company say? They can’t keep leaving you here alone, can they?”
“They’ve already sent someone over. The person they’ve sent is just here to take care of me. I still have to handle the business, but at least it makes things slightly easier for me.” Lucas put on a forced smile.
“I saw reporters outside when I came over. How exactly did this matter come to light? The chaos regarding the Pinnacle Academy has long been put to rest. If someone didn’t mention it, it won’t create any trouble again at all.” Anne felt suspicious.
Chapter 1553
“I have no idea either.” Lucas looked gloomy. “Ever since I came to Luton, I kept feeling that a force was driving all these behind the scenes. If the car accident was an accident at first, then what about the gossip online? Someone even mentioned your name. The person has a very strong purpose.”
Anne lowered her gaze a little. “It’s not Anthony…
Lucas asked, “Why are you so certain? Have you found out who did it?”
“No…I’m not trusting Anthony blindly. I just felt that having this matter exposed would only bring harm and no benefits to him. Anthony won’t do any losing business,” said Anne.
A lady with the Vallois last name was mentioned online.
Her instinctual response was that it could not be Anthony’s doing.
“It’s beneficial and harmless for him to have me removed.” Lucas’ expression darkened.
“Anthony is no longer the same as before.” Anne wanted to put in a good word for Anthony.
“Anne, a leopard can’t change its spots. It’s not that I don’t believe him. I just can’t think of anyone else other than him.” Lucas has a great prejudice against Anthony.
Anne could understand Lucas’ feelings.
In his eyes, Anthony was just the same as his enemy.
“Actually, Lucas, something else has happened in Luton,” Anne told him what happened to not let Lucas be suspicious.
“You know Tommy, right? I don’t know if you’ve heard of Tianya before. It’s the name of an assassin group. The founder is Tommy.”
“I’ve never heard of it. Then?”
“Two years ago, Tommy captured me and locked me up on a deserted island…” Anne told him everything that had happened during that time. “Based on what has happened recently, it’s very likely that Tommy has his eyes on you. His true targets are Anthony and me. It’s highly probable that the car accident has something to do with Tommy as well.”
Lucas formed a little. After pondering for a while, he asked, “Do you have any evidence?”
“I don’t have any now. But as long as it’s because of me, I will certainly give you an answer that’s going to be to your satisfaction.” Anne promised.
Lucas said, “I don’t need you to give me an answer. I just want to know who did it.”
“Anthony and I will get to the bottom of it.”
Lucas looked at Anne’s face. That kind of expression of her trusting Anthony made him feel unusually down. “We….are just friends, right?”
“Yes,” said Anne, “Mr. Newman, are you in a relationship?”
“No,” said Lucas, “it’s not that I’m not willing. It’s mainly because a lot has happened to me in the past. couple of years as well…”
“Huh? Is it very serious?” For a moment, Anne did not know if she should ask him such a private question.
“My parents have passed away.”
“What?” Anne was shocked. “They’ve both passed away?”
“Mm-hmm.”
“What happened?”
“My father met with a car accident. Not long after that, my mother passed away because of cancer.” Lucas turned his face away and looked out the window with an empty gaze.
Anne did not make a sound for quite a while.
Of course, she remembered Lucas’ parents. She even remembered everything that had happened between them. No matter what, she was familiar with them.
They were unexpectedly gone.
They were still so young…
It must be a heavy blow to Lucas to have his loved ones pass away one after another within a short period.
“It’s fine. I’ve already accepted it.” Lucas did not wish for Anne to feel awkward when facing such changes, so he comforted her.
That only made Anne feel even worse.
She originally even wanted to ask if his parents, who were abroad, knew about his injury.
“Mr. Newman, just stay at the hospital and keep your mind at ease. Call me if there’s anything. I’ll certainly do my best as long as it’s something that I can do.”
Chapter 1554
Anthony returned to the Royal Mansion after he handled the matters at the company.
In fact, the matters that he was handling at the company were all regarding Anne
He was still looking for clues about Tommy. That was much more important than the work of his company.
He would not be able to have peace of mind if Tommy was not dealt with.
The Rolls Loyce was driven into the Royal Mansion, and Anthony came out of the car. His long legs were so eye-catching and also pressuring
After he entered the hallway, Anthony asked, “Where’s my wife?”
“She’s upstairs.”
“She has been upstairs the whole time?”
“Yes, she hasn’t come out of the room,” said Hayden, “maybe she’s taking an afternoon nap…
Anthony went straight upstairs without saying a word.
Anne had just jumped in through the window when she heard the door being opened, which gave her such a fright that her expression changed a little
Because other than Anthony, no servants would enter the room without permission.
Anthony closed the door immediately and walked toward the bedroom.
After entering the bedroom, he looked at the surroundings. Anne was scrolling her phone while reclining in bed
“Have you finished handling the matters?” Anne asked while looking at him in surprise.
“Mm-hmm” Anthony sat at the edge of the bed and touched her face with his fingers. “It’s a little cold.”
It was cold because Anne had gone out. Because if she had been under the covers the whole time, her face would not be cold.
Anthony was truly so shrewd that she did not even dare to be careless at all.
“I didn’t sleep for long. I spent some time in the bathroom.”
“Stomachache?” said Anthony, and he reached his hand into her clothes and touched her flat lower abdomen.
“No. Is my face very cold?” Anne touched her own face. “It’s alright. It’s not very cold. Perhaps it’s because I’m still a little unable to wrap my head around the thing online.”
Anthony did not say anything as he was waiting to listen.
Anne asked, “You must know what it is as well. Do you think it’s Tommy playing tricks behind the scenes? Can we find out the IP addresses for those accounts online?”
“Yes, but we need time. Oliver will call me tonight.” Anthony held her little hands. “Didn’t you agree not to care about this matter anymore?”
Anne bit her lips. “I just happened to see it when I was playing with my phone. I didn’t investigate. I was just asking”
“Just like that?” Anthony’s black eyes darkened.
“Of course. Won’t you know immediately if I had done something?”
As Anthony looked at her looking not quite satisfied, he could not help but kiss her lips, and then kissed her deeper.
Anne just let him kiss her as he pleased while her mind was restless.
She still could not reveal a single thing to Anthony about her involvement in the investigation of this matter.
This man’s possessiveness was too strong. He would not allow her to have any contact with Lucas at all.
When she was on the observation deck alone at night, Anne held her phone and looked at those comments online.
It was no longer that widely discussed anymore. Unless people had searched for the keywords themselves, they would not be able to see it anymore.
That should be Anthony’s doing.
As long as Anthony has given a word to the people behind the media, nobody would dare to publish news regarding the Pinnacle Academy online anymore.
The news would be directly rejected.
Anthony has also learned about the passing of Lucas’ parents, but he did not reveal it to Anne.
Letting Lucas gain her sympathy was something he did not allow.
Just when he was about to leave the study and go look for Anne, his phone vibrated. It was a photo sent by Oliver
There were two photos. One was the side profile of the nurse entering the ward while the other was the side profile of the nurse exiting the ward..
If it was someone else, he certainly would not be able to recognize who this person was and would just take her as a normal nurse
However, Anthony’s sharp eyes could tell at a glance that the person was Anne, even if only her hair was shown.
Chapter 1555
The pressure in the air instantly dropped coldly.
She actually went to meet with Lucas behind his back!
He then thought of the clues he had noticed when he went upstairs that day.
Anne’s face and hand were cold, which were things that made him suspect her. However, he was brushed off by Anne.
Was it useless no matter how he stopped her?
Anthony’s expression looked very terrible, so nobody dared to go near him.
He stood downstairs for quite a while. Hayden, who was far away, saw him and felt that something must
have happened. He was even sure that it had something to do with Mrs. Marwood.
Because nobody could make Mr. Marwood have such an easily angry expression on his face.
There has never been anybody.
When Anthony returned to the room, he had already returned to normal.
At such a moment, it was even more so that he could not go down the same road he had once taken. That would only give others a chance to take advantage of the situation.
He walked over and directly hugged Anne in his arms. Then, he glanced at her phone. “What are you looking at?”
“I was just looking around.” Anne did not hide it from him. “I realized those comments online were gone. It’s all thanks to you. Otherwise, if it were to continue, my name would be exposed soon.”
What the words that came out of her mouth meant was that she was not worried about Lucas but herself.
“I absolutely won’t allow others to put my wife’s name on the internet. Unless those people are done with life.”
Anthony bit the back of her neck.
That made Anne shudder. “Gentler…why do I feel it’s me that’s done with life and you want to eat me up?”
“Did you do any bad things then? Hmm?” Anthony rubbed his face against her intimately but was calm when he spoke.
“No! I’m home every day. Won’t you know if I did any bad things?” Anne bit her lips.
She had been trained psychologically when she was on the island back then to prevent being captured and tortured in case she failed her mission.
Anthony’s gaze was glinting with slight viciousness. “You must stay by my side obediently, alright?”
“I know,” Anne felt something was strange with Anthony, but she could put her finger on it.
Was she overthinking it?
However, Anthony did not ask any further in the end. He just carried her in his arms and went to the bathroom
The following day, Lucas, who was lying in bed, was holding his phone and thinking if he should give Anne a call. At that moment, the door to his ward was pushed open by someone.
Even the doctors would have to knock before they enter. This person, however, was so rude.
At first, he thought the person who barged in was a report.
However, when he lifted his head to have a look, it was someone else..
Anthony’s appearance instantly made the pressure in the air of the ward extremely low and the atmosphere heavy.
He could only see Anthony alone, but he could think of the number of bodyguards standing outside. They were terrifying as they came bearing ill will.
Anthony stood at the end of the bed and looked at him condescending. His black eyes were cold and
merciless.
“Are you about to make a call? I’m in no hurry. I can wait.”
Lucas held the phone in his hand, and he looked calm. “What brought you here?”
“I heard you can’t recuperate in peace because of the reporters, so I’ve decided to transfer you to another hospital”
Lucas frowned. “There’s no need for you to trouble yourself with this.”
Anthony said nothing, then the bodyguards outside came in. One of them was prepared to help Lucas up
“Do you need me to call the police?”
The bodyguard’s hands that were stretched out were stopped mid-air. Then, he said, “Mr. Newman, please corporate! Resisting will only be bad for you.”
Lucas mocked him, “Why are you in such a hurry to transfer me to another hospital? You said you’re worried about me. Do you think I’ll believe that? Let me think Are you worried that Anne would come and look for me? Or you already knew that Anne had been here? Is it useful like that? You’re just fixing the superficial trouble without resolving the problem at its root cause. Anne will never fall in love with a man like you!”
Anthony looked extremely unfazed all over. He just ordered calmly, “Make him stand properly.”
