Ch. 1601..1605: Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 1601-1605
Chapter 1601
Seeing that she did not move at all, Tommy said, "It won't be good for you if you don't eat."
Anne thought that he made sense. If she did not eat, she would go hungry and would have no strength later. How could she fight with Tommy then? It was because she refused to eat and only drank water while hiding in her room that Tommy drugged her.
After a while, she seemed to have figured it out.
She picked up the fork and started eating the fish.
Tommy saw her eating and asked, ’How was it?"
"Could it be that you're the one who made it?" Anne looked up and shot a glance at him lazily.
"That's correct. I am the one who made it."
Anne thought, 'Is this something worthy to be praised?'
"It must be tough for you to do such a thing on top of everything else."
"If you're worried that it's tough for me, why don't you make it with me?"
"I don't know how to cook."
"How great. You just have to enjoy being served." Tommy clicked his tongue, but he was looking at Anne with a doting gaze.
Anne felt that he was sick in the head.
She thought that he captured her to torture her and humiliate Anthony while he was at it. She did not expect that he would make her fish for dinner.
"You won't put something in the food, right?" She put down her fork.
Tommy waved the fork in his hand. "I'm eating it as well, am I not?"
"You can take the antidote beforehand and poison me," said Anne.
"Nonsense."
"How did you handle it when I rubbed the fluid on your skin then? You still used the cure, didn't you?" Anne asked.
"You want the cure?"
"Would you give it to me?"
'Til give it to you if your performance is good."
Anne doubted him, but she did not say it out loud.
It was impossible to get the cure immediately since she had just arrived anyway. She should just endure it for the time being. Once she noticed where the cure was, she would immediately subdue Tommy.
After they finished their dinner, the leftovers were taken away.
"Do you want to take a shower together?" Tommy asked. Seeing Anne looking at him coldly, he said, "Fine. I'll go first."
Upon saying that, he turned and entered the bathroom.
Anne calmed herself down and persuaded herself not to make a scene. However, what about the sleeping arrangement after that? Were they truly going to sleep together?
She glanced at the bed. It was more than enough for two people to sleep on it. They could be separated in the middle.
If Tommy dared to touch her, she would drag him along with her to hell.
Ten minutes later, Tommy came out after he was done showering. ’Go take a shower."
"I'm not going to."
"Don't you feel dirty?" Tommy was a little disgusted.
"I can sleep on the couch if you think I'm dirty," said Anne.
"No. We'll sleep together." Tommy got on the bed, then he called out to her, "Come here."
"You want to touch me?" Anne looked at him with her guard on.
"Don't worry. I still don't want to do anything to you now, but that might not be the case if you don't do as I say," said Tommy.
Anne was half convinced. She just remained sitting without moving at all. It was absolutely impossible for her to do that kind of thing with other men.
She was forced by Anthony in the past, but he had always been the only man for her.
"Come here." Tommy personally pulled her to bed.
Anne did not have the strength to resist. As soon as she exerted a force, she would go weak.
In the end, Tommy got her onto the bed.
As soon as Anne touched the bed, she immediately cowered in the inner corner and stayed far away from him.
Tommy did not mind her reaction.
He lifted the covers and got into bed, lying in the outer corner.
"Are you prepared to sit there for the whole night? I'm not a patient person."
"Tommy, if you dare to touch me, I'll definitely kill you."
"So what are you afraid of?"
Anne lay down, sticking herself to the edge of the bed. When Tommy rolled over, her body immediately reacted and moved to the side.
"You'll fall over if you move again." Tommy looked at her while lying on his side with his head resting on his hand.
Chapter 1602
Anne ignored him.
If she were not afraid that Tommy would pull some tricks behind her back, she would have slept with her back facing him.
“Do you remember running to my home and sleeping on my bed when Anthony bullied you as a child?
“I don’t.”
“I know you do. I truly wanted to help you back then,” said Tommy.
Anne knew he was speaking the truth, so she did not refute him. She stared at the ceiling and said, “I think the past Tommy died a long time ago.”
Tommy’s expression was mixed, and he asked, “Are we not able to go back anymore?”
“Instead of asking me this now, you should’ve gone to hell after you killed the people I cared about. No matter how unhappy your childhood was, you can’t hurt others for your own pleasure.” At that moment, Anne did not pity Tommy at all.
“Look at you on your high horse. Has Anthony not killed anybody before? Has Corentin not killed anybody before? Why did you forgive them for killing people but not me? Just because the victims were your friends? This shows how selfish and sinister you are deep down,” said Tommy. novelebook.comThen, he added, “Oh, right. You’ve killed people too. Whose father and whose son did you kill again?”
Anne looked sullen, but she said nothing.
Tommy could not help but chuckle softly when he saw how she looked. “Don’t overthink, and life will be easier.”
“So, you gave yourself a justifiable reason, then went off to kill even more people. It’s not that I don’t want to forgive you. It’s that you’re still not stubbornly unwilling to change. How about you give me the cure and don’t let it go into the market? Then, we’ll start again with a clean slate.” Anne turned to look at him.
Tommy looked at her and asked, “Really?”
“I’ll keep my promise,” Anne said without thinking.
In any case, as Tommy said, she should not overthink it. Who could be sure about what the future would be?
“Alright. I can give you the cure, but you’ll have to stay with me for the rest of your life.”
Anne fell silent.
If she said yes immediately, Tommy would know that she was lying to him as it was impossible.
She looked away, then said indifferently, “Why should I stay with you? Do you love me?”
Tommy thought about it carefully. Before he said anything, he heard Anne say, “You don’t love me. I don’t love you either. How could the two of us be together forever?”
“Aren’t you and Anthony the same…”
“I love him.” Anne cut Tommy off before he finished his sentence.
Tommy was stunned, and his expression darkened.
“I fell in love with Anthony during the time I lost my memory. It’s just that weird. It absolutely never would have happened when I was in the right mind.novelebook.com Say, are we fated? On top of that,
we had children together. What reasons do I have to leave him?”
The more Tommy listened, the angrier he got. Then, he kicked her.
“Ah!” Anny fell off the bed and onto the floor. “Are you crazy, Tommy?”
“If you mention Anthony’s name again, I’ll show you how crazy I am.” Tommy got up and left the door with a hostile air to him.
Anne climbed back up and felt confused.
What was wrong for her to mention Anthony? Tommy was the one who first brought him up, was he not?thuy Tommy truly was crazy!
However, it was good that she got Tommy so mad that he left. She hoped that he would not come back again.
Anne had been drugged, so she was not agile enough. However, she was still just as alert.
She opened her eyes in the middle of the night and saw that Tommy did not return. That meant he had gone to sleep somewhere else.
Chapter 1603
Anne was drugged at that moment, and there were surveillance cameras all over the cruise ship. She saw a surveillance camera over her head when she was returning to the room. Therefore, it was impossible for her to sneak around in the middle of the night if she wanted to.
Tommy had long been guarding against her.
However, Anne still left Anthony some clues before she left him. She believed Anthony would find her very soon, but she never expected that he would do it so quickly.
At daybreak, she seemed to have heard the rumbling of a helicopter above her. Then, the door swung open. Before Anne could make sense of the situation, she was picked up.
"How did you get the message out?" Tommy said. He even searched Anne's body after that.
"Ah! Are you crazy? I don't have a phone!"
"Don't think Anthony can take you away just because he's here. If I'm going to hell, I'm dragging you along with me! Let's go!"
"You..." Anne had no strength, so she was dragged out of the room by him.
He threw her into another room. "We'll stay here and wait for Anthony to come."
Anne looked up and noticed many explosives had been placed at the entrance. Not only that but Tommy tied some explosives on her as well.
"Have you gone mad?" Anne was shocked.
Tommy grabbed her face. "I want to see how Anthony's going to save you!"
Anne felt extremely uneasy. Would Anthony come and save her like that? He would alarm Tommy like that, would he not?
She listened carefully again, and the sound of the helicopter above her was no longer there. There were no other movements out there as well.
A man came over and said, "The helicopters are gone. It seems like they were patrol aircraft."
Tommy was dazed.
Anne laughed at him. "It turns out you're just easily frightened. Look at how scared you are."
"Shut up!" Tommy looked sullen.
"I don't wish to infect Anthony and the children, so I certainly won't contact them," said Anne. Then, she continued, "I'm hungry. Can you take these things off me yet?"
Just when Tommy had lowered his guard, a dozen divers surfaced below the cruise ship. Then, they swung a hook at the railings and climbed up along the ropes.
Anne ate her breakfast slowly. Tommy sat across from her, staring at her to prevent her from pulling some tricks.
A man dressed in black started moving about the cruise ship from the bottom level. He knocked out every person he saw and avoided all the surveillance cameras.
The person in the control room was staring at the surveillance monitors when they heard a movement behind them. Just as he was about to turn around, his neck was broken.
After he kicked the body aside, the bodyguard sat down and saw Anthony appearing on the monitor. He called Anthony, "Mr. Marwood, they are on the sixth floor. You can go up straight in the elevator."
Anthony entered the elevator and went straight to the sixth floor. Before he arrived, Tommy's subordinates had already been taken care of.
"Go right, Mr. Marwood. There's an assassin on your left."
Seeing that Anne was almost done, Tommy asked, "Not going to have some more?"
Anne said, Tm full. I've been drugged, and I can't fight back anyway. Why don't you just help me get rid of the virus in my body?"
"What's the hurry?"
'Tm feeling very uncomfortable," said Anne.
Just as Tommy was about to say something, his intuition made him realize something was wrong. He turned around to look, but nobody was there. He took out his phone and called, "Is something up?"
"We haven't noticed anything for the time being."
"Come here."
"Alright."
After Tommy put the phone aside, Anne asked, "What's the matter?" "Nothing. It's just to be safe."
Chapter 1604
Powerful Papa With Triplet Babies Chapter 1604
Just as Tommy finished his sentence, he heard a commotion behind him.
Ivan was fighting with the assassin, and every strike he delivered was fatal. If Ivan were not skilled in combat, the professional assassin could have killed him in just a few moves.
Tommy realized something was up, so he immediately wanted to grab Anne.
While Anne retreated, she was pulled into a person’s arms.
“Let me go!” She thought it was a man she did not know, so she hated to be touched like that.
“Anne.”
Anne was stunned. She looked up and felt happy to see a familiar face. “Anthony?”
“It’s me.”
Tommy was infuriated as he watched the two of them looking lovingly at each other, Tommy became infuriated.
“As expected, Anne, you did leave a trace for Anthony.” Tommy’s expression darkened.
“You’re the one who took me too lightly,” said Anne.
It was because she had always wanted to run away from Anthony in the past that he had the wrong impression, was it not?
“So what? You want to kill me? With just the two of you?” asked Tommy.
Upon saying that, he turned around and ran toward another exit. There were bodyguards standing in that direction, blocking Tommy’s way. Tommy took out his gun and fired shots. One of the two bodyguards collapsed while the other dodged the shot and hid at the side.
A normal person would not run in that direction anymore. After all, there was someone hiding in the shadows.novelebook.com However, Tommy insisted on going that way, and he kept firing shots while moving forward. The bodyguard who was in hiding had no choice but to shoot back while hiding.
Tommy almost got shot. After firing another shot, he did not linger and ran immediately.
He had been staying on the cruise ship for so long, so he certainly was more familiar with the ship compared to Anthony’s men, who just came onboard. After making a few turns, he arrived at a secluded area.
Tommy tried to contact his men, but he realized nobody responded.
He knew Anthony’s men must have come onboard a long time ago, so there were probably not many of his men left.
If he could not escape, he would be captured by Anthony. He would rather die than end up in Anthony’s hands.
Suddenly, a person appeared in front of him. Tommy instinctively raised his hand and pointed his gun at him.
“Don’t shoot. It’s me,” said Corentin.
“Why are you here?” Tommy gave it a thought before saying, “You’re with Anthony.”
“He didn’t have enough manpower. I wanted to notify you, but I don’t know your contact,” said Corentin.
“Do you have a way to leave?” asked Tommy.
“Yes. Follow me. Did you bring the cure with you?” Corentin led the way.
“It’s not on the ship,” said Tommy.
He was infected at that moment because Anne had deliberately wiped the fluid from her ulcer on his hand. It was just that it was not time yet, so his symptoms were not showing. He was not in a hurry. He could just take the cure when he arrived at his destination.
“Where did you hide it?” asked Corentin.
“I’ll tell you when I’m safe and sound.”
Corentin could understand, so he did not press any further.
Tommy climbed down a robe on the railings. Halfway down the robe, he heard Corentin say, “I can develop the cure myself. There’s no need for you to be alive.”
Upon saying that, he fired a shot.
Tommy was shot. He fell into the sea from a great height.
Half an hour later, a bodyguard came to Anthony and said, “Mr. Marwood, we’ve found Tommy’s body in the sea.”
Anthony and Anne rushed over and saw Tommy’s body lying on the floor. There was a hole in his head.
Anne felt Tommy deserved to die, but she still could not accept it to see him dead so suddenly. novelebook.comHow could she have ever expected the person who protected her when she was a child would die like that?
She felt a hand being held tightly, which made her regain her senses.
“Let’s go.” Anthony took her away.
Chapter 1605
Corentin came forward and asked, "Anne, are you alright?"
Anne nodded.
"You don't look too well. novelxo What happened?”
Tommy's dead," said Anthony.
"Have you found the cure?" asked Corentin.
Anne shook her head.
"Unfortunately, novel.xo the infected people would have to endure it a little longer."
Anne suddenly thought of something, and she immediately pushed Anthony away. "Don't touch me."
Only then, Corentin noticed a small patch of ulcer below Anne's cheek." Anne, did Tommy drug you?"
Anthony frowned. "I don't mind."
"I do. Both of us would not be able to have contact with the children, and they will worry." Anne rejected his touch.
Anthony had been touching her the whole time. novëxo It was unclear if he had been infected. Anne was very worried.
"It wouldn't make a difference now. If anything, I would have already been infected just now," said Anthony.
Anne still refused to listen. "That's not necessary. Just don't touch me. We still don't know where the cure is, and Tommy died so suddenly. Could it be that there's someone else on this ship that wants to kill him?"
Anthony would not give the order to kill Tommy straight, much less throw his body overboard.
It must be someone else's doing.nvëlx.o If so, what was the motivation to kill Tommy?
"Unless there's another bunch of people mixed up among us," said Corentin.
Anne did not say anything.
"Let's go down." Anthony did not touch Anne. He was afraid his heart could not take it if she went missing without a trace again.
Anne left with Anthony.
Corentin glanced at Tommy's body in the distance. It was after he confirmed Tommy had died that he left.
Nobody would know what he had done anymore.
Ashlynn was already five months pregnant, so he could not let anything happen to her anymore. Even if he did not have the cure at that moment, it would be fine. He could deal with it after the baby was born.
Ashlynn was sitting on the couch, eating fruits.
Her belly was already very big. She could be able to deliver her baby in another four months. In other words, nvëlx.o her parents had been traveling for three months.
Why did they still have no intention to come back? She had been calling her parents every day, but she had not noticed any problem. How could she not know what her parents' voice was like?
However, the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
When she just got pregnant, they were incredibly protective of her! How could they bear to not come back when she was already five months pregnant?
The maid next to Ashlynn immediately came up to support her as soon as she stood up. "Mrs. Lloyd, if you need anything, I can bring it to you."
"I want to go to my mom's mansion."
"But Mr. Lloyd novëxo told you before he left for his business trip that you can't go out."
"I'm not going to do anything. I'm just going to go and have a look. What could happen?" Ashlynn insisted on going out.
The maid did not dare to stop her. She would not be able to bear the consequence if something happened while she was stopping her.
Ashlynn got into the car, and two maids followed her.
The driver drove them to the Hilton family's mansion.
Ashlynn exited the car and noticed two unfamiliar cars parked at the entrance.
Who was it who came? It might be the people from the company.
Could it be that her parents were back? Otherwise, why would somebody from the company come over?
Ashlynn was very happy.
She had not seen her parents for three months. She missed them very much.
As soon as she entered the living room, she heard someone talking.
"Jeremy, you can't continue to waste yourself like that. How could your parents' soul rest in peace when you look like this?" The person who spoke was Beth's trusted assistant and a senior member of the company.
"I'm just resting for a couple of days at home. What's there to be worried about?" Jeremy said in annoyance.
"But you don't even care about the company. How is this alright? You have a long way ahead of you, and your sister is pregnant now. She will still have to depend on you in the future."
