Ch. 816..820: Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 816-820
Chapter 816
Anne’s head plunged directly into Anthony’s arms, and her whole body leaned against him, tightly wrapped by the powerful man’s domineering aura.
Then, she struggled anxiously. “I can’t either!”
Anthony grabbed her chin, squinting slightly. “Let’s find out.”
“No…mmf!” Just as Anne spoke, her little mouth was kissed and swallowed.
Anne turned her face away, feeling short of breath. Then, Anthony’s face was buried in her neck, causing her body to tremble uncontrollably. When she realized the driver was about to start the car, Anne hurriedly shouted, “I’m not leaving!”
“The children are here, and they don’t need you to accompany them.” Anthony’s voice was hoarse, and his obsidian eyes stared at her as if she were prey.
…Did you find who killed my dad?” Anne blurted out in a panic, but it was also the hardest truth.
She did not want to be taken away, and she did not want to have anything to do with Anthony.
Anne was simply not in the mood.
Nigel’s death was a knot in her heart and Sarah’s. It was impossible for them to live in peace if they could not find the murderer.
Initially, Anne thought Anthony would be overbearing and not allow it, but he surprisingly stopped, staring at her.
Anne held her breath in defense.
“I’ll find that person and make them regret ever being born into this world.” Anthony’s gaze was ruthless.
Anne nodded and asked, “Can…I get out of the car?”
Anthony leaned against the seat. “What’s the hurry?”
In truth, he did not want to do anything to her. Yet, whenever he saw her, he had the urge to do something.
Anne sat on Anthony, feeling uncomfortable as if she were prey under scrutiny.
He would probably not continue doing it anymore, right? Then, why was he not letting her get out of the car?
Moreover, Anne was also curious. If Anthony was here, where was Bianca?
She and Bianca were the same, both had lost their father.
Even if he did not accompany Bianca, he must comfort her, right?
At this moment, Bianca played the piano alone in the Royal Mansion.
Every fingertip pressed down very hard, and the tune began to change, becoming louder and harsher.
In the end, the piece was out of tune, like a madman fighting.
The ears of the people in the Royal Mansion could not stand it. It was no longer a piano piece but the sound of a demon piercing their ears.
Clank clank clank! Bang bang bang!
“Ahhhh!” Bianca shouted and stopped playing the piano, almost exhausting her strength.
Even her fingers were about to break.
Looking at the lonely flowers in the vase beside her, Bianca felt angry and sad.
Anthony must have gone to find Anne.
Why must he treat her this way?
Anthony would never treat her like this if Anne’s children did not exist!
Bianca’s mind was full of images of how to make Anne’s life worse than death, and her face contorted from the rage, appearing vicious.
The moon hung high in the sky.
Ashlynn stood there, staring at the moon in the sky.
She did not want to return to her room.
“Room’ was a terrifying term for her. As soon as she walked in, she would be eaten alive.
“Why aren’t you sleeping?”
The footsteps behind her and the man’s hoarse voice made Ashlynn’s back tense instinctively.
It was as if she suddenly encountered a monster while walking in the jungle, causing her hair to stand on end.
The man hugged her from behind and kissed her neck. “Why aren’t you saying anything?”
Ashlynn felt uncomfortable and wanted to get away from his embrace, but his arms tightened as soon as she moved.
“Aren’t we going to bed?”
Chapter 817
“I suddenly think the moon looks great.” Corentin looked at the moon in the sky.
Ashlynn just stood there motionless, as if kidnapped.
“Don’t be scared. I’m your husband,” Corentin said gently.
Ashlynn felt sick whenever he spoke in such a gentle tone.
“Do you really want me to be your wife?” Ashlynn was filled with panic when she asked this.
“What do you think?”
Ashlynn believed she would be killed by Corentin sooner or later, or he would simply throw her into the crocodile pond like Amy.
Disappearing in this world without a sound.
“As I said, I won’t hurt you. Of course, you aren’t allowed to hurt yourself too. You’re mine, and only I can. decide your life or death.”
Corentin was simply a psychopath. Ashlynn would rather he killed her than make her wait like this, as it was worse than death.
Corentin stroked her flat belly. “Do you think my child’s in here? You owe me this.”
Everything he said would trigger Ashlynn.
Having a child was what she feared the most, and she even hoped she was infertile.
Someone came over from the side. It was Corentin’s close subordinate, looking flustered. Then, he spoke hesitantly, “Mr. Lloyd…”
Ashlynn looked and wondered if something had happened.
Corentin let go of Ashlynn and gently patted her shoulder. “Go back to the room. I’ll be there later.”
Ashlynn did not ask anything and left obediently. When she passed by Corentin’s subordinate, she did not smile at him either. After all, anyone who worked for Corentin would not be a good person.
After Ashlynn left, Corentin asked, “What’s the matter?”
“I found this….listening device on me. It was attached to my belt, and I only found it just now.” The subordinate handed over the round black monitor.
Corentin held it in his hand and looked at it with a gloomy expression. “So you’re saying that you don’t know when it was placed on you? Do you want to be crocodile feed?”
“Mr. Lloyd, have mercy!” The subordinate immediately knelt with his head bowed in front of Corentin.
Corentin dropped the listening device, crushing it fiercely with his hard leather soles.
Who did this?
It was definitely not the old man.
Corentin looked at the far corner.
Ashlynn, who was hiding in the corner, was shocked, and she did not dare to stay any longer. Then, she turned around and left.
Corentin pretended not to see the peeping Ashlynn. “If this happens again, you’ll jump into the crocodile pond.”
“Yes, Mr. Lloyd.”
Even after Corentin left, his subordinates still did not dare to get up. The burly man was frightened by the oppressiveness that cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Anthony, who was with Anne, received a call from Oliver. “Mr. Marwood, the listening device has been destroyed.”
“It’ll be discovered sooner or later.” Anthony was not surprised.
It was discovered about the same time as he expected.
“Will Corentin guess that we did it?” Oliver asked.
“He doesn’t have the proof.”
Anne watched as Anthony ended the call, and she asked, “What happened? What was discovered?”
“I planted a listening device on Corentin’s subordinate. Anthony did not hide it from her.
Anne was shocked, but she quickly realized something. “Is that why you’re so sure he has nothing to do with my dad’s death?”
She thought he was completely guessing!
“The listening device didn’t catch anything useful,” Anthony said.
Anne thought it was a pity, but she also could not help but feel that it was necessary to be cautious and prudent when interacting with Anthony.
Was a person who randomly put listening devices on people not terrifying?
Anne had nothing more to ask, so she said, “There’s nothing else, right? I’m going back.”
Anthony ordered, “Start the car.”
Chapter 818
The car drove away.
Anne panicked. “Hey! Anthony, don’t push me!”
“Or what?” Anthony stared at her intently. “Don’t you need to sleep at night? Since you need to, it doesn’t matter where you sleep.”
Anne was speechless.
Sarah stood upstairs, watching the car leave below. She saw that Anne did not get out of the car either, and she was happy to see this.
It meant that Anthony did not accompany Bianca but came to find Anne. Hence, it could be seen that Anne, with children, was more important than Bianca.
The following day, Sarah and the nanny helped dress the children.
The triplets were curious and asked, “Where’s Mama?”
“I don’t see Mama!”
“I know! Mama is still asleep!”
Sarah said, “You guessed wrong. Mommy and Daddy were together last night.”
“Papa came?”
“Ah. They went on a date!” Chloe’s big eyes lit up.
Sarah asked, “Do they always go on a date?”
“Yes!” Charlie answered.
“They’ll not come home the whole night!” Chris added.
Then, the petty Sarah asked, “Are Daddy and Bianca always together?”
“We don’t see that!”
“Papa is really busy. He’s always in his company!”
“Papa doesn’t like Bianca!” Chloe pouted.
“That’s for sure,” Sarah said. When the nanny was away, she whispered and taught them, “Do you want Mommy and Daddy to be together?”
“Yes!” The triplets answered in unison.
“If you want that, you have to find a way to create more opportunities for them to be together. That way, your parents will be by your side in the future, okay?”
The triplet’s eyes sparkled, and they nodded hard. “We’ll try our best!”
“So smart!” Sarah praised them.
Anne slept in the apartment with Anthony at night, and he really did not do anything to her, just simply sleeping.
The next morning, she went back.
After entering the mansion, Anne found that the car was not there, and no one was around.
Anne took out her phone and called Sarah, “Mom, where are you?”
“The kids said they want to go shopping with me. I’m outside!” Sarah replied, “You’re back?”
“Yes. I didn’t see you, so I called and asked. Well, have fun. I’m going to the company.” Anne hung up the phone. Then, she called Anthony after giving it a thought. “Come pick me up. They’re all out, so I have no car.”
Anthony’s fingers tapped on the side of the car door. The driver understood and turned the car around. However, he said, “Aren’t you shameless?”
“Am I to be blamed?” Anne did not feel guilty. If Anthony had not taken her away last night, would she have needed him to pick her up?
A few minutes later, the Rolls Loyce came. Then, the door opened, and Anne climbed in.
Under Anthony’s stare, Anne stared out of the car window uneasily.
Bianca’s car was parked in the distance, watching Anne getting into Anthony’s Rolls Loyce. In an instant, she was filled with rage.
Just as she had expected! What a b*tch!
She would never let Anne have it easy!
After the Rolls Loyce left, Bianca took out her phone and called Mr. Walker. “Let’s act tonight.”
“To what extent?”
Chapter 819
“Best if someone dies! Also, get more reporters to go over!”
“Understood.”
Bianca furiously tossed her phone aside.
Her father had just died and some problems occurred at the factory. She wanted to see if Anne still had the cheek to manage the company!
Bianca would do whatever it takes as long as she could make Anne suffer!
Anne entered the office and glanced at the documents on the table that needed her to look through. She went through them and saw the data sheets regarding all aspects related to the building of the factory. tucked in between all the documents.
She pulled it out and looked through them page by page.
Some needed her signature.
Anne took out a pen, drew a circle on the paper, and put it aside.
The door to her office was opened by someone in a very rude manner.
Anne saw that Bianca was the person who came in, so she said without any expression, “Do you need something?”
“Dad is not here anymore. How far can this company go in your hands? It’s still not too late for you to step down right now.” Bianca was high and mighty.
“It’s Dad’s will for me to manage the company, so why should I step down? Don’t forget that the company is now mine. There’s no such thing as stepping down,” Anne said indifferently.
Vicious rays were radiating out of Bianca’s gaze. “You’re in great pain now that Dad is dead, aren’t you? Do you think that being like that is enough?”
“Are you not in pain?” Anne asked her in return. “You’re Dad’s daughter as well.”
“Precisely because I’m his daughter as well, on what grounds did he only give me a little bit of money and nothing else? Why are all good things given to you? Anne, what shameless things have you done in secret?
Bianca was aggressive.
“It’s because Dad felt he owed me that he did this. Is there a problem with that?” Anne refuted.
“Who knows? You and your mother looked so similar and you look younger than her. It wouldn’t be strange if something had happened.”
Anne’s expression changed drastically and she suddenly stood up. “Bianca, what are you talking about!?” She immediately threw the documents she had in her hand at Bianca.
Bianca dodged and was not hit by the documents.
Seeing Anne being exasperated, Bianca felt a twisted delight.
“He is your dad as well. How can you say such a thing? What do you take him for?” Anne was so angry that she felt her chest was about to explode. Tears welled up in their eyes. She never expected that Bianca’s mind would be so nasty!
“Are you angry because you’re embarrassed? Do you think I’m afraid of you?” Bianca gritted her teeth. “Let me tell you something, Anne. The conflict between us is irreconcilable!”
The office door was left open and Ken rushed in in a panic. “Ms. Vallois, something has happened at the factory.”
Anne frowned. “What happened?”
“The factory collapsed.”
Anne’s gaze darkened a little.
Bianca was gloating. “I remembered that expansion of the factory is the first decision you’ve made after you managed the company, right? It seems like your ability is obvious to all. I’ll just wait to see how you’ll be reprimanded by the company’s management. You’ll be asked to leave!”
Anne simply ignored her and left the office. “Let’s go and have a look.”
“Yes.” Ken followed behind her.
How could Bianca miss the chance to watch such a good drama? Besides, she had an objective for appearing in Anne’s office, to begin with.
After Anne got in the car, she noticed a car following closely behind her.
That was Bianca’s car.
Anne knew what Bianca had in mind-she wanted to watch Anne make a fool of herself.
The cars arrived at the entrance of the factory. They got out of the cars.
A police car was parked next to them.
Not far away, Mr. Walker was being escorted into the car by the police.
There were also reporters continuously taking photos at the side.
As soon as Mr. Walker saw Anne, he hurriedly asked for help, “Ms. Vallois, help me! There must be some misunderstandings in this!”
“Misunderstanding? Isn’t it better for you to explain to the police?” Anne sneered.
Bianca saw that something was not right. It was not what she had expected.
Why was Mr. Walker being taken away?
Did she not ask for the wall to be smashed, for two people to be killed, and for Anne to be held responsible?
Anne looked at Bianca and asked, “You don’t understand? Let me explain it to you. Ever since Mr. Walker was responsible for the expansion of the factory, he had embezzled quite a bit of the company’s money. I’m very clear about how he made purchases from one company and used another company’s materials. I have handed this case to the respective department to investigate. If they didn’t have concrete evidence, they wouldn’t have taken him away. Don’t worry. All the people who were involved, be it Mr. York, the bricklayers, and so on, I’ll hold all of them accountable.”
Chapter 820
Chapter 820 Do not think that she had no idea those few people were in cahoots. The mishap with the fallen steel pipe back then was absolutely no accident. Anne did not pursue the matter because it was still not the right time. Bianca was so pissed that she gritted her teeth hard while pretending to be fine as if it has nothing to do with her at all. “Why are you telling me this? To prove that you’re very competent? What a joke. Your best ability is to go around and seduce men!” “Ms. Vallois, help me. I’ve been framed!” Mr. Walker was still begging for mercy. Anne said, “I can do that! Tell me who is the one who asked you to do this. There should be someone instructing you to do so, is there not? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been so audacious.” Mr. Walker avoided her gaze. “No….it’s not like that…it’s because I’m greedy…” Anne did not ask any further. “Thank you, officer!” “Anne Vallois, how dare you harm me! Things won’t end well for you! You’re absolutely nothing…” Mr. Walker failed to beg for mercy, so he might as well just lash out while he was being escorted to the police car. Without any changes to her expression, Anne looked at Bianca, who was holding back her anger. “You’re very disappointed, aren’t you?” Bianca scorned, “If it weren’t for Anthony, do you think you’ll be able to escape unscathed?” “Are you admitting that you’re the mastermind behind this?” Anne asked. “I’m the mastermind? Why don’t I have any idea then? You have such a great imagination. It’s a pity that you’re not writing novels!” Bianca mocked her. Upon saying that, she got into her car with a pale face and left as she stepped on the gas. She was quite pissed off. She failed again! It did not matter for she would never give up! How could she possibly let Anne stand on a higher ground flaunting her might and watching her living so comfortably?
There must be other ways. There must be! The surface area of the factory expansion was not great. Since it had collapsed, they had to start all over again. Anne picked another person from the company to be involved and guaranteed there would not be any problems anymore this time. -After this incident, the people of the company probably were more or less afraid of her. Just because she was young, they should not think of her as a weak person whom they could bully as they wished. This was her father’s company. She absolutely has to treat it as her own business and manage it well. She looked at the view of the streets outside the window that kept passing her by. Once she thought of Nigel, Anne’s tears would well up in her eyes… Tommy called while she was still in the car. “I’m not going,” said Anne. “It’s very rare for me to request something from you, isn’t it?” “Don’t bother me.” Anne was not in the mood. “If you don’t come, I’ll go look for you at the company.” Anne rubbed her teary eyes and agreed. She arrived at the club. Then, she was taken to the pool room. Tommy was the only one in the pool room. The top half of his body was pressed against the pool table. His entire figure was elongated and the outline was sexy. He was aiming at the white ball with the stick in his hand, then with a clack, three balls were pocketed. Good play. Tommy turned his head back and looked at Anne. “Do you want to play?” “I don’t know how.” Anne walked over and looked at all the balls scattered all over the pool table. He was playing alone. He must truly be in the mood.
“I’ll teach you.” Tommy chalked the top of the stick with the chalk in his hand. Anne sat down on the chair at the side. “No need. What’s your purpose in looking for me?” “Play pool. Have lunch,” said Tommy. “Let’s have lunch then.” Anne stood up. She has to have lunch anyway, so she might as well have it before. returning to the company. Tommy walked over and pulled her up. “Pocket this ball.” Anne looked at the red ball on the table that he was pointing at. It was very close to the white ball and it looked like it was very easy to pocket. In order to go have lunch sooner, Anne grabbed the cue stick from Tommy’s hand. “What’s so hard about this? I’ve never played it myself, but I’ve seen others doing it.” She mimicked how others did it and bent over the table. She used her left hand as support and her right hand to push the cue stick. Tommy grabbed her hand and helped her position her hand. “Like this.” Their hands intimately touched, but Anne did her best to take it as a learning experience. “Don’t underestimate me too much. It’s just hitting the ball into the pocket. It’s the pocket on the right, isn’t it? It’s so near. It doesn’t need any skill at all…” As she said that, she pushed the cue stick with her might. After a clack, she saw the white ball jumping over the red ball, flew out of the table, and landed on the ground with a loud thud.
