Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 26-30

Chapter 26 While she was waiting, the staff came over. “Hello, would you like the bill?” Anne’s face reddened, and she said, “Oh… wait for a while? She went to the washroom.” “You mean the customer who came with you? She left.” “What?” She was played by Michelle. She claimed to be unwell when she was running away! Now that Anne was left here alone, she had to pay the bill. “How much?” “The total is 12,356 dollars, and after rounding off, it’s 12,350 dollars.” Anne was speechless. Her hand stiffened as she looked at the dishes on the table. “So expensive…” “Mainly, it was this bottle of wine,” the staff said. “I didn’t drink it.”

The staff did not reply and just smiled. Anne knew that this was not an excuse not to pay. However, paying ten thousand dollars for a meal would make her heart bleed! “If…if I don’t pay, what would happen?” “We will call the police.” Anne took a deep breath and tilted her head. She raised her hands and said, “Take me, then!” The staff was speechless. She was weird! Anne could not care less about being an embarrassment. She could have bought so much milk powder for her children. Also, Nancy was now taking care of three children on her own, and she had to increase her pay. It seemed that if she were caught, she would have less stress! “Madam, this will put us in a difficult situation. My advice is that if you can’t afford it, don’t come to an expensive place like this. It’s embarrassing,” the staff said mockingly. Anne blushed and lowered her head.

The staff spoke in a louder tone, and the other customers heard and turned over. Even the manager came and asked, “What’s the matter?” “Sir, this person is refusing to pay for the bill,” the staff said. The manager looked at Anne and said, “I noticed you when you came in. Your clothes are so cheap. What were you thinking when you came in here?” Anne lowered her head to look at her shirt. Other than it being cheap, it was cleanly washed. Why would he say that? “If you don’t have money, ask your friends or family to pay,” the manager said. “I don’t have friends and my family…it’s complicated.” Anne dared not to ask for her aunt. Also, she had no money in her bank account, and she still had to take care of her kids. To choose between paying or calling the police, she preferred the latter. The manager said, “I’ve never seen someone as shameless as you. Since you’re so shameless, I have to call the police.” Meanwhile, a staff member ran over. “Sir, Mr. Marwood is here!” The manager jolted and quickly turned to the door with the staff. They stood politely before bowing all the way. The big and tall figure arrived and exuded a powerful aura. His dark and eagle eyes glanced over and fell onto Anne’s face. Anne had not expected to see Anthony. How she wished there was a hole for her to hide in… The manager noticed Anthony’s gaze, and he knew he had made a scene earlier, so he quickly explained, “This woman can’t afford to pay. This is the first time we have come across something like this. Sorry for the disturbance, Mr. Marwood. I’d like to send my most sincere apology on behalf of the restaurant.”

Chapter 27 “Can’t afford it?” Anthony asked calmly, his eyes dark as usual. “Yeah! She wore cheap clothes and came here to eat for free. She is a little weird! After all, we’re one of the finest restaurants in Luton. The poor would want to try once before they die!” the manager said. Anthony walked in without a change of expression. The manager said, “Mr. Marwood, your room is this way…” Yet, Anthony did not seem to have heard him, and he kept walking. He had one hand in his pocket and another hand pulled out a chair. He sat down, and his eyes were cold. Anne pursed her lips, and her head tilted. She looked away from him. The manager was quick to realize. If not, he would not have become the manager. Seeing that this was abnormal, he was terrified. Could it be that they knew one another?

However, the clothes on this woman… “How much?” Anthony asked darkly. “This…no! She did not owe us anything. She did not eat for free. This lady wears the most expensive shirt in the world. I was foolish not to realize!” the manager said in terror. He would say anything to make up for it! In front of him, he was merely an ant! Anne saw the manager looking like a completely different person, and she thought to herself, ‘You were not wrong. I’m not wearing an expensive shirt. You’re merely intimidated by the powerful Anthony…’ Seeing that Anthony did not speak, the manager quickly asked the staff to clean the table. He asked, “Mr. Marwood, what would you like to have today?” “The usual.” “Yes, sir! I will prepare for it.” The manager bowed deeply and only stood upright after walking away. He wiped the sweat on his forehead. Anne could tell that this was not the first time Anthony had dined here. She did not know if she was unlucky or what. At least she was not arrested by the police…

“Thank you, but I don’t have the money to pay you. You could take that away from my salary,” Anne said. There was no way for her to take out the money from her bank account. “The amount you can’t afford is less than how much I’d pay for a meal,” Anthony said coldly. Anne understood what he meant. He was looking down at her. “If you want to, you can actually,” Anthony said abruptly. “What?” Anthony did not speak but merely looked at her dangerously. The bad memories flushed her head. Her face turned red, and she gulped. Anthony looked at her darkly and did not move. Michelle ran over and yelled, “Anthony! Anthony, it’s really you! thought…I thought I was delusional!” Anthony looked up and saw the charming face. “Anthony! Do you remember me?” Michelle asked with anticipation. “The daughter of the Grainger family.” Anthony looked away, looking impatient. “Yeah! I’m Michelle Grainger. I used to play in the Marwood Mansion.” She was pleased that he remembered her. The man before her was more charming than before. His body was well built, and his face was handsome. Her admiration for him had deepened. When she saw Anne sitting opposite him, she was instantly less pleased. Anne seemed uncomfortable, and she said, “I’ve something to do. I’ll leave now.”

Chapter 28 Michelle smirked. It was good that Anne knew her place. Anne better leave quickly in order not to disturb her reunion with Anthony! “Did I give you permission to leave?” Anthony’s voice was heard. Anne’s body stiffened, and she sat back down. The table was set for two people. Therefore, if Anne did not leave, Michelle had to leave. Michelle had no choice but to keep her smile up. “I asked Anne out today. I had a matter to attend to, so I came back to pay. Who’d have thought that I’d bump into you.” The truth was, she came back to look at how embarrassing Anne would be. “I’ll leave now, Anthony. Let’s meet again next time.” “Okay.” Michelle was not asked to leave. After she turned away, her smile vanished. However, before she left, she paid the bill. Anne noticed her paying. If so, she owed Anthony nothing. She had eaten, but as long as Anthony had not given her permission to leave, she dared not to leave. She sat on the chair as if there were needles on the chair. She watched Anthony as he ate. She observed Anthony. He had a full forehead, straight nose bridge, and thin lips. His jaw was sharp, making him look cold and handsome. In addition, his aura was so powerful that it made it hard to breathe. He had a deadly charm. Even if he was eating, he still seemed dangerous. Michelle liked this man? Did she want to die? However, this had nothing to do with her. All she wanted was to get away from this man…
