Even if Anthony had said he did not have any kind of physical intimacy with Lucia in the past two years, did he truly have no feelings for her at all?

The kind of reaction Anthony had when he saw her on the phone with Lucia left an unpleasant taste in Anne's mouth.

When Anthony came into the room, Anne had already fallen asleep on the bed.

He walked up to her, took off the slippers on her feet, put her on the bed, and tucked her in properly.

After he had done all that, he watched her by the bed for a while before he left.

He got into the Rolls Loyce, and the car left the Royal Mansion. It gradually drove off into the distance until it could no longer be seen.

Anne, who had already woken up, stood on the balcony.

As she watched the car leave, the urge to cry became even more obvious.

Where was Anthony going?

Was he going to the company or was he going to look for Lucia?

She loved Anthony. That was a feeling that had already existed in the past, and it had never changed.

However, she did not dare to profess it to such a man like Anthony...

No matter how strong she was, she still had the mindset of a humble woman, and would still be worried about losing him...

She returned to the bed and laid down on her side, but she no longer felt sleepy.

After lying in bed for some time, her phone rang. She took out her phone, glanced at it, and saw it was Lucia who was calling.

Anne could not understand why she would be calling her again.

Could there be an emergency?

Anne quickly sat up and answered the call, "What's the matter?”

"Anne, were you the one who asked Mr. Marwood to come and visit me? I knew it. Even if you didn't come, you're still thinking of me." Lucia's happy voice could be heard coming from the other end of the call.

Anne's heart immediately sank, and a sense of sorrow filled her heart. She grabbed her phone so hard that her fingers turned white.

"He stayed for a while, and asked if I have gotten used to staying here and if I have any requests... Anne, I know he's doing all this because of you. I know my own place,” said Lucia.

Anne just felt hard to breathe. She could not understand Lucia's feelings. The happier Lucia felt, the more upset Anne felt.

However, she could only say, "It's nothing. These are what we should do.”

Upon saying that, she ended the call in a rush.

Lucia put her phone to the side, and a smug expression appeared on her face for she had won.

Of course, what she said was all fake.

Anthony had never been to the mansion to visit her. His phone could not even be reached.

The purpose of all of these was to make Anne suffer. It would be best if she could leave Anthony on her own, then Lucia would have the chance to swoop in.

The most important thing was that it was inconvenient for Lucia to appear in front of Anthony at that moment because of her face.

In terms of tricks, how could Anne even compete with her? Anne was not good enough for Anthony at all.

Anne also did not love Anthony as much as her.

Anne could not wrap her head around what was on Anthony's mind, to begin with. Anthony was incredibly shrewd, and on top of that, she had been harmed by him in all sorts of ways in the past. At the bottom of it all, she was still not confident enough.

She could not fall asleep in the afternoon, so she went to her parents’ grave with plenty on her mind.

She lit candles and put flowers at their graves.

The relationship between Nigel and Sarah was the most pitiful thing.

They have missed so many years they could have been together because of misunderstandings and because they were set up. In the end, the time they could be together was so short.

Finally, they were buried here.

She hoped that there would be another parallel universe where they could live together, have children together, and grow old together.

What about herself and Anthony? She kept feeling that there were too many problems between the two of them.

At the bottom of it all, it was because the time they spent together in the past was too scary...

"It was also you who came last time?"

Anne was slightly stunned. She turned her face, and she could not help but stand up as she saw Ron appear.

It has been a very long time since they last met. Other than having more gray hairs on his sideburns, Ron's appearance basically did not change much, which showed that he was not having a hard time here. He was just slightly tormented.
