Powerful Papa With Triplet Babies Chapter 378

Chapter 378 After Elder Marwood's death, Ron was sent away to mourn for him. With Ron gone, Damian was overjoyed and he showed up at Tommy's office grinning ear to ear. “It's great. We hadn’t even done anything yet, and they were already fighting amongst themselves. This doesn’t mean we can sit on our thumbs, though. Have you asked Anne? I'm sure that Sarah has something to do with your grandfather's death and Ron being sent away.”

“I asked. Sarah just wasn't content with what she got.” Tommy leaned back on his chair and played with his phone with his legs resting on the desk.

He was not at all concerned, but Damian was. It was a crucial time, and there could be no mistakes. If they managed to find any fault in Anthony, they would hold all the power in the Marwood Group Damian believed that anyone would have a weakness, and Anthony should be no exception.

"And you really believe that?” Damian felt defeated by how naive his son was. “Let me tell you this, but your uncle will never surrender his share even if you hold a knife to his throat. To do it for a past lover would make even less sense! Anne didn’t say anything else?”

“Yeah,” Tommy simply responded.

Furious, Damian realized he had to find out for himself as he could not rely on Tommy.

“I've yet to organize a dinner after Xander got promoted to the position of CFO. I guess I should play nice...” he mumbled.

Work was not hectic in the office because it was not the end of the month.

Anne packed up everything and prepared to leave as soon as office hours were coming to an end. She had no urge to appeal herself as Xander's assistant and often left earlier than the CFO himself. As soon as she stood up, Xander called out to her, “Hang on... Come to my office for a bit.” Wondering if she had to work overtime, she set her purse down and went into the CFO's office. “You get off work earlier than me, so I need to be extra cautious if I need you for something, or I might not be able to find you.” About the time Anne called Xander for help, he called back afterward and explained that he did not hear his phone ringing because he was in a restaurant with loud music.

The explanation meant nothing to Anne since what should not happen had already happened. Luckily, Anthony did not force himself on her, and Anne knew well enough that it had something to do with Nigel.

“Do you need me for something?” she asked.

"Work overtime, and join us for dinner. Mr. Marwood is buying us dinner.”

Anne assumed that with Ron gone. Xander was referring to Damian and asked, “I have to go,

too?"

“Yeah. He specifically asked you to show up, so you have to go. Don’t worry, I will protect you.” Anne did not argue.

When they were at the restaurant, Xander seemed to have forgotten about his promise and was cheerfully chatting with the others while Anne was forced to drink. Anne was close to kicking Xander under the table.

Sensing her malicious intentions, he turned around and started drinking in her place.

“Do I have to learn how to drink if I need to learn how to run a business from my father from now on? Ah! I suddenly don't feel like working hard anymore. It must be scary to go to one dinner after another... she thought.

After dinner, Damian arranged another round in the casino

Inside the private room, men and women clung to one another.

Anne was supposed to sit next to Xander, but Damian had arranged for a beautiful woman to take her place.

However, the others did not ignore Anne and continued to chat or drink with her.

Anne desperately wished she could be invisible, but the opposite happened, and eventually, even the woman next to Xander started pouring liquor into Anne's glass as though she did not want Anne to be ignored.

“Have a drink.” The woman smiled seductively.

Not wanting to be rude, Anne took half the glass and got up to leave.

"Where are you going?” Xander asked.

“I thought that your eyes were glued to that woman's chest, so why do you care?” Anne thought to herself and said, “The bathroom.

She walked out of the room, and just when Xander was about to go after her, Damian said,” You act like she’s your daughter or something. I will keep an eye on her, okay?” There was a bathroom in the private room, but Anne did not want to use it after seeing a couple walk inside together and remain there for a while. She understood that something like that happened frequently, but knowing seeing it was different.

She stood before the mirror in a bathroom outside the room dazedly with flushed cheeks, wondering why she was still drunk after being extremely careful with her consumption and Xander helping to drink most of her drinks during the dinner.

She splashed cold water onto her face to sober up and exited the bathroom to find Damian waiting outside.

“Let's talk,” he said.

“This is not a good time. I need to go back...” She tried to walk past him, but Damian grabbed her by the arm. “Why did you think I called you out here to eat and drink?”
