Chapter 478

Anthony stopped and turned around as he stared her down intimidatingly. ' Lucas Newman is standing ten meters away from US. Have you figured out what you are going to do? Hm?"

Anne Stood frozen, trying to catch her breath as she Stared into the distance.

She knew that Anthony was telling the truth, and she had not forgotten about what he had said on the phone before.

Lucas would not give up based on the words she said inside the school, and he would come looking for an explanation.

Anthony had anticipated that.

Anne took a deep breath and walked closer before stopping right in front of Anthony. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed her lips against his, all the while moving as gently as though she was truly kissing the man she loved.

Anthony wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her closer to deepen the kiss.

In the distance, Lucas stared at the two as he clenched his fists. His chest felt heavy and as the look in his eyes slowly turned from shock to indifference, he turned and left.

Anne noticed the figure leaving at the corner of her eyes and immediately darted away from Anthony. "He's gone now. Satisfied?"

"Is that supposed to be a question for me?" He narrowed his eyes dangerously.

Anne knew that she was acting frustrated and shot him a fake smile.” Forget it.”

He stared into her star-like eyes before getting into his car.

The car door closed, and the Rolls Loyce disappeared into the distance.

Anne turned to look at the spot where Lucas was standing, a void that was left behind that was meant for someone else.

She knew that she had hurt Lucas, but it was better to end it sooner than later. For his sake, he was better off without her.

Anne went back upstairs to the sixth floor, where her children were waiting for her.

She stared at their innocent smiles and knew from the bottom of her heart that she would not have been able to take care of her children had she not received help from Lucas. She would have been overwhelmed, or someone else would have discovered the triplets.

She felt guilty toward Lucas and desperately hoped that he would not resent her, but she knew there was nothing she could have done.

It was late in the night, but Bianca appeared in the area where Anne lived.

She had come all the way to check Anne for any suspicious marks on her body under the influence of Dorothy's words. Once she confirmed it, no one would try to link Anne's disappearance with Anthony any longer.

She knocked on Anne's door in contempt, but no one came to the door. However, it was merely nine, and it was unlikely that Anne was already asleep.

Bianca continued knocking and kicking at the door, but still, there was nothing but silence.

She took out her phone to call Anne but stalled before dialing the number.

If Anne was not home at the moment, could she be with Anthony?

She immediately headed toward the Archduke Group and went into the office to find Anthony working.

'Why are you here during this time?" he asked.

I was on my way home and wanted to drop by to see you.” Bianca looked at all the documents on his desk and was impressed by how intense his work lifestyle was. "I came here from Anne's apartment, actually, but she wasn't home.”

"Really?" he asked expressionlessly.

"Really. I knocked for ages, and no one came to the door. She didn't answer her phone either. Maybe she's deeply asleep!” Bianca said.

"Hm." Anthony did not seem interested in the topic.

"How much longer do you need to stay? I'l keep you company.”

“It's fine. Go home. This is going to take a long time.”
