Chapter 1540
Anthony, who was having dinner, paused his action for a moment before he put down his spoon. He no longer has the appetite to eat, and the pressure of the air around him was very low.
Hayden could feel the coldness in the air even when he was standing at the entrance of the dining room.
He no longer dared to breathe too loudly anymore.
It seemed like the problem was very severe.
After that, he quickly made a fresh glass of juice and brought it outside.
Anne was spacing out while sitting leisurely by the table.
He put the glass of juice on the table. “Mrs. Marwood, Mr. Marwood asked me to bring this to you.”
“Thank you,” said Anne.
It was unclear who exactly was she thanking when she said that.
Hayden stood at the side respectfully and asked carefully, “Did Mr. Marwood do something to upset you? I think he definitely did not mean to, so don’t be angry.”
Anne knew he was comforting her. She shook her head. “I’m not angry. I’m just not in a good mood.”
“If you wish to talk to someone, I’m willing to help share the burden with you. I’m definitely biased toward you!” Hayden expressed his loyalty.
Anne laughed. “It’s not as severe as you think. It’s a small matter.”
“That’s good. Enjoy the juice, Mrs. Marwood. If you need anything, just let me know.” He left upon saying that. When he turned around, he saw Mr. Marwood, who was walking over, so he respectfully and carefully made way for him and stood at the side with his head bowed.
It was after Mr. Marwood walked past him that he left while breaking out in a sweat.
Anthony sat on the chair.
Anne averted her gaze a little as she drank the glass of juice in her hand.
Anthony asked while his black eyes were looking at her, “Are you angry?”
“Why should I be angry?”
“Or do you not want to see me?” Anthony asked again.
Anne was baffled by what she heard, then she looked at him with a slight frown. “What do
you mean?TM
“…Nothing.” Anthony repressed his emotions.
He looked deeply at her with his black eyes, and his gaze was so sharp as if he wanted to pierce right into her body and her soul.
Anne did not want to be in the same space with him anymore as it made her very upset.
Why must he force his emotions on her?
If he did not wish for her to be in contact with Lucia, he could tell her directly.
Why did he have to be so temperamental?
Just as she stood up, her slender arm was grabbed by him, and her entire body was pulled over. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
“Ah…” Anne fell onto Anthony’s solid thighs. It was so intimate that she was uncomfortable. “What are you doing?”
“Where are you doing?”
“I’ll go wherever I want to go.” Anne was unhappy. “Aren’t you the one who said that I can go out?”
Anthony’s sharp gaze was fixated on her. When Anne felt her scalp tingling because of the way he looked at her, he asked her, “Who are you going to meet?”
Anne’s expression changed. What exactly was he worried about?
Was he worried that she would say something to Lucia or was he worried that Lucia would say something to her?
“You’re not allowed to go out. Don’t meet anybody unsavory behind my back.” Anthony grabbed her jaw and kissed her with his might.
It was filled with possessiveness.
“Mmm!” Anne felt a sharp pain and let out a sound from her throat.
She was instantly infuriated.
She kicked her leg angrily, and unexpectedly, she directly kicked the table over.
With a loud crash, the table, along with the glass, fell to the floor.
Anne got up from Anthony’s lap in shock and saw the mess on the floor. She was the one who did it, but she was so furious that she still glared at him before she turned around and left.
Anthony was breathing heavily. His thin lips were tightly shut, which formed a cold and harsh straight line.
Ever since she met Lucas, her attitude changed.
The thought of her liking Lucas but only staying by his side for the sake of the children was getting stronger and stronger.
That also created waves of dull pain in his heart, but there was no way to relieve it.
Anne did not leave the mansion. Instead, she went to the triplets‘ room. She sat on the bed, touched the soft covers on the bed, fluffed the pillow, and plunged her head into the pillow. She was feeling very down.
