Ch. 446..450: Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 446-450
Chapter 446 Lucas squeezed her face lightly with doting eyes and then turned around to get into the car.
Anne‘s face was burning.
She watched Lucas‘s car leave.
She would not tell Lucas what happened last night.
Anyway, it was nothing, so why talk about it? Anne went upstairs in a good mood, took her bag and mobile phone, and went to work.
Friday was coming soon.
Nigel called and said, “Be casual, don‘t be nervous.”
“Dad, I‘m not nervous. It‘s just a meal.” Anne laughed. Nigel was a little embarrassed when her daughter saw through him. “I can‘t bear to...”
He was unwilling to let her daughter go so quickly. They had only known each other for such little time!
However, there was no other way.
This was her only choice, to avoid Anthony and get rid of him.
Anne could understand his mood. “It‘s okay, Dad, we are all in Luton anyway. I can see you anytime you want. Besides, it‘s just a meal. We‘re not married yet...” “We‘ll see what the Newmans say then,” Nigel reluctantly said.
“I know.”
“I will pick you up when you get off work.” “No, Lucas wanted to pick me up.”
“Sure.”
After hanging up the phone, Anne was a little lost.
In fact, she also hoped to quickly set the date and enter marriage as soon as possible.
She had many dreams at night. When Anne turned around, she unconsciously looked at the security cameras in the corner. Her heart tightened, and she entered the department in a panic.
She sat at the table, comforting herself over and over again.
She was being too sensitive.
When she was about to get off work, Lucas called and said, “Anne, I‘ll have someone pick you up at the hotel now.”
“Why the fuss? I can go there by myself. It‘s not far anyway.” “I still have a meeting at the Education Bureau.” Lucas rubbed his brows wearily. “I thought it
would end at three or four o‘clock, but I didn‘t expect it to be delayed until now. You go ahead. I have to leave even if it hasn‘t ended by then. I can‘t be late for this dinner.” “Okay, don‘t worry, they need to eat dinner too.” Anne comforted him. At five o‘clock, Anne got off work on time. As soon as she walked out of the company, she saw a black car in the distance. It seemed to be waiting for someone.
And at first glance, there was only that car. Anne thought that Lucas had called someone to pick her up, so she ran over, opened the door, and got in the car. “Did the principal ask you to come here?” she asked. “Yes.” The driver started the car and drove into the traffic. The unfamiliar voice made Anne slightly stunned, and she looked at the driver‘s seat.
It was not Lucas‘s driver.
“I don‘t seem to have seen you. What about the previous driver?” Anne asked.
“He has resigned.” “Ah...” Anne did not expect it.
Lucas asked someone to pick her up, but he did not say that the driver was different. He was probably busy and forgot...
The car drove steadily on the road, Anne looked at the driver in front from time to time, and the more she looked, the more she felt that the man looked too familiar. The face was unfamiliar though...
Anne began to feel uneasy. She took her mobile phone and sent a text message to Lucas.
She was going to ask him if he had changed the driver. Halfway through typing, she smelt something like disinfectant in her nostrils.
Chapter 447 “What‘s that smell?” Anne asked.
The driver did not answer. In the rear–view mirror, the driver‘s eyes looked very unkind. Anne hurriedly covered her mouth and nose, but it was too late. Her vision began to blur.
Then she fell into the seat.
The phone in her hand slid down, the unedited text message was still on the screen, and then the screen turned black.
“I‘m sorry, I have a very important dinner today. I‘ll be the host next time.” Lucas left in a hurry after greeting the leader.
While driving, he called Anne.
Unexpectedly, she did not answer.
Presumably, she had arrived at the hotel.
He called the driver, but the driver did not answer the phone either.
Lucas hurried to the hotel.
When he got to the hotel, the two families were chatting.
When Lucas saw Nigel, he stepped forward to say hello and nodded politely to Dorothy and Bianca.
Then he noticed that Anne was not there.
“Where‘s Anne?” “I just wanted to ask, didn‘t she come with you?” Nigel said. Lucas‘s eyes flashed with doubt, and then the phone on him vibrated. Looking at the phone, the caller was the driver.
As soon as he answered, the driver said, “Principal, I didn‘t pick up Ms. Vallois.”
“I have a phone call, pardon me...” Lucas said to Nigel, turned, and left the box. His voice became severe. “Why didn‘t you pick her up? Why didn‘t you pick up my call?” “The phone was in the car, I was waiting outside.” The driver panicked. “I waited, and I went upstairs and knocked on the door, but no one answered.”
Lucas hung up the phone and called Anne again. It still went unanswered. The people in the hotel came out. “What‘s wrong?” Nigel asked.
“Anne... is missing.”
“What...” Joanne was shocked. “What do you mean? What do you mean she‘s missing?” Dorothy asked, “Is she refusing to eat with us?” The expressions of the Newmans changed.
Nigel‘s sharp eyes swept over. Dorothy froze and did not speak.
Nigel called Anne, but no one answered.
Lucas looked at Bianca. “Where is Anthony?”
“How is that relevant?” Bianca felt uncomfortable when she heard Lucas‘s question. “Anne is missing. Why are you asking about Anthony?” 1 Nigel instructed, “Call him.” Bianca was unsure about making the phone call, and she looked hesitant and guilty. “He‘s busy. Anne‘s business has nothing to do with him!” She looked unhappy.
“Can‘t you do something as easy as making a phone call?” Lucas‘s face turned cold, without a trace of warmth.
It was the first time that the Newman family saw their son so cold to others. “This is your business. What does it have to do with me? It‘s Anne‘s own problem, okay?” Bianca batted her eyelashes lightly. “I don‘t
think she wants to eat this meal.”
After speaking, she left immediately. Dorothy did not leave. After all, she still cared about her husband‘s mood.
Besides, she wanted to stay and watch the show.
The Newmans did not look very happy.
How many more problems did Anne want to cause for them? “Let‘s find her!” Joanne said. They started looking for Anne.
Chapter 448 After Bianca got into the car, the more she thought about it, the more frustrated she became, and she ordered the driver to go to the Archduke Group.
She felt uneasy. Anthony said that he was busy today and could not come to dinner. Coincidentally, Anne disappeared and did not come to the dinner. Could they... The car entered the underground parking lot. Bianca got out of the car and saw Anthony‘s black Rolls Loyce. The second floor in the basement was Anthony‘s exclusive garage, and only Bianca‘s car could enter.
Even so, Bianca was still worried. After all, Anthony had so many cars here. When she got to the highest floor, the secretary told her that Anthony was in a meeting.
Bianca was waiting in the office.
About an hour later, Anthony ended the meeting and entered the office.
When Bianca saw Anthony, she calmed down.
“Is it over?” Anthony waved his hand, and Oliver, who was following behind him, went away.
Bianca got up and said, “Something happened. At the dinner between the two families, Anne didn‘t show up and didn‘t answer the phone. I don‘t know what happened. The Newman family is very unhappy. I‘m really worried for Anne. I hope she doesn‘t screw up such a good marriage because of her willfulness.”
Anthony loosened his neckline, showing no emotions. “Missing?” “I don‘t know what‘s going on. Lucas and Dad are looking for her everywhere, and they still have no clue.” Bianca shook her head and calmly asked, “Where do you think Anne would have gone?”
“That‘s her business.” Anthony looked at her. “Do you want to have dinner together?”
Bianca smiled sweetly. “Okay.”
Then the two of them went to eat.
Bianca was in Anthony‘s car.
On the way to the restaurant, Bianca‘s cell phone rang. She glanced at it, and it was Dorothy.” Mom, what‘s the matter? Did you find Anne?”
“No. Where are you now? Where is Anthony...” Before Dorothy could finish her question, Bianca interrupted her, “I‘m going to lunch with Anthony. What do you want to eat?” “I‘m back. Let‘s eat at home.” Dorothy knew Bianca was inconvenient to speak to.
She was also influenced by Lucas‘s suspicion. So there was doubt.
Now that it was inconvenient to ask more questions, she hung up the phone.
“They didn‘t finish the meal, and they all went home. Anne is still missing,” Bianca said to Anthony
Anthony‘s expression was cold.
Because Anthony was busy in the afternoon, Bianca went back herself.
She went to Dorothy‘s house. “Have you figured it out? Does it have nothing to do with Anthony?” Dorothy asked anxiously. Before Bianca could speak, there was the sound of a car outside. Nigel was back. After entering the door, he asked Bianca, “Where‘s Anthony?” Bianca was not very happy that Nigel was suspicious of Anthony. Did that mean he was suspicious of her too? Unhappily, she asked Nigel, “I just came back from lunch with Anthony, and now he‘s in his company. Are you suspecting us, Dad?”
“Are you sure what happened to Anne has nothing to do with him?”
Bianca was angry. “Dad, why do you insist Anthony is to blame? That‘s really funny of you. There are so many men around Anne. What about the principal? Why don‘t you become suspicious of Tommy or other men?”
“Anne is not that kind of person.” Nigel frowned in displeasure. “Dad, don‘t be deceived by her appearance,” Bianca said. “Don‘t quarrel because of Anne, okay?” Dorothy said to Nigel, “And you! Taking it out on Bianca when you couldn‘t find Anne?” Nigel admitted that he was a little impulsive.
Chapter 449 How could he not be in a hurry? He knew Anne‘s personality very well. If she did not want to go, she would have given notice long ago, and she would not just disappear. So, something must have happened.
“Lucas cares about her so much, so she will naturally be more concerned than you are. What are you worrying about?” Bianca rolled her eyes and turned away. At night, the lights in the house seemed dim, with only a few wall lamps emitting a faint glow. “Urgh...” Anne gradually became conscious, but she still did not know what was going on. Opening her eyes, she found herself lying on the soft sofa. The room was dimly lit.
Her brain felt groggy.
“Wake up.” A low ghastly voice sounded in the silence.
Anne was startled, turned her face, and saw the man sitting on the sofa opposite her.
The dark outlines of the man were terrifying.
His eyes, which were darker than the night, were as sharp as a falcon‘s.
Anne sat up abruptly, panting and looking at the terrifying man opposite her! “Surprised to see me?” Anthony‘s voice was steady, and it became uncertain and dangerous.
“You kidnapped me... What are you going to do?” Anne‘s voice was shaking.
Anthony‘s hand stretched out to the side and pressed the button on the edge of the sofa, and the lights in the room turned on completely. Anne saw the decorations in the house and understood where she was. She was at Julie‘s house. In a daze, she saw the dazzling bracelet hooked on Anthony‘s finger, which she was all too familiar with...
Anne reacted and hurriedly looked at her wrist, and there was nothing there.
Her body was stiff, and her breathing was difficult. “I noticed it long ago. Who sent this to you?” Anthony asked.
He sounded nonchalant.
However, Anne was terrified. “I bought it myself!”
“No need to be so quick.” Anthony said, “Do you want me to verify that?” Anne‘s eyes trembled rapidly.“... Lucas gave it to me. Why don’t you leave me alone? Why are you forcing me to say this? I told you we were in a relationship long ago...”
Before she could finish speaking, he saw Anthony‘s hand flick, and the bracelet was thrown out the window. She watched the bracelet fly.
Anne stiffened her neck and did not dare to turn.
Immediately, she got up recklessly, ran to the door, and hurriedly opened the door. No matter how much she pulled on the door, she could not open it. She started sweating anxiously. “Did you really think threatening me with your death would do the trick?”
The voice behind her was getting closer.
Anne was even more frightened, she turned around, her back firmly against the door, and she watched defensively at the approaching Anthony like he was the devil.
“Anthony, don‘t touch me, I will commit suicide, I really… ah!” Before Anne could finish her words, Anthony‘s devilish claws stretched out, making her close her eyes in fright. She was forcibly dragged into the room. “Ah, no! Anthony...how dare you!” “Try me!” Anthony rushed toward Anne like a beast.
He did not give her any chance to resist... She did not know how long it took.
Chapter 450 Anne let out a powerless cry in pain. Anthony was so mad that his face was flushed red, his black eyes were like a devil, and his fingertips wiped the sweat from Anne‘s forehead. “How do you feel now?” “Go to hell...” Anne used up her last bit of strength to squeeze the words through her gritted teeth.
Anthony pinched her pretty chin and smiled wickedly. “You should consider yourself special. If anyone ever said that to me, I would have ensured they died long ago.”
“Let me die then!” Anne shouted in despair. Anthony snorted coldly. “Save your voice. You‘re going to need it for the crying later on.”
Anne opened her eyes blankly.
There was peace in her ears. It was as if after the world was turned upside down, she was left alone in the world.
She was tired.
As soon as she moved, she noticed something was wrong with her wrist.
Raising her hand, she was stunned when she saw the handcuffs on her wrists. The other end of the handcuffs was handcuffed to the bed.
She was so frightened that she pulled hard on the handcuffs, but her efforts were in vain. “Argh...” Anne had tried her best.
Just when she was out of breath, the door of the room opened, and Anthony, in pajamas, walked in with food in his hand.
Anne ignored the food and only cared about the shackles on her wrist. “You... what do you mean by this?” Her voice trembled with anxiety.
“This is made from rubber, tailored specifically for you. Isn‘t it more interesting than a bracelet? Do you like it?” Anthony asked.
He was a lunatic!
“Untie me!”
“Aren‘t you going to seek death?”
Anne understood that because she said she wanted to die, the devil thought of this way to imprison her! She did not want this! She pulled on the shackles on his hands while crying, “Anthony, release me...” “It‘s a waste of effort.” Anthony placed the dinner plate on the bedside table. “Eat.” Anne was pissed. Without even thinking about it, she swung her hand out, overturning all the plates, and the food spilled onto the ground. “Get out! Get out!”
Anthony stood on the edge of the bed, looking down at her condescendingly and coolly.
Anne felt danger.
The coldness in the air seeped into her blood, forcing her to calm down.
After calming down, fear started to creep in.
The nerves in her body were tensing up.
She was afraid that Anthony would start using violence against her again. Anthony squatted down and picked up the dinner plate.
He even went out and got a mop to clean everything up. Anne looked at Anthony, who was cleaning up, and thought, was he going to hurt her after cleaning?
After all, no one dared to be disrespectful to him.
To her surprise, after Anthony cleaned up, he went straight out and closed the door behind him.
There was no movement outside for a long time.
Anne wanted to get out of bed.
Her feet fell to the ground. Just as she was about to get up, the handcuffs stopped her from moving. Anne broke down and pulled on the handcuffs, calling out to Anthony, “Anthony! Let me go! Anthony!”
