Ch. 466..470: Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 466-470
Chapter 466
Anne frowned. She did not comprehend what he said.
As if she could have it if she wanted it?
His big and strong palm grabbed her tiny waist, and his voice was deep. ’ Just cooperate more, we do it more, soon you will be able to have
a kid."
Anne shivered. "You want me to have a kid?"
Did this mean there was a possibility for Anthony to want her kids?
"If you really have it, just keep it. I will just need to raise one more child. What's the fuss?"
Such a dominant statement to make.
Anne bit her lips and did not say a word more.
She thought it would not be just one more child but three more children.
"If you really want it, work harder." Anthony's voice was like a demon trying to lure her in.
Anne did not reply.
She only felt panicky.
He was already scary enough under normal circumstances. If they 'work harder', would she be able to pull through it alive?
Plus, why could she conceive his child again?
The first time already almost cost her life!
"I am tired..." Anne took a big yawn, pretending to want to go to sleep.
Anthony's face became colder. Did she mean to push him away?
This was not something for her to decide.
The more she wanted to push him away, the more he wanted to make her pregnant!
He would only stop when she became pregnant!
Here Anne was, tending to her wounds on the back, while on the other hand, Lucas and the rest were looking for her.
They had to look into the clue that Anthony had dropped.
It felt as though the truth was so near yet so far, and then their train of hypothesis broke. 1
Lucas came home with an exhausted body. Not long after he entered the front door, Joanne came by.
"It's late. What's up?" Lucas asked.
"What do you think? The school could not find you, and you hung up pretty hastily. Could I not be worried about you?" Joanne said, flustered. She saw the exhaustion on her son's face and felt bad for him. "If I knew this would happen, perhaps it was better for me to have rejected her in the first place. If I had rejected her, would this not have happened? There's no clue on Anthony's end?" 1
"Tommy tried to pry from the senior management of the Archduke Group in secret, but they are all good at keeping secrets. They all said nothing was wrong." Lucas's face was grim. 1
He had exhausted all the possible methods.
Anthony seemed very normal, but he felt as though he had built an invisible fort around him, and no one could get in.
"Could it really be... that she died?" Joanne asked.
Lucas frowned. "No way! She still has three young kids. She would not die so easily!"
Joanne wanted to say that, of course, no one would wish for themselves to have an accident, but who could escape their own fate?
Nevertheless, she kept quiet, seeing how dramatically her son reacted.
Joanne asked, "Do you really like Anne so much? Could you really not make do with another girl? Honestly, as a mother, I do not like seeing you being hurt by a girl so much."
"We have already discussed this before.'
"You have known Anne for so long. Did you really never ever regret for one split second?"
"No."
Joanne took a deep breath.
She did not know what else to say.
She never expected her mature kid would be so immature when it came to relationships.
"Then, rest early. I will go back now." Joanne turned away and left.
"Mom, I'm sorry." Lucas looked at his mother’s back, feeling guilty.
Joanne looked at him and smiled. "Wanting something that does not belong to you too badly will hurt you. Are you sure the ending will be a
happy one?"
Then, she walked out of the door.
Lucas watched as the door closed. His heart felt as though it was soaked in ice water. It was so piercingly cold that he felt like struggling.
The more he struggled, the deeper he sank.
He did not know why he was so obsessed with Anne.
He grew up in the lap of a well-educated family. Education and inheriting the school was his target, it was the only thing that he wanted to do
in life.
His life was boring.
Anne came in like a rainbow adding colors to his life.
Chapter 467
He was fascinated and thoughts of occupying her even germinated in him.
However, his rainbow was about to be snatched away by someone else. It was natural for him to want to snatch it back, right?
Lucas had no idea whether Anne was in trouble or was hidden away by Anthony.
Lucas did not stay at home for long.
He went out to get the kids after showering.
Anne was not around, and he was a little concerned when the kids were left home alone.
The three kids were naturally happy to stay with their Daddy Lucas.
He brought them back to his condo and let the nanny continue looking after them.
Lucas entered the room when the triplets were already in bed.
As soon as he sat down next to the bed, the triplets asked, "Daddy, is
Mama outstation?"
"That uncle said so."
"He said that he did not hide mama away."
Lucas asked, "Anthony?”
"Yes, him! He hung up on me!" Charlie said, full of grudges.
Lucas had his doubts and decided to try them, "What else did he say? Do you think he hid Mama?”
"Not him. It did not seem like him," Chloe said.
"Daddy, are you suspecting Uncle?" Chris asked.
Lucas regained his thoughts. "No, your mama is not hidden away. She is indeed outstation now. She will be back in a few days. Now close your eyes and sleep. Daddy is here for you."
"Okay," the three little babies said.
They all shut their eyes all at once.
Lucas waited in the room for the triplets to fall asleep before leaving the room and turning off the lights.
Not too long after, the lights in the room were turned back on.
Charlie, who turned on the lights, stood on the bed. Chris and Chloe were both not asleep because they had something big unresolved.
"The adults are all bluffing us! Mama is not outstation!" Charlie’s fleshy face was squished together.
"Hush, don't let daddy hear you!" Chloe attempted to cover his mouth with her hand.
Charlie's big eyes blinked and nodded earnestly.
"We cannot just listen to the adults! We need to judge ourselves too," Chris said.
"Is Mama really not outstation? If she is not, then where is she?" Chloe tilted her head and asked.
"We can go find Papa!" Charlie had the idea and said, "We ask him to look for her. If he doesn't do it, we will be bugging him! So that he cannot have peace!"
Chloe nodded. "Maybe Mama was hidden by Papa, and they are together now!"
"That's the plan!" Charlie announced.
Tommy drove to the Royal Mansion early in the morning.
As soon as he reached the entrance, he saw the Rolls Loyce parked inside.
He entered the hallway and walked to the dining room.
Anthony was having breakfast with Bianca.
"Bro, did you only get back not long ago? Why is your car outside?” Tommy was curious.
Hayden made a slight bow at the side. "The car was parked outside since yesterday night."
Tommy smiled lightly. He carried the chair and sat down. "I have not had my breakfast, is there room for me?"
"Make yourself home." Anthony was expressionless.
Hayden turned to the kitchen to get him cutlery.
"Bianca, you don't mind, do you?" Tommy looked at Bianca and asked.
"Of course, I don't." Bianca sat elegantly. She fitted so well with the image of 'Mrs. Marwood'. "Right, Bianca stays in the Royal Mansion
every day now?"
"No, she is only here sometimes."
"So she was not here last night?" Tommy asked and saw Bianca's expression. He immediately grinned mischievously. "You have to beware.
After all, there are plenty of people out there eyeing my brother."
"That means Anthony is charming!" Bianca was not unnerved but instead was trying to be humorous.
Tommy did not say anything but started to enjoy his breakfast.
He thought Anthony would go to the Archduke Group after breakfast.
However, it turned out not to be. He stayed in the Royal Mansion for a rest, with Bianca by his side.
Chapter 468
The triplets were planning how to meet Anthony as soon as they got to school.
The thought of meeting Papa would lead them to find their Mama was growing in their minds.
If Papa hid Mama away, it would definitely not work if they just called him over the phone. They had to execute it unintentionally.
The triplets who tried to run away were blocked by the guard at the door.
The guard immediately contacted the caretaker, however it did not have any effects on them. Finally, he called the principal.
Lucas had already left after sending the three kids to school this morning. He was out to look for more hints about Anne.
"They went out?" Lucas was shocked.
"Yes, they said they would be able to find Mama if they could go out and meet Papa. They would make a fuss if we stopped them...” The
caretaker was troubled.
All the kids here were privileged, especially these three.
They all knew that they were the principal's kids.
Lucas' eyes were shining behind his glasses as he thought. He then said, ’ Bring them back to the classroom first. If they run out again, pretend that you did not see it, and then get someone to follow behind them."
The guard got the orders and followed.
It was naptime. The triplets faked their sleep.
They took the opportunity to sneak out again.
Lucas' car was waiting nearby.
He observed as the three kids ran out, feeling calm.
Did they inherit the determination trait from Anthony?
Anthony stayed around the Royal Mansion and only left in the afternoon. He sat in the Rolls Loyce and drove out of The Curve.
Tommy hid in his shiny new car in the corner.
He saw the Rolls Loyce, and immediately followed. He kept his distance so that he would not be noticed.
There were cars going back and forth, making his car less obvious among the traffic.
He followed all the way. The Rolls Loyce did not go straight to the basement car park but instead stopped by the front door, and Anthony disembarked.
Some distance away, Tommy called Lilian, "Is that him?"
Lilian, holding a pair of binoculars in the tall building some distance away, replied, "Yes, it's him."
She could see Anthony's face and body clearly in the binoculars.
"Keep watching him. When does he go in, when does he come out, to where,’Tommy said. 1
"Sure."
The lift arrived at the most powerful floor, and the pair of long legs strode out of it. Oliver was already waiting outside and followed respectfully behind Mr. Marwood. "Mr. Marwood, you have guests."
The office door opened, and he saw the triplets rummaging around.
One of them was on the floor under the office table, another one just came out of the resting room, and the other made a mess out of the documents on his table. He was even scribbling on it using a pen.
Anthony's face was frozen for a moment.
Oliver who was behind him was shocked, he did not expect things to go out of control like this!
"Mr... Mr. Marwood..." It was rare for Oliver to be stuttering.
'These are the guests you told me about?" Anthony's eyes were dark.
Oliver sweated and said, "I noticed that you treated the kids specially before, so I brought them into the office. I did not expect them to be
so... presumptuous. I will bring them out now..."
The adorable Chloe walked over and said, "You are back!"
She was followed by Charlie and Chris. "We have been waiting for you!"
"You are late to work," Chris said. 1
Anthony looked at the kid that barely reached his knee and said, "That has nothing to do with you."
Oliver received orders, turned, and walked away.
Anthony closed the office door, and then took off his coat, and casually threw it on the couch. "Did you sneak out again?"
"Yes! Aren't we smart?" Charlie thought that was a compliment.
Chapter 469
Anthony looked down at them and said, "What is so smart about it? Do you know that there are plenty of abductors out there?"
"There are a lot of good people out there too!" Chloe said.
The kids, in his impression, only knew how to make a fuss and did not have any ability to communicate.
Now, not only could the three kids communicate with him, but they could even debate with him.
Perhaps this was why Anne was close to them.
"You can call me if you are looking for me, not sneaking out like this." Anthony was stern.
"But if we have called you, we cannot find Big Sister then!" Chloe said innocently.
Anthony then realized that they were rummaging through his office to look for Anne.
"She's not here." Anthony sat down on the couch.
The triplets went forward and climbed up the couch and up his legs.
"Then... Then can you please help to look for her?" Chloe said with watery eyes.
Anthony gazed at the three kids, who were not unfamiliar with him, and who were very candid around him, and said, "You all like her that much, huh?"
"Yes!" The three kids nodded.
"What's so good about her?" Anthony was suddenly intrigued about the topic.
"Big Sister is really good to us!"
"She treats US even better than Papa and Mama do!"
"She also said you are a good man!"
Anthony's eyes moved slightly. "She told you about me?"
"Yeshie!"
Anthony had never thought of himself as a good person before, no matter what aspect.
Perhaps Anne was just entertaining the kids, but it still sounded like music to his ears.
"What else did she say?"
Chris said, "She said she is quite fond of you!"
Anthony pinched his fleshy cheeks. "It's not good to lie."
How would Anne say something like that about him?
He understood well enough how much she feared him.
Chloe opened her arms and hugged him. It took her a lot of effort as she was standing on her tiptoe. "Uncle, can you help US to look for Big Sister? Please help US to look for her?"
Anthony looked at the three of them with dark eyes. Was he going to be swayed by them?
It would be such a drama at school when they found out that the kids snuck out.
He would pretend to not have known anything about it.
"I will send someone to help you look for her." Anthony said.
'That is so great!" The triplets were over the moon.
Anthony looked at the masks on their faces, and thought the masks were not exactly pleasant on the eyes.
However, he did not request for them to remove the mask like he did last time. After all, they were some other people's kids and it was not a
good thing to get too close to them.
The phone on him rang.
Anthony took a look, and answered, Lucas's voice could be heard, "Mr. Marwood, are the kids with you? We found that the kids snuck out of
school, and they even called a cab, The cab driver said they dropped off at the Archduke Group."
"If Pinnacle Academy allowed the kids to run out of school from time to time, and the missing ones go onto TV, what would that be for you?"
Anthony was cold.
"The security guard's negligence, I will handle it. This will not happen next time," Lucas said, "Plus, I realized the kids are quite fond of you,
otherwise they would not thought about going to your place as well. Since this is the case, I will go over to fetch them later."
"I dont have time to babysit your kids." Anthony said.
"They are very obedient, they will not create troubles. I am not in school now, I am out running errands, otherwise I will go over immediately."
Chapter 470
He knew it well enough what was the errand that Lucas was running.
It was none other than the search for Anne.
Anthony did not comment but hung up straight away.
When his gaze fell upon the rummaged documents, he greatly disagreed with Lucas's remarks.
Obedient? Did he misunderstand what the word meant?
Anthony did not go anywhere else because the kids were around.
Anne's lunch was delivered by Kathryn. She applied fresh medicines to Anne before she left.
At dusk, Lilian called Tommy. "Could it really be Anthony? If he really hid Anne away, he would not sit around all day and do nothing, would
he?"
Tommy was unwilling to accept making a wrong judgment.
He thought Anthony would leave the Archduke Group office at some point.
He thought that if Anthony left the office to see Anne, he would definitely get some clues.
Could he really be wrong?
Tommy was flustered.
If Anne was alive, her human form was not around; if Anne were dead, her body was not found.
Lilian's voice said, "Updates. I saw Lucas entering the Archduke Group." "Lucas? Why is he there? Perhaps there's a new clue? Keep watching." Soon, Lilian saw the three kids coming out of the office, following Lucas into the car.
When Tommy knew about it, he was confused.
Why did the three kids appear at the office? What did Lucas do behind his back?
Tommy's car followed behind Lucas' all the way to the condo.
Lucas parked his car by the entrance, letting the nanny bring the triplets back into the condo for a rest.
He sat in the car and did not move a muscle.
After a few minutes, someone knocked on his windshield.
Lucas disembarked the car.
Tommy looked at him. "Are you purposely waiting for me?"
"Didn't you follow me all the way here?"
"Tell me, what did you do to the kids?"
"The kids snuck out of school and took a cab to the Archduke Group. This was not the first time,” Lucas said.
"The school is well guarded. How did the kids get out? When did they go out? What time did you go and get them?" Tommy questioned.
After all, they spent the whole afternoon watching Archduke Group office. They would have noticed if the kids had gone in.
Unless the kids arrived at the office before they did.
"I am keeping the Archduke Group office on the watch," Tommy added.
"I knew that the kids ran out, but I did not stop them. I got someone to follow them along the way. They went straight to the Archduke Group.
I wanted to discover some clues through the kids, but to no avail." Lucas was busted, so he explained while looking calmly into afar.
"Are you not afraid that he would remove the kids' masks and they would be exposed?" Tommy's gaze was sharp.
"He didn't. Did he?"
"You should avoid situations like this," Tommy said coldly. He got into the car and drove away. He used one hand to control the steering
wheel and the other to make a phone call. "Did Anthony come out?"
"No."
Tommy hung up. His hand held onto the steering wheel so firmly that his knuckles were white.
Lucas really was winging it. How could he discover new clues through the children? Now he exposed all of them in danger instead!
As long as Anne was not dead, the kids should not be exposed.
Of course, Anthony better make sure to keep Anne alive, otherwise, without Anne, the kids would be sent to him.
He wondered how regretful Anthony would be by then.
