Ch. 571..575: Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 571-575
Chapter 571
Anne could not say anything.
She indeed wanted to find a family for the kids. It was not wrong for her to think this way, was it?
However, she did not dare to say it.
Anthony's eyes were menacing in the dark. "Anne, I really should strangle you to death!"
"Don't... forgive me, I am only scared that... I would anger you if I gave birth to the children without your consent..."
'What do you think now?" Anthony looked at her like a demon.
She was so afraid as though she would be dead in his hands within the next second!
She knew how much strength this pair of hands had, and it was nothing that she could withstand!
Anthony's glare in the dark almost pierced right through her, and the next second, he released her.
"From now on, you don't have to care about the children anymore."
Anne was stunned. What did he mean? She did not have to care anymore? Or.
She saw Anthony was about to leave, and so she hastily went around to stop him. "Master, what do you mean by I don't have to care about the kids anymore? Ever since I went to Santa Nila, I had only seen the kids via video call. After the plane crash, I never even got to see them in video anymore. Please, let me see the kids."
Anthony looked at her panicky expression but did not budge. “You only told me one of the reasons why you hid the kids. The other reason must be you are afraid that I will fight for custody against you!"
Anne was quiet after being seen through.
'I was giving you a chance. Remember what you answered me in the hospital?’ Anthony's voice was extremely cold, "Your first reaction to losing the children was to keep concealing it and not to tell me the truth. How could you possibly take good care of the kids this way? Or do you think Lucas could do what he wants in Luton?"
"No, no..." Anne's eyes were red.
He could say whatever he wanted to her except to question her love for the children.
"I carried them for ten months. I could barely walk toward the end of my pregnancy. I was even allergic to the amniotic fluid, and my whole body was itching. It was so agonizing. Even so, I had never regretted giving birth to them. How could you say something like this..." Only Anne herself knew the pain that she went through.
"You asked for it!" Anthony walked away.
Anne grabbed his arm in panic. "Master, please don't treat me this way. You will have your own kids with Bianca. I will never give birth again. Don't you be so cruel to me!"
"Let go of me." Anthony's voice was terrifying.
Anne shivered as she slowly released him. "I... Can I stay here overnight? The cab has left. I cannot leave."
"Hayden, prepare the car!" Anthony said and went to the study room.
Soon, Hayden came back. "Ms. Vallois, the car is ready."
Anne looked at the study and was more annoyed as she did. How could he stop her from seeing her own children?
If she left now, that meant she compromised.
Anne pushed Hayden away and dashed to the study.
'Hey, Ms. Vallois..." Hayden was stunned.
The door was banged open, and Anne stormed into the study. It was brightly lit inside, much brighter than the
outside. She could see the cold on Anthony's face much clearer.
'Anything else?"
'What can I do for you to allow me to see my children?" Anne asked.
"Don't you act as though you are here to negotiate with me. You are not even human to me."
"Are you really not allowing me to see the kids from now on?" Anthony's silence terrified her, and she burst into
tears. "Anthony, are you still
human? It's okay if you hate me. Why did you involve the children?"
'Are you dead?" Anthony threw a sharp glare at Hayden, who was standing still by the side.
Hayden was shocked and immediately went to Anne's side. "Ms. Vallois, please don't make this difficult for me.
Please go out."
Anne bit her lips and looked at Anthony with tears in her eyes.
Chapter 572
Anthony immediately recalled Chloe's expression, which looked exactly like hers.
Even though he thought about that in his mind, his expression remained cold.
As though Anne did not hear it, she stood still.
Anthony was suddenly triggered, he stood up.
As he walked out, he grabbed Anne and dragged her out!
"Let go of me! Anthony... Let me go! I want to see the kids! Anthony... Ah!" Anne was flung out of the hallway.
Anthony looked at her expressionless. His presence was intimidating. " There's no advantage in annoying me!"
After warning her, he left for the hallway.
Anne wanted to pursue but was stopped by Hayden. "Ms. Vallois, Mr. Marwood is not wrong. This is doing nothing
good for you."
"Isn't he already annoyed? What does he look like when he is angry? About to kill me?"
"Ms. Vallois, calm down and listen to me. You cannot just face it head-on when he is pissed. That way, you will only
annoy him further! Please go home first. You can come back after Mr. Marwood gets over it. After all, you are the
mother to the kids. Mr. Marwood would still consider it, right?" Hayden suggested.
Anne eventually calmed down.
Yes, no matter what, she was the triplets' mother. It was impossible for her not to see the kids.
She asked, "Is Anthony good to the kids?"
"Of course. He even offered to feed Ms. Chloe during mealtimes but was declined!" Hayden laughed.
’Really?"
"Yes, I can never lie to you about this."
Anne sighed and looked to the entrance of the hallway.
She would be back, and she would be here until she saw her kids.
For now, she would wait for Anthony to get over it.
She turned, got into the car, and returned to the hospital.
She was still feeling uneasy. What if Anthony was unhappy all the time? She would not know when he would be in a good mood!
She slept really late, and so she was still sleeping in the morning when Sarah came by.
She heard the little noises and opened her eyes wide. When she saw it was Sarah, she closed her eyes again in disappointment.
"What's with your expression?" Sarah asked.
Anne looked disappointed. She thought it was Anthony...
"No, I thought it was an intruder."
Sarah laughed. "Why would someone intrude on a ward? To kidnap a patient? Luckily I brought you some food. Here, have something. You can eat anything now, but it's always better not to have something too oily in the morning. I have made you some eggs and toast."
"Oh..." Anne sat up. Her eyes were still half closed.
Sarah pulled the table to the bedside and asked, "Did you have a bad sleep? ■
"Yes."
"Why? Are you not feeling well somewhere? Did you call the doctor?" Sarah was nervous, and she was worried
that her condition had worsened.
"Nothing much. I just overslept during the day." Anne did not know how to tell Sarah about the kids.
Both Anthony and Bianca knew about it, but she could not bring herself to tell her own mother about it.
She was not sure if her mother would faint after hearing about it.
Someone knocked on the door, and Nigel came in.
Sarah subconsciously avoided eye contact with him and looked toward Anne.
’Dad," Anne called him.
She felt that she was not the only one being out of the mood today. Even her parents were a little off too. The vibe
was weird.
Her father would visit her every morning, even if he could only stay for a short while.
However, her mother was much earlier today.
"Did you just have breakfast?" Nigel asked.
Sarah said, "She did not sleep well last night and was still asleep when I arrived!"
"What happened?" Nigel asked.
Chapter 573
Anne said, "Nothing big. I just overslept during the day."
Nigel checked the pillow behind her and said, "Are you not using the down feather pillow that I bought you?"
"Luckily, I had the down feather pillow. Otherwise, I would be awake the whole night," Anne said.
Nigel laughed. "Just let me know whenever you need anything."
"I will."
Sarah sat by the bed, Nigel sat on the couch, and they both watched as Anne ate.
Soon, Sarah asked, "What kept you busy recently?"
Nigel said, "It's more or less the same thing every day."
"Why are you still working so hard? Your daughters are grown, and your soon-to-be son-in-law is the most
powerful person in Luton. Even if your wife is a big spender, you will not need that much money," Sarah said.
"No, I am just used to living this way."
"You are still the same as before," Sarah said.
The two of them were a little awkward once the past was mentioned.
Anne listened quietly by the side and did not interject the conversation, pretending she was invisible.
She felt that her father must not have known about the kids. Otherwise, he would not be behaving so calmly.
So, should she tell him while both her parents were there?
Just when she was debating with herself whether to tell him or not, the door of the room was open very aggressively.
Even Sarah and Nigel were shocked.
Dorothy stormed in and immediately pointed at Anne. "You shameless
woman, I must teach you a lesson today!"
Then, she charged forward, and Bianca, who was behind her, did not stop her.
Dorothy grabbed and tugged Anne's hair.
"Ah!" Anne felt the pain.
"Anne!" Sarah shrieked in shock.
Nigel had never expected Dorothy to do such a thing and immediately attempted to pull her hand away. "Let go!"
"Why should I? I will not let go!" Dorothy did not care about her image anymore but pulled at Anne's hair stubbornly.
Nigel had no choice but to peel away Dorothy's fingers forcefully.
Dorothy screamed in pain, before she was pushed away.
"Nigel, how dare you treat me like this!" Dorothy could not believe it and was screaming furiously.
Nigel checked Anne's scalp regretfully and turned to look at Sarah with an angry expression. "Look at yourself, crazy woman!"
Sarah was so pissed. How dare she pull her daughter's hair!
She immediately went up to Dorothy and slapped her!
"Mom!" Bianca went forward to protect Dorothy. She turned and looked at Sarah angrily. "I will make you pay for
this slap!"
"Who was the one who started the fight? Come on, are you afraid? I think one slap is not enough!" Anne was also
heated.
Sarah was Dorothy's biggest nemesis in her life. How could she sit still when being slapped by her?
She charged forward to fight with Sarah.
Even Bianca could not stop her.
Anne was afraid that Sarah might lose out and wanted to get out of bed to stop them.
Luckily, Nigel went forward to pull them away and said, "Enough!"
Dorothy burst into tears. ' Nigel, I am your wife! You are taking someone else's stance instead! Do you know how
much injustice your daughter has taken on?"
"I want to ask you too, what exactly is the matter that made you behave so unreasonably!" Nigel looked angry.
Anne got out of bed and pulled her mother to another side so that she would not get hurt.
For this pair of mother and daughter barraged in with such a drastic emotion, there was only one reason for it.
"She, your illegitimate daughter, had already given birth to three kids abroad years ago!" Dorothy pointed at Anne.
Her sharp fingers yearned to choke her to death.
Chapter 574
Sarah was immediately provoked. "Dorothy, stop making false accusations! My daughter lives chastely, and that
would never happen! Besides, I wouldn't possibly be unaware if she has children. You should get Kathryn to look
at you if you've gone mad!"
Nigel, too, felt that Dorothy's words were unbelievably ridiculous.
"Am I making a false accusation? Ask her, then. Ask her if she's given birth to triplets; ask her if those kids
belong... to Anthony!" Dorothy did not want to mention that they were Anthony's children, but she was far too
frustrated. Ever since Bianca had told her about it, she could not remain composed.
Nigel and Sarah looked at Anne dazedly and turned to glance at Bianca, who was trying her best to contain her
anger.
"Anne, this can't be true, right? Dorothy is a fool. We can't just take her word IV
Before Sarah could complete her sentence, Anne interrupted her calmly, 'I did give birth."
"You..." Sarah choked on her word. "You, what?"
Anne took a deep breath and looked up. "Three years ago, I ran into Anthony while studying abroad. We had a bit too much to drink, and an accident happened. We had not seen each other again since then, and I had not expected to get pregnant. My first reaction was to get an abortion because I was pregnant with triplets, but I was too scared to get the surgery and ran from the hospital after that. I gave birth to them in the end... ■
Sarah was barely standing on her feet. "You... You..."
Nigel was completely stunned as he had never imagined something like that to happen.
"I'm sorry..." Anne did not know what else to say. She had already given birth and raised the triplets up until now. She had never regretted her choice, and neither did she feel that she had wronged anyone.
"You heard that?" Dorothy questioned sharply. "Was she really too scared to get the abortion? She did this on purpose! Sarah, she is your daughter, after all! You knew that your man had abandoned you but still insisted on giving birth! How shameless!"
Sarah glared at her. "Do you want me to slap you again?"
"Go on! There has to be a limit to how shameless one can be, but your two have surprised me!" Dorothy pointed at Anne. "You! Take your triplets and leave!"
"That's funny! Who do you think you are? You are just a wh*re that would leave with anyone who's rich!" Sarah retorted.
"Say that again! I am going to tear that mouth open! This is between my husband and me. A homewrecker like you has no place to talk about this." Dorothy turned to look at Nigel like she was the one being bullied. "This is all Anne's fault! What should Bianca do? It's bad enough that I need to suffer, but why should Bianca have to suffer as well?"
Tears scrolled down Bianca's face.
"Where are the kids now?" Nigel asked Anne.
"... In the Royal Mansion," she said.
"Anthony has just found out?" Nigel asked.
"Yes. I have kept this a secret the whole time. Had he not insisted on keeping me here, he would have never
discovered the kids," Anne said.
"This is madness!" Nigel was furious at the situation.
Anne lowered her gaze guiltily.
Nigel was both angry and sympathetic at the same time. It had to be difficult to give birth to triplets alone in a
foreign country, especially when Anthony was the father.
Bianca was Anthony's fiance, and the situation simply could not be more complicated.
"You know everything now. I'm the victim here. Anthony and I are about to get married soon, and this happened.
Anne, what exactly are you trying to do?" Bianca said gloomily.
Chapter 575
Anne froze at the mention that Anthony and Bianca were getting married when the issue with the children had not
been resolved yet.
"Mom, let's go!" Bianca said.
'That's it?"
"So long as I'm breathing, I won't let them get what they want!’ Bianca said before turning to leave.
Dorothy scanned Anne and Sarah and said, "Don't dream of getting Anthony to value you simply because you
gave birth to three kids!"
Sarah chuckled darkly. "Who are you talking about? No one wants that!" She turned around to scold Anne but
could not bring herself to say anything when she saw the gloomy look on Anne’s face.
'What did Anthony say?" Nigel asked.
"He said he is definitely keeping the kids, and he won't let me see them..." Anne said sorrowfully.
'Who does he think he is? You gave birth and raised those kids. What exactly did he give? Fine, you did try to hide this from him, but that's not a legitimate reason for him to keep you and the kids apart!” Sarah said in disagreement.
"Let's talk to Anthony once he's calmed down. We all need to sit down and talk about this,' Nigel said.
His elder daughter was about to get married when his younger daughter was found to be the mother of Anthony's children. Someone was bound to lose in this situation and his only fear was that even after negotiation, Anthony would still marry Bianca and refuse to give up on the children.
Dorothy and Bianca got into the car, driven by their assistant. The two were still extremely frustrated as the car left the hospital.
'If we knew that she was pregnant back then, we would have tried everything to get rid of her children instead of letting her give birth to them! " Dorothy said angrily.
Bianca sat quietly like she was frozen in time.
'What do you want to do? Are you going to call off the engagement with Anthony?"
"Impossible!" Bianca finally reacted. "I will officially become Mrs. Marwood once I marry him. By then, Anne could have given birth to more children, which wouldn't help her!"
"That's my girl. Don't get disheartened. Only the wife's children are counted, and anyone else would be nothing but
bast*rds! It's just frustrating to have three kids to share Anthony's money with!"
'They have to be capable of sharing his wealth. No parents on earth would like spoiled children, especially for
ambitious men like Anthony," Bianca said.
'So you have a plan?" Dorothy noticed something from Bianca's words.
'I'm going to be a good stepmother to them and raise them before chasing them out of the Marwood family in the
end, making sure that my children are the ones who inherit what Anthony passes down." Bianca regained her
composure as she reached a conclusion. "That's what happens in most wealthy families anyway."
Dorothy sighed. "I just wanted you to lead an easier life, unlike mine that's plagued with Sarah's presence. Who
would have known that you would suffer the same? I will always be on your side, and your dad won't stand idly by
as well."
Dorothy was confident in how much Nigel loved his children, so they did not have to worry about Anne.
Nigel would not be able to side with any one of his daughters, and as long as he remained neutral, they could
handle Sarah and Anne on their own.
