Chapter 230
Chapter 230 Anne called the school and let the children take the school bus to her neighborhood. Lucas could not help but call her and ask, “What happened?”
Anne knew she needed a reason to bring the children back, and Lucas would surely be suspicious, so she replied, “Anthony found out that I went to your place. He was investigating me, and I‘m afraid he might find the child.”
“... Did he do anything to you?”
“Not to me, but my mom...he punished my mom for the things I did. But thankfully, she‘s alright, so don‘t worry.”
“What a lunatic!” The well–mannered Lucas could not help but curse.
Anne completely agreed with him. Anthony was a through–and–through lunatic!
“I‘ll let Nancy go with the children. It‘s easier to confuse him if she stays in the same building, ” Lucas said.
Anne was touched and became teary. “You don‘t have to treat me so well...” “I‘m used to having the children living with me, and I‘ll surely find it odd when they‘re not around. But thankfully, I‘m their principal, and I can still see them during the day,” Lucas said.
Anne was really grateful, but she could not say anything. “I still believe that if you can‘t leave Luton, you should directly face Anthony. After all, they‘re his children, so he won‘t do anything to them.”
“I–I‘ll think about it…” Anne said.
After hanging up the call, Anne sat there in a daze.
Should she tell Anthony?
She never rushed to think about such issues or the consequences.
She knew exactly what kind of devil Anthony was.
No matter how vicious a person was, Anne believed they would not harm their own children. However, she had also heard that if the father did not like the mother.
Anne was more worried that Anthony would take the children away and never let them near her again. She had been taking care of the children since they were born. Asking her to give them up would undoubtedly feel like cutting off the flesh from her body piece by piece.
Why... Why could she not be on good terms with Anthony?
Why did the grievances of the previous generation affect her...
Anne could not even bring herself to hate her own mother...
When Anne returned to the company, Xander acted as if nothing had happened. He did not know how to face her, but he still smiled brightly at her.
Anne ignored him.
She would definitely need to bring the children back. Fortunately, there was a rental house just above, and the rent in this area was relatively cheap. She first contacted the landlord and rented the house. Then, she thought of going to visit Sarah before bringing the children back. Even if Sarah was not seriously injured, she still had to see her. After all, she did swear on Sarah‘s life, and she felt guilty. Anne called Sarah. “What? You‘re at the hospital?”
Anne found the hospital ward and saw Sarah half–leaning on the bed. Her body seemed fine, and the bruises on her face had lightened. However, it was obvious how seriously Sarah had been wounded before.
“I‘m fine. But... my ribs are cracked, and other soft tissues are damaged. I‘m much better now. The doctor said that I could be discharged in a week.” Anne‘s anger was followed by intense helplessness and agony. Anthony was ruthless! Then again, even Gregory suffered horrible consequences. There was nothing Anthony could not do… Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
