Anthony tossed his jacket onto the sofa. His black shirt hung on his tall and well-built torso though he looked aggressive. 

 

Anne lowered her gaze as she had not completely forgotten about that night. She knew how muscular and sexy his body was. 

“Why…why did you bring me here?” she asked fearfully. 

She dared not to speak up in front of this powerful being. 

Yet, after she spoke, she heard a rumbling sound coming from her starving tummy. 

 

Anne felt embarrassed. Since arriving, she had not eaten anything. The exhaustion from running and the flight were finally catching up with her. 

Anthony said coldly, “You’re hungry. Serve the food!” 

From the other end, a middle-aged man in working clothes brought over a bowl of hot soup and placed it on the table. 

“Mr. Marwood, the seafood soup is ready.” The butler, Hayden, announced before stepping aside politely. It was as if he had never existed. 

When Anne heard the word ‘seafood’, her face turned pale. 

“You may have your dinner,” Anthony said with cold eyes. 

“I’m…allergic to seafood. I can’t eat this,” Anne said in her shivering voice. 

She had a severe seafood allergy. Once she had seafood, the symptoms could even take her life! She had experienced this before… 

“So you’re going to put my effort to waste?” Anthony’s eyes were filled with hatred. 

Anne understood it. Anthony had done this on purpose. He wanted to kill her! 

“No…I can’t eat it. I will die…” Anne resisted and backed away. 

Anthony went forward, grabbed her arm, and tossed her toward the table. “Eat it!” 

“Argh!” 

Anne fell onto the table, and the bag she was holding fell two to three meters from her. 

Since she was rushing to turn off her phone, she did not zip up her bag, resulting in her phone falling out. 

Anne could not care less about her hurting knees. She stared at the now exposed phone anxiously.
