There was an appointment that night, and they had to work overtime. 

 

At six in the evening, Anne was about to eat the bread she had prepared when her phone rang. She saw the caller ID and answered, “I’m working overtime.” 

“And I’m bringing you a delicious meal.” 

Anne walked to the reception and saw Tommy waiting for her. 

She walked over and said, “Didn’t I say that you don’t have to send me food?” 

 

“Not even once?” Tommy saw her standing there. He grabbed her small wrist and pulled her over. 

When he touched her, she jolted and had no choice but to sit on the chair. 

She saw the meal prepared for one person. 

“Why’re you so nice to me?” Anne asked. 

Tommy had a gentle look as he answered, “I’ll be nice to you, and all you have to do is to accept it. No pressure. Just like how it was when you were at the Marwood Mansion. If you’d like to, you can even call me brother.” 

Brother…Anne looked down. All her nightmares started when she called Anthony ‘brother’. 

Therefore, she had no courage to call Tommy her ‘brother’. 

She should not have met Tommy this many times… 

“If you don’t eat now, it will get cold and my effort will be wasted.” Tommy reached over to ruffle her hair. He took care of her like a sister. 

Anne fixed her hair and complained, “I’m not a child. Why do you touch my hair.” 

Tommy laughed and replied, “Alright, I won’t. Eat.” 

Looking at Anne’s adorable face, he thought that Anne, who was twenty-one, was merely a kid to him. 

“Right, how’s Mr. Weir?” Anne recalled. 

“He established the clinic and nurtured the clinic like his child. Yet, he was forced to sell it. Most importantly, the buyer did not even show up and bought him out with money. He must have felt horrible,” Tommy said. 

“Is the buyer very powerful? Who is he?” Anne was curious. Was he as powerful as Tommy? 

If he were not powerful, Tommy would have been able to help Robin, but it was apparent that he could not. 

Anne hoped that there was someone to beat Anthony… 

“I heard he’s someone from the Archduke Group, so I can’t help Robin,” Tommy said. 

Hearing that, Anne’s only hope vanished. Her face turned even paler.
