Chapter 387 

Damian would not be foolish enough to do something, knowing that he would appear suspicious. 

Anne wondered if Anthony had found anything and after what happened at noon, she could not quite ask him about it. 

She had always been wary toward Anthony. 

Anthony had kept his words for Nigel‘s sake, but she had broken the pack and allowed Anthony to touch her, so there might happen again and there would be no end to it. 

 

Anne sighed with resignation and checked the missed calls on her phone to find that Nigel had called her twice around noon. 

She walked out of the Archduke Group and called him back as she walked toward the subway station. “Dad, what‘s wrong?” “Did you go to work today?” Nigel asked. She subconsciously wanted to hide her track, but the fact that she did not go to work was not exactly a secret, so he would see right through her if she tried to lie. 

“No.” 

“Today‘s not a Sunday. Did you take leave?” 

“I had a bit too much to drink last night during our company‘s gathering. My head is still hurting, so I applied for sick leave today. I just went to the office to take my purse and phone, so I didn‘t get your call.”

I believe you.” Nigel hung up and went back to the living room. Both Dorothy and Bianca were waiting gloomily as they looked to Nigel for answers. He sat down and said, “I asked Anne, and she said that she wasn‘t with Anthony last night.” “And you believe her? She‘s full of bullsh*t!” Bianca accused. “Yeah. Why would someone say that she was with Anthony if they didn‘t see them together?” Dorothy took her daughter‘s side. “Why didn‘t she answer her phone at noon if nothing happened?” Bianca questioned. “It has to be because she was otherwise engaged.” “That‘s not it.

She could not understand why Anne would be such a threat when she was far superior in terms of looks and talents. Seeing how frustrated she was, Dorothy suggested, “I‘m just worried that your dad might start connecting with Sarah again through Anne.” “What?” Alarmed, Bianca said, “will Sarah try to seduce

If you get pregnant, you won‘t be his fiance anymore, but Mrs. Marwood!” Bianca quieted down hesitantly. “You haven‘t gotten pregnant yet. Is there a problem?” Dorothy looked at Bianca‘s belly
