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.”

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 got drunk last night and left her phone with the CFO,” Nigel explained. “She disappeared for the entire night and you are saying that it‘s all just a coincidence? Dad, you just believe her more, right? Do you not care about how I feel?” Bianca sobbed. Nigel‘s heart softened at the sight of his daughter crying. “Of course, not. When have I ever act like

I want him to be on my side no matter what.” Bianca was overwhelmed by rage and jealousy at the moment. “Of course! Your dad raised you, and Anne is just an illegitimate child.
