Chapter 131


    “Ms. Vallois‘ presence would be required.”


    Anne felt something was wrong. “Why?”


    “Do you know Lucia? She bumped into Mr. Marwood in the bar. If you don’te…” Oliver left it up to


    the imagination.


    From N?velDrama.Org.


    Anne realized the seriousness of the matter.


    She had never seen anyone who could leave untouched after provoking Anthony.


    Lucia was the only one who stood on her side among her colleagues in the Aesthetic Clinic. How could


    she turn a blind eye?


    “If you agree, I will send someone to pick you up,” Oliver said.


    “No, just give me the address.”


    Anne, who hung up the phone, looked at the three children sleeping soundly on the bed and covered


    Charlie’s belly with a nket.


    She would leave them at home.


    They would not wake up as quickly as they had just fallen asleep.


    The only thing she was afraid of was that they woke up hungry in the middle of the night and could not


    find her.


    Anne was really afraid to meet Anthony, but what about Lucia? She could not just leave her there to be


    defiled by Anthony.


    Thinking that her menstruation was notpletely over, Anthony probably would not want to touch her


    anyways.


    With this thought in mind, Anne locked the door and left the house.


    She took a taxi and went straight to the bar.


    It was the most high–end bar in the downtown area.


    It was an entirely different world inside.


    Anne asked the people at the bar to lead the way.


    It was very easy to find.


    Entering the box, before she could see Anthony and others, she was frightened by the scene on the


    stage right in front of the box.


    “Don’t touch me! I can’t…let me go!” Lucia rolled on the ground crying, her clothes almost


    torn.


    The four men surrounding her were pulling at her legs and touching her hands while Lucia was fighting


    back.


    Anne, without giving it a second thought, stepped forward and pushed one of the men away. She pulled


    Lucia up.


    Lucia was so scared that she hugged her and cried, “Help me…help me…


    “It’s alright. It’s alright…” Anne turned her face to look at the audience watching the show. Her line of


    sight caught Anthony’s warm ck eyes, and she could not hide her anger.


    She let go of Lucia, walked off the stage, and stood in front of Anthony.


    She really wanted to curse at him violently and tell him off!


    She knew that would be of no help.


    She would probably have to suffer along with Lucia.


    Everyone in the box respected Anthony. Naturally, no one will speak for them as puny littlemoners


    they were!


    Anne suppressed her inner emotions and kept her calm. “Can you let her go?”


    Anthony did not get what he expected and was surprised. “Give me a reason.”


    “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t provoke you. It was my fault…” It was not the first time Anne had bowed her head


    in front of Anthony and admitted her mistake.


    She had be ustomed to it.


    “Why do you think what happened to her is because of you?” Anthony raised his hand and pointed at


    Lucia, who was feeling embarrassed on the stage.


    Anne was speechless.


    She stood there like an idiot.


    L


    “Did I tell you to stop?” Anthony roared violently at the men, causing Anne’s body to tremble. Lucia cried


    again.


    Anne looked at Anthony, who was drinking indifferently, her shoulders slumping.


    In the entire box, except the ones on the stage, no one else dared to make a sound.


    Anne took a few deep breaths and sat down beside Anthony.


    After his ss was empty, she poured the wine for him, her voice softening, “Don’t be angry, I will make


    friends with your consent in the future, and I will stay away from irrelevant people.


    “I


    Anthony turned his face away. His ck eyes were dark and unrevealing.
