Chapter 596


    She rubbed Chloe''s butt and said, ’Mama will help you rub the pain away."


    "Papa did that, too!" Chloe said.


    "Is that so?" Anne did not feel reassured.


    If Anthony truly cared for the children, he should have avoided such a thing to happen to begin with. The children


    were still so young and only a heartless person would raise their hand on them.


    ’What a vicious woman she is!'' Anne thought. ''She is going to be a mother someday. Is she not afraid of


    karma at all?''


    ''Is Bianca spending the night here tonight?" Anne asked.


    "No. She made me cry and left without apologizing!" Chloe pouted.


    Anne held her children close to make them feel safe until they fell asleep.


    Even when she was asleep, Chloe still kept her hold onto one of Anne''s fingers.


    Charlie was lying next to her and Chris was right next to Charlie, the four of themid side by side like


    they used to, but Anne could not sleep until the situation was resolved.


    She studied her children''s faces for a while, before getting up to leave the room.


    When she returned to the study room, Anthony was still there and she stood in the distance. "Even if I


    only want custody for my daughter, you won''t agree, will you?"


    "Should I agree?" He stared into her eyes, showing no intention ofpromising.


    She bit on her lower lip and said, ''1 won''t ever leave Luton even if you ask me to, so if I get to keep my


    daughter, she will still get to be with Chris and Charlie. Nothing will change, okay?"


    "Would you say things like that if I didn''t find out about the kids?" He questioned darkly. "I said what I


    had to say at noon. There''s no more room for discussion."

    "Anthony, you have to be reasonable! I gave birth to them. You can''t just take them away!"


    ''Would you be able to give birth to them without me?"


    "But I can''t have any more children from now on..." She mumbled gloomily.


    He stared at her intently. "The kids will stay with me, but you cane to visit them."


    She looked up dazed, knowing that he meant to say that he was not giving her the custody of her


    children, but he would not stop her from seeing them either.


    Still, that meant the children could not live with her and that alone was no different from taking her


    children away from her.


    "From today onward, you are free," Anthony said.


    Anne stood nkly, not feeling any gratitude toward his words. Even if she had regained her identity,


    she could not go anywhere when her children were with Anthony.


    She was chained to Luton for the sake of her children, where Anthony could monitor her without him having to


    actively stop her from leaving.


    "Anthony, can you-"


    "No."


    "But will Bianca be happy about this? She now has three children before you even get married. I heard that she''s


    not getting along with the children. They might be mistreated..." She pointed out.


    ''I am right here. There''s nothing you need to be worried about," he said darkly.


    Anne did not run her mouth, but wanted to say that the children were only suffering because Anthony insisted on


    siding with Bianca. Anthony was only acting so cruel because he did not like the mother of his children. He did not


    have to take custody of the children, he simply did not want Anne to be happy.


    "Chloe looks just like me. Can you really treat her well?" She asked.


    "Rx. Your children are not you. You are different."


    She lowered her gaze with resignation. "Anthony, I really hope that this is thest time I hear that Bianca is bullying


    my children, otherwise... I will bring Bianca down to hell with me if I have to." She stared into his eyes fearlessly,


    before leaving and going back upstairs.
