Chapter 987
Anthony was about to get into the car, before he turned around and walked back to Anne.
Anne had thought that he needed to say something, but he simply covered the triplets‘ eyes with both
his hands and pressed his lips against hers, giving her a nibble before finally letting go.
The triplets did not know what had happened, and only noticed that their father had gotten into the car
and their mother’s face was flushing like a ripped apple.
Anne apanied the children to draw in the living room when her phone rang. She nced over and
saw Anthony’s name on the screen, so she took her phone with her as she walked outside.
“Anthony…”
“I’m noting home for lunch.”
“Oh, you are having lunch in the office?”
“Yeah. I will go backter in the afternoon.”
“Sure. I’ll let you get back to work.”
“Good girl.”
“I…I’m not a child…” Anne kept getting a feeling that
Anthony was treating her like a child.
“I agree,” he said in a seductive tone.
Anne could sense that he meant something else, but could not figure what it was.
After the call, she remained standing outside thoughtfully.
“Are you thinking about Mr. Marwood, Mrs. Marwood?” Mia came over and asked with a smile.
Anne blushed. “No, I’m not thinking about him…”
“If you miss him, you can go to his office to look for him! ” Mia said.
“He’s busy. I don’t want to disturb him.” Anne wanted to, but did not want to get in Anthony’s way.
“Why don’t you deliver lunch for him? Mr. Marwood is so busy and he might forget to eat,” Mia
suggested.
Anne realized that Mia was right. Anthony would eventually have to eat and delivering lunch for him
seems like a legitimate excuse for a visit. However, she had never done so before and felt slightly
unsure.
“Go ahead, Mrs. Marwood! He will be surprised if he sees you!” Mia dragged Anne to the living room
and into the kitchen.
“Really?” Anne asked with uncertainty.
“Of course! There’s a saying that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach!”
In the end, Anne packed lunch for Anthony with Hayden’s help. The main meal was ced inside a
lunchbox along with a small container filled with soup, and another container with desserts.
“Mr. Marwood has a stomach issue, so it’s best that he finishes the soup first before eating the rest.
The soup we made here is definitely more nutritiouspared to the ones outside.” Hayden could not
agree to what Anne nned on doing more as he was pleased that Anthony and Anne were getting
along.
“I will take the children with me,” Anne said, intending to draw strength from her triplets.
“You should go alone, Mrs. Marwood. With the kids there, you and Mr. Marwood won’t be able to have
the room to yourselves,” Mia said.
“Mia is right. You should go alone, Mrs. Marwood,” Hayden agreed with a smile.
Anne went into a car with the lunchbox in her hands and left the Royal Mansion.
She arrived at the Archduke Group a little over half an hourter and the driver helped to carry the
lunchbox. ” Mrs. Marwood, I can help to carry this up.
“It’s fine. I’ll do it myself,” she refused.

She stepped into Anthony’s private elevator and reached the highest floor of the building.
As she reached the office, she knocked and when there was no response, she pushed the door open
and went inside.
Anthony was nowhere to be found and she set the lunchbox onto the coffee table, wondering if he was
not in the office.
“Anthony, we can’t do this. Anne will be devastated if she finds out about us,” Bianca’s voice came from
the lounge.
