Chapter 1231


    Even as she approached her own room, she found that she had no key and could not get in.


    She stood at the doorway for a moment before returning to Julie’s apartment.


    She washed up, ate something, changed her clothes, and left.


    When she came, she had brought nothing with her; when she left, she took nothing.


    Her driver was there too, opening the door for her.


    Once she was in the car, Rick said, “Mr. Marwood asked me to wait for you here. Ms. Vallois, are we


    going to the Royal Mansion now?”


    Anne was about to say yes, but changed her mind. “To thepany.”


    “Ms. Vallois, thepany has already been acquired by the Archduke Group,” Rick said.


    “I’ll go and take a look,” Anne said, thinking that at least thepany still existed after being acquired


    by the Archduke Group.


    However, when she arrived, she found that the entire two-story building was empty. The desks were


    still there, but there was not a single employee left.


    Anne’s heart ached as she watched the empty building, and tears welled up in her eyes.


    Anthony had truly acquired thepany and disbanded it…


    He was truly heartless…


    Anne sat on the chair, feeling heartbroken and crying uncontrobly.


    The driver, Rick, could not think of anything to say as he watched her. He was just her driver.


    The phone in his pocket rang.


    Rick took out his phone and saw that it was a call from Mr. Marwood. He hurried forward and said, “Ms.


    Vallois, it’s Mr. Marwood’s call.”


    Anne did not want to answer it. She only had unquenchable hatred in her heart.


    “Ms. Vallois, shouldn’t you answer it?” the driver said, holding the phone gingerly.” What if Mr. Marwood


    gets impatient?”


    The driver was giving her a gentle reminder.


    After all, he was familiar with the recent happenings involving Anthony and Anne.


    Anne lifted her tear-stained face and gazed at the phone, which had been hung up brusquely.


    “Ms. Vallois…” The driver was flustered.


    Anne took the phone and called Anthony.


    Upon answering, Anthony seemed to realize that it was Anne who had called, and his frosty voice


    could be heard through the receiver. “Do you still wish to live in the apartment?”


    Anne struggled to suppress her anger and spoke through gritted teeth. “Anthony, did you really


    purchase my father’spany? Are you truly indifferent to this matter?”


    “I held onto my promise, and you don’t need to concern yourself with thepany’s affairs in the


    future.”


    Anne was on the verge of tears as she choked out. “Are you trying to drive me to death?”


    “Without my permission, who would dare let you die?” Anthony retorted firmly.


    Anne closed her eyes, tears streaming down her face as she attempted topose herself and said,


    “I’ll go back to the Royal Mansionter.”


    “Alright.”


    After the call ended, she handed the phone back to the driver. She looked around at the ce she had


    worked in the past, tears in her eyes.


    Was there any way to restore thepany to its former state?


    Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    Could she manage to alter Anthony’s decision in any way?


    “Hey, what a coincidence running into you here!” Bianca said as she approached, her tone dripping


    with sarcasm.


    Anne red at her coldly and remained silent.


    “Although thepany was acquired by Anthony, don’t me him. After all, you


    hold little sway in his heart.” Seeing the driver present, Bianca was reminded of the previous incident


    and became agitated.


    “I may not own thepany’s shares, but Anthony can help me seek retribution. Dad’spany will


    eventually be mine.”


    “You’re delusional!” Anne stood up, her chest heaving with anger. “Why do you think you deserve to


    call him ‘dad’? How disgusting!”


    “What do you mean by disgusting?” Bianca asked mockingly.


    Anne’s face reddened with fury.
