Chapter 1486


    It was the same number as the man from Tianya.


    “Why is he calling?’ She thought, ‘Have they noticed that Anthony is here?’


    Noticing the odd look on Anne’s face, Anthony asked, “What’s wrong?”


    “It’s nothing. This is probably from Yuri. I need to take this.” Anne entered the bathroom, shutting the


    door tightly behind her, before answering the call. “Hello?”


    “Anthony Marwood is here, right? When are you doing it?” The altered man’s voice came through the


    line.


    Anne’s heart raced, terrified by the Tianya’s connectionwork to find out that Anthony was here


    within hours of Anthonynding.


    “Is there a problem?”


    “I’m making preparations. You don’t have to urge me.”


    “You are leaving together, right? If you are not killing him here, are you going to do it in Luton? Killing


    him here is easier.”


    Anne tensed at the feeling of being watched, wondering why Anthony did not notice anything.

    “I have my own way of doing this.”


    “You can’t do it, can you?”, The man asked.


    “…I can.”


    “You have one hour. If Anthony Marwood is still alive by then, I’m killing your friend.”


    Realizing that something was not right, Anne asked, “What are you talking about?”


    “I’ll let you hear for yourself!” The man said and a woman’s wail came through the phone.


    Anne shivered. “Y-Yuri?”


    “I have her with me. Kill Anthony Marwood, and I will release her.”


    “Don’t hurt her!” Anne panicked.


    “I told you that she will be fine as long as you kill Anthony Marwood.”


    “This mission is supposed to bepleted by the two of us. It’s going to be far more difficult to


    aplish on my own. An hour isn’t enough,” Anne said.


    “No. An hour is more than enough.”


    “What are you doing to Y-” Before she could finish, the call ended. “Hello? Hello!”


    She desperately tried to dial the number again, only to realize that the man had shut the phone off.


    “Bast*rd!” She roared and tried to regain herposure.


    Yuri had failed to answer her calls because the people from Tianya were caught, and likely had been


    torturing her.


    Anne squeezed her eyes shut, knowing that she had to rescue Yuri.


    Just then, someone knocked on the door and she heard Anthony’s husky voiceing from the other


    side. “Anne?”


    She jolted in shock, but immediately started to adjust herself so that Anthony would not be rmed.


    She took a few deep breaths and opened the door. “What’s the rush?”


    “You’ve been in here for too long, so I came to check on you.” He stared into her eyes.


    Anne walked past him and headed for the hall. “You are the one who needs to be checked o -umph!”


    Before she could finish, Anthony turned her around and pulled her into his embrace.


    His shadow loomed over her as he nted a kiss on her lips. “What did you say on the phone with your


    friend?”


    Anne did not push him away and simply tilted her head to the side. “We just need to wait for a while


    longer. Is that okay?”


    “Sure,” Anthony agreed, not knowing that Anne was trying to find a way to deal with him.
