Chapter 1535


    Lucas saw that something was troubling her and instantly understood what was going on.


    “I just remembered that I have something to take care of, so I’ll first be taking my leave.” Lucas stood


    up, but he stopped in his tracks as he was walking forward. As if he had just remembered something,


    he asked, “Could you give me your number? Perhaps I might have some matters in Luton that I would


    like your help with.”


    It took Anne a brief moment before she said, “Oh, alright…”


    Then, she gave her contact number to Lucas, and he left.


    Anne was thinking that she only gave him her contact number, so it probably did not mean anything,


    did it?


    She has always felt that she owed it to Lucas, so she could not reject him.


    After that, Anne was prepared to get up and wait outside. However, she noticed the server at the cafe


    running to the customers at every table to tell them something. All the customers were slightly shocked


    when they heard what the server said, then they left the cafe.


    The server apologized to the customers one by one. When he saw Anne, he walked over and asked,


    “Miss, do you need me to get you a fresh pot of coffee?”


    Anne, who was watching all the customers leave the cafe, regained her senses when the server asked


    her that question. She finally understood what was going on.


    It was because someone had made a block booking for the entire cafe, so they were clearing the


    customers out!


    There was no need to ask who was the one who did it as it was evident.


    A ck Rolls Loyce upied her entire field of vision from a distance, and it stopped in front of her in a


    domineering and mighty manner.


    The car door opened and a pair of long legs stepped out of it. There was no doubt that Anthony’s


    appearance could make the air feel pressured. He has a mighty air to him, and he was so kingly that


    nobody dared to go near him.


    “Why are you standing and waiting here?”


    “It’s time to go pick up the children,” said Anne.


    “If we pick them up every day, we’ll spoil them.” Anthony held Anne’s hand and walked into the cafe.


    The owner of the cafe and the servers had never received such an eminent person who seemed so far


    away from them, so they weed him so respectfully that their backs were bent at a 90–degree


    angle.


    They took their seats. It was still the same spot that Anne was sitting at, but she was with Anthony


    instead of Lucas.


    It was impossible for Anne not to be nervous. It was her natural instinct to have negative emotions


    when facing Anthony as it was already etched in her bones.


    Anthony has reserved the entire ce. If he did not ask the servers at the cafe, he would not know that


    she was actually not alone and that the person who had coffee with her wasa man.


    “Are you not happy to have coffee with him? Hmm?” Anthony poured himself a cup of coffee while


    staring at Anne’s face. His gaze was so sharp that it could pierce through her body.


    “No.” Anne denied.


    “Why didn’t you give me a call if you’re having coffee alone?”


    Anne looked dazed a little and said, “Don’t you have to work?”


    “How can work be more important than you?” Anthony said it very naturally, and his gaze got even


    more domineering.


    Anne, however, felt a little awkward. She pursed her lips and mumbled, “You’re not even afraid that


    yourpany will fail.”


    Anthony smiled, and he put the cup of coffee that he poured in front of her.” It won’t fail even if I were to


    stay at home every day.”


    Anne did not doubt that. Anthony’s business acumen should never be taken lightly. He has so much


    capital that he could fill the ocean with it.


    Even if he were to stay at home, he could also strategize, givemands, and control everything from


    home.


    “Do you have nothing else that you want to tell me?”


    Anne was dazed for a moment before her expression returned to normal. “What? I don’t have anything


    to tell you.”


    Anthony’s ck eyes stared at the coffee in his hands with a darkened gaze. He pursed his lips, then


    he looked toward Anne.


    “…What’s the matter?”


    “Nothing.”


    Anne felt sheepish but she did not show it.


    She thought that she should not be mentioning Lucas to avoid making past mistakes again.


    That was something she was most reluctant to ept…


    Both of them had coffee for an hour before leaving the cafe.


    They got into the Rolls Loyce, and the car left the cafe before it was buried in the traffic in the distance.


    Lucas was sitting in the car that was parked along the street.

    He said he was leaving, but in fact, he did not leave.


    He was watching as Anthony’s car appeared and left.
