Chapter 992
Anne turned away and bit her lip wordlessly. Before long, she heard Anthony chuckling. She shot him a confused look and muttered, “Don’t…don’t laugh at me.”
“I’m not laughing.”
“You are.”
“Did you see it?” He teased.
“I heard you…” Anne said. She was unsure as Anthony was never one to show emotions, so he rarely smiled at her.
Anthony wiped her tears away; her face was hardly even the size of his palm and the realization struck him.
“I didn’t leave. I just went to get you food.”
Anne turned to look at the nightstand and spotted a bowl. If she guessed correctly, it was probably a bowl of soup.
At noon, apart from desserts, she would always be made to drink beauty collagen drinks.
“Any sugar in it?” She whispered.
He grabbed the bowl and fed her a spoonful. “Try it.”
She accepted it and tasted a hint of sweetness. “They put sugar in it.”
“Really? Let me try.”
Anne had thought that he meant that he wanted to try the drink, and was shocked when he devoured her lips instead.
He let her go shortly after and licked his lips. “Indeed, there’s sugar in this.”
She looked away with a blush, before glancing back at him. She was certain that he was laughing at her because of how horrendous she looked earlier.
Feeling increasingly irritated, she punched him on the chest. “You are so mean. I don’t want to talk to you anymore…”
“Who do you want to talk to, then?” He grabbed her hand and asked.
“I’m not telling you.” She pouted with a dark expression on her face. “Who…was it that called you just now?”
“Oliver.”
“Do you need to go back to work?”
“It can wait until tomorrow.”
“Anne, it’s Ashlynn. Are you home?”
“I’m at…at my aunt’s place,” Anne said.
“Is it okay if we go over now?”
“Sure.” Anne provided her address and hung up.
She was not certain about what kind of person Ashlynn was. All she knew was that Ashlynn was once her assistant and became her uncle’s wife afterward, so Anne assumed that Ashlynn should be a great person.
‘Did she say ‘we‘? Who else is coming over?‘ Anne thought.
She got up to see if there were any snacks she could serve her guests and contemplated whether she should take them to the Royal Mansion.
Since she could not find anything, Anne decided to go downstairs.
Marco happened to be in the same area and was taking a walk to look for any sign of Lilian. After all, she could still be alive even though she fell into the Noxus River.
He soon spotted Anne standing by a building, waiting for someone. He was about to walk over when he saw a familiar–looking Bently driving toward Anne.
As soon as he had a clear look at the car plate, Marco’s expression darkened and he immediately hid under the shadows.
