Chapter 1230

When she took her first sip, her tongue felt so painful that she frowned and she almost threw thespoon away.

However, she knew if she did not have her meals obediently, she would never be able to leave thisplace earlier, so she did not dare to play any tricks.

Up until that point, she still could not figure out how Anthony found out Lucas came

over.

That was too scary, was it not?

“Slow down,” Kathryn reminded her.

Anne held the spoon and stirred the liquid in the bowl. Truth be told, with her tongue injured, herappetite was greatly affected.

The sound of the door opening could be heard coming from the living room.

Anthony came over, sat at the table, and asked, “How's the recovery of her wound?”

Of course, this question was meant for Kathryn.

Kathryn replied to him, “Not too well.” Seeing that Anthony did not say anything, she took theinitiative to leave.

Anne's gaze was downcast and she was stirring the liquid in her bowl. There were all sorts ofsupplements added to the chicken soup, which was absolutely a good nutritious food for her, whohad not consumed anything for the whole day.

"Have you eaten?” Anne still asked him in a “friendly’ manner.

“Mm-hmm.” Anthony's black eyes were staring right at her. “Are you not curious how I found outabout Lucas?”

Anne swallowed the food in her mouth with difficulty before she lifted her curious gaze to look ather. “...Was it my reaction in the room at that time?”

"Your reaction and also the traces of the steel plate scratching on the railing.” Anthony had turnedaround and gone inside at that time, but he had gone to investigate again after that.

Anne thought she already acted very calmly at that time.

She did not expect that she still gave herself away.

Anthony was born with shrewdness and a reserved personality, and he would only

get even more frightening.

He did not question her on the spot, but he caught them in the act instead. Anybody would befrightened to the point of losing their souls.

With a grip on her chin, Anne was forced to lift her face to face him.

Those deep, unfathomable, and cold black eyes made her nervous.

“Do you regret it?”

“Actually...you don't have to have such a huge reaction. I'm your wife. My body and my heartbelonged to you alone,” Anne was saying words that were pleasant to the

ears.

“You want to go out, don't you?”

Anne was exposed and her lashes trembled a little, and then she asked, “Can 1?"

Anthony pulled his hand back. “It's almost time for the children to meet their mother.”

Anne felt relieved. Anthony finally yielded.

That night, Anne still could not escape Anthony's crazy possessiveness

Anne turned to her side to face the curtains. Her breath was quick and shaky, and even her gazeappeared to be glazed over. She was like a fish that was on the brink of dying.

On the other hand, Anthony, who was behind her, hugged her once again, and his thin lips werestuck to the back of her neck, which immobilized her as if her fatal weakness was being bitten by aferocious beast.

Anne was so frightened that her body trembled severely. “It's time for bed.”

“That can wait. There's still plenty of time before sunrise.”

When Anne woke up, it was already past noon.

There was no sign of Anthony beside her.

She touched the place next to her and did not feel any trace of warmth on it. She did

not know when he left, but it certainly had been a long time.

It was already so late, after all.

Anne got out of bed with exhaustion, walked out of the room, and saw an insulated food containeron the dining table.

She knew it was Kathryn who placed it there.

Anne put all of her attention on the main entrance. She walked over and stood in front of the door.She lifted her nervous hand and turned the door knob. The door was not locked from the outsideand it was opened immediately.

A click was heard and Anne’s body shuddered along with the sound.

The door opened!

Joy instantly came all over her. She was finally able to walk out of there!

She felt tears welling in her eyes and were almost about to stream down!

She pulled the door open, walked out of there, and stood in the corridor to taste the feeling ofgetting out of a cage.
