Chapter 1289

The Pinnacle Academy had faced crises before, but had survived all of them.

However, it had not been long since the last crisis. Anne did not know if what happened the lasttime was an accident, but this time was definitely caused by Anthony because he had mentionedthat Lucas would pay for what he did.

She had reached out to Lloyd immediately for help, because she knew that begging Anthony forhelp would not do. She was the one who put Lucas in this situation,

when she never wanted to owe Lucas anything.

“Anthony is going to push me over the edge at some point..." She thought.

When the door opened, she immediately switched channels.

Anthony walked into the bedroom and saw Anne switching between channels on the television withno reaction to his appearance at all. He walked over and sat down next to her, before wrapping anarm around her wrist. “In a bad mood? I'm in a great mood, though. Do you know why?"

“Why?

“Didn“t you see it on the television?”

She froze and started trembling, knowing that he had seen right through her.

He grabbed her by the chin and forced her to turn and face him. “You know that begging for mercywon't help, so you decided that you just won't say anything, hm?”

"Yes. I know that you will do whatever you want in the end. Why bother talking about it with me? Doyou think I would feel great about putting someone in that situation?” Tears welled in her eyes. “Iwill never forget what I owe him!"

"Are you trying to say that you will remember him for life?” Storm gathered within his eyes. “Are yousure that's what you are saying?”

Tension in the room rose and her blood ran cold.

“If you are scared, you should think before you speak!” He tightened his grip.

She scowled in pain and paled as she panted. “Master...have mercy..."

"Calling me Master won't help you anymore.” He narrowed his eyes dangerously.

"Master..." Tears scrolled down her cheek. “Let him go and I will be forever grateful. I won't ever doanything that upset you again.”

*Are you sure that you want to plead for another man?” Anthony became increasingly agitated."You know that's not what I mean...” Her chest tightened with sorrow and despair.

“Then shut up!” He moved closer and roared.

She quieted down in fear.

Anthony was a living minefield and anything could trigger an explosive reaction.

“I told you that Lucas won't escape and has to pay the price for what he did.” He studied her faceintently. “And you are going to watch as he suffers.”

She stared at him in tears. “You won't let him go no matter what I do, will you?”

“If you dare to hurt yourself, I will make sure that you wish you were dead!” He warned viciously.*..1 get it,” she said hoarsely. “Don’t worry. I won't mention a single word from today onward.”“Good.” He stared at her intently.

Anne did as she promised and had not pleaded for Lucas from that moment onward as sheanxiously waited for updates from Corentin.

The longer she waited, the more desperate she became. She did not dare to urge Corentin as hemight be replaceing a way to help her.

As she waited, she stayed in the Royal Mansion with the children. Anne was about to check on anynews regarding the Pinnacle Academy on her phone when...

"Mama!"

“Mama!”
