Chapter 182 She lowered her gaze when he leaned in closer. She felt the cold air when her woundwas exposed and the warmth of his breath
on her skin.
Anne gazed up to meet Lucas’s eyes and felt her pulse speeding.
"Did Anthony do this?” He asked.
She looked away frantically.
"No.
I drank too much last night and fell.
It’s true.J'm sorry for not being there when you went all the way there to pickme up.
I didn’t expect Anthony to be having dinner there as well and he just forced me into his car..." "What exactly does he want?" Lucas asked
calmly.
”l...my aunt married into the Marwood family and he resents me because of that.
It’s been going on for a while now, so I’ve gotten used to it," she explained gloomily.
Lucas must already know about the situation, but what he did not know was why Anthony would resent Anne’s mother somuch that he had to vent his anger on Anne, in Anthony's eyes, Sarah was a homewrecker and Anne was the daughter of the homewrecker that destroyed his family.
"Have you tried thinking of a way to resolve this?" "He gave me half a year, but I don’t thinkit would take that long.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
He has someone he likes and she’s come back recently so he doesn't care much about me now.
I just ran into him by accident last night." "Half a year..." Lucas muttered.
"Nothing will happen during this time.
Anthony cares a lot about that woman,” she stressed, ignoring the fact that Anthony tried to force himself on her the night before, because nothing happenedin the end.
'Nothing will happen from now on,’ she thought to herself, "everything will get better.’ Her heart skipped a beat when theireyes met and she immediately looked away.
Lucas picked up his mug that he had set down by the fences and took a sip.
The night breeze was cool and comforting.
With fiery bouquets and stars of gold in the background, the atmosphere was peaceful but slightly awkward.
"I...I will go check on the kids,” she said.
"Sure." He nodded.
She went inside to stay with the children.
"Mama, look at my fighting skills.
It’s super cool!” Charlie waved his toy knife as he moved around actively.
"Mama, watch cartoons with me," Chloe leaned onto Anne’s legs.
Chris brought her a book and asked, "Mama, what does this word mean?"
Anne responded to each of them and turned to glance at the balcony where Lucaswas staring into the night while enjoying his coffee.
She was suddenly reminded of what Anthony had said to her before, asking who she was acting the virtuous woman for, she tried asking herself if it was becauseof Lucas and knew instantly that he had nothing to do with her decisions.
She did not dare to consider finding someone when she was already a mother of three andeven if she did like Lucas, she felt that her
admiration would merely be an insult to the man.
At night, she put the triplets to bed and Chloe clung to her.
"Mama, are you not living here with Daddy?" "We can all sleep together!" "Daddy wants Mama to sleep here as well!" Chris said.
"Mr.
Newman said that?" Anne asked in surprise.
"No.
I just think he would want you to stay," Chris said.
Anne chuckled and pinched him on the cheek.
"Mama can’t stay.
I’ve already caused Mr.
Newman a lot of trouble for leaving you here.” Charlie leaned against Anne's shoulder from behind.
"Don't worry, Mama.
