Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies novel Chapter 182

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...I'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.

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.

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.

With fiery bouquets and stars of gold in the background, the atmosphere was peaceful but slightly awkward.
