Phil acted calm and peaceful while he was talking with Trevon on the phone just now. But it wasn’t necessarily true in reality.
He felt heartbroken though he was disappointed with his parents long ago.
But, he couldn’t imagine Cara would be heartless and cruel like this. He forgave her for not caring about him, but now she was gonna kill his child only to satisfy her ambition of pursuing fame and wealth.
Though Trevon told him she was just saying it out of rage, Phil was pretty sure that she would definitely take action. She was so bullheaded and tough and she would never let it go at that.
He believed Trevon knew it quite well, otherwise, he could have saved the trouble of calling and reminding him of it. He must know clearly that Cara was going to do something evil.
Phil pursed his lips in silence for quite a moment. Then he called Gaven and told him to get down to some matters.
Since she was gonna do something evil, he would fight evil with evil. It was fair.
Of course, Phil didn’t tell Anya a word about it after she woke up from the nap. He didn’t want to trouble or worry her. Now that he was there to protect her, he would take care of everything in the dark.
“Hey, you stay here all day long. Are you sure everything is fine in the company?” said Anya. She felt a bit weak since she had just woken up. Then she leaned over the dining table and asked him with anxiety.
Phil poured a glass of water for her and teased her, “Why? Are you worried that I can’t afford to feed the baby?”
Anya pouted and snorted, “No way! I’ve never expected you to feed the baby. I can raise the baby on my own.”
She had thought it over before she decided to keep the baby. She didn’t plan to tell Phil about it and she was ready to raise the baby on her own.
She didn’t care whether Phil could afford to feed the baby. But she was worried that the company would collapse if he kept staying in and idling away like this every day. After all, he had to face up to the fierce competition out there. And, he had paid lots of effort to make his law firm well-known in the field.
Somehow, he remembered how malicious Cara was when he heard Anya say she was going to raise the baby on her own, and he felt heart-wrenched.
Anya has tried so hard to keep the baby and she was also positive and confident that she could give the baby a bright future. In no way could she imagine someone as evil and malicious as Cara wanted to kill the baby.
Phil was really heartbroken.
He even couldn’t imagine how painful and grieved she would be if anything happened to her or the baby. He couldn’t bear the pain to think of it.
“Your legs are bothering you. Don’t go to school these days,” said Phil, trying hard to calm down.
She would stay in and he would be there for her protection at the same time. He didn’t believe Cara could hurt her then. What was more, he had told Gaven to carry out his plan. Cara would be busy caring about her own business by then and she dared not to do evil things again.
“These days?” Anya was confused, “My legs hurt every now and then. I feel much better now. Maybe they will be fine tomorrow. I must go to classes.”
In fact, Anya didn’t want to make a fuss over it. If Phil wasn’t there to watch her, she would be in classes though her legs hurt.
