Ann placed the ring on a table aside, held Nikki in her arms, and left Betty's house with her back straight up.
As she passed by Karl, he subconsciously wanted to pull her back. But he was stopped by the cold estrangement on Ann's face.
He was unreconciled. Why would he feel guilty when Ann did something wrong?
'She owed me!'
...
When Ann took Nikki, who was sleeping after crying to the rented neighborhood, she saw Phillip's car.
Phillip leaned against the car door and stood straight there.
Under the light, he was so charming.
Turning her head, Ann hugged Nikki tightly and quickened her pace, wanting to go upstairs.
She didn't want anyone to see her like this.
Steady and powerful footsteps rang out behind her. When Ann was at the door, she was imprisoned by Phillip with both hands.
"What are you doing?" Ann took a step back like a kitten and let out a low roar.
"They said you left early."
Afraid that Ann would reject his approach, Phillip made an excuse that could be easily exposed.
But then Ann hated arguing with him. She lowered her head gently and said, "I'm sorry, I will explain it to my superior."
"I am your superior!"
After saying that, Phillip suddenly saw that Ann's fair and exquisite cheeks were badly red and swollen.
The imprint of an open hand on her face was clearly visible. Soon, Phillip turned gloomy.
"Who did it?!"
Phillip's voice was very cold, but it was not the cold that he showed daily.
It was as if his favorite toy had been touched by others.
Ann was puzzled about the reaction of Phillip.
Phillip unlocked her hands and stood there with a cold face.
"Open the door!"
Ann didn't move.
Phillip stared at her. The pressure around him was overbearing, "Are you going to stand at the door and explain to me?"
The neighbor seemed to be opening the door, then Ann pursed her lips.
Looking at Nikki who was sleeping restlessly with her little brows frowned, Ann took out the key to open the door.
Then Ann put Nikki into the master bedroom.
Just as she came out and closed the door, Phillip stretched out his arm and forcefully hugged her into his embrace.
