Chapter 620
He vanished just like that. Bianca certainly must be anxious.
Just as she left the door, the phone in her bag rang.
The phone that she bought herself would not have any sound even if there was an incoming call.
She took out the phone and saw that it was Bianca calling. She did not answer the call.
Just as she stuffed the phone bag into her bag…
“Anne?”
Anne was stunned for a moment. She turned around and saw her father, Nigel, walking out of the garage. He was looking at her in surprise.
“Dad…”
“You’re here?” Nigel asked.
“I… I came to check out the progress of the renovation,” said Anne as she avoided his gaze a little.
Nigel believed what she said. After all, how could he have expected that Anthony would be staying next door?
“Do
you like the renovation?”
“Mm–hmm. I quite like it,” said Anne.
Nigel saw Anne’s face and asked, “What’s the matter? Are you not feeling well?”
“I had a fever the past two days and had been sleeping in the apartment,” said Anne.
“You had a fever?” Nigel hurriedly reached out his hand to touch her forehead, but her temperature did not seem abnormal.
“It’s fine. The fever’s already gone,” said Anne as she pulled Nigel’s hand down, then she asked, “Dad, did you come over to look for me?”
“You didn’t pick up my calls and you’re not home. Can I not be anxious? I just came to try my luck. I didn’t expect that you’ll really be here.” Nigel looked as if he had something to say but he stopped himself. Then, he said, “Are you going back to the area you’re staying in? I’ll give you a lift.”
“This matter has caused so much trouble. I don’t wish at all for Bianca to marry Anthony.
He can’t be a good husband. Other than money, there’s nothing one can get after marrying him.” Nigel was very earnest.
Anne remained silent.
Indeed, if her children were to have a partner like Anthony in the future, she would not agree either.
This man could not be controlled. He was too powerful. As her woman, one could only turn a blind eye to the things he did.
That was the reason Bianca did not dare to cause a scene.
After all, there were plenty of women in Luton who would not cause a scene.
“But Bianca likes Anthony very much. After she went abroad, she kept mentioning Anthony and has been thinking about it. Her career in arts was having great progress abroad. In the end, she still chose to return to the country for Anthony. Both of you are my daughters. Both of you are equally important to me. I don’t wish to see any of you hurt.”
“Dad, if you have something to say, just say it directly.” It was because Anne could not figure out what he wanted to say that she told him so.
“I know that you don’t like Anthony. When he is by your side, can you talk some sense into him or can you and Bianca face this together? Take this time, for example. After you came down with a fever, if you gave Bianca a call, I believe she certainly would be very willing to take care of you.”
