Chapter 21 Anne knew that Anthony would never let her go unless she was dead...
"Anne, come to my place for a nice meal tomorrow!” Sarah said.
“Nice meal?” “You don't remember my birthday? I lived with you for so many years, and I always remember your birthday!” Sarah rubbed Anne's nose.
Anne flinched. How could she go?
Anthony did not want her to get in touch with the Marwood family, especially her aunt.
However, it would be cruel of her not to attend Sarah's birthday...
“Don’t worry, just a meal at home. Just me, you, and your uncle. Anthony won't come to our mansion. You can go home after the meal. Nobody would know.”
Anne was convinced. “Okay, I will go.”
She had no way of turning her aunt down.
Since it was just a meal and she could leave afterward, Anthony would not find out so soon...
On Sarah's birthday, Anne finished work as usual.
After returning to the flat, she went through the back door and took a taxi to Marwood Mansion. She bought a gift for Sarah yesterday. “Aunt, happy birthday !"
“Look at you, why bother buying a gift?” Sarah smiled at her.
"Just something small.”
“I will like whatever you buy me.”
After getting inside, the memories came back to her.
Anne recalled Anthony's figure. He was in his twenties, standing on the stairs, looking down at her from above with his chilling eyes.
In her eyes, he was a dangerous person.
"Anne, do you remember this place?” Sarah asked.
“I do. It looks the same as before,” Anne said.
Ron smiled and said, “I remember when Anne first came here, she was in a dress looking adorable.” "Come here, don't just stand there. Let's eat. Are you hungry?” Sarah pulled Anne's hand. They sat before the table. “I made all of your favorite dishes.”
"Aunt, this is your birthday. Why did you make my favorite dishes ..."” Anne felt bad.
“Silly kid, as long as you're with me, it doesn’t matter who's favorite dishes we're eating,” Sarah said. “Thank you, aunt.” Anne was touched
“Thank me for eating more!” Sarah gave her more food.
Anne was grateful.
This was something she lacked living abroad all these years.
Her aunt had always been very kind to her, and she treated her like her daughter.
Therefore, on her birthday, she had to risk everything to stay with her aunt...
As they were happily eating, there was the sound of an engine coming from outside.
Sarah was curious. “Who came? I'll have a look.”
She walked past the living room to have a look. When Sarah saw the black and arrogant Rolls Loyce, she was still confused until she saw the man coming out. She grabbed the handle in shock.
