Chapter 1357
After all, they had been legally married, and Anne was willing to stay by his side. It should not have escalated into something utterly ugly.
So, it was because of the drugs.
Anthony sat in the car and was on his way back. He took the medicine with some water.
When he reached home, Anne was not in the room. He was feeling slightly flustered when he did not see her.
He sat by the bedside, buried his fingers into his dark bushy hair, and pulled it forcefully. The veins on his arms were bulging.
The remedy did not kick in fast enough.
At least now he knew that it was his problem. He could control it now.
Otherwise, he would become violent. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
Anne entered and saw Anthony’s dangerous state. She was shocked that she took a step back and explained, “I was playing with the kids and accidentally fell asleep on
their bed…”
She took a shower before going there but did not expect herself to fall asleep halfway.
Anthony looked up. His bloodshot eyes looked a little scary. “Don’t you be so scared
of me. I will not do anything to you.”
Anne was confused by what he said.
What was he trying to imply? Was that a trap?
Why did he look like that if he would not do anything to her?
Anne asked gently, “Would you like to have a bath? I will get your pajamas.”
Then, she headed to the dressing room to retrieve his pajamas.
She entered the bathroom and hung them up using clothes hangers.
Before she left, the bathroom door was opened.
She knew that Anthony had entered.
Based on her past experience, Anthony would force her to bathe with him and
torment her despite being physically exhausted.
She always feared the night.
It was because that was the time that the monster always appeared.
Therefore, she stood in the same spot, frozen, afraid to have ruffled Anthony’s
feathers in any way.
Anthony looked at her unconcealable terror and asked, “Are you not taking a bath. too?”
Anne was slightly stunned and said, “I had showered. I will go out now.”
She then went out and quietly shut the door behind her.
She was still feeling a little odd.
Anthony did not force her. Why?
She did not wish for it, but she was just feeling wary, as Anthony’s ruthless side would not allow her to have a peaceful night under any circumstance.
Anne looked at the bed. Did she dislike being in the bathroom?
She sat on the bed warily, and when she heard the water stop in the bathroom, she went under the quilt and lay down.
She looked obedient and submissive, but she was trembling uncontrollably under the quilt.
Anthony walked out of the bathroom and put on the brown pajamas that Anne had prepared for him.
He walked to the bed and saw Anne, who was already in bed. His eyes were so dark
that they looked bottomless.
He lifted the quilt, and hopped in, then pulled her right into his arms.
Anne felt that her scalp was going numb and could not even bring herself to say anything to reject him.
Anne waited for Anthony’s next actions in fear.
However, Anthony was only hugging her and did not do anything.
Anne was feeling so anxious and on edge.
“Can’t sleep?” Anthony’s deep voice was heard from the top.
Anne was scared that he would propose some activities to help with the sleep, so she hastily said, “If you did not talk to me, I would have already been asleep now.”
