Chapter 1295

She could not feel any pain when she fell off the bed in tears. After a while, she got up on her feet

and stumbled her way toward the bathroom to put on her clothes, before heading down the stairs

through the living room.

“Anthony could do anything to me, but why would he do this to the Newmans? Why does he have

to be so merciless?” She thought, “This all happened because Lucas likes me and wants to help me.

Anthony isn't targeting Lucas; he is targeting me!’

She dragged her feet down the stairs, feeling as though she was about to fall apart with each step

she took.

“Ah!” She stumbled on the last stair and fell onto the floor.

Anne broke down in tears at the helplessness that overwhelmed her.

Hayden hurried over. “Mrs. Marwood, what's wrong? Are you hurt?”

“Don’t touch me...” She kept her head bowed and could not help but tremble.

Hayden stilled as he tried to take Anne's arm. “Mrs. Marwood, are you hurt? Let me help you inside

and call Doctor Brown to come over.”

"What's there to see? I deserve it even if I die...” She said hoarsely.

“Mrs. Marwood?” Hayden could sense the despair in her tone and wondered if she had fought with

Anthony.

“But Mr. Marwood seemed to be in a rather good mood this morning when he came down the

stairs,” Hayden thought.

“Let me just help you up.” He moved closer to help her up.

She shoved him away once she stood, before stumbling up the stairs again.

Hayden spotted a scratch on her knee underneath her skirt.

Anne returned to the room, sat down on the couch and searched for news regarding the Pinnacle

Academy. She watched with a pale face as Lucas appeared before the cameras in an exhausted look.

“I'm no longer the principal of the Pinnacle Academy,” Lucas said to the reporters. “I am the one

who failed to manage the academy. It's my fault, and my fault only. I have done everything in my

power and I do not regret any of my choices. I hope that whoever cares about me does not feel

guilty as well. I did everything willingly.”

His last words almost felt as though they were directed at Anne.

Tears scrolled down Anne's face. She regretted ever being involved with Lucas, as he would not have

to face Anthony's wraith if she had cut all ties with him.

“Mrs. Marwood...are you okay?” Mia stood next to Anne with the first aid kit and watched as Anne

sobbed in confusion.

Anne did not respond like she did not hear Mia at all.

“Mrs. Marwood, I will help treat your wound,” Mia said, before crouching to take the sanitizer out

from the kit and proceeding to clean Anne's wound.

Anne did not feel a thing and simply continued to stare at the television in tears.

Mia glanced at the television and the devastated look on Anne's face, managing to reach a

conclusion as to why Anne was so upset.

She might not know much, but she could always check with Bianca. With enough information, she

would be able to divide Anthony and Anne to accomplish her goal.

After the triplets were done with their lessons, they headed to the master bedroom to search for

their mother, only to realize that the door was locked.
