Chapter 1482

"Any concerns, Yuri?" Anne asked

Yuri chuckled and shook her head as she grabbed Anne's hand. “I just don’t want to cause you any

trouble.”

“I am the one who has been causing you trouble. Besides, I don't consider taking care of you a

problem at all,” Anne said sincerely.

It was the truth.

Without Yuri's help, she would have been dead on the island long ago and she would never have

the chance to see her children again, or to learn how devastated her triplets had been during the

time she was gone.

"Okay." Yuri's heart was filled with hope and warmth and she agreed to follow Anne anywhere.

The sky slowly began to turn dark and unlike cities, darkness fell over the town, providing the best

environment for one to hide themselves.

Anne sat on the ground by the fences with a glass of unfinished wine in her hand.

“Is something bothering you?” Yuri came over to sit next to her with a glass of wine in her hand as

well.

Anne sobered and forced a smile. “No.”

"You can't fool me. Did something...happen over there?”

Though Anne had never gone into details about her past, Yuri knew a thing or two and said, “Talk to

me. You will feel better.”

“I...had triplets by accident when I was single. After that...I fell for the guy and despite wanting to

get close to him, I'm scared of him and feel...anxious around him,” Anne said

sorrowfully.

“Does he love you?”

*..No.” Anne paused and added, “Maybe. I don't know..."

Yuri stared at her without interrupting.

"He has been taking care of the kids and told me that he wants me to stay by his side, but I

turned him down.”

“Why?”

“Because he...is seeing someone else. A former co-worker. I am disgusted by it.”

“You only feel that way because you care about him,” Yuri said.

Anne wanted to deny it, but was rendered speechless when she asked herself if she truly did not

care. If that was the case, why would she escape immediately as soon as she found out that Anthony

was seeing Lucia?

She propped her head onto her hand, realizing that she had been overreacting, but she

could not help it.

“I don't know what happened between you and that man and how you feel, but I want you to be

happy and to live without regret,” Yuri said, “there's no hurry, though. If it's meant to be yours, it will

be. Don't push yourself too hard.”

“Yeah.” Anne nodded.

Just then, Anne's phone rang. She realized that she had promised to call Anthony upon arriving, but

it could not possibly be a call from Anthony as it was in the middle of the night on his end

However, considering how obsessive Anthony was, it did not seem impossible.

She grabbed the phone and noticed that it was from a strange number. “Hello?”

“I see that you are back.” It was the voice of a man that had been altered by device

Though she could not tell who it was, Anne instinctively paled.

“Once a member of Tianya, always a member of Tianya. You can't escape us unless you die.”

“I won't die, nor would I go back,” Anne swore.

“That's not up to you.”

"What do you want?” She asked patiently.

Yuri snatched the phone away from Anne and switched it into a speaker.
