Chapter 981

“Let's go home for dinner,” Anthony said as he led Anne and the children into the car.

On the way home, Anne noticed that the triplets were oddly quiet as they leaned against her, as

though they had done something wrong, but she did not have a clue on what happened.

"What's wrong?” She asked

The triplets shook their heads in unison.

Anthony stared at them pointedly and said, “They are probably tired!”

Charlie flushed and remained quiet, while the other two nodded in agreement.

Anne turned to study Anthony's face and though he remained expressionless, something felt

different.

They arrived at the Royal Mansion and the five headed into the dining hall to eat.

After dinner, Anne got up to use the bathroom and the triplets tried to follow her, when Anthony

stopped them. “Stay right here.”

Anne turned around. She had been a lot slower since she lost her memories and asked, “Do you

three want to use the bathroom as well?”

“They don't,” Anthony said, “you should go ahead.”

Anne shot him a confused look, before heading into the bathroom.

Once the door was closed, Anthony's shadow loomed over the trembling triplets.

“Papa...”

“Don't try to make excuses,” Anthony said coldly.

The three pouted.

“The two of you, stand in the study room and reflect on your actions!” Anthony commanded Charlie

and Chris.

"We...we didn’t do anything wrong!” Charlie protested .

“Have I not told you not to talk to Lucas Newman?” Anthony questioned sharply.

“Papa, we just ran into him by accident...” Chris explained.

“Does that mean you can go shopping and play with him? “Anthony asked, “Go ahead unless you

want a beating!”

Charlie and Chris reluctantly turned and headed toward the study room, before slamming the door

behind them furiously.

Needless to say, Charlie was the one who slammed the door.

That brat,” Anthony thought, if I don't keep him in check now, I won't be able to control him in the

future.’

Chloe looked up at Anthony. “Papa, have you forgotten about me?”

“You are going back to your room. Shower and go to sleep.

"Okay..." Chloe headed for the stairs and climbed up, wondering why her punishment was different

from her brothers.

Anne came out of the bathroom and noticed that Chloe was climbing up the stairs. “Where is Chloe

going?”

"She's tired and wants to sleep,” Anthony said.

Not seeing Charlie and Chris anywhere, Anne thought that they had returned to their room as well

and said, “I'll go back to my room, too.”

“Sure.”

She studied the dark look on his face in confusion, wondering if he was angry with something.

“But why?’ She thought. “Did the triplets do something?”

She went up the stairs and Anthony turned to head into the study room.

Once he opened the door, Charlie, who was on Anthony's office chair, and Chris who was playing on

the coffee table, immediately ran toward the corner, facing the wall.

Anthony shot the two a glare before walking over to stand behind them expressionlessly. “Come

here.”

Thinking that they had been forgiven, Charlie and Chris turned around to look at Anthony.

Charlie was still slightly upset and was determined not to forgive Anthony even if Anthony

apologized.

Anthony took out pieces of paper along with two pens from the drawers of his desk and picked a

finance book from the shelf, before sitting down on the couch. He opened the book and

commanded, “Copy.”

Charlie and Chris stared at the pages filled with words, their faces twisting in pain.

“What, you can't?” Anthony asked.
