Female Novel
Chapter 1641
lan did not look up. Instead, he lowered his voice and said, "That's none of your business. You just need to know that I love Anne more than you do. Iwon't let her stay in this battlefield of a family.”
This sudden change caught me off guard, and lan's lawyer took the lead immediately. He voiced a series of questions that left me speechless. "In thefuture, when Anne grows up and find out that she and her siblings don't look alike, what would say, Miss Reid? Will Anne be happy facing hergrandmother, Valerie Lawson's discrimination? Not to mention she was the chief culprit in Anne's biological mother's death? The most important thingMiss Reid, is that you have accidentally lost your babies twice. Anne was also kidnapped and ended up having acute leukemia because of theincident. Mr. lan doubts that you and Mr. Roberts can protect Anne well as parents...”
Until they left, my brain was buzzing. lan's lawyer was indeed good at talking. As a lawyer, he did a good job, but as a human, he had been too cruel.I was extremely familiar with the legal procedures here. Just the fact that I had once put Anne in danger, would be enough for the judges and juries tomake the final decision
lan had a wife. Although they weren't a wealthy family. they were financially comfortable. They were able to accommodate Anne materially. Even if thenet worth of our assets was involved, I had no chance of success. Compared with going through twists and turns, the law would side with the reasonthat children should grow up safely.
Hendrix had not appeared for a day, and my heart was stifled. Hence, I called Freya on the phone and said with a bitter smile, "I haven't gotten mylawyer's certificate, but I've already managed to sit at the defendant's seat.”
When Freya heard that Anne was going to be taken away, she patted her chest and promised me. “That lawyer has a mean mouth, huh? He's justoffending you, but I've got something better. Don't worry. With me here, no one will dare to touch my goddaughter.”
After I put down the phone, I smiled bitterly for a moment as I exited the chat room. Then, I turned around and went to Anne's room. I was reallyworried about whether I could keep her here, with the way lan and his lawyer were stirring trouble.
It was nine o'clock. Anne should already be sleeping at this time. When I opened the door, my actions were very soft. As soon as I opened the door. Iheard Anne's adorable babbling.
She rambled on, "... And cotton candy. I'm home now. Miss Zanes, please bring me this next time. Mom wan't let me eat it!"Miss Zanes? Which Miss Zanes? Out of curiosity, I crept in and saw Anne sitting in front of the computer, video-chatting“Absolutely! I'll definitely bring it for you. This is our secret. Remember to not tell anyone, Anne!”
Hearing Estella's voice, I suddenly straightened up. When did she have such a good relationship with Anne? And why were they still chatting at thistime?novelbin
For some reason, I wasn't too happy. I feigned two coughs and called out, "Anne?"
Hearing my voice, Anne turned off the computer clumsily and jumped onto the bed, pretending to be asleep.
I sighed and sat on the bed, pretending to be angry. "Are you really asleep, Anne? You don't cover yourself with blankets when you're asleep?”She was very smart. Under her eyelids, her eyeballs were nervously spinning. She had already been exposed, but she did not open her eyes.
I was angry yet amused, but I pretended to be calm and sighed deliberately. "Well, since you don't like me so much, then I won't come to see youanymore.”
"Mom, con't!" Anne curled her lipsand got up from bed. She grabbedmy hand I with both of her own. "I likeyou, Mort! Mom, don't send meteOlivers) ‘solace. I don't want to net seeyoustpromise to be obedientin thefuttire!” Content belongs to~NovelDrama.Org 4
