Chapter 919

Anne was enveloped in Anthony's arms and she did not dare to move. She seemed to be having a taste of this

strange feeling that was making her heart pound at the same time.

"Did we...sleep like that in the past?” She asked softly as she was slightly self-conscious. “Mm-hmm. Don't be nervous. It'll be fine after a few more nights.” Anthony lightly caressed her back with his hand.

He did not make things up this time. They were indeed in this position when they slept together in the past.

It was just that she was forced by him.

As Anne was caressed by Anthony's big palm, she gradually relaxed.

She then felt that the arms, in which she was laying, were like a nest built for her and had given her a great sense of security.

Anne thought of something and touched the gauze on her head. “Will I press against the wound if I fall asleep?”

“No, you won't.”

Anne did not know why he was so certain.

Not long after she nestled against the sturdy chest, she could not help but look up at Anthony's face.

"Hmm?"

“Well...how did we know each other?”

“I watched you grow up.”

"Huh? We already knew each other in our childhood?”

“Mm-hmm.”

Anne was surprised. She thought that because both Anthony and her father owned a company respectively, they probably knew each other from such a social circle and were very familiar with each other.

“I've known you since your mother married my father,’ said Anthony.

Anne lifted her head as she could not believe it. “Then...”

“They're divorced.” Anthony found it amusing. He then pulled her back down so she would continue lying on the bed.

Anne could not help but sigh in relief. If her mother and Anthony's father were a married couple, it would be all messed up for them to be a married couple as well!

It was after Anne gradually fell asleep that Anthony turned off the lights.

The room was pitch -black. The breath of the person in his arms was blowing gently against his chest, tickling him like a soft feather and making his body tense up.

Anthony hugged the person in his arms tightly and shut his black eyes

At midnight, Anne wanted to turn her body over.

However, Anthony's arms, which were hugging her body, only allowed her to move within a certain radius. He only allowed her to lay flat on her back and not turn over to face her back to him. Otherwise, she would press against the wound at the side.

When Anne woke up in the morning, she realized that she was still in Anthony's arms and she was almost completely lying on his chest.

Such a shocking image made her blush a little.

After feeling bashful, she stared at Anthony's face and wondered if this person really was her husband.

She still could not remember a single thing after one night's sleep.

Anthony woke up as well when Anne moved a little.

Looking at her dazed expression, he knew that she was still in a state of memory loss.

Just when she was spacing out, his rough fingers touched and stroked her chin, and his deep and husky voice could be heard. “What are you thinking about? Hmm?”

"I still don't remember anything...” Anne looked dejected in her eyes.

“It's not going to affect anything. There is no difference between now and then.”

“Then, could you tell me about the past?”

“Alright.”

Anthony told Anne about their past, turning all of the coercion and control he had over her into ordinary developments of a relationship.

She was 12 when he met her and they went abroad to study after they grew up. Later, they got married and had three children.

It was when they were abroad that they slept together. After she got pregnant, they decided to get married.

It sounded like there was nothing wrong.

"Have we ever fought?” Anne was curious.

"All married couples fight. We're no exception as well, but it was all trivial matters.”

Anne thought the same.

Anthony did not go to his company during the day. He spent the morning at the Royal Mansion and kept Anne accompanied as she familiarized herself with the surrounding environment. In the afternoon, he took advantage of the time Anne and the children were taking a nap to handle some company matters in the study.

He could not feel at ease after a moment, so he went to the room to take a look.

As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw an adult and three children sound asleep on the bed. Anne was sleeping on her side and was surrounded by the children. Their positions were all in mess but they looked cozy.
