Chapter 208 Do You Know About Our Relationship?
Ann opened the door and saw Phillip standing beside Todd with a cold expression.
Ann tightened her grip on the door handle. She should have said something, but her throat felt terribly
dry.
Todd glanced at Ann and Phillip who were looking at each other, and then greeted Ann smilingly. After
he walked sideways into the house, he pushed Ann from behind. Ann stumbled and almost fell on
Phillip.
Fortunately, Ann managed to balance her footing to avoid feeling awkward.
Todd lamented that such a good chance was wasted.
Then Todd winked at Phillip and closed the door.
Ann was dumbfounded and hurriedly knocked on the door.
"Open the door!"
Todd didn't answer.
No one in the room answered Ann.
Ann was annoyed and thought, 'Todd is indeed unreliable. He even wants to date my best friend. No
way!'
However, Ann felt uncomfortable being with Phillip behind her.
Pursing her lips, Ann turned around and looked at Phillip, only to find that Phillip was also staring at her
with his deep, dark eyes.
Ann tried to suppress her agitation and look cool.
"Mr. Phillip, Carson and Jackson are young, but I hope some things like this won't happen again." After
a pause, Ann added resolutely. "It bothers me a lot."
Phillip blinked, but the expression on his handsome face remained unchanged.
Phillip's tone was cold and emotionless. "Does it also bother Fred?"
When Ann heard this, she frowned and her face fell.
"Mr. Phillip, now that we've both settled down, you must not ask such questions."
Phillip thought, 'Ann has settled down...'
Phillip stared at Ann's serious and cold face. Did Ann settle down with Fred so soon? Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Phillip couldn't help but clench his fists behind his back as he looked down at Ann.
Phillip's eyes were aggressive as he gazed deep into Ann's finely carved features.
"Ann, what do you think we have in common?" A cold smile suddenly appeared on Phillip's grim face.
His tone was sarcastic and indifferent, but Ann thought there was great sadness and struggle in his
eyes.
Ann's heart squeezed and her face paled.
Ann's lips moved and her voice was trembling.
"Are ... are you..."
Ann wanted to ask Phillip if he knew anything about their relationship.
Before Ann could say anything, Phillip's emotions faded away on his face. He became grim as he
looked at Ann indifferently.
Phillip ignored Ann and dialed a number.
"Bring Carson and Jackson out!"
Without waiting for an answer, Phillip hung up. He stood where he was, ignoring Ann's startled eyes,
looking cold and distant.
Phillip's hands behind his back were clenched, his knuckles white.
Todd opened the door, and the first thing Ann heard was Nikki's cry.
Carson and Jackson clung to the wall unit beside the porch, refusing to move a step.
Todd shrugged, looking helpless.
Phillip's eyes fell on Nikki, who was crying beside the stubborn Carson and Jackson. Phillip's eyes
flashed with a hint of sadness, but finally, he looked away.
Phillip strode forward, picked up Carson and Jackson and held them in his arms, his face was grim.
"Let's go home!"
"You're gonna find us a stepmother and have a baby. We're not going back there. Anyway, we don't
have a mother. We're gonna be bastards with no parents!" Carson pouted.
Phillip's face fell. "Carson, if I hear that again, I'll send you abroad!"
Carson turned away his face and wiped the tears from his eyes.
And he retorted, his voice breaking. "Everyone at school says we are motherless bastards. We want
our mothers!"
Jackson was calm in character but his eyes turned red. He looked at Ann, then buried his face in
Phillip's shoulder, and sobbed.
Phillip's eyes quivered when he heard this. He remembered Jackson got into a fight at school last time
because they were called bastards at school.
Phillip could intimidate the grown-ups with his power, but he couldn't silence everyone.
Carson, Jackson, and Nikki were only five years old in great need of their parents' love.
Phillip struggled through being called a bastard. And he thought he would never let his children suffer
like that.
However, Phillip and Ann...
Phillip's deep black eyes dimmed as he hugged Carson and Jackson in his arms tightly.
"You have your own mommy. And Daddy won't have another baby." Phillip comforted softly.
With that, Phillip walked into the elevator with Carson and Jackson in his arms.
Ann held Nikki in her arms and comforted her softly, thinking about what Phillip just said.
Phillip asked Ann just now what they had in common.
Ann thought of Phillip standing her up, his change after his reappearance, and the words he just said ...
Was it because Phillip already knew about their relationship?
Ann was seized with a strange panic.
If Phillip did know, Ann was afraid that his indifference was just the calm before the storm.
In the elevator, Carson and Jackson raised their heads at the same time to look at Phillip.
"But you said that our mom went far away. Grandma also said that our mom would not come back. We
still don't have a mom!"
Phillip looked at the changing floor number.
"Your mom is there for you."
Phillip's voice was quiet.
