Chapter 52 No Way to Run Tonight
Phillip looked at the little brat who had ruined his good fortune. Then, he turned to look at Ann who was
enraged and embarrassed and slightly curled his lips.
Without the slightest bit of shame, he stretched out his hand and rubbed her head. "Do you feel a little
more relaxed now?"
It was as if he wasn't the one who took the advantage of her.
With her eyes blinking, Ann was somewhat confused by Phillip's words.
Being afraid that Jackson would be beaten up by his father at home, Carson hurriedly explained.
"Miss Ann, Miss Ann, watching horror movies can relieve the pressure. When daddy is unhappy, he will
watch horror movies. Daddy said that you are in a bad mood so he sent us to accompany you!"
When she heard this, her gaze changed slightly.
Phillip keenly sensed it. His long and narrow eyes curved slightly, shining incredibly brightly.
"Are you moved?"
Ann was speechless.
She didn't dare to move.
She was too naive, and she had felt that this man was attentive and considerate. This was clearly
because he had a purpose!
...
The Moore's Old House
As soon as the two little fellows returned home, they followed behind Phillip and asked, "Daddy, Daddy!
Why did you hug Miss Ann just now?"
"Because she's scared."
Jackson frowned and asked again, "But when my brother and I were scared, you said we had to
overcome it by ourselves!" Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Phillip stopped and smiled at the two boys who had accused him, "Miss Ann is a girl. She is a little timid
and needs a man to protect her."
They seemed to be confused, "Then ... will Miss Ann be so scared like us that she can't sleep at
night?"
Phillip stopped walking upstairs and instructed the two little fellows to go to their rooms to wash up and
sleep. He took the car keys and went out.
She was scared, wasn't she?
Ann had just finished telling Nikki a bedtime story.
Just as she took her clothes to have a shower, with some horror scenes in her mind, she suddenly
heard the sound of the door lock.
She was slightly flustered.
It was so late, could it be a thief?
She pursed her lips and carefully opened the bedroom door, only to see Karl standing in the living
room.
Karl looked a little embarrassed. His hands were wrapped in gauze, and his face was covered with
bandages of all sizes. He was not as handsome as he used to be.
Under the warm light of the living room, his eyes were somewhat gloomy and terrifying.
Ann felt somewhat uneasy, so she vigilantly took a few steps back and said, "What are you doing
here?"
Karl noticed her retreat and approached step by step. He smelled of alcohol and a cold smile appeared
on his lips.
"Don't forget, this is also my home. Isn't it normal for me to come back?"
Hearing this, Ann became even more uneasy.
She had already started looking for a house online, but she didn't expect Karl to suddenly come over.
Just as she was thinking, Karl suddenly clasped her hands, leaning over to press down on her, and
was about to kiss her lips.
Ann was shocked. She dodged and tried to push him away.
It angered Karl even more. He forcefully pressed Ann against the wall with a fierce look in his eyes.
"What are you pretending to be? I heard that you were with Phillip right after we broke up. Did he touch
you? He must have touched you. Then why can't I touch you?"
He was inexplicably beaten up and lying in the hospital, only to hear that she was with Phillip.
Seeing that she was so sad and decisive when he broke up with her, he even thought that perhaps he
had misunderstood her.
Now it seemed that she must have been eager to get rid of him for a long time!
The jealousy and anger in Karl's heart eroded his rationality as he rudely took off Ann's clothes.
Ann was nervously irritated. She had never thought that Karl, who had always been gentle and polite,
would turn out like this.
In a panic, she caught sight of Karl's bandaged left hand and used all of her strength to knock Karl into
a nearby cabinet.
There was a thud.
The cabinet banged. Karl's injured hand hurt, so he let go of his grip on her.
Ann hurriedly tried to escape but was grabbed by Karl with his other hand.
"Ann, you can't escape tonight!"
