She moved in that night. 

 

She locked the door and lay down in bed. 

She slept peacefully that night, even if she had to wake up at midnight to video call her kids. 

This place was much safer than the Royal Mansion. 

After working in the surgery clinic for a few days, Anne was beginning to look like an ordinary working woman instead of an abused one. 

 

One day, after she finished her morning shift, she went into the toilet when her phone vibrated. 

When she saw an unknown number, she halted. 

She did not know who was calling and assumed it was Anthony. 

If it was him, she dared not to answer. 

After unlocking her screen, she answered, “Hello?” 

“Anne, it’s me.” 

Anne was relieved. “Oh, what is it?” 

“I just got out of the office and will be passing by your place. Want to have lunch?” 

Anne instantly recalled the warning from Anthony, and she turned down, “Sorry, I still have work to do, and I don’t feel like going out.” 

“I see, that’s fine. Get some rest. We will meet another time.” Tommy backed down. 

“Okay,” Anne said politely. 

After washing her hand in the toilet, she went to the pantry. 

She drank water inside while ordering takeaway from her phone. She had no idea what to eat. 

Meals were not provided at her workplace, and she had to sort them out herself. 

She was paid rather well. She was paid six thousand dollars during probation and ten thousand dollars if she passed probation. In addition, she could earn commissions from finding more customers. 

Anne thought if she was on her own, having a well-paid job like this would be very nice. However, she had three kids to take care of.
