Chapter 182
At 11:30 PM, a Bentley pulled up in front of the villa.Caroline Hill stepped out of the car, dressed in a sharp suit, still speaking on the phone.“Are the gifts I arranged all ready?” she asked.“They’re ready, Miss Hill,” came the voice on the other end.Caroline gave a soft hum of acknowledgment. “Good, I know now. You’ve all worked hard—go home and rest early. Take half a day off tomorrow.”“Thank you, Miss Hill! Thank you!”Gratitude poured through the phone before she ended the call.After returning to the villa, Caroline was about to enter Anthony’s room.But just as her hand touched the doorknob, she paused, turned around, and entered another room.She wanted to shower—and remembered all her clothes were in her own room.To be closer to Anthony, she had moved into the villa next to his.After a soothing shower, Caroline slipped into a silk nightgown and walked straight to Anthony’s door. Without hesitation, she pushed it open.She didn’t turn on the light. She didn’t need to

At that moment, in the rooftop restaurant, Serena Phillips and Anthony sat across from each other.“Mr. Jones, I’m truly sorry for the interruption earlier.” She knew full well what Anthony was capable of— He had taken down the Western King and wasn’t afraid to kill a young master of the Wilson family. Even Arthur Lawrence couldn’t compare to that kind of strength.Yet, she still felt uneasy. Because Arthur Lawrence’s identity was anything but ordinary.Anthony shook his head. “It’s fine. But… what exactly did you say to him just now?”He was genuinely curious. He had noticed that after Serena whispered something to Arthur, the guy’s expression had shifted—he looked at Anthony like he wanted to devour him.“N-Nothing important!” Serena replied quickly, then added, “Mr. Jones, let’s not worry about him. Come on, let’s eat.”Since she clearly didn’t want to talk about it, Anthony didn’t press. Dinner continued until after nine o’clock that evening.Just as the meal ended, Serena

“You mean you?” she asked.“Yes,” Anthony nodded. “Of course. As your friend, I’ll visit you too if I have the chance.”“Oh…” Serena looked a little disappointed, but said nothing more.“Let’s eat, Mr. Jones.”“Sure,” Anthony replied.Just then—“Sir, this area has been reserved. You can’t go in.”The sudden voice caught both Anthony and Serena off guard. They turned to look behind them.Soon, they saw the hostess from earlier being shoved in by several burly men. A tall figure was surrounded and escorted in like a VIP.“Haha, Serena! I finally found you!”A man walked in, wearing a crisp white shirt, over 1.8 meters tall, exuding a strong martial aura. His presence alone made it clear he wasn’t an ordinary man.Serena’s expression immediately darkened. “Arthur Lawrence? How did you find me here?”So this was Arthur Lawrence.Anthony noted the name clearly.Arthur’s eyes were full of tenderness as he looked at Serena. “Serena, I wanted to see you. I went to Aurelia City, but you

“Oh…” The sisters sat on the bed, visibly disappointed.They no longer pressed him.Seeing this, Anthony sighed and said, “You should both get some rest.”With that, he turned and headed downstairs.At the villa’s front entrance, he placed an energy seal over the building. This way, if the villa were ever breached, he’d sense it immediately. Even from anywhere in Silverhaven City, he could blink here in an instant.So, for now, the Osborne family was safe.But if he stayed a moment longer—he wouldn’t be.---After leaving the Osborne estate, Anthony returned directly to Villa No.1 in Crystal Haven. He swore he'd never set foot in the Osborne house again.Scarlett and Hazel clearly had intentions beyond the surface. If he stayed around them too long, something was bound to happen.For his own sanity, he had to leave.Still, he wasn’t worried. The Osborne family was now under his protection. No one would dare touch them.The night passed quietly.Anthony spent it immersed in study

Anthony let out a silent sigh. Was he really that irresistible? Why did so many women want to throw themselves at him?Sensing their intent, Anthony spoke up immediately: “Miss Osborne, do you two need something?”His sudden voice startled the sisters, making them jump.A second later, Anthony switched on the bedside lamp.What he saw left him utterly stunned.His eyes widened in disbelief.These two… were dressed far too provocatively.Hazel wore a silky camisole dress so short it barely covered her hips. Her long legs—fair and slender—were fully exposed, and she was barefoot, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment.Scarlett, on the other hand, wore a tight black dress that hugged her curves, her legs wrapped in sheer black stockings. Light makeup enhanced her already alluring face, making her look both elegant and seductive.Clearly, one sister was playing the wild temptress, while the other played the shy, delicate beauty.The visual impact of the contrast was staggering.Gulp.A

Hazel glanced at Scarlett and asked quietly, “Sis, how did you meet Anthony? You two seem... unusually close.”“Close?” Scarlett gave a bitter smile. “In his eyes, I’m probably no more than an ant. The fact that he even acknowledges me is already a blessing. Be close to him? I wish. But he clearly didn’t want that.”Thinking back to when she had once offered herself to Anthony, only to be ignored entirely, Scarlett felt a deep sense of disappointment. Back then, she hadn’t understood why she had failed— But now, she did.Anthony and she… one was in the heavens, the other in the dirt. How could she dare to hope for something more?Hazel pouted and said, “That’s not true, sis! You don’t know—when he was in Aurelia City, he had three women with him! Those three weren’t any better than us, really. If they had a chance, why can’t we?”Scarlett was stunned.“Th-three women?” She swallowed hard, staring at her sister in shock.Hazel had never mentioned this before. Anthony, in Aurelia
