In the presidential suite @01 of Jadforest Garden, Broome.

Hearing Maria's phone ring, Anthony picked it up and answered it for her.

“Hello.”

“Maria, how dare you- Um... Anthony?"

Bill, who had been about to scold Maria, cut himself off when he heard

Anthony's voice.

It had never occurred to the Jenkins family that Maria might not have gone to Broome alone.

Bill had turned on the speaker, so everyone in the Jenkins family Living room could hear the conversation.

It was only now that they realized that Maria had gone to Broome with Anthony.

“Yes, it's Anthony. Maria is asleep." Anthony's Low voice came from the other end of the Line.

The entire Jenkins family was taken aback by his cool and confident tone.

Hearing that, Bill did not dare to utter the words that he had prepared to hurl at Maria.

The Jenkins family had forgotten that Maria, who they always Looked down on, had now been Anthony's fiancee for several months.

They couldn't risk offending the Wilson family.

Bill was simmering with anger, but now he couldn‘t vent it on Maria. After hesitating for a while, he asked cautiously, “Can you wake Maria up? I have something to ask her."

“Ask her or scold her?”

Anthony's voice was still cold and distant, without an ounce of respect for Bill.

“Well... I just need to ask her about a small matter. Why would I scold her? Don't misunderstand me. Our whole family has always been good to Maria."

Despite being a thick-skinned man, Bill couldn't help but turn red with embarrassment as he said these words in front of the whole family.

Anthony's response was curt. "Since it's not a big deal, I'll ask her to call you back when she wakes up. I don't want anyone to disturb her rest."
