From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent (Anthea ) novel Chapter 306

"She's going to have it rough!"

The image of Anthea's grim fate flashed before Rebecca's eyes, filling her heart with a twisted sense of satisfaction.

Just then, Alex suddenly turned his head. His eyes, sharp as a hawk's, fixed on her with a chilling intensity. A cold shiver ran down Rebecca's spine as the fear from her past life engulfed her, breaking out in a cold sweat.

For a moment, Rebecca felt as though she was back in that blood-soaked cell. Terrifying! Absolutely terrifying! Her entire body trembled.

Fortunately, Alex soon turned away and climbed into his sleek black sedan. As the car disappeared down the highway, the color slowly returned to Rebecca's face, and she hurried away as if fleeing for her life.

The car sped along the highway, quickly arriving at the Peterson family mansion.

Audrey lay in bed. Though the weather was beginning to warm, Audrey was still buried under a thick blanket, with the heater running full blast in the room.

"Annie's here."

"Audrey," Anthea approached with a smile.

"Annie, I'm sorry to trouble you with this," Audrey grasped Anthea's hand.

"It's no trouble at all. Let me take your pulse."

"Alright." Audrey nodded, observing Anthea carefully. Still in her school uniform, Anthea's slender frame seemed even more delicate, her hands soft and smooth like polished marble. She was simply endearing. The only question was whether she was destined to be with Alex.

After a moment, Anthea released Audrey's wrist, her expression unchanged.

Audrey, with a smile, asked, "Annie, do I not have much time left?"

Anthea tucked Audrey's hand back under the blanket, "Your illness isn't as serious as you think. Just take care of yourself, and by the time spring is in full bloom, you'll be just fine."
