Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart
Chapter 1157 I Don't Want to Upset You Again

Now that they cleared the air between them, Anya responded to his kiss without reserve.

Yet Phil finished the kiss considering Anya's health condition.

Phil was willing to allow Anya a year to recuperate, as the C-section delivery impaired her health. If she couldn't be nurtured to health, she would have to suffer physically a lot. Thus, he would rather restrain himself.

He cared more about Anya's health than meeting his sexual urge.

Anya laid herself against his warm and wide chest, playing with the buttons of his shirt. "Why did you reply so soon? I had thought you wouldn't make a decision until the day before I came back to Ustistan." She might stay at home for a month at least, and two months at most. Given how weird Phil had acted recently, she thought Phil wouldn't give his answer until the last day.

It really surprised her that he came to her not long after she returned home.

She overestimated him.

Phil cuddled her harder and murmured, "I don't want you to deal with those things all alone, and I don't want to upset you again."

Phil knew Anya came back to deal with Luna and Gracie, he helped a lot secretly, but he still worried about her.

Most importantly, he didn't want her to wait any longer with sadness and unhappiness.

He had planned to give her his answer right before she came back to Ustistan, and arranged for Gaven to do many things. But he finally decided to do those things himself at home and responded to her as soon as possible so that she could be happy even if she was at home.

So, he came back.

He asked Maisie to look after their daughter considering her experience.

Gaven was definitely not Phil's choice because he was not experienced and he was a man. Phil wanted his daughter to know the difference between man and woman even though she was an innocent baby. Maisie came to Ustistan as soon as she learned that Phil planned to patch things up with Anya; Ezra cursed him bitterly.

"What's wrong with you? Why didn't you give her your answer when she was still in Ustistan?"

"Why do you decide to do that when she came home? And now you begin to trouble my wife!"

Ezra was justified to be angry because Maisie and others ran from pillar to post between Ustistan and Riverside City because of what happened between Anya and Phil. Maisie was the apple of Ezra's eye, so Phil could have empathy for Ezra.

Phil said rarely earnestly, "I'll never do it again."

Phil and Anya decided to get along well with each other and live happily as a family without any suffering.

"How about you wash up upstairs? I ordered a meal." Phil ordered Anya in his arms.

"No, I need you to hold me upstairs." Anya hummed.

"Right." Phil repressed his smile and picked her up by the waist, then he remembered the old days when he flirted with her on the bed.

She used to escape from him, but Phil could drag her back with his long arms.

Sometimes she ran on purpose to anger him.

They finished washing up. Anya wore her home dress and walked downstairs while Phil placed all the dishes he ordered on the table, beckoning to her to have a meal.

But no sooner had she picked up her fork than her phone rang.

She looked at the telephone number and laughed grimly.

The number belonged to her hideous biological father. It was easy for her to know Morgan came to accuse her because of Gracie.

Maybe it was because Morgan had long since fallen out of love with Lorie that he didn't like Anya, their daughter, at all.

Anya still remembered she found him at Luna's home when she learned that he cheated on her mother and wanted to question him.

Morgan and others obviously didn't welcome her, and their son even pushed her, saying she was a bad woman who tried to steal his father from him.

Their son was twelve or thirteen years old, but was taller and a lot fatter than Anya. So, he pushed Anya and Anya staggered back, almost pushed to the ground. But Morgan just stood by though he was her biological father.

What was more, Morgan slapped her in the face when she accused him of being ungrateful.

She would never forget the humiliating slap which burned her remaining affection for him to ashes. Anya swore that she would never forgive him.

She hated him and everyone else of his new family.

And that was why she took a knife to get to them when a car accident happened to Lorie.

Fortunately, Phil stopped her from making a deadly mistake.

But till now she still hated him.

That was why she sneered at the phone call made by him.

Yet she answered it. But what came from the other side was nothing but his accusation. "Anya, what are you doing? Are you trying to destroy Gracie?"

"Do you know how miserable we are abroad? Do you know how many efforts Gracie has paid to make a little progress? How can you be so malicious to destroy her career right after you come home?"

Morgan never apologized to Anya since he cheated on her mom, but now he accused Anya of destroying Gracie's career and steered clear of his wrongdoings.

Couldn't he think about the reason for a while himself?

And Anya believed he knew the car accident was plotted by Luna.

How could he be so thick-skinned to blame everything on her instead of reflecting on himself?

Anya laughed in anger.

Then she ridiculed him, "My dear father, doing bad things is not your privilege, right?"

"My mom was almost killed by Luna. Why couldn't I do something mean to Gracie?" Anya's relaxed voice made Morgan go through the roof.
