Chapter 1179 - 1180: The Sweetest Thing
"Brother listens to you in everything, but don’t joke about your lifelong happiness."
"Even if you don’t have Miles supporting you, you still have me protecting you!"
The Eldest Master Monroe started talking more, but every word was for Anna Morgan’s sake.
Anna Morgan found it annoying but was also somewhat touched.
"Bro, have you figured things out?"

"Huh?"
"I found a lawyer to help mom with her lawsuit. Should we schedule a time to talk? Maybe plan together."
Anna Morgan suggested.
"Alright!" Eldest Master Monroe readily agreed.
Eldest Master Monroe noticed Anna Morgan shifting the topic and brought up her husband again.
"Anna, listen to your brother, divorce that man?"
"Oh." Anna Morgan replied nonchalantly. Just as she finished speaking, she heard the door open outside and looked up to see Carter Lockwood had returned.
"Honey."
Holding her phone, Anna Morgan called out joyfully. On the other end, Eldest Master Monroe, who had been painstakingly trying to convince Anna Morgan to get a divorce, suddenly felt his blood pressure spike upon hearing this address.
"Anna, how could you?"
"Bro." Carter Lockwood was back, and Anna Morgan didn’t want to listen to him nag. She smiled and told Eldest Master Monroe on the phone, "Bro, my husband’s back, so I won’t chat with you."
With that, Anna Morgan decisively hung up the phone.
Eldest Master Monroe looked at the darkened phone screen, extremely angry. Which scoundrel man had stolen away his little princess?
Eldest Master Monroe thought for a moment and called Mrs. Monroe.
During the call, he heard Mrs. Monroe say that the man Anna found was ten years older than her.
Eldest Master Monroe felt like crying.
It was all his fault. For the sake of Miles and Ivy Preston, he ended up being neither here nor there, which forced his sister to marry an old man.
He felt he was such a poor excuse for a brother.
Anna Morgan was unaware of Eldest Master Monroe’s regret and anger.
Seeing Carter Lockwood return, her whole heart was set on him.
"Honey!"
Anna Morgan rushed over, wrapping her arms around Carter Lockwood’s neck.
Before Carter Lockwood could respond, she stood on tiptoes and kissed his cheek.
Being teased like this again, Carter Lockwood couldn’t hold back. He reached out and pulled Anna Morgan tight in his arms, then turned around and pinned her against the wall.
Having suddenly been walled in by her husband, Anna Morgan wasn’t embarrassed. Instead, she curled her lips and directly met his eyes.
"Honey, do you want to kiss me?"
"Is that so?"
Before Carter Lockwood could answer, Anna Morgan stood on tiptoes again and kissed him.
When it came to kissing and cuddling, Anna Morgan took complete control.
After a kiss ended, Anna Morgan giggled at Carter Lockwood, neither of them letting go of the other.
"Anna!"
Carter Lockwood gently called out.
"Honey, aren’t you supposed to kiss me back?"
"That’s how they do it in dramas and novels."
Carter Lockwood was amused by Anna Morgan’s words. He went along with her, leaning down and accurately capturing her lips with his own.
Anna Morgan tightened her arms around Carter Lockwood’s neck. She loved the intimate interactions between them.
If they got even closer, she wouldn’t mind.
But Carter Lockwood was too much of a gentleman; no matter how heated things got between them, he always managed to stay calm.
Anna Morgan even wondered if her charm was lacking, making Carter Lockwood only kiss and cuddle her without doing anything more!
Carter Lockwood didn’t act unwisely; he just didn’t want to touch the amnesic Anna Morgan.
If he did, when Anna Morgan regained her memory, she might end up resenting him deeply.
After their close interaction, Carter Lockwood carried the groceries he bought into the kitchen, with Anna Morgan following him to help.
She had never been in the kitchen before and didn’t know how to cook, not even how to wash vegetables.
However, with Carter Lockwood there, Anna Morgan was willing to learn.
Working together in the same kitchen was a very sweet thing.
