Chapter 199


    Charmine turned back and saw Anthony behind her.


    She did not know when Anthony had walked behind her. The man wore his home–clothes, which made


    him seem less cold and more refined and elegant.


    She fell backward into his arms; her head arched back as his hands were still sped at her waist. She


    was wearing a yoga top and tight yoga pants...


    Charmine hastily rposed herself when she noted that Anthony‘s grip was so tight, unwilling to let


    her go. She frowned. “Mr.Bailey?”


    Anthony asked in a stern voice, “Are you really going to marry Julian?”


    “Yes. Didn‘t I tell you before? It‘s a fake wedding, and it won‘t happen as nned,” said Charmine.


    Anthony‘s frown never left his face. “This is quite a serious matter in your hands. Do you want to


    gamble on such a risky thing?” His voice was deep with a hint of displeasure.


    Charmine was starting to feel sore from her backward arching pose, so she pushed his arms away with


    all her strength and exined, “I don‘t think it‘s such a serious matter. It‘s just a strategy.”


    She sounded casual, though Anthony looked serious.


    ‘Using such a serious matter as a strategy??


    “Charmine, just say the word, and I‘ll solve whatever it is you‘re facing.”


    She did not have to use this as a strategy!


    Charmine eyed the man next to her. “Mr. Bailey, you have to remember one thing: You can use your


    resources to settle everything in the world except for the hearts of people. Besides, don‘t you forget


    that when we signed the contract, we did agree to not get involved with each other‘s private life. I hope


    you can keep your end of the bargain.”


    With that, Charmine pushed him away and left.


    Anthony‘s eyes darkened as he watched her retreating form.

    When Charmine walked past the sofa, she saw her phone lit up. She picked it up and replied to Julian:


    [Yes. You may start arranging for the wedding, but I want it big and fancy. You have to announce this to


    the world.)


    The moment Julian read her text, he tried toe up with an excuse to convince her to keep it simple.


    What he had in mind was to get the certificate and call it done. He did not expect to receive a request


    like this!


    (Charmine, everyone‘s more into keeping it simple these days. Also, aren‘t you busy? Hosting a big


    ceremony would take up many days.)


    [Don‘t worry, I‘ll cope with it.] Charmine replied.


    Julian‘s face darkened. She was still so arrogant and bold not long ago; it only took her half a month to


    be so impatient about marrying him!


    Hah! She was just as he predicted. Disgusting!


    When they received the certificate, he would make her pay dearly. Julian replied with a text that read,


    (Sure, I‘ll start nning.)


    Once that was done, Charmine then texted Eric, (In the next half of the month, get me shootings or


    events that only take up half a day.]


    Eric: [You‘re busy?]


    Charmine: (Yeah, wedding.)


    Eric: [With Anthony?]


    Charmine: [Of course not! Do you think Anthony would marry me? It‘s with Julian, and you know why.]


    When Eric received her text, he frowned in confusion before realizing what it was about.


    (You‘re stirring things again?]


    Charmine‘s red lips curled up. (Yes! Stay tuned!)


    Charmine would make both Julian and Tiffany pay at the wedding ceremony!


    She put down her phone and saw Chris walking out. While she had told Chris beforehand of what was


    happening, things might turn moreplicated. Charmine thought it was best tofort Chris and


    reassure him.
