Chapter 230


    She had just decided to distance herself from Anthony this very afternoon, too…


    Charmine began to have second thoughts. Was this all not too much of a coincidence? Momo said he


    was dizzy, but Anthony then entered the room and hit him with the wooden stick..


    Amid her convoluted thoughts, Charmine seemed to understand something… Anthony’s acting skill


    was too good. He pulled such an act with his son just to share a bed with her? More surprisingly, that


    did not frustrate her. In fact, she could not even bear to be angry with him. I f this went on, something


    could very well happen between them. 1


    Charmine’s eyes narrowed as she made an important decision; she wanted to tell him the truth about


    herself. Anthony would find out eventually, and Charmine was not a person who liked to hide the truth.


    She thought carefully of the sentence she was about to say, and as she balled her fists tightly,


    Charmine confessed, “Anthony, don’t fall for me. Nothing will happen between you and I. I was


    impregnated five years ago, and I gave birth to a baby…” 1


    It felt like a heavy boulder was lifted off of her shoulders once she let it all out, though her heart ached


    without relief.


    She was certain Anthony’s feelings for her would be wiped clean after that confession. It was over


    between them; their rtionship ended before it even began.


    Charmine closed her eyes gradually as she waited for Anthony’s response. She waited and waited, but


    she never expected the room to remain silent as ever, as though the drop of a pin could be heard.


    Charmine frowned and looked toward Anthony’s direction. Under the moonlight, his eyes were shut, his


    brows rxed. His facial expression was calm and his breathing was steady.


    Had he fallen asleep? He fell asleep so quickly!


    Even after she built up enough courage to spill the beans, tell him the truth, he was asleep…


    Charmine was furious! One should know how much courage and effort she needed in order for her to


    say this out loud, yet he… 1


    ‘Whatever! Perhaps it’s meant to be. We’ll speak about it tomorrow. As she recalled the Night of Glory


    event tomorrow night, she had to force herself to fall asleep as soon as possible.


    Morning came, and Charmine opened her eyes to see a bare and muscr chest. The scent was


    refreshing and pleasing.


    Wait, what? What was this all about?!


    Why was sheying in Anthony’s arm, and why was her head snuggled into his chest?


    Was Chris not sleeping between them? How could this happen?


    Also, where was Chris?


    Charmine shot up right away to see that Chris was nowhere to be seen… It was just her and Anthony


    in the bedroom! Anthony wasying on his side, with his legs pressed against her body!


    “Anthony Bailey! Can you give me an exnation?!” Charmine scowled.


    Anthony gradually opened his eyes. His just-woke-up face was less intimidating and cold, akin to a


    lethargic lion.


    It took him three seconds for him to make sense of things, and it was only then when he said, “Exin


    what?”


    “And you’re still pretending! Exin, why are you hugging me? Where’s Momo?” Charmine questioned


    him, wide-eyed.

    “Hugging you?” Anthony frowned and reminded, “Shouldn’t this be my question to you? Miss Jordan,


    please have a look at your current position. Shouldn’t you be exining instead?” His voice was deep


    and maic.


    Charmine then eyed their situation, and it only urred to her then that it was more grave than what


    she thought!
