Chapter 498
Charmine was bbergasted. Oh, dear. It seemed that Charmine would end up staying with Chris after
all! Suddenly, Anthony’s deep voice resonated in the room, “Don’t worry, Momo. Mommy has agreed to
meet us once a day, or we could meet her at the Jordan mansion.” “Really?” Chris’ eyes twinkled like
the stars in the sky.
Charmine frowned. Did she say so? She did not remember making such a promise. However, under
Chris’ gaze, taking into ount how upset he was and how much he wailed, she had no choice but to
nod. “Yes.”

“Yes! That’s amazing! I get to see Mommy every day! I want to see Mommy every day!” Chris danced a
happy dance on the spot.
Charmine could not even fight back the grin on her face as she gazed at the innocent Chris. Children
were so easily pleased and satisfied. How great would it be if she could be with him and watch him
grow? Mncholy fleeted in her eyes. 1 Would that happen? Would she be able to stay by his side
forever? It would be difficult…
At the thought of Annabel, she felt that everything was endlessly long. Endlessly uncertain…
“Go and help Mommy pack,” Anthony instructed Chris.
“Okay!” Chris ran over to take a suitcase and helped Charmine pack her clothes, skincare, some
books, and checkers manuals that she read. His tiny figure ran around with purpose, and it was an
endearing sight. Anthony sat beside Charmine and spoke in a hushed voice, “Charmine, I can let you
go home, but this doesn’t mean I’m letting you go. Please remember what you promised Momo-we’ll
meet once a day.” 1 Charmine was speechless at that.
She was framed! She thought they could both cool off and think things through. The best would be for
the two of them to stop meeting for a short amount of time, yet now she had to meet them once a day?
Charmine could not turn that down, however, at the thought of a giddy Chris. “Don’t worry, I’ll keep my
words. I’ll let you know the time and ce to meet, so wait for my instructions.”
What she meant was that she did not want the two of them to look for her. Since there were so many
uncertainties in their rtionship, she did not want others to know about them.
Anthony saw through her thoughts, and his eyes darkened.
After some time, Charmine pulled on the suitcase and walked to the garage without looking back. She
could feel two pairs of eyes staring at her, but she dared not to look back. She knew that once she
looked back, she would miss them.
Still, when she got on the motorbike, the rear mirror reflected the image of the two; an adult man and a
small boy. Anthony had one hand in his pocket, exuding an air of elegance and perfection, but the air
around him was somehow heavier and stiffer than usual. Chris looked at her with his watery eyes,
almost as though his cheeks would leak at any given time.
Charmine felt like arge hand was strangling her heart, and she felt suffocated. She wanted to run
back to them and forget about everything else, but her rationality held her back.
No, she could not go back to them! She had to let time show Anthony’s attitude toward Annabel. After
what Julian did to her, she only wanted a pure and simple rtionship with no furtherplications.
Furthermore, she would still see them once a day, so it was not considered as a proper separation.
Before she could fix things in the Jordan family, Anthony would mend things with Annabel should he
truly love her… Charmine could only hope so…
