chapter 563
Later that morning...
Charmine arrived at the Jordan Group building and held a morning briefing, delegating tasks needed to be
done.
Their most important task of the day was to recruit those staff who left.
However, those staff lived on their wages and thus were scared of unforeseen risks. They feared they would
not receive their wages or anything simr to that nature happening to the Jordan Group again, such as
bankruptcy or internal conflicts.
Charmine had to discuss a strategy with the human resource team to tackle that matter.
At that moment, Charmine received a text from Kay.
[Kay: Boss Jordan, Nial is doing the DNA test on the top floor of Royal Hospital. Would you like to have a
look?]
The four Uncles and Kay hoped for Charmine to go so she could get over Anthony.
Anthony had a child with another woman. Why would Charmine still insist on staying with him?
Charmine was at a loss for a good while, and it was only after a moment she texted, [I’m busy. I’m not going.]
True, she was busy, but she also did not want to face it.
Charmine, silent for a good while, then texted Eric, [Go to Royal Hospital for me. Watch Nial do the
DNA test.]
She knew it was impossible for Annabel to lie. She knew it was impossible for Anthony to have slept
with any other woman than Annabel, and she was not ready to face it, but a pivotal matter like this
should be ironed out without fail.
Since people like Kay wished for her to leave Anthony, she could not trust Kay on this. Eric, in this
case, was more reliable.
[Eric: Okay.]
Strangely, Charmine found it hard to concentrate on the meeting. Luckily, the ideas given by the human
resource team were good, thus she did not have to squeeze her brain for some ideas.
After the meeting was dismissed, she reclined on the chair and waited patiently.
Thoughts in a mess, Charmine could only take out her phone and read some news to burn time.
Unexpectedly, right after she refreshed her feed, she saw the news:
N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
[Bailey Corporation signing the only female artist—Annabel Smith! ]
[Annabel Smith broadcasted for the first day, Bailey Corporation sponsored a million bucks with their
official ount!]
[Rumors on Annabel selling her body, Bailey Corporation refused to answer!]
Every news article stated how Bailey Corporation financially supported Annabel handsomely. There
were also many photos of Annabel dressed in simple cotton and linen clothing as she helped out the
workers rebuilding her old, run-down house.
There was no denying how beautiful Annabel was, her eyes clean and sparkling clear with no
impurities. She looked tough as her small figure carried arge bundle of firewood.
What was so special about Annabel was how hardworking she was, enduring pain. She was not fake
and was involved in the building of her house. Theizens spoke of her highly.
Charmine had a strange feeling in her. If she was a man, she would like a clean and pure, yet strong
and tough woman like Annabel. 1
If this was a drama series, Annabel would be the main character of the drama. Charmine? She was
clearly Annabel and Anthony’s third -wheeler...
Eric, at that moment, got back to her.
[Eric: The result shows that Chris is indeed Annabel’s child.] 1
Charmine’s pupils dted, and her hand that held her phone jolted vigorously. 1
Charmine had expected that result, but she felt inexplicably sad when she heard it anyway.
Anthony slept with Annabel. Annabel suffered ten months for Anthony and gave birth to Chris.
Annabel was Chris’ actual mother... 7
Although Chris liked her more, what the child needed the most was thepany of his birth mother.
Perhaps...she should be more rational and actually reconsider this matter.
Meanwhile, on the top floor of Royal Hospital, in an unnoticeable corner of the staircase...
Miranda walked to Mckenzie and reported happily, “Madam, great news! The result is out, and Annabel is
indeed Chris’ mother! ” 1
McKenzie’s eyes darkened instantly.
Really?
However...
