chapter 593


    Charmine stiffened at the thought as she hastily agreed, "Okay!"


    Anthony then stood up and walked to the door, turning to her before he walked out. "I really had no choice but to


    carry Annabel. If mydy minds it, I won''t do it again."


    With that, he left.


    He knew clearly why Charmine declined his video-calls-it was Annabel.


    Charmine did not expect him to make such a promise. Her uncertain heart from the morning had be


    somewhat calmer.


    Anthony came to the conference in-person to meet her... Perhaps she really had thought too lowly of his feelings


    for her. 1


    She hoped everything would stay perfect for the next seven days.


    Charmine did not realize how her usually smart and dominating self became so small in terms of rtionships. She


    felt as if she was on a rollercoaster throughout.


    On that same day, the photo of Anthony and Charmine shaking hands made headlines in all business news outlets


    and went viral.


    In theb, McKenzie looked at a video clip of the press conference, and her elegant eyes darkened.


    Huh! Merely business partners? ''Merely''? Those two were that good at acting.


    Annabel was already hurt, yet Anthony still came to meet Charmine? Was Charmine so much more


    important, more so than Annabel? 1


    Everything might spiral out of control in the next seven days if McKenzie did nothing on this.


    Thinking of something, she took out her phone to text, [You''ve not made any progress? Do you want


    the Walker gang to exist at all?]


    Concurrently, at the Jordan Group...


    The Jordan Group steadily grew better due to their newfound partnership with Bailey Corporation.


    Several matters were easily fixed, and Charmine was finally able to go home early.


    Just as she walked out of her office, however, she bumped into a man.


    The man had a high pile of boxes and a handful of things. Their collision scattered everything.


    Thomp!


    A stack of boxes fell on the floor as slices of pizzasid everywhere.


    Drinks like Sprite were spilled all over Charmine.


    Charmine looked up to see that the person she bumped into was Tristan.


    She asked suspiciously, "Why are you here?"


    ''What a coincidence!" Tristan looked surprised. After a moment of shock, he exined, "I have a music


    shop down there, and I bought these for my friends. Seems like you''ve knocked down their food."


    Charmine looked at the pizzas on the ground and the Muse Club down the road. "You own Muse


    Club?" She frowned.


    It was not far from the Jordan Group, so Charmine had heard about it.This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    The ''Muse'' from Muse Club meant music, and the club was the most professional auditory club in Burlington. They


    had all kinds of instruments including the guitar, harp, flute, saxophone, drums, piano, and the likes.


    Anyone could hear any instrument and music in that club...for a price, of course.


    Rumors had it that the rooms were equipped with 3D surround sound, coupled with 3D real screen special effect.


    Even the lowest grade entrance ticket would cost 99,000 each.


    Tristan asked, ‘What? You''re interested in Muse Club?"


    "I’m quite curious. Do you have children''s songs in there?" asked Charmine.


    "Children''s song?" Tristan''s lips twitched. Someone would go to Muse Club just for some children''s song?


    Charmine nodded. She had parted with Chris for ten days-he must have missed her dearly. She also felt especially


    guilty toward him. 2


    Charmine, in ten more days, would bring Chris to Muse Club once they reunited.


    Noticing Charmine''s determined expression, the perplexed Tristan replied," Children''s songs aren''t impossible. I''ll


    ask someone to arrange it right away! Do you want to check out the effects?"
