chapter 789


    Anthony kept his usual unperturbed, esteemed disposition as the crowd teased him, and no one knew what he was thinking then. Moreover,


    he did not argue as well.


    ''After all, teasings are just teasings. It’s better than having to dance with Waverly.''


    Waverly lifted the train of her dress and headed toward the dance floor. She wore a white chest wrap dress with diamonds adorning the hem


    of her dress. The diamonds twinkled gently yet aesthetically as she stood under the elegant lighting, making her seem much more


    prestigious.


    Waverly danced to the piano piece and would swing her slim arms or sway side to side with her slim waist. She even alternated to creative


    choreography as her dress fluttered. No matter how she moved, it was oh- so captivating everyone held their breath.


    Max, sitting at a corner, looked on as his eyes gleamed with love for Waverly...one that was not brotherly love. 2


    Lifting his ss of red wine, he sipped at it as he shifted his gaze to Anthony not too far away, smiling widely.


    ’Waverly’s figure was said to be the most gorgeous among the rest in the entire world. After seeing her dancing, how can Anthony remain


    Moreover, even if Anthony kept his calm, no one would ever know that Max had specially arranged the music for Anthony.

    With the splendid music, apanied with ady’s graceful dancing and a powerful drug, such an


    image would be rooted deep in Anthony''s thoughts that he would be bewitched. 1


    That powerful drug was at Anthony''s...


    Max shifted his gaze to Anthony*s wine ss. He tampered with it during themotion, and the


    clueless Anthony would drink his wine from time to time.


    At that moment, he shifted his gaze at Waverly just so no one would notice him acting oddly.


    Anthony initially nced at Waverly nonchntly, but he gradually felt something was off. It felt as if he


    was poisoned, and that made him keep staring at her.


    It made him want to look at Waverly''s hand, waist, legs...


    Just as those thoughts came to him like a wave, Anthony''s gaze hardened.


    ''This is no innocent dance... Someone did something to it.’ 1


    Anthony then eyed Luke who was just beside him, and ten secondster...


    Ring! Ring! The phone in Anthony''s pocket rang.


    When everyone was enjoying the dance, he stood up instead, walked to a deserted corner, and took


    out his phone to answer the call, much to Max’s chagrin.


    ''Damn it! That drug isn’t as potent as others. An effect will only take ce when he listened to the


    music and spectated the dance, yet Anthony just had to leave! Was he not going to watch the dance


    and just talk on the phone?*


    He had spent millions to purchase that drug, and it just went down the drain!


    Max anticipated Anthony''s call to end quickly-it would be enough for him to just watch Waverly’s for


    even a minute. However, for three whole minutes, he was constantly on the phone! 1


    Coincidentally, Anthony ended the call when the dance was over, and he made his way back to his spot.


    A round of apuse broke out like thunder in the venue.


    "Ms. D''Cruz''s dance is just way too stunning!"


    i''ve never seen such gorgeous choreography. That ballerina neck and back is just like a first-ss national dancer!"


    "Mr. Bailey is so lucky!"


    The entire crowd cheered and praised.


    Waverly walked to the stage and toward Anthony as everyone apuded her.


    Suddenly...


    Spilled soup was on the floor where Waverly walked, and it was not known how it got there. Abruptly, Waverly slipped on it and, unable to


    bnce herself, fell harshly to the floor.
