chapter 1088


    Yvonne had a taste of the vitamin before. She knew how listless it felt after consuming it; it felt like


    having a bad cold.


    Charmine drank so much wine as well, so she should not be able to exert that much energy...yet she


    pinched herself to carry the water bucket? She was that strong?


    Nial exined, "You underestimated Charmine. ording to the investigation, she had lived under


    harsh conditions in Africa with no one taking care of her. In the most severe incident, she had high


    fever and pneumonia; she even coughed blood yet was still able to cook herself a meal. She was used


    to living alone, and she''s tough as nails. Since she wants to keep her distance from Guy, it''s a no-


    brainer she won’t call for him." 1


    Yvonne frowned. Charmine was so strong-willed? Was her test useless then? 1


    Luckily...

    Inside the room.


    Charmine finally carried the water bucket to the bedside. Her body felt soft like mud, and it was only


    after she rested for a while that she drank the water.


    Guy, who was outside, heard motions and shuffling in the room, thus he asked, "Do you need help?"


    "No need. I''ll be sleeping for a while. You call Nial to check on Yvonne," said Charmine.


    Guy agreed and took out his phone to contact Nial.


    He hoped that Nial coulde back sooner. If anything else happened to Charmine, it would be tough.


    Nial, still in the car, received his text as he said to Yvonne, "Let''s go back, the test is over."


    "Wait for a little longer." Yvonne was patiently looking at the tablet''s screen. She did not want to go


    back so soon. It was incredibly seldom for Anthony to be out for the entire day, and such an opportunity


    might nevere again...


    The thought kept Yvonne interested as she gazed at the screen, disying the sleeping Charmine.


    With its high resolution, they could tell Charmine was not well.


    The asleep Charmine suddenly felt the after-effect of the alcohol rushing up her head.


    Sensing something, she sat up right away and dragged herself into the washroom where she let the


    water run.


    When Nial saw that, he frowned.


    What was wrong with Charmine? Why did she suddenly go and shower in the washroom?


    Unless...


    His brows furrowed as his sharp stare aimed at Yvonne, displeased. " Yvonne Eckert, did you do


    something behind my back!?"


    Yvonne was dumbfounded-she had indeed done something without Nial knowing it.


    She thought it would be a dangerous situation, and with nobody else at home except Guy, Chamine


    would seek help from Guy. 1


    Who would have thought that Charmine would rather use cold water to shower instead ofing close


    to Guy? 2


    Was it true, then, that Charmine felt nothing for Guy?


    Seeing that Yvonne did not speak, Nial could vaguely make out a theory as he grew furious. "Yvonne


    Eckert, you''re going to get me killed!" he hissed as he started the car and raced back home.


    Yvonne did not stop him and let him drive back.


    After getting out of the car, Nial pulled her out and rushed inside, his re never dropping. "Go and


    take care of Charmine! If anything happens, you might as well be dead!" 1


    Yvonne knew the situation had turned dire, so she jogged into the bedroom.


    When Guy saw that they came back, he frowned. "You''re both home early."


    Nial said nothing as he waited outside silently. He seemed anxious as he was praying.


    He hoped Charmine was fine. Otherwise, should Anthonye home, Nial would be sent to Africa for


    three days and nights! 2


    Yvonne walked into the washroom and saw Charmine in the bathtub. She looked cold with no sense of


    warmth.


    Her face was so pale and bloodless that her lips were equally pale as well.
