chapter 1147
Charmine gulped. Shended herself in trouble again!
Why did she say that to Anthony? Was she asking for trouble?!
Anthony noticed how herplexion turned red. Oh, how easy it was to toy with her.
He reached out to ce her on hisp as he spoke in a half-whisper," Alright, I''ll stop teasing you now.
Take a rest, and I’ll wake you upter."
She was so immersed in her work for the past two days, caught up with all the nning and
preparation, that she only had two hours of sleep. She needed to rest.
Charmine also knew Anthony too well that he would not go out anytime soon, so they would have to kill
some time on the balcony.
Since there was nothing else to do, she might as well sleep for a while.
She shut her eyes and calmed herself to rest.
Her thoughts still ran rampant, however. Charmine wondered how Uncle Sam was doing with the
preparations. She wondered if they could garner the attention of M35 Laboratory.
She wondered if Guy''s anemia was progressing for the better.
When Anthony saw that she was frowning, he reached out tofort her," Don’t worry and sleep. I''ll
contact the other research teams. Burlington won’t lose to other countries."
His words eased Charmine.
Anthony was right. Every country would want to fight for the first prize, and they would showcase their
greatest projects for that to happen.
With that, there would surely be things that could attract the attention of M35 Laboratory.
Maybe Charmine was all worn-out after those two days, or maybe it was Anthony gently rubbing her
forehead, but with his gentle strokes, she gradually rxed. As her eyelids grew heavier, she fell
asleep, i
Anthony''s eyes were filled with adoration at the sight of a sleeping Charmine.
After making sure that she was asleep, he took out his phone and turned on the silent mode before he
worked on it.
Charmine slept for a long time, from early that noon tote afternoon-four hours in total. 1
Anthony did not wake her up.
When he counted that it was about time, he gently ced her on the swing and proceeded to drape a
nket over her from before he stood up and walked away.
A thought urred to him just after taking two steps. He then turned back and put his face on
Charmine''s lips.
Even though Charmine wore no makeup at home, she would still put on a bright lipstick to look sharp.
With that, a lipstick mark appeared on Anthony''s face.
He walked out with satisfaction and buttoned his shirt as if trying to hide something, i
Nial, Yvonne, and Guy were chatting in the living room, and all three of them jolted at the sight of
Anthony.
That went especially for Nial. He wanted to yell at him.
He knew Anthony and Charmine had a good rtionship, but he did not expect Anthony toe out
like this with a big red lipstick mark on his face!
He even buttoned himself up as if hiding many more of this!
Goodness! Was he so inconsiderate of their feelings?
Although Yvonne was loud and bubbly, she was still a woman. She reminded him weakly, "Anthony, do
you want to shower first?” "No need, you all came in in a rush. What was it about?" he spoke as he sat
down, seemingly ignoring the mark on his face. 1
Nial thrashed and wailed internally. Anthony might not want to shower, but they wanted him to! 1
Could he not be more considerate of others'' feelings!?
Only Guy remained more calm as he spoke, "It''s not too big of a deal, just take good care of Ms.
Jordan." ''Who says it''s not a big deal? We''re waiting for Anthony to fix this!" Yvonne thought of the
important matter and was worried about Guy. She said to Anthony, ''The test result is out. From
tomorrow onward, Guy will need a hundred milliliters of blood each day. Where do we find that much
for him?” 100 milliliters per day, and that equated to 1000 milliliters for ten days... 1 Things had gotten
