chapter 1554
Anthony clenched his fists. When he saw how indifferent Charmine was, it hurt him to even breathe.
Charmine nonchntly closed her script and looked at him, calmly adding, "Is there anything else, Mr.
Bailey?"
Anthony bit back his anger, and he wanted to ask why she had be so heartless. However, the
words went against his heart when he instead said, "I hope Ms. Jordan designs something unique. My
fiancee likes unique things."
Charmine''s grip on her script tightened, but her delicate face remained incredibly serene. "Sure. We’ve
received the payment, after all. I''ll try my best to meet my client’s request."
She looked at Anthony coldly as if she was an outsider. "The ring will be made within a week or so. I
hope you and your fiancee will have a long, happy rtionship." 1
Truth be told, it hurt Charmine to even utter those words. It felt like her heart was punctured.
Anthony''s face turned green. He red at her for a while before his lips curled up into a mocking smile.
"Thank you for your blessing." 1
No longer wanting to be hurt, Anthony turned and left angrily.
When Charmine confirmed the door was shut, she broke down like a tense string, listlessly falling onto
the sofa, eyes dull.
Anthony had already hurt her thoroughly. Why did he have toe and add salt to her wound so
cruelly?
She hugged her knees and curled up on the sofa, allowing her mind to roam free.
She would never have expected Anthony and her to havee to this stage.
She hated herself, too. Was she not strong and undefeatable?
Why was she so weak in this matter?
If she could pick it up, she could put it down. That was her way of doing things, not like what she was
doing-moping around for that dirtbag.
Charmine knew she could not continue like this.
She took a deep breath and looked away, tidying her desk before she made her way back to her vi.
After sorting everything out, she went into her study and started designing the ring. Try as she did, her
mind was still whirling even as she gazed at her drawing pad.
She had to design a wedding ring for Anthony and Waverly?
Did Anthony hate her that much? He had to marry Waverly in half a month''s time, too...
It all felt like a dream.
Anthony, who once would give up his life for her, ended up scarring her horrifyingly.
It felt as though a bee had stung her heart, and it ached.

Charmine sat before herputer. From 7 p.m. to 12 a.m. that very day, the drawing pad remained
clean.
She massaged her sore brows and smiled mockingly.
She was so strong in front of Anthony, yet she had fallen into such a state now?
Heh... How useless.
She tried emptying her mind and began to draw.
However...
When the pen finallynded and moved across the pad, it was not a ring that she ended up drawing.
Instead, she ended up writing a word: ''Bailey.''
Charmine snapped out of her thoughts and, realizing what she had done, deleted the draft.
Sheposed herself, forcing her mind to focus solely on the rind. Her fair, slender fingers wrapped
tightly around the pen before finally, an idea was tranted onto the pad.
It was just a circle. She had no clue what came after that.
With that, Charmine stared at the drawing pad with mixed feelings from that midnight till three in the
morning.
Anthony''s frustration never left him, even after he left the filming set.
He sped nkly across the highway and, not realizing it, pulled over at Charmine''s vi.
The second floor was still bright.
She was home.
Anthony rolled down his window and lit up a cigarette. Though his vision was shrouded with smoke, he
fixed his eyes on the second floor.
All the while, he kept reminding himself that it was time to leave, that there was no point on him
keeping watch.
The more he watched, he might end up seeing Mauriceing back to her.
His body failed to register themand, however. He did not want to waste even one second as he
continued to watch her from his car. Nobody knew how many hours had passed, but the light finally
went off.
