chapter 1618


    This was the only way Anthony had to talk to Charmine.


    How else could he speak to her with the cold shoulder she gave him?


    Anthony felt a sharp pain in his stomach.


    Standing at the yard, his face was tense and pale.


    He clenched his fists and remained on the ground. He did not make a sound as he let the rain wash


    over him.


    He did not know how long it had been, but he started to feel listless.


    His legs grew limp, his head and eyes blurry.


    Anthony''s lips went pale and curled up into a smile.


    A secondter...


    His vision turned dark and he lost his bnce, falling heavily with a thud on the ground.


    Before he lost his consciousness, all he could think of was, ''Charmine, you’ll finallye for me, won’t


    you?’


    After Luke had arrived at themunity house, he put everything down. He saw how the downpour


    was incessant and frowned.


    Anthony was standing in the rain. If it went on, he might get ill.


    He had stayed up all nightst night, and his body would not be able to take it!


    Growing worried, Luke took an umbre and ran back to the dpidated house.


    When he rushed back to the bamboo house, he looked over worriedly and saw that Anthony was no


    longer standing there.


    He instantly felt relieved. Anthony finally went inside.


    However...


    When he arrived at the door, an unmoving figure on the ground came into sight.


    "Boss!" Luke’s heart sank, and he ran to Anthony.

    Anthony had fallen on the ground, his face was pale and his breathing was weak. It was as if he was


    dying.


    "Boss! What’s happening? Don’t scare me...! Help!"


    Not caring how loud he was, Luke cried out for help anxiously. He tossed the umbre away and


    carried Anthony in his arms, making his way to Charmine''s house. "Something''s happened, Ms.


    Jordan! Boss Bailey has fainted!"


    Inside the room.


    Charmine was working on the development project. When she heard the anxious voice, she frowned.


    She did not seem to care. She guessed that this might have been one of Anthony''s tricks.


    However, she thought of how he had not eaten for the entire day, his house flooded, and he was


    drenched...


    She looked at the rain outside her window. As if being pulled out, she walked and opened the door.


    Luke looked visibly anxious, and beside him was the fainted Anthony on the ground.


    Charmine saw how pale his face was, lips purple and all, and her heart sank.


    However, her face remained calm as she asked, "Are you not calling a doctor?" "He didn''t want to go,"


    replied Luke helplessly. "I don''t know where the doctor is."


    Charmine had not spoken when Luke begged, "Ms. Jordan, please let him in. I''ll look for a doctor."


    Charmine pursed his lips. She looked at Anthony and thought for a while before saying, "Bring him in."


    Luke let out a sigh of relief and instantly carried Anthony inside.


    Charmine frowned. She looked at Anthony apathetically, unfazed and unruffled. All she felt was that his


    presence had tainted the air in her home.


    Luke was going to ask her where the doctor was, but he saw her holding up her umbre and walking


    out.


    Her figure was cold like snow in the night rain. She left them cruelly.


    Luke was speechless.


    How could she be so cruel?


    Was she...looking for a doctor for Anthony?


    Luke thought so. He helped Anthony get out of his drenched clothes and sat with him by the side.


    A whileter, Anthony''s cold body suddenly turned hot.
