Julian had to pay the price of threatening his—Anthony’s—woman!

At the mention of the five-years-ago incident, Robert’s face turned serious and solemn. Even though he did not like his sister Charmine that much, it was still a family issue. An outsider should never hear about the ugly truth, especially when that truth had things to do with Charmine’s reputation…

Robert shifted his gaze away. “I don’t know.”

“You don’t know?” Anthony’s eyes narrowed at his reply, his questioning gaze unusually dark. The long squinted eye-lines were long and narrowed, as if sharp rays of light were coming out of them.

Momentarily intimidated by his glare, Robert hesitated for a moment before he repeated, “Yes, and I was only thirteen at the time too. I don’t know anything. If you’re curious, go ask Charmine.” With that, he shut his eyes and avoided Anthony.

Anthony’s eyes became darker than before; it was plain to see that Robert hid something from him. What went down five years ago? Why was he

    “You don’t have to know about my personal stuff,” came Charmine’s reply in a low voice, “just take care of your own.” As if she remembered something, Charmine looked at Anthony. “Go to the Jordan family’s mansion first, send him there.” “Okay.” Anthony turned his steering wheel. All of a sudden, Robert called out hastily, “I don’t want to go back to the Jordan mansion!” “Do you want a repeat of tonight or something? Are you able to fully ensure your own safety?” Charmine asked rhetorically. Robert was caught off-guard, his words stuck in his throat at her question. However, after a moment, he said, “I won’t go back there even if I’d die outside!” “This is exactly what that person would want you to be,” Charmine scoffed. Tiffany had, in some form, spoiled Robert since they were kids. She encouraged Robert to skip school, set him up to become addicted to gaming, and even pulled up a gaming group of people to game with him. As a result, Robert wasted 10 years all for gaming

    “No need,” answered Anthony in a low voice, “we have to respect her.” Despite the fact that he oh-so badly wanted to know the truth, under no special circumstances would Anthony dive into the details unless Charmine herself told him about it. Chris merely made a small sound as a response before he sat in the car and waited diligently. Outside the Jordan mansion... Charmine and Robert walked side-by-side by the tall fence. As they reached the gate, Charmine stopped and looked at Robert. “Don’t tell anyone about Anthony saving you today and my relationship with him.” Robert frowned. “Why?” They were both people of importance. Anyone would want to tell the world about this kind of relationship, but why did Charmine intentionally hide this from everyone? A thought then occurred to Robert, and he anxiously asked, “Charmine, be honest. Are you Anthony’s mistress?” His mistress? Charmine glared at him. “Do I look like a person who’d be someone’s mistress?” “Then why don’

    There was nothing in the world Anthony could not resolve; Charmine needed only ask. As the incident ran past her mind, Charmine leaned back at the seat in tiredness. “It’s just a small matter, I’ll solve it myself.” Charmine closed her eyes right after; it was plain to see she did not want to entertain the matter. Anthony’s eyes turned darker, hinted with a faint worry. He had never seen her annoyed for quite some time. However, if she was unwilling to share, he had all the time to wait.Meanwhile... Tiffany hid in the washroom as she half-whispered into her phone, “What did you say? Everyone ran? And they said they don’t want the money?” “Yes, they said that Boss Bailey went to save Robert,” Ronnie reported. A fist was instantly slammed onto the sink in the washroom. Damn it! While Julian gave a very public proposal to Charmine, Julian was helping her resolve her problems from the shadows. What did Charmine do to deserve such graces? What had she got in her to deserve thos

    The next morning, Charmine received a call from Eric. “HollyOak terminated their contracts with a few artists, including Scarlet. They all want to meet you, and they need your signature. Since their terminating compensations are such large sums, and all of them are top supermodels in their own rights, the assistants couldn’t even make them go away.” “Alright,” answered Charmine, “I’ll come over.” Charmine turned to look at the bed and gazed at both Anthony and Chris, fast asleep. Perhaps they fell asleep rather late. Chris did not wake up early to paint; he slept soundly in the middle while Anthony laid flat on the inside of the bed. Two figures—one big, the other small—with skin that glistened like jade carvings. A warm smile appeared on Charmine’s lips unknowingly. Charmine got off the bed carefully as she did not want to wake them up.... Not long after she left, the phone on the bedside vibrated. Anthony opened his eyes to see a message popped up on his phone. [Hello, Mr.

    “Mhm,” Scarlet answered with a hint of discomfort in her eyes, but she changed the topic swiftly. “I heard that Mr. Eric and Mr. Young said your company would not pre-arrange the characteristics of your artists. Does that mean we get to be ourselves?” “Yes. I’ve gone through your profile; you can stick to your gentle and intellectual style. In a few days, you’ll be attending the annual Horizon Night as the Head.” Charmine said with a professional tone. “Really?” Scarlet called out in surprise. Horizon Night was an annual event. As organized by the organizer, thousands of people would walk around the heritage area in traditional attires, a globally-known event. The Head had always been Tiffany Jordan; the company never gave it to anyone else. Even when Scarlet took part in the past, she was only at the Second or Third seat. They even made her sneak in some snacks to eat during the show, in which she was criticized by many of the traditional-wear enthusiasts. All of a sudden,

    As he looked at her reaction, Rio could not help himself as he teased, “I haven’t seen you this anxious before! So you do care about things, huh?” They had kept in touch for the past five years, though Charmine was no longer the Charmine he knew five years ago. She turned into someone completely different, as though nothing could trigger her feelings. Charmine had a small frown on her. The truth was that before she came back, she did not care about this; she only wanted to look for that man once and for all. After she had spent some time with Anthony, however, she realized she hated that man so much that she would cut this man into pieces. She regained her composure and let go of her grip on Rio’s wrist. “Of course I care. A man like that living in this world is only causing more harm to others. Of course I have to fix it as soon as possible.” “It’s true that a boss has a better sense of responsibility than others. However…” Rio’s face turned serious. “Back in the club, we wer

    Anthony frowned; it was the first time Charmine called him. “What is it?” he spoke once he picked up. Charmine was already on her motorbike, her phone wedged between her chin and shoulder. “Don’t meet up with Tiffany. You can ask me whatever you want to know when we’re home. I’ll tell you what you want to know.” Anthony’s expression soured. “You found out?” “There’s nothing in the world that I don’t know of. Anthony, if you don’t want to become my enemy, come home now. I’ll wait for you at home. Tiffany is pulling a dirty trick, don’t go.” With that, she hung up. She believed that Anthony would come home. Once that was settled, Charmine used an anonymous phone number to send Julian a text: [Tiffany Jordan fainted at Green Café’s room 999, she only left your phone number.] Charmine’s eyes dulled after the text was sent. Based on Julian’s character, he would definitely go and look for Tiffany, and should they sleep together, they would be all over the headlines! The two wh*re

    At the same time, Charmine arrived at the Baileys’ mansion in her motorbike. She saw Chris seated in the living room, focused on his laptop. Warily, she asked, “Momo, where’s your Daddy?” “Daddy went out and isn’t back yet. Why are you back so early, Mommy?” Chris put down his laptop and ran toward Charmine. He stopped right before her and reached his arms, to which Charmine habitually responded by picking him up into her arms. “Did your Daddy drive?” Charmine frowned. “Or was Luke driving?” “Uncle Luke drove,” Chris answered. Charmine made a quick mental calculation. Luke’s driving speed was at about 40 kilometers per hour. From the mansion to Green Café, it only needed 25 minutes maximum. Charmine took up half an hour to come home, so why was Anthony home yet? Perhaps she was wrong all along? Perhaps Anthony did not care about her words and went on to meet Tiffany? A wave of uneasiness hit Charmine as she placed Chris on the sofa and took out her phone to call Anthony. Be

    Dior was still lost in her storm of thoughts when a shadowy figure zipped past her and ran toward Harry.When she spotted this familiar figure, she reacted quickly and held onto him."Let go of me!" growled Guy. "How dare he slap you and misunderstood you? I have to beat some sense into him!"Harry broke free and chased after Harry.Dior, despite having lost all hope and life in her, mustered the last strand of her will to chase after Guy and reeled him back. "Brother, don't," she muttered, "spare your energy…" Her sorrow clouded her eyes as she mumbled, "He’s the man I love. Even though he hates me, I won’t allow you to hurt him. As for the explanation…"Dior smiled ironically. "Whatever. That slap decimated every beautiful daydream I have about him, anyway."She no longer expected anything from him.He had no trust in her, so what would it matter if she finally got him? He did not even love her, and he did not trust her either.Dior smiled elegantly, but her eyes were fille

    Dior looked forward to that new shift.She watched as Harry made his way into the restaurant silently, unable to deter her mind from the daydreams she had of him, of the new chapter of their story they would have.He would apologize to her, trying to redeem himself, and kiss her dearly as he embraced her. Later down the line, they would have a child of their own, too.Harry's long legs walked in strides, his dark gaze trained on Dior.The bright light shone on Dior’s delicately stunning face, and she also wore a red dress.He remembered her wearing this back in Mount Village.He could remember how alluring she looked back then, how they stayed in the same room, how she put down her ego to treat him with so much gentleness.Harry’s cold face mellowed down, but recalling a certain memory, the vague wistfulness in him vanished and he sat in front of her.Dior looked at him fondly, like she always would. "Long time no see."Her eyes burned brightly as if she wanted to drink in his

    Dior examined the footage the moment she received it.True enough, it showed Sonia and George talking about their little deal. It also showed how Dior was telling the truth while they both ganged up on her.Dior’s frail heart felt as though it was rejuvenated once more, feeling as though blood was once more pumped into her heart. Her dull eyes devoid of hope regained their lost luster once more.Not thinking twice, she dialed Harry's number with this evidence, though he had to be busy, seeing as he did not pick up even after the phone rang for a long while.Just as she was about to hang up, Harry picked up the phone."What do you want?"On the other end of the call was the voice that she had missed for so long. His low, hoarse voice sounded so cold and emotionless.Hearing his voice brought Dior back to the image of his handsome face, and her heart skipped a beat.She tried her best to restrain her fluttering emotions as she tried to speak calmly, "Do you have time?

    At Mount Village…Inside the elegant bamboo house was Dior, dressed in a beige dress. She sat in the front yard as she took sips of her wine.The sunlight shone past the leaves and illuminated her, yet she exuded an air of loneliness.She swirled the glass and could not help recalling the moments she spent with Harry.In the beginning, she was attracted by his looks; he looked so gentle and elegant.She gave him money, kept him company, and continuously showed up around him in hopes of conquering him.Alas, she ended up in this state.The time she spent with him in Mount Village was the happiest time she had ever had. They had lived inside the bamboo house together, where he took care of her and claimed her to be his woman.They even laid inside the same room.Everything was so beautiful.Cursed was her luck, however, that it was just an illusion.

    "Although Susan was unhappy, she should've voiced out her displeasure instead of bottling things. Cheating is wrong, regardless. Furthermore, if she wanted a career, she didn't have to stay home and depend on her husband."Grandma Bailey halted.Was that what Charmine truly thought of?Grandma Bailey thought Charmine would find Susan too aggressive unto herself.Charmine glanced at Susan again and apathetically commented, "She doesn't want to make money on her own, but she wants to be rich while complaining about her man not making time for her and taking care of her? If a woman has no ability of her own and also blames others for her miseries, all she's worth is to sit quietly at home and wait for her husband to come home. She also has no right to cheat! This is how the world works."Charmine patted Grandma Bailey’s shoulder and held Anthony’s hand, her words met with everyone's evidently surprised gazes and their silence.Grandma Bailey was shocked. Sure, Charmine sounded rathe

    The colossal cruise started to drift away from the pier.Eric stood on the cruise and let the wind blow at him, loneliness and hatred still oozing from his being.He stared at the blue ocean ahead of him as Charmine's words rang in his mind unceasingly.'Will you really feel good after you've killed them?''You saw Susan suffering from a serious wound; would you still kill the one sibling you have left in the world?'"Forgive them and yourself.'Deliberating everything carefully, his lips curled into a bitter smile.It was true, after all, that Charmine understood him the most.Eric poured himself another drink and downed it with loneliness as he allowed the cruise to bring him wherever it would take him.…Susan was still inside the operating room when Charmine and the rest of the Baileys rushed into the hospital.Darryl stood before the room, his expression blank, his figure lonely and helpless.So many things had happened in half a day.He found out about his wife's inf

    "No one's stopping you now. Eat!"Anthony clenched his hands tightly and took another glance at Charmine. He was more determined than before, and he was close to eating the pills in the bottle.Charmine, who was held hostage, gradually opened her eyes at that moment. Her gaze drifted toward Eric before she asked, her tone challenging, "Will you really feel good after you've killed them? You saw Susan suffering from a serious wound; would you still kill the one sibling you have left in the world?"Eric halted, and his eyes darkened.Charmine had just woken up, yet what she said…He cast a cold glance at Charmine. "It's my business, and it has nothing to do with you!"They were his family, and he did not want a family like this!Charmine looked squarely at him. "Eric, I don’t care if you used me or plotted against me all these years; I've treated you like a true friend, nothing more nor less.

    Anthony's breath hitched when he saw Charmine.He clenched his fists and, without doubting himself, relented "I can agree to your terms, so let her go right away. This has nothing to do with her; you only hate me after all. As long as you let her go, I'll take the pill. Everything will end right away."Susan shook her head. "We'll die after eating the pill. I’m not taking that!"She had just reunited with Eric, and she did not want to die yet. She looked at Eric and begged, "Please let Anthony be, why don't you? He’s your brother, after all, and he doesn’t even know about your existence. If you’re really angry, just kill Charmine, and I'll make it up to you—"Anthony's expression contorted in sheer fury upon hearing Susan's plea, and he glared at her with murderous intent."This was all your fault, so what right do you have to make Charmine take your blame?!""What on earth are you going on about?" snapped Grandma Bailey.
