Outside the room, Annabel pushed open the door for them like a maid as she softly spoke, “President Bailey, I’ve prepared the room for you. Please tell me if there’s anything to your distaste.”

Anthony simply glanced around the room. Although it was not grand, it was clean, tiny, and simple. The room was newly furnished by workers with pure wood. It was acceptable.

He said coldly, “I’m satisfied with the room, but I’d like to be alone.”

‘Do not disturb me’—that was what he meant.

“Okay,” Annabel nodded instantly.

Anthony held Chris' hand and walked into the room.

Chris thought of how Charmine could see everything through the monitor, monitoring their every move, and that made him happy.

Luckily, he arranged for men to set up the cameras. Otherwise, Mommy would have made random assumptions.

Since Daddy gave Annabel the cold shoulder, Mommy would not be angry for sure!

He ran into the room happily.

Suddenly, Annabel called out from behind, “President Bailey, I’m…sorry

    From the corner of his eyes, Julian spotted a Guci portrait of Tiffany and Charmine on the wall of the second floor. Tiffany, in that photo, wore a crisp yet dainty outfit as she sat on the neck of the flamingo, seemingly innocent and pure. The haughty, sophisticated Charmine behind Tiffany donned a bright red outfit that fluttered in the air. In contrast, Tiffany’s appearance was completely neglected—her beauty was not even a tenth of Charmine’s. How blind was he to have liked Tiffany in the past? Why did he think Tiffany was more suitable to be his wife? Even he did not expect such an evil heart was concealed behind Tiffany’s sweet facade. As for Charmine… His mind drifted to how Charmine was in the past. She used to dress crassly, but there was no denying that sweet smile of hers. Day after day, she would follow behind him, calling his name with a sweet voice: “Julian, please like me.” “Julian, I made this breakfast for you with love.” “Julian, I saw a newly open

    Early in the morning, at Southern Village... The morning mist blanketed the small village, the atmosphere quiet and tranquil. The delicate house made of bamboo was a home hidden away from the rest of the world. Every morning, Annabel would wake up early to manage the vegetables and prepare breakfast. A photographer had captured her movement, made it into a short clip, and posted it on social media. Within a few days, Annabel’s account already garnered 40 million fans, impressively so like she was a celebrity. It was because she was never fake in the clip and did not do it for show—it was purely habitual. There she was, carrying a big basket of dried woods she got from the forest on her back, weighing over 100 kilograms. Her small figure bent over due to the pressure and her clear face full of sweat was not a pretty, dainty sight. If it was some other superstars, they would think this made an ugly posture. However, Annabel did not mind at all, she carried the blocks of wood o

    After placing Annabel on the bed, Anthony took two steps back.At the Jordan Group building... Charmine had her hands full with paperwork and various tasks. As she had picked all the materials, she would announce their collaboration with the Bailey Corporation later in the afternoon, making Jordan Group the first company to receive Bailey Corporation’s support. The men sent by Anthony to sign the deal were Nial and his assistant, Luke. It was a big deal. Jordan Group, at this rate, was rising once more. Unexpectedly, Julian sent a few photos to Charmine. [Check the news, Charmine. This is the man you like.] Charmine clicked open her WhatsApp and saw Julian had sent her photos of Anthony with Annabel. It was either Anthony walking toward Annabel quickly, Anthony carrying on Annabel, or Anthony carrying Annabel into the wooden house. The small Annabel was covered in blood, like a wounded sheep in Anthony’s arms. They both looked like the prince and the princess from a stor

    Charmine had tried to reduce her contact with Anthony for the past three days, hoping to make less of an impression in his life, allowing him and Annabel more space. Still, she would accept Anthony’s request for video-calls in those few days. At that moment, in her office, Charmine stayed silent for a while and denied the call. [Charmine: I’m busy, and I’ve got some things to sort out. Settle what you need to do first.] Although Anthony did text her and report back to her right away, this situation showed that Anthony was not too against Annabel. She needed the two of them to have enough space alone to make sure there was no room for development, that there was no chance of them getting back together before she could let this go. She did not want to feel like she was a homewrecker, a third-wheeler between the two. Anthony saw her reply, and her eyes darkened gradually. Charmine was acting strange, and her text showed it. He clicked on the call button a few times

    Charmine heard it all—the gossips—as she eyed her watch from time to time, a frown etched on her face as she did. Did Anthony not say that he had asked Nial and Luke to arrive before 3pm, sharp? Why have none of them arrived yet? The Marketing Director, Sheena walked forward to remind her, “Director Charmine, all the reporters are waiting.” The press conference must start on time, regardless of whether the Baileys’ representatives came or not. Charmine took a look at the end of the road and turned to walk on stage. She felt unusually complicated and heavy. Perhaps both Luke and Nial went to help Annabel due to what happened. Furthermore, Anthony agreed to this three days ago, so maybe he had forgotten… Luckily, they had signed the deal, and Charmine could still announce their partnership and show the signed documents, even if none of their representatives showed up. Of course, that might not effectively dispel speculations. Charmine took a deep breath before walking on

    Charmine’s eyelids jumped. These reporters were all gossipers—professional gossipers. She was done for if they knew her relationship with Anthony. Meanwhile, another reporter asked, “Ms. Jordan, President Bailey, why did you come to this deal? Is there something between the two of you?” Seeing how Anthony was about to answer, she lowered her head and took the chance to answer, “Please don’t speculate nonsense. President Bailey and I are purely business partners.” Business partners? A flash of unnoticeable darkness appeared in Anthony’s eyes. Purely business partners? Was Charmine that eager to wash herself clean from him? Someone then asked, “How did Ms. Jordan seal this deal with President Bailey? Isn’t it impossible for most people to meet President Bailey?” “I went to the Bailey Corporation to discuss the deal,” Charmine cleverly replied, “and President Bailey was merely impressed by the Jordan Group’s proposal. That’s it.” Her tone was professional and business-l

    Charmine did not respond to Anthony, and he sensed the coldness in her eyes. He reached out and grabbed her wrists, pulling her toward him. Charmine, not fast enough to register Anthony’s tug, fell to his lap as their bodies grazed one another. She struggled to get up, but Anthony tightened his grip around her waist. “What? We haven’t met for two days, and we’re strangers now?” His husky voice felt suffocating as his frosty aura hit her in the face. Charmine’s heartbeats fastened, but she composed herself and warningly growled, “This is an office, and there are people outside. Let go of me!” “Does that mean I won’t have to let you go if this isn’t an office and there’s no one outside?” asked Anthony. That stumped Charmine. How ridiculous. Would anyone even expect that President Bailey would say such things? She had no choice but to bring out her ultimate weapon. “Anthony, don’t you forget about our promise. If you break the promise today, the countdown restarts.” R

    Charmine stiffened at the thought as she hastily agreed, “Okay!” Anthony then stood up and walked to the door, turning to her before he walked out. “I really had no choice but to carry Annabel. If my lady minds it, I won’t do it again.” With that, he left. He knew clearly why Charmine declined his video-calls—it was Annabel. Charmine did not expect him to make such a promise. Her uncertain heart from the morning had become somewhat calmer. Anthony came to the conference in-person to meet her… Perhaps she really had thought too lowly of his feelings for her. She hoped everything would stay perfect for the next seven days. Charmine did not realize how her usually smart and dominating self became so small in terms of relationships. She felt as if she was on a rollercoaster throughout.... On that same day, the photo of Anthony and Charmine shaking hands made headlines in all business news outlets and went viral. In the lab, McKenzie looked at a video clip of the press

    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.

    "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.

    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.
