Charmine pulled over at Royal Hospital and parked her motorbike. She then keyed in the passcode Anthony told her and walked into the VIP lift.

Annabel was fast asleep on the ward of the top floor, her skin pale as sunlight shone on her.

Not wanting to disturb Annabel, Charmine walked to the resting lounge only to find Anthony and Waverly nowhere in sight.

Of course, she eventually found someone at the medical laboratory—Nial.

He was sorting out a pile of documents when he saw Charmine coming, and the sight of her shocked him.

“Charmine, you’re finally out?”

“Yeah.”

Coming closer to him, she asked suspiciously, “Where’s Anthony?”

“He…” Nial hesitated and tentatively looked at Charmine. “Did you see all of the news online?”

Charmine nodded. “What actually happened? You may tell me everything, or I can find out myself.”

Nial fell silent for a good while before he eventually mustered, “Some of the news online aren’t true...but the article about them getting engaged in t

    Charmine turned to look at the glass windows. True enough, they were Anthony and Waverly walking in from the outside. The suit-up Anthony displayed a powerful temperament while Waverly walked behind him dressed in her Chanel suit with pearls, elegant and exquisite. Next to one another, they looked like a perfect couple. The sight caught Charmine off-guard, and it felt as though her heart was punctured repeatedly. The first time she saw Anthony in ten days was him with Waverly… The moment Anthony spotted Charmine, his stoic face shifted into faint delight. “My lady?” Just two words, yet there was an apparent hint of surprise in them. “You two should talk,” said Waverly, “I’ll go check on Annabel.” She turned away elegantly. “I have some matters to sort out too, so you two talk.” Nial walked out of the medical laboratory and thoughtfully closed the door behind him. That left only Anthony and Charmine in the laboratory. Eyeing Anthony who stood not too far from

    Susan? Master D'Cruz? Things would take a turn for the worst if they saw her here. Charmine’s eyelids fluttered open widely. Rare as it was, she felt rather panicked. Anthony reached for her hand calmly and led her to the equipment room. “You stay here for a while,” he assured her, “it'll only take a few minutes.” “Alright,” agreed Charmine. The moment the equipment room’s door closed shut, Susan and a middle-aged man walked in. Seemingly genial and easy-going, the man was dressed in a green cotton top. He was the father of Waverly, Fredrick D’Cruz. When Fredrick saw Anthony, he had a friendly smile on his face. “Come, Anthony. Your mother and I came today to speak to you about the engagement party happening in ten days.” Anthony walked over to sit on the sofa merely because he did not want them to notice the equipment room. Meanwhile, Susan pulled Waverly to sit on the sofa. She was a little too close to Anthony’s liking. Fredrick asked caringly, “You’re bot

    Fredrick insisted that Anthony and Waverly make a proper announcement of their relationship to stop the speculations. After all, they had yet to provide a satisfactory answer. “The paparazzi followed around because of your attitude,” added Fredrick. “If you admit it to them, they’ll stop trying to dig in deeper. Everyone will feel at ease. “Coincidentally, tomorrow happens to be the trade fair between Burlington and Kansas. If you can announce your engagement then, the economy of both countries will benefit from this.” With narrowed eyes, Anthony eventually relented, “Okay.” Susan and Fredrick sighed in relief with that. What a delight! Anthony finally wanted to admit it to the public. What a grand improvement! Overjoyed, both Susan and Master D’Cruz left in satisfaction. The moment the door closed, Anthony stood up right away and walked to the equipment room to open the door. Charmine was still rooted where she stood, unable to react. Anthony and Waverly would anno

    Charmine felt like a mess. She did not expect so many things to happen within ten days. Ah, forget it! She had to cure Chris and Annabel as soon as possible! If Chris’ illness was treated, the three of them could live together in peace even when faced with sneers after she announced her relationship with Anthony. Once she got home, Charmine started going into medical books and their records. Although she had mastered the Ultimate Seventy-Two Needles, Chris’ and Annabel’s conditions were quite complicated. Each acupoint could treat different things, but putting them all together could give off thousands of combinations, and only one combination could cure them… Charmine immersed herself in work for one whole day. That evening, Senior Jordan suddenly called her. “Charmine, are you busy?” “No, Grandpa. How are you feeling in the past few days?” asked Charmine caringly. Thinking carefully, she had not returned to the Jordan mansion nor seen Senior Jordan for quite some time

    Charmine faced the mirror, and after encouraging herself, she went to her underground garage to get the car. Kay handed her the car key. “Take this car, Boss Jordan.” Charmine spared no long glances at the car as she ignited the engine and drove away. She had done enough mental preparation. So what if Anthony announced his upcoming engagement to Waverly? It was not true anyway; she was the person Anthony loved. She must not show any emotion… She had to remain as calm as water, no matter what… The best would be to find a corner to sit in and try her best to minimize her sense of existence… Never did she expect, much to her shock, that Anthony and Waverly would arrive the same time she arrived outside the exhibition hall! The two cars pulled over outside the exhibition hall. Anthony came in an extended Lincoln. The body of the vehicle was elongated, showing the status and prestige of its owner. An assistant went over and politely opened the door for them. Anthony

    “Charmine, may I know what brand this car is? Why haven’t we seen this before?”“Can you share with us the car’s manufacturer?”Half of the reporters who surrounded Anthony and Waverly flocked to Charmine instead as they shouldered against one another to conduct the interview.Charmine snapped out of her daze. She reminded herself that she was representing the Jordan Group that was the best in the property industry in Burlington.The Jordan family was still rebuilding itself, and she had to stand firm.As for Anthony and Waverly, Charmine had no choice but to pretend she did not know them both.She composed herself, getting rid of all the emotions she should not be having, and replied to the crowd, “It’s just a niche vehicle that we researched ourselves. I’m just driving for the fun of it.”She then walked toward the exhibition hall’s main entrance right after her comment. Born with an incredibly powerful disposition, every step Charmine took was accompanied with a mighty aura

    Charmine had the authority to make decisions in Burlington. After all, she was from the second largest family of Burlington and the number one real property company, especially the project of Divine Bird that attracted the attention of many parties.“Such a person will possess a much unique vision. Does she have any special idea toward this diplomatic marriage?”Everyone eyed Charmine anticipatingly. Charmine felt as though her heart was choked. ‘Is Max trying to rub salt to my wound with that question? Is he trying to force me to comment in the public, that Waverly and Anthony made a perfect match?’‘He really is cruel. But…’Expression tranquil and unperturbed, Charmine smirked. “I’m sorry, but I never like gossiping about other people’s love life to begin with.”It felt like a backhanded comment, calling out everyone for being busybodies.Max’s face stiffened momentarily at her comeback, but not a moment later, he said coldly, “The engagement between Mr. Bailey and Ms. D’Cru

    He wanted to see how Anthony denied Charmine in public!Then…Anthony parted his thin lips and said, “Indeed, I’m having fun with my wife. To beat is to care, and to scold is to love. That makes sense.”The crowd all exchanged looks at each other, finding it hard to believe.‘Anthony and Waverly will even argue with each other privately? Will they, considering their personality? Impossible!’As for Max and Waverly, their expressions looked awful.Anthony’s statement sounded like he was protecting Waverly, but in fact, he was supporting Charmine!He had never greeted Waverly as his wife. The ‘wife’ that he mentioned was obviously hinting at Charmine!‘Great one, Anthony. Nice one, Charmine!’It was as if Waverly did not wish for the situation to become more awkward as she said, “Anthony, let’s go over there to have a seat.”In public, she would always greet him as Anthony.Anthony eyed Charmine from the corner of his eyes. Max might never let Charmine breathe so long as he wa

    There was an unnoticeable glint in Sonia's eyes. She nestled herself further into Harry's arms as she added, "Let’s go to Pares.

He thought for a moment before he took out a laptop, turned it on, and plugged in the USB.A moment later, the screen showed what seemed to be peculiar surveillance footage with a descriptio

    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. He had been using her from the start, while he chose to stay with the woman who lied to him and even hurt him!No matter how mu

    "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

    "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. You were the only person who stayed by my side in the past five years, so I hope that you

    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.
