chapter 1413
Charmine was still deeply asleep. Feeling unwell and not wanting to wake her up, Anthony gently left the bed.
Before he left, he left a slip on the desk that read, [I'll sort out some matters in the company. Contact me if anything happens.] Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
It sounded so nonchalant as if he had forgotten what he promised Charmine last night...
It was almost ten when Chamine woke up, frowning when she noticed Anthony was not in the room. She wanted him to have a proper rest, yet he still got up so early?
She then realized Anthony was not even in the villa after washing up, though he had left a slip on the table.
Charmine frowned.
Had Anthony gone to his company again? Did he not promise her he would come to the studio with her? Why did he sound as if he had forgotten?
As she was about to call him, Senior Jordan phoned her.
Senior Jordan spoke the moment she picked up the call, "Charmine, didn't we agree to meet at ten in the morning? It's almost ten. Why are you two not here yet?"
Not wanting her grandfather to worry, Charmine found an excuse and said," We're having breakfast. We’ll be coming over right away." "Okay, call me when you arrive. Take your time," said Senior Jordan.
"Okay."
Charmine hung up and phoned Anthony right after, and he answered the call, his voice magnetic and soothing as he spoke, "What is it, my dear?"
Charmine frowned. He asked her that? He sounded as if he genuinely forgot about it!
"Anthony, did you forget what you promised me last night?" she asked.
Anthony fell silent, his long brows furrowed.
He promised her something last night? What was it?
He thought carefully and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head.
After a long while of thinking, he finally recalled that he had forgotten to go to the studio with Charmine.
"I didn't forget," he quickly responded, "but the company suddenly has some urgent matters, so I came over to sort it out first. Is he at the studio already? I'll rush over now."
Charmine frowned. He woke up early to sort out company-related matters, just so he could make some time for her?
No longer skeptical of him, she turned his offer down. "No need. Go ahead and deal with the matters at hand."
Anthony would have to work double at night if he came, and she did not want to tire him out.
Anthony wanted to say more, but knowing her, he had to relent. "Okay. Call me if anything happens." "Okay."
Charmine hung up and went to BR Studio on her own.
It was a high-end professional makeup-makeover studio. The makeup artist had a high reputation and needed to be booked three months in advance.
With some 'special connections', Charmine managed to get a slot.
Senior Jordan had been waiting at the VIP lounge for a long time. When he saw Charmine coming on her own, he could not help frowning. "Charmine, you're alone?” "Some urgent matters popped up in the company, so Anthony has to go there," explained Charmine.
Senior Jordan's expression turned grim instantly.
"What's more important than his wedding? Why are you the one working for everything? Does he even care at all?" "You got it all wrong, Grandpa." Charmine held onto his arm and reassured him, ‘You know how arrogant I can get; I arranged for a month of vacation after our wedding. I don't want him working during that time, so that’s why he needs to sort things out now to make time for me."
Senior Jordan scoffed. "Does the company not function without him? I just feel that he doesn't care enough about you! He didn’t officiate the relationship, and now he has this attitude. Charmine, why don't you reconsider this marriage? A marriage lasts forever, and you were hurt by Julian in the past. I don't want you to meet another man of this kind." When Charmine heard this, she felt hurt.
