chapter 1420
Jonathan washed his hands, but just as he wanted to strike up a conversation with Anthony, he saw him leaving. "Anthony, is this how you treat a brother?" he blurted. "My team is now boycotting me, and I won't be able to play games today. Can you chat with me?" "I'll treat you to a meal when I have time," came Anthony's simple reply as he got into his car, much to Jonathan’s chagrin.
He had heard this phrase over a thousand times from Anthony, but it never came true since they were young! 2
At Violet Residence...
Charmine was working in front of her computer. When she saw Anthony coming in, she chimed, "Just in time, Anthony! I just recalled that we haven't told your grandmother about our wedding. Why don't you make a trip home today to tell her and try to get your family's approval?" "Okay," Anthony agreed, "I won’t let you down this time."
He then typed in Charmine's reminder into his watch when Charmine was not looking before going back to the company.
When it was almost noon, he was about to go home but felt like he had forgotten something. He glanced at his wrist and realized that he had things to do.
He massaged his temples, angry at himself.
It had only been a few hours, and something slipped out of him again.
Luckily, he had this watch.
Anthony instantly drove back to the Bailey mansion and was met with a pleased Grandma Bailey. Despite seeming pale, she was all smiles as she saw him coming in.
"Anthony, what brings you home today?” "Charmine and I are having our wedding in six days. The venue is at Bora Island." "Wait, come again?" Grandma Bailey was shocked. "You're about to have your wedding?" "Yes," Anthony said simply.
"Wonderful. Oh, how wonderful!" Grandma Bailey was over the moon. "You can finally bring Charmine home officially!"
Susan, meanwhile, frowned as she sat by the side, disgust evident in her eyes. "Anthony, are you sure about this? I don't agree with this marriage, frankly speaking." 1
Grandma Bailey’s smile instantly became stiff, and she turned to glare at her. 'They already got their marriage certificate. If you don't agree to it now, are you even his mother? Can't you see how happy your son is?"
Susan had a look of embarrassment on her face. Although she was used to Grandma Bailey berating her, she still felt uncomfortable when she did it in front of her son.
She narrowed her eyes and said, "Mother, what I meant was that Anthony's publicly known fiancee is still Waverly. They hadn't called off their engagement. If he marries Charmine right away, what would the D’Cruz family think?"
Grandma Bailey scoffed. ‘They can think whatever they want to! I only approve of Charmine as my granddaughter-in-law! I won't have an evil woman like Waverly as a Bailey!"
Waverly nearly cost Anthony his life at one point, and she would never forget that!
Susan still had more to say, but Anthony raised his eyes to look at Susan." I’ll only marry Charmine in this lifetime, and only Charmine can become Mrs. Bailey. On our wedding day, I'll declare to the world that Charmine is my wife and is the legitimate Mrs. Bailey."
Grandma Bailey nodded with satisfaction. "My good grandson, I support you! I'll bring all my friends and relatives to witness your wedding!"
Anthony nodded. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Susan gritted her teeth, nowhere pleased with this at all.
"Anthony, please try to calm down first. Even if you don't like Waverly, you may consider McKenzie or others. Charmine had been with Julian for so long, and she must’ve lost her chast-"
"Shut up!" Anthony cut her off coldly and shot her a fierce glare.
