chapter 1443
Seeing how Charmine's pain only worsened, the men could only compromise. "Okay, okay, we won't step in! Hurry and get treated!"
Only then did Charmine stretch out her arm and allowed Guy to prick the needle into her arm. Her migraine slowly eased off afterward.
Her already pale face was even paler at that moment. There was no life in her cheeks.
"Let her get some rest," reminded William sorrowfully.
Bringing everything up to her would only make her feel worse.
All of them knew this as well, so they gradually left.
Charmine blanked out for the rest of the day after they left her. She did not eat anything and instead recalled the times she had with Anthony.
She could not believe how a man who once loved her so much would leave her out of the blue...
William saw how she had lost so much weight, and it hurt him.
However, no matter what he said, the food he came in with would be taken out by the nurse in the end.
The next morning, William came in with breakfast, saying, "Ms. Jordan, please get some food. You shouldn’t be torturing your body this way."
Charmine looked at him blankly and merely shook her head. "I’m not hungry. Thanks."
William wanted to say something else, but Charmine insisted, "Mr.
Peterson, I want to be alone."
The helpless William sighed and walked out with the food.
When he shut the door, he took out the phone to call Anthony. "Ms. Jordan is still not eating," he began.
He had been taking care of Charmine for the past two days. He would do as Anthony said and reported back to him on how Charmine was doing.
Anthony held on to the phone tightly as hurt welled in his eyes. Inhaling deeply, he said, "Okay."
William asked, "Mr. Bailey, why don't you come over to the hospital to visit her?"
Anthony inhaled the cigarette and narrowed his eyes.
Of course, he wanted to...but everything he did would go to waste if he showed up. 1
Anthony extinguished the flame and said, "No need. Just comfort her some more."
The hopeless William sighed. "She won’t listen to what I say!" "Then, let her be," responded Anthony.
Even though he wanted to go over, he had to hold himself back.
It was not easy to have come to this point. He must not ruin things at this stage.
Inside the ward.
Charmine spent a few minutes on her own when, all of a sudden, the phone rang.
There was a faint glint of hope in her dull eyes as she hastily got up and walked toward the phone.
Was it Anthony calling her?
Was he going to explain to her? That he had some reasons he was hiding when breaking up with her, or perhaps he was forced to do so?
Alas...
Charmine picked up the phone to realize it was an unknown number.
Her eyes dulled in disappointment, but she accepted it nonetheless.
"May I speak to Ms. Jordan?" A polite woman's voice was heard. ‘This is TY Hotel calling. Would you like to look at the venue you have booked?
We've finished decorating it for your wedding tomorrow. May I confirm the total number of guests? Are there any changes? We can accommodate some changes."
Charmine's heart skipped a beat. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Hotel...wedding...
She narrowed her eyes and said, "Give me some time. I'll reply to you tonight." "Okay."
Charmine hung up and held onto the phone tightly, the hurt storming within her.
She was supposed to have her wedding with Anthony tomorrow, but...
She thought of how decisive Anthony was and felt a sharp pang at her chest. 1
They have had so many near-death experiences, and they went through so much. How could he stop loving so abruptly?
No.
She should try again-one last time.
She would forever regret it if she did not try once more.
