chapter 1450
Charmine slowly sobered up as the cold breeze blew.
She should not be so weak-minded!
Since when had she become so feeble?
If Anthony had fallen out of love, there was no point for her to cling to it.
It was just a breakup-a divorce. No one would die without another in this world.
This man would no longer haunt her by tomorrow, Charmine promised herself that.
As she walked under the night sky alone, she realized how hurt her heart was...
It hurt her that they broke up just like that.
She finally managed to walk out of the trauma from her last relationship, yet she plunged into it once more.
It was horrible.
It was so horrible that she wanted to look for Anthony and cling to this relationship no matter what...
She bit her pale lip.
Suddenly, two headlights lit up the road as a car pulled over by her side. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Charmine turned to look, wishing it was Anthony who came to pick her up, but when she saw the man through the window, she laughed mockingly.
Why would it be Anthony?
It was Eric, sitting in the car as he calmly looked at her. "Come on up."
Charmine opened the door to get inside. Instantly, the strong scent of alcohol filled the interior.
Eric frowned. Still, he said nothing and drove away.
When they got back to Violet Villa, Eric took a set of pajamas and threw them at Charmine. "You smell. Wash up!"
Charmine took the clothes and walked into the bathroom senselessly.
Eric frowned at the sight of her in such a state. Worried she might drown herself while bathing, he pulled her to the showerhead and turned on the cold water, instantly drenching Charmine.
That seemed to have sobered Charmine, though she glared at Eric, visibly irked. "What are you doing?"
Eric shrugged her off and instead snapped, "Look at you now. Where did Charmine go?"
He then cranked up the water all the more. "Sober up!"
Charmine stood under the showerhead. Despite shaking like a leaf, she did not turn on the heater and allowed the cold water to overwhelm her. 1
He was right.
She gave up herself for a man, and now she was troubled by love? That was not her at all!
Anthony was ruthlessly heartless. Why would she have to be half-dead for him?
She could not even recognize herself at this stage.
Charmine stood under the showerhead for a long while as she allowed the water to drench her.
Her mind became clearer. The shower had sobered her up.
Dressed in a white bathrobe, her wet hair laid on her shoulders. She was willful, charming.
Good as new.
Charmine was drying her hair when she spotted Eric sitting on the sofa. " Open me up for all shootings. Accept all gigs."
Love was no longer part of her world at that point-only work.
Eric looked at her calmly. "That's more like it."
He then signed her up for some gigs and said, 'You'll be shooting a superbike advertisement tomorrow."
Good. She could relax while she raced, too.
"Okay," accepted Charmine.
It was then Eric's calm composure cracked a little, revealing worry. "This job is good and all, but there's a model signed by Bailey Corporation. He'll be there, too."
Charmine stopped drying her hair. In the next instance, she said calmly, " Doesn't matter."
She merely wanted to make money.
She would not be able to avoid him forever, anyway.
