chapter 1496
Charmine could not help looking at Anthony, but he looked merely unfazed.
Her heart grew cold. Looking at how Chris suffered, she finally caved in and nodded. "Okay."
Gradually, Chris' seizure ebbed away, and he used his small hand to wipe off the foam at his lips. He hugged Charmine tightly, though his body would jolt from time to time.
Charmine patted his shoulder and said, "Mommy will promise you that I won't have these rumors again, my dear."
Chris nodded his head vehemently, and he stretched out his pinky finger to hers, wanting to swear on her promise. "You promised, Mommy...!" he said feebly and hoarsely as he gazed at her expectantly.
Having no other choice, Charmine pinky-promised him. "Okay."
Noticing that his seizure was easing off, she put Chris down and said, " Okay, go home with your Daddy now. I need to go back to work."
Chris did not get off of her when she said that. He hugged her even tighter instead.
"Mommy, can you send me home?"
Charmine wanted to reject him, not wanting to have so many interactions with Anthony. Also, she only had half an hour break.
However, as she was met with Chris' hopeful self, she feared he might suffer from another seizure if she turned him down.
Charmine pursed her lips and nodded. "Okay."
Chris’ grimace slowly eased off.
Charmine hoisted her into his arms and turned to look at Anthony, saying in a matter-of-factly tone, "I'll send him home.” "Whatever," responded Anthony.
Chris was speechless.
His father was helpless!
Chris clung onto Charmine's back, his watery and big eyes no longer brimming with pain, i
Instead, they gleamed with delight.
Anthony looked at him and narrowed his eyes...
His acting skill was so good, he almost got him to believe in his act!
Charmine carried Chris and went into Anthony's car.
Anthony maintained a blank face. He would check up on the two of them at the back from time to time but would say nothing else.
Charmine did not mind at all. She had grown used to his cold-blooded treatment, and it was in her mind that if it were not for Chris, he would not even speak to her at all.
Hmph!
In contrast to how calm the two adults were, Chris was panicking. He established this opportunity with so much effort, and he would not waste it so easily! Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
When they got home, Charmine went into the Bailey mansion with Chris in her arms when...
She saw a familiar figure.
It was Waverly.
She was dressed in an elegant beige loose knitted dress and wore heeled boots, standing at the front yard, instructing the staff to move things around.
She looked like the mistress of this mansion.
Charmine was surprised.
So, Waverly had already moved in?
Meanwhile, Anthony squinted at Waverly.
Who gave her permission to move in?
Waverly saw them entering, and she looked at Charmine gloatingly. She then fixed her eyes on Anthony, as if answering to the suspicion he had. "I came here to decorate our new room. I moved in to prepare for our wedding."
Anthony's eyes dulled as his entire being emanated apathy.
He wanted to turn her down, to ask her to leave, but he was the one who agreed to this wedding.
Since Charmine was around, he had to prove to her that he married Waverly out of love.
With that, he said nothing.
To Charmine, his silence meant that he agreed to it.
Charmine's hands around Chris tightened. The entire situation seemed ironic to her.
She thus put Chris down and said, "Mommy will leave now. Get some rest."
