Chapter 1549
Anthony's expression was cold as he forcefully lifted Charmine to the sofa. He took up the medical box and was about to clean her wound.
Charmine's head was filled with images of him with Waverly. Seeing how close they were, she was like an agitated kitten, with every strand of its fur standing on the edge as she growled, "Go away! I don’t want you to touch me!" This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
She kicked the medical box in front of her.
Thunk!
The medical box fell onto the floor heavily, just like her anger. The box’s contents spilled all over the floor.
Anthony pursed his lips. He gazed at her, though nowhere did it look hostile, as he picked up the medical box and said, "You're someone that my son genuinely cares about. He's worried if you're hurt, and I don't want him to be."
Charmine jolted, and her eyes grew dull.
He came over just because Chris cared about her?
If Chris did not care about her, would he even be here at all?
Charmine's face turned pale. Biting back the pain that gnawed on her ankles, she kicked Anthony. "Get lost! I don't want to see you! I'm not in a good mood, and I won't let you stay just because you're Memo’s father! Go away!"
She lifted her leg and started kicking him.
Anthony's figure tensed and allowed Charmine to kick him. However, looking at the wound in her leg, he carried her back to the sofa.
Charmine hit his back angrily. "Go away! Don't touch me! Let go of me!"
However, no matter how hard she hit him, Anthony endured it all as he gently bandaged her knees. He even put a layer of ointment on them.
Charmine could clearly feel the warmth in his hands. Between each move, she could feel that he still cared for her.
She halted and felt confused.
This felt as if...
They had not broken up.
It felt as if they were still happily in love.
However, Anthony was worried that Charmine did not like this, so he got it done quickly and finished dressing her wound in no time.
After bandaging, he stood up. "I'll leave now. Take care, Ms. Jordan."
Charmine snapped out of her thoughts.
Heh. Why the rush? Was he in a hurry to continue planning for his wedding?
Good lord! What was she even thinking?
He had already slept with Waverly. There was no hope left between them! 1
Withstanding the pain around her ankles, she stood up and pushed him out forcefully. "Get out of my sight! Don't show yourself in front of me ever again, you disgusting douchebag!"
Disgusting douchebag?
He never expected her to call him with that name.
Anthony saw the chill in her eyes, and his heart ached.
Did she...truly have no more feelings for him, so much so that she did not allow him to clean her wound properly?
Did she only want Maurice?
His entire being felt burdened, lethargic. He was worried and did not want to leave, but he did not want to trigger her any further.
He could only let her push him out.
When he was outside the door, he frowned tightly and looked at her, saying with concern, "Keep your wound away from water-"
"Get lost! Don't act in front of me!"
Standing at her doorway, Charmine ruthlessly removed the bandage he put on her and tossed it away. "I find this dirty that you touched it!"
Slam!
She shut the door with a resounding slam.
Anthony stood before the door and looked at the bandage she tossed out, his eyes crestfallen, dulled, cold.
She was disgusted by him bandaging her knees?
It felt as if it was his heart that was tossed onto the floor.
Even though she was with Maurice, did she have to treat him this way?
Just because Maurice might get jealous?
Had she forgotten what she had said when he got jealous, back when they were still together? She said that she did not like narrow-hearted men!
She must have loved Maurice that badly, did she? 2
They had so many hurdles along the way, yet their stable relationship was completely destroyed within half a month.
Anthony clenched his fists and felt pain even when he breathed. He was in so much pain that he had no energy to walk.
He pressed his forehead, and the vision below his palm turned red...
