Chapter 1611
He was Chris' father!
Even if he was a stranger to Charmine already, he should be able to dine with them, yet she...
Anthony looked at Charmine, about to say something when footsteps were heard, and an elderly voice called out, "Chloe, come home for dinner."
With that said, the village chief walked over.
When she saw Anthony, she smiled sweetly. "It seems that you’ve found Charmine, young man?”
Anthony nodded.
"Good."
When the village chief walked in, Chloe said, "Grandma, I'm having dinner here with Auntie Charmine."
Charmine stood up and added, "Grandma, why don't you join us?"
The village chief shook her head. "It's okay, I've made dinner already."
As she spoke, she noticed that there were only three bowls on the table. Moreover, the young man was standing awkwardly.
Something did not seem right. Still, the village chief did not want to meddle with their privacy, thus she said, "Chloe, stay here and be a good girl." "Okay.” Chloe was munching happily as she nodded.
"Chloe’s been good, Grandma," assured Charmine gently. "Don’t worry."
The village chief waved it off. "Alright, enjoy your meal. I'll leave you to it." "Okay.” things to do with Charmine.
Furthermore, Chris looked quite like him.
They must have been related.
Had there been a conflict between Charmine and this man? Even if that was the case, he must not be starved.
The village chief returned to her house before making her way back toward Charmine's.
As he watched them eat, Anthony grew exasperated and went out for a smoke.
The village chief walked over and offered, "Young man, are you hungry? If you don’t mind, come over to my place for dinner."
Anthony wanted to turn her down, but with another thought, he nodded. " Okay."
Charmine was close to this elderly lady. Perhaps she knew a thing or two about what happened to Charmine.
He followed the village chief to her house, where she gave him a bowl and asked, "Why did you come here, young man?"
Anthony greeted, "I'm Anthony Bailey, Grandma. Call me Anthony."
He thought of a while and said, "I heard that the view here is amazing, so I came here for a vacation."
The village chief was confused to hear Anthony's reply.
Was he not here for Charmine?Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Even if he was not related to Charmine, he must be related to Chris.
However, it was apparent that this man did not want to speak further, thus she did not insist.
The village chief said, "That’s good! We're about to develop our village, and this place will be a tourist attraction in the future. If you like it here, you may bring more people to come here with you."
When Anthony heard this, he had a thought and he said, "That’s nice. Is there a tour guide around here? The village is so big, and I don’t know the places too well."
The village chief replied, "We don’t have a tour guide, but if you need a tour, I can ask Zoe to show you around." 1
Anthony did not bother asking who she was, and he turned her down, saying, "I need someone with better knowledge."
The village chief was put in a difficult position. "Most of us here aren't well- educated. Only Zoe is the most qualified one amongst us."
Anthony pursed his lips and could not help recalling Charmine's beautiful face. He said, "Someone who looks clean and good."
The village chief frowned. "Zoe does look good, and she’s not too bad, too. However, she had been staying in this village, and she’s not as well- educated as women from the city."
As she spoke, she suddenly realized.
Knowledgeable, good, and clean-looking...
Was he not referring to Charmine?
Sigh! How silly was she?
Anthony must be using this as an excuse to get back with Charmine!
