Chapter 1803
"Bro! I know I shouldn't be disturbing you at this hour, but I do have something important.” "Speak!”
Nial continued, "You asked me to test Annabel, Momo, and Charmine's hair. I did the test again and found out..."
Anthony's heart grew heavy when he heard this. When Anthony heard it, his heart sank. His breathing became heavy.
"Momo's DNA is a close match to Charmine’s. In fact, it;'s not related to Annabel's! Momo is Charmine’s child!" exclaimed Nial, audibly excited. 2
Anthony's head buzzed loudly.
It was just as he speculated.
Chris was his and Charmine's son!
That meant...
It was him who slept with Charmine five years ago, not Alexander. They had already met five years ago and were intimate! 1
Anthony finally had an answer to that sense of familiarity he had when he was with Charmine.
He felt more exhilarated than ever. His hand that held his phone even trembled.
This matter was more valuable than deals worth tens of billions! 1
No, not just that. Nothing in the world would fulfill him more than this matter. Nothing could make him any more happier or satisfied.
"Bro? Are you too excited that you can't speak? I did contribute a lot to this. I gave you this wonderful news on your wedding night! Bro...? Hello? Hello-"
The line suddenly beeped just as Nial spoke. He removed the phone from his ear and watched the cut- off call speechlessly.
As expected, he was just a robot to his brother.
Meanwhile...
The excited Anthony, who had hung up the call, went back straight into the room. He could not wait to relay the good news they had received.
However, just as he entered the room, he saw Charmine and thought of something. His once giddily racing heart slowed down and felt weighed.
He thought of how Charmine treated Alexander. 2
His heart rose to his throat. He looked at Charmine darkly and walked over.
Charmine looked up at him. "Who called?" "Nial." "What happened?" Charmine looked at him. 2
Why did Anthony seem more solemn after the phone call?
Anthony shook his head. "Nothing, don’t mind Nial." 1
He reached out and pulled Charmine into his arms. He thought for a moment before he asked her, unable to refrain himself from the question, " My darling, did the incident back then traumatize you?"
Charmine recalled that...unpleasant memory, and her eyes darkened.
"What's this sudden questioning for?" "Nothing, I just simply...find something to talk about," lied Anthony.
Charmine thought he had noticed how she was resistant tonight. She then confessed, a tinge of anger laced in her words, "To be honest with you, that incident had shattered me. I lost everything and was thrown out of Burlington. I abhor what happened, and the man involved in it."
Anthony’s heart sank.
He looked at her and asked, "My darling, what if it wasn't Alexander that night?"
Charmine's eyes gleamed coldly. "No matter who it was, it doesn't change how much I hated that man!"
With that said, she looked at him and said, "I don't want to talk about this anymore." All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
It was not easy for her to have self-hypnotized herself to let go of this and start off fresh with Anthony.
If the conversation continued down this route, she might not be able to... tonight...
Anthony saw how steely her gaze had become. He wanted to ask further but did not have the guts to.
D*mn it! Why did he not investigate this earlier?
Why did he not come to her earlier, keep her company, and look after her, mending her broken soul?
Charmine met Anthony's burden-filled gaze and thought it through. She reached out to hook her hands around his neck and said, "Let's not talk about this. We can continue where we left off."
