Chapter 422 Nonetheless, Chris’ actions did not anger Anthony; he merely smiled. Chris was less annoying than usual.
Outside the door, Chris looked at the anti-opening device and dusted his hands. Hehe! At long last, he could finally have his dinner after fighting back his hunger for so long! Daddy and Mommy could also spend some time together, and he might get a sister soon! With that, he ran downstairs happily and ate like he was fine-dining, behaving like an adult with etiquette.
Back inside the room…
Anthony laid next to Charmine after placing her on the bed. Her face had a slight blush, exuding a different kind of charm from her usual coldness.
He instinctively reached out to caress her cheek, but just as his hand was about to touch her skin, his hand paused for a moment before reaching out to toy with her hair strands instead. “Oh, Charmine… When will you celebrate for me?” She was always caught up with her past and her enemies, and he felt neglected. Unconsciously, Charmine turned over all of a sudden, and her arm wound around his waist. At that moment, their distance lessened.
Her alluring feminine scent laced with a faint scent of alcohol rushed into Anthony’s nostrils and aroused his senses.
Anthony’s eyes narrowed at that. “My little wild cat, do you know you’re playing with fire?” Charmine did not respond as she slept still, her arm still wrapped around Anthony’s waist. It was only then Anthony realized he was talking to a drunk person. Whatever.
Anthony wrapped his arm around her waist as his lips curled up in satisfaction at how Charmine nestled in his arms. In front of him, she was harmless. He could feel her opening her heart to him slowly.
However…
Anthony’s eyes turned dull and cloudy at the thought of what happened to him five years ago. Would Charmine leave him after knowing about it? Would she think that he was a douche? He could tell that she hated rapists. Hopefully, he could keep this from her for a little longer, at least after they signed a marriage certificate. Charmine would be his after that. Charmine was sleeping peacefully that she forgot about someone… She forgot about Robert.
Robert had attended Tiffany’s wedding, genuinely happy for her, until he saw the clip on the big screen. To him, the gentle and pure impression of his sister had been completely ruined. He got drunk and did not even go home. Coincidentally, Uji Quin sent his men to bring Robert to Kansas, and Robert boarded the plane without hesitation.
At the Jordan mansion, after Tiffany had woken up, she walked to the window to pick up her phone. She sent Uji Quin a text: [Do me a favor, and I’ll agree to whatever you ask for.]
In Kansas…
Uji Quin smirked at the text. So, Tiffany had reached that stage already? So what if she had slept with Julian and Oliver? That did not change how beautiful Tiffany was, beguiling still! The once high-above, pure and innocent-looking woman, was begging him to help? He replied: [Are you sure? You’ll agree to sleep with me?] Tiffany: [Yes. I’ll come to meet you in Kansas after this.) Uji Quin: [Okay, deal.] Tiffany received what Uji Quin sent her very quickly. When Joey and Adam were not in the living room, she dragged her weak body out of bed and walked into the deep end of the mansion. There, Senior Jordan lived in a separate two-story house. After what happened, he asked his maids to take on leave while he sat in the living room to clear his mind. At that moment, his door was gently pushed open. He looked back furiously to see Tiffany walking in. “What’re you doing? Get out!” he scoffed with a cold and demanding voice.
Tiffany was the last person he wanted to see at that moment.
