Chapter 1032
Upon reaching upstairs, Anthony saw Charmine zoning out with Chris in her hands and he walked toward them.
"Momo, go draw in the art room.”
Chris knew they both had things to talk about, thus he instantly gave them space.
It was then Charmine realized Anthony had truly returned, though still in his torn-out clothes with his not-yet-cleaned wounds.
She stood up, ready to find the medical box, but Anthony merely held onto her and pulled her toward him.
Charmine fell onto his lap at the sudden loss of balance and Anthony's pull, and she could smell the smell of blood on him.
She frowned at the sight of his bloodstained knuckles with tears on them, and she asked, "What did you do?"
"Met up with Guy." Anthony did not intend to hide it.
Anthony frowned. Why would he look for Guy?
"Revenge," he added.
Charmine was speechless.
That was too much.
"What? Felt bad for him?” His low voice sounded displeased.
"Of course not," Charmine quickly explained, "I just feel...”
Guy was innocent, but of course, she could not say that to Anthony outright, thus she shifted their topic of conversation. "I'm curious how it went. Did you get the antidote?"
Anthony's face stiffened before he muttered lowly, 'The antidote is in Guy's body. We don't have much of a choice other than letting you marry him."
Charmine frowned.
With that, she suddenly lowered her head and kissed Anthony on his lips.
Anthony wanted to push her away, but Charmine dominated him in her kiss as she held him tightly, pressing him onto the sofa. She kissed him with fervor, with passion.
It was only after a long while that she released Anthony, though she glared at him heatedly. "Remember: I've decided to spend the rest of my life, living with you and the pain. Just treat it as a migraine. Don’t you dare overthink things." i
Charmine then stood up to look for the medical box, all while Anthony gazed at her with a softened gaze.
He never thought of letting her go; he was just testing her. He might have let her leave should she genuinely like Guy, but that seemed not to be the case...
He sat up quietly as he allowed Charmine to clean his wounds.
The scratches were caused by the machines in the Grangers’ underground labyrinth. She only had to put on medication and band-aids.
Charmine looked at how vulgar Anthony looked, and she smiled. "Go and wash up, or I’d think you're a beggar from the street."
