Chapter 1778
Charmine and the women from the women's union committee sat around the table. "I'm busy and don't have time to accommodate you," said Charmine, "so you'll have to excuse me."
The leader of the committee met Charmine's cold, arrogant eyes and was instantly stunned by her aura. She could only nod and say politely, "It's alright, we won't bother you."
Anthony walked into the room, but before he said no to them, the person in charge looked at him and advised him in a friendly tone, "President Bailey, look, the child is innocent! Annabel is just a woman with no support, and you can't let her go through this alone, letting her birth the child alone. How helpless would she be? Furthermore, this isn't fair-"
Anthony's expression was relentless, unforgiving. "I won't marry Annabel.
This is none of your concern." i
The women visibly stiffened at Anthony's statement. They also knew that asking him to marry another woman right before his wedding would not be easy! 1
The person in charge said again, "President Bailey, if you insist, we can stop forcing you to marry Annabel. However, could you delay your wedding with Ms. Jordan? Why not host your wedding after everything is resolved, or at least until Annabel gives birth. After all, it'll be cruel for her to watch her child’s father gets married. She'd be depressed."
With that said, Charmine-who was focusing on writing the invitation-put down the pen in her hand and stared at the woman coldly. "Annabel volunteered, and we didn't force her. The news online is just a scandal, so you don't have to investigate it."
The person in charge looked visibly conflicted. She thought Anthony was difficult to deal with but did not expect Charmine to be even colder!
She met Charmine's harsh gaze and said, "Ms. Jordan, regardless of whether Ms. Annabel volunteered or not, the baby in her belly is still President Bailey's! As a woman yourself, you should be able to sympathize with this. Why don’t you think on her behalf? She’d take a step back for you -don't you feel guilty?"
Charmine's red lips curled up, "This was her choice, and she volunteered. Why would I feel bad? I might feel a certain way if she asked for Anthony to marry her, but otherwise, it’s none of my concern. You're all here, going against her will and sticking your noses into this. Please leave!" 1
