Chapter 276
Anthony halted in his step. “Ms. McKenzie is indeed impressive, but I don’t like women who stick themselves to me, chasing after me, giving one the impression of a loyal dog.”
With that said, he freed his wrist from her grip and strode away. He also used his handkerchief to wipe his wrist before he tossed the cloth into a bin. It was arrogant, apathetic, without a trace of gentleness.
McKenzie was left with a greenish pale face. Did Anthony just call her a loyal dog? She put down her ego before his to chase him, yet he compared her to a loyal dog? Would there even b e a spark of romance between them had she not initiated the chase? 1
Anthony was obviously making it hard for her, insulting her! It did not matter if his parents supported her nor if she came to their home three hours per day… Anthony would still ignore her!
Inside the attic…
Charmine was just as puzzled. Did she just see how Anthony behaved rather coldly toward another woman? His comeback to reject McKenzie sounded oddly familiar, too, like the time she rejected him before…
Once she composed herself, the dejected McKenzie walked into the lift. Once she was gone, Chris opened the door of the attic and half-whispered, “Daddy, Daddy…! Come here! Mommy was touched by your attitude and she wants to marry you for that!”
Charmine was riddled with question marks.
Since when did she say that?
Too late. Anthony turned to look at her, and she did not even have the time to recompose herself. The expression on her face seemed rather touched…
Anthony started making his way to her, one step at a time. Chris ran away and disappeared without a trace, like a puff of smoke. 1
Charmine was stunned.
