Chapter 428 Charmine’s heart galloped rapidly as Anthony‘s kiss left her powerless. That damned voice of his was no help either; so bewitching that Charmine became weak before him. Unexpectedly, she said, “Okay, since it‘s not my first time anyway, I‘m not losing anything.” She wanted to give it a try–life should be enjoyable after all. All of a sudden, Anthony‘s emotional eyes turned sober and rational. He pushed Charmine away and eyed her sternly. “Never say that again, Charmine.” Charmine was befuddled.
She was confused. What did she say? Anthony held her chin and forced her to meet his gaze. He said in a low voice, “Remember: It wasn‘t your fault five years ago, and your body and soul are still pure and clean. You‘ll always be the most amazing woman I know, so don‘t ever look down on yourself. I crossed the line today, but I‘ll show you enough respect, and I hope you can respect yourself more.” With that, Anthony pushed Charmine further away and stood up. He stood by the bed and fixed his shirt. His gesture was elegant, handsome, and manly. A wave of warmth surged within Charmine‘s heart. They had both reached the next step, yet he said he would respect? He wanted to respect her...
Any man would want to bed someone who had been deflowered like her. They would even call her pretentious if she rejected them.
Yet, Anthony...
She shot up from the bed and hugged him from behind. “Anthony, giving myself to you isn‘t an act of self–disrespect. Are you sure you don‘t want it?” Anthony‘s back stiffened as her soft skin could be felt from his back, messing up his rational thoughts. Still, he repressed his desire and firmly insisted, “Of course I want it, Charmine, but not when you‘re drunk, certainly not after, and definitely not when you‘re feeling confused. I hope it can be on the day we get married.” ; His voice was serious, rigorous, and formal. Charmine felt like her heart was blown by the wind, fluttering in the air of springtime. Anthony truly wanted to wait until the day they would be wed? So he was serious about their relationship and not just playing with her? He had his heart set on marrying her genuinely from the start! Anthony continued, “If you really want to give it to me, let‘s set a date, and I‘ll start planning.” Charmine snapped out of her mini trance and pushed him away playfully. “You want to change my surname so badly? Not a chance! I won‘t simply marry a man who can‘t even slice ginger!” Without a doubt, he must have failed at slicing the ginger at the end, trashed the dish, and
ordered for delivery. Anthony‘s eyes darkened. “So you‘re not thinking of making up for it?” Cough, cough! Charmine choked on her thoughts. Did he have to be so explicit about that? “I‘m going out,” said Charmine as she evaded the topic, “the air is getting stuffy.” However, when she walked to the door and turned the knob, she realized the door was locked. She tried pulling it hard with no luck. Charmine frowned. “What happened here?” “Your son‘s doing,” came Anthony’s simple reply. Her son? Chris? It then clicked for Charmine; Chris was behind this! “What do we do now? How do we get out?”
