Warning: My Mommy is A Savage novel Chapter 589

Chapter 589

Charmine had tried to reduce her contact with Anthony for the past three days, hoping to make less of an impression in his life, allowing him and Annabel more space.

Still, she would accept Anthony's request for video-calls in those few days.

At that moment, in her office, Charmine stayed silent for a while and denied the call.

[Charmine: I'm busy, and I've got some things to sort out. Settle what you need to do first.]

Although Anthony did text her and report back to her right away, this situation showed that Anthony was not too against Annabel.

She needed the two of them to have enough space alone to make sure there was no room for development, that there was no chance of them getting back together before she could let this go. 1

She did not want to feel like she was a homewrecker, a third-wheeler between the two.

Anthony saw her reply, and her eyes darkened gradually.

Charmine was acting strange, and her text showed it.

He clicked on the call button a few times more, and as expected, they were all rejected.

Charmine hardened her heart and replied, [I'm having a meeting now.]

With that, she instantly left Messenger and even logged out from the app.

Although she felt uneasy, she even felt that she was making too much of a fuss. After what Julian did to her, she could not withstand anymore heartache.

She was getting married to Anthony in seven days, thus she had to be 100 percent sure Anthony had room for no one else but her.

As for work, she could give her all. As for love, she could not afford to lose. Short-term pain was much better than long-term pain, after all.

With that in mind, Charmine shut down her phone to prepare for the press conference.

Anthony was about to phone her, but all he heard was, "Sorry, the number you're calling is unavailable."

His brows furrowed. What was up with Charmine?

Nial walked out from the room at that moment and said, "The back of her head and thigh were scratched by the step, so I put on ten stitches on each. These wounds should never get wet, and she needs someone to take care of her."

"You'll take care of her," came Anthony's simple reply before he walked away.

Nial chased after him. "Bro, you're kidding, right? I take care of her? I’ve got so much to do! Also-’’

Annabel was his half-sister-in-law. Why should he provide for his sister-in- law instead of Anthony?

"You're a doctor," deadpanned Anthony, "it’s your duty to take care of a patient.”

Other than Nial, Anthony did not want many people to know that he was living with Annabel.

The situation was quite difficult, and if the Bailey family got involved, then...

Understanding Anthony's concern, Nial took his arm as he said, ‘Where are you going? Didn't you promise Charmine to do this for ten days? It's only the third day right now.”

"Fix things. Take care of Chris," concluded Anthony and left the house right away.

'Fix things'-these two words implied a much deeper meaning.
