Chapter 602
'The matter between Anthony and I has nothing to do with you!"
With that, she rolled up the window as if she was blocking Julian from the outside.
That did not deter Julia, however, as he yelled out, "You better think it through, Charmine. I'm the only one who’s willing to marry you officially!" 1
"Go!” ordered Charmine to Adam.
Stepping on the gas pedal, Adam drove the car away speedily, leaving Julian with a face full of dust and smoke.
Julian glared at the leaving car, his eyes darkened with determination.
He took out his phone and sent McKenzie a message. [Countdown: Six more days.]
McKenzie was attending an international seminar when she saw her phone screen lit up, and her eyes dulled at the text.
Six more days...
In six days, Charmine and Anthony would get married...
She intentionally arranged for Annabel to get hurt the other day, thinking that it would encourage Annabel and Anthony's relationship to bloom, but it failed unexpectedly.
Her other arrangement did not seem to be going well either.
If this went on, she might run out of time.
With a heavy look in her eyes, she texted that familiar number again... [Be harsh!]
Meanwhile, in the car...
Adam heard the conversation between Charmine and Julian, and he knew something must have happened between Charmine and Anthony.
He wanted to ask, but he sensed that Charmine was not in a good mood, so he did not ask and drive away silently.
Charmine was resting as if she did not care, but her ears rang with Julian's words.
"Oh, you think I'm struggling, huh? Isn’t your relationship with Anthony struggling as well? You think things will get better if you drag this one out? You think Anthony would leave Chris' actual mother for you, someone he only met for three months?" 1
"Annabel is Memo's mother, and you two had a history together! The two of you should be together!” 2
"You two are a real family! Chris needs a mother, and Annabel needs you!" 1
Those words rang incessantly in her ears.
Frowning, Charmine’s eyes darkened as she went into deep thought.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes and said to Adam, "Stop here, I want to walk around."
Adam pulled over as she requested, though he asked caringly, "Charmine, is something the matter? Do tell me-we're a family. I'll help you find a solution."
'Thanks, but no need," declined Charmine as she opened the door and walked out from the car into the company.
