Chapter 633
Was that not Chris?
Nial rushed out quickly but saw no one.
The top floor lab was empty without a sound, so quiet that even a pin dropping could be heard.
Nial frowned suspiciously. Not a single person was in sight? Was he hallucinating?
Was he overwhelmed with work that he started to hallucinate?
Nial walked back into the lab.
What he did not notice was that the moment he left, a black shadow flickered into the lab, silently and unknowingly, and changed the reagent on the table... 2
Inside the other operating room, Annabel had disinfected her entire body and laid on the operation bed quietly.
She was covered in a white blanket, pure and sacred like an untainted white lotus.
Doctors paced around as they prepared themselves as Charmine walked in and signaled to all of the doctors.
The doctors left gradually.
Upon the sight of Charmine, Annabel wanted to get up hastily but realized that she was wearing nothing, thus she only looked up at her.
"M...MS. Jordan, is something up?"
"I came for you. Yes, something is up." Charmine walked toward her, her face calm as she covered Annabel with the blanket.
Annabel was terrified as though she was a small rabbit meeting a big bad wolf. She meekly spoke, "Ms. Jordan, please tell me if there's anything I can. I'd help out if I can."
Charmine looked at her and comforted, "Don't be scared; I came here to make sure you've made up your mind. There's nobody around here, so you can tell me with all honesty: Do you really not want to be with Anthony? Do you not want to marry him officially and instead, want to stay hidden forever?"
Her voice was clear and well-pronounced.
Annabel's lips trembled. Just as she was about to reply, Charmine cut her short, "Ms. Annabel, I hope you think it through before answering me. To be honest with you, Anthony and I are still in the early stages, and I can't do anything in comparison to how you could bear two of his children. You have the right to marry him. If you want to marry him, I'll leave. I'll understand you and won't blame you. If you’re concerned about McKenzie harming you, tell me so, and I’ll protect you for Momo's sake. I'll protect you to become the trouble-free Mrs. Bailey. But..."
Her originally calm and relaxed tone instantly turned sharper at that instance, if you agree now, that you’ll merely be a surrogate mother, I hope you'll keep your word and the agreed conditions. You won’t be able to regret it in the future! If you ever regret or destroy my relationship with Anthony in any way, I'll treat you as if you're a third-wheeler. You should know by now that I, Charmine Jordan, hate lying, calculative, and fake women.” 1
Charmine looked Annabel in the eyes with every word she uttered, her eyes burning into hers.
Charmine's voice was very clear and serious.
Annabel had chills all over under her gaze. She had heard a lot of things about Charmine, and she also knew that Tiffany’s whereabouts were left unknown as of late. It was as if her body could not be found.
She lowered her head and answered, "Ms. Jordan, all I said was true. I really...really want nothing more than to be a simple surrogate mother. I don’t have other thoughts... 1
"No matter it was in the past, present, or the future, I won't do anything to harm your relationship..."
