Chapter 724
McKenzie, of all people, was the one who so badly wanted the Baileys to know about Anthony's relationship with Charmine initially. However, after learning about the background of Charmine's great-grandfather, she did not dare let the Baileys know about it after all.
After all, they were the best at creating ceramic housewares in the country, the only ceramics family that continued to prosper even after a few hundred years. They produced the most refined ceramics, specially made for royals and the wealthiest families.
Grandma Bailey was a big fan of the Hahn family's ceramics. In fact, she was queuing to buy one this year yet had not gotten the number. 1
If Old Senior Bailey found out about Charmine's background-
old Senior Bailey and the rest were extremely shocked.
Anthony had a girlfriend, and the girlfriend was Charmine?
Who was Charmine? Where did this nobody come from?
Old Senior Bailey scoffed, "Give her information to me.”
He wanted to see who the woman Anthony finally had his eyes on; he wanted to see how she looked like. After all, this was the first woman he found after not willing to see anybody for so long.
Derek had prepared documents to show Old Senior Bailey.
Grandma Bailey, Susan, and Darryl went closer and eyed the documents warily.
They saw a photo of Charmine on the document, and it happened to be her self-portrait in a red dress.
The dress had a V-neckline that showed her extremely alluring body and cold face.
To the modern ladies, this was the cool-goddess look. To the Baileys, especially the seniors, this was a head-scratching woman!
Merely by looking at the photo, she gave a bad first impression.
The documents went on to describe, [Treated like an adopted daughter from a young age. High school graduate, low educational background, been in a relationship with Julian Cabell for over ten years. She almost got engaged for a few times, but due to some mysterious reasons, she was sent to Africa for five years. She owns a diamond mine, RisingHawk...]
The Baileys did not bother reading the rest of the information.
To them, her assets were as little as a penny!
Their faces went green.
Anthony got someone like Charmine as his girlfriend!
The usually clean and clear Anthony was finally in a relationship, but it turned out to be Charmine!
A woman who had been with another man for over ten years, a mere highschool graduate, and a woman of a small family!
"Is he trying to kill me? Ask him to come back, now, right now!"
Old Senior Bailey slammed his walking stick against the floor as a heavy thud was heard. He was very frustrated.
Susan's gentle face soured uglily. As a woman, she could tell that Charmine was not a nice woman: She was nowhere as formal, gentle, and pure as McKenzie. 1
They had to make Anthony come home. They had to make him break up with Anthony.
However, Derek said, "Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle, Auntie, you know Anthony's temper. The more you try to stop him, the more he’d fight back, just like what happened with Momo..."
The Baileys all voted for Anthony to send the child away back then, but he insisted to keep him by his side.
Due to that, he broke his relationship with the Baileys and moved out. He so very rarely visited the family ever since.
Derek suggested, "I don't think arguing with Anthony is a wise choice, as it'll tear US apart. The most important thing is to keep US happy as a family. Perhaps we should speak to Charmine first. We could ask her to leave him perhaps?"
His words made it seem as if he was thinking for the family's sake, but the truth was...
He only had a few photos and no other evidence.
If the Baileys went ahead to see Charmine first, things could progress from there.
Knowing Charmine's temper, the Baileys would surely not like her. Once Charmine angered the seniors enough and Anthony chose to side with her instead, everything would be in Derek's favor. 1
Grandma Bailey did not know about his intention, only thinking Derek's suggestion was very reasonable.
She looked at Susan. "Susan, what do you think?"
Susan had experience in this. She was able to handle it because she used money to send Annabel away ten years ago.
