Chapter 730
Anthony personally drove Waverly back home and even opened the car door for her thoughtfully. Those who secretly tailed them saw it all.
When they parted, Anthony even found an angle to pretend as if he was kissing her forehead.
Getting back into his car to return to Bailey Corporation, he wiped his hands repeatedly with wet tissues.
After all, he did place his hand on Waverly's shoulder, and it bothered him greatly even though a thick cloth covered her shoulder.
Anthony would always feel sick to his stomach every time he touched a woman... Strangely, he would not feel the same when touching Charmine. 1
As for that night from five years ago, he did not...
He still felt ill whenever he had any contact with Annabel.
Was it due to the drugs five years ago that made him able to accept Annabel’s body? 1
It seemed that the only person in the world he could touch was Charmine.
Recomposing his thoughts, Anthony then removed the gauze and steel plate around his arm-he knew he would have to get cozy with Waverly to throw Susan off Charmine's scent. 1
To not instinctively swing Waverly's arm away when she looped her arm around his, he wore the gauze and steel plate around his arm. 1
Luke, at the front seat, questioned Anthony's behavior. Was there such a need...?
President Bailey went to such extremes to protect his wife and keep himself clean.
After he had removed the steel, he instructed, "Call home, and ask them to keep it down."
"Yes, Sir," Luke replied.
On the same day, Anthony went back to his office without letting Susan and her staff spot anything amiss.
Luke called Susan and informed, "Mrs. Bailey, now that President Bailey is still in the early stages with Ms. D’Cruz, kindly don't make a big deal out of it. After all, there's still Young Master Momo. President Bailey wants to wait for their relationship to become more stable before going official. Furthermore, Ms. D’Cruz likes to keep a low profile..."
Susan understood what he meant; it was a crucial matter. If they made a scene before everything was settled, the Baileys would be seen in a bad light should Anthony's relationship with Waverly fail.
Furthermore, she genuinely liked Waverly from the first sight, and since Waverly preferred to keep a low profile, Susan would respect that.
The D'Cruz's status in Kansas could be said as an equivalent to the Baileys'.
Having relations with the D'Cruz family would only strengthen the Bailey family, what more should their families be united by law.
Susan had to think of ways to help stabilize their relationship.
At the Jordan Group.
Charmine did not expect the matter to be fixed so quickly, but it sure helped her calm down.
At least she did not have to meet the Baileys, that she did not have to be accused and scowled at. Charmine got to keep her sanity for the time being.
Not long after, she received a text from Anthony that read,
[I had to take five glimpses at Waverly, spoke three sentences to her, and touched her twice. My lady may punish me if it dissatisfies you.]
Charmine failed to fight back the smile that took her face.
Anthony actually took note of these things, as if he was completing a mission?
That made sense; him pretending to be with Waverly was a mission in a way.
