Chapter 89
Anthony stepped forward. “I just happened t o be passing by. I can help drop you off if you need since it’s along the way,” he said in a rich and jovial voice while holding the door open for her.
Charmine immediately frowned and mentioned, “If I remember correctly, you’re staying at The Palace Heart, am I right? I’m staying at the Violet Villa which is a few kilometers away from you. How exactly would my place be along the way?”
While hearing her question, Anthony teased, “You know where I’m staying. It seems like you are interested in me and did your research thoroughly.”
“Tsk! You’re overthinking it.” While rolling her eyes at him, Charmine continued, ” You’re Burlington’s Prince. Everyone knows you live in that land of gold. People talk about you no matter where you go.”
Anthony was dismayed. He would have to pay attention to his reputation so that she would not hear anything unsavory about him.
“I’ll be passing by. Plus, you made a promise with Momo this afternoon, right? Therefore, we’re still friends.” He then bowed slightly in a gentlemanly manner before ushering her into his car.
She was reluctant to accept the ride but was aware that she came here with Shane’s Ferrari. Shane was supposed to be on a date with Mingail now. Charmine was in a dilemma about what to do.
Eventually, she got into the passenger seat. Anthony was over the moon as things were going his way.
The desolate streets of the city rested in silence as the starry black sky wept over them. The car moved under the glow of the bright yellow street lamps.
On their way to Violet Villa, Anthony could not help but gaze at Charmine. As the silvery -white moonlight rested upon them, the necklace resting on her collarbones could be seen so clearly. Her beauty almost took his breath away. He thought she would have taken it off but to his surprise, she still had it on her neck.
He wanted to chat with her but noticed she had immediately dozed off. She must have been exhausted.
