Chapter 921
"If Anthony is safe, it should be fine. I don't mind taking this slap to my face. If anything happened to him, your D'Cruz family would have to be responsible for it as well!"
Waverly’s face stiffened. Susan lashed out on her instead?
Why was she to blame? She only provided Susan with a plan, and they were the ones after the D'Cruz family’s benefits. They did it voluntarily!
She was the D'Cruz family's wealthy heiress. It was already past twelve at night, it was her birthday. Everyone should be cherishing her like the star she was to be, yet the accusations were turned to her instead?
"Enough, enough," dismissed Senior Bailey. "Let's wait a little longer.
Anthony isn't a weak man-he'll be fine. Let’s discuss after finding him."
His hoarse and old voice sounded tired.
Waverly’s eyelids jumped. Discuss after finding him?
Was he implying they would talk more about whether they would let her be with Anthony after they found him?
Anthony was a grown man who disappeared for only a day, yet they were so anxious and blamed her for it?
How repulsive!
With that, everyone waited. No one dared to sleep until he came home, and no one was willing to get some shut-eye.
After all, Anthony was the Bailey family's future patriarch. If anything was to happen to him, the entire Bailey would be affected as well as the entire country. 2
The wait lasted throughout the night.
Meanwhile, Charmine and Anthony slept soundly.
They both held one another despite the low temperature, and it was a loving sight.
Eventually, Charmine was awakened by the sound of footsteps.
She has always had exceptional hearing. Since it was very quiet, she could hear movements within a few hundred meters.
The footsteps were coming from far away, and it sounded much like footsteps of a man.
Charmine woke up in shock. A man?
