Chapter 42
There Charmine was, still asleep on the bed in
burgundy pajamas. Her skin was so fair and her
facial features were utterly captivating; she was like a
fairy in her deep sleep. Above all, some of her buttons
popped open, and her elegant neck and inviting
breasts were revealed.
Anthony gulped in reflex and turned away to stop
looking, but he accidentally stumbled against the
door when he turned.
Thump, thump!
Eyes still closed, Charmine threw a shark pillow from
the bed in his direction.
“Shut up!”
Tsk! Still bossy even as she was asleep. Nonetheless,
her unwillingness to get out of bed made her seem
more humane.
Anthony could not stop his lips curling upward in
adoration. “If you don’t wake u p, I’ll come in.”
Charmine did not hear him as she merely flipped to
her side and continued sleeping. When she heard
footsteps approaching her, however, she instantly
opened her eyes and saw Anthony’s muscular figure
standing by her bed. Worse still, he was looming over
her!
“What’re you trying to do, you pervert?!” Charmine
yelled, and Chris was awakened from his slumber.
When he opened his eyes and saw what was
happening, he instantly closed his eyes and
pretended to be asleep still.
Anthony was, in fact, bending over to carry Momo,
but Charmine misunderstood the situation. Knowing
she misunderstood the situation, he placed both
hands beside Charmine and leaned toward her.
“What do you think I’m trying to do?”
“You’ve got the worms up in your brain this early in
the morning! A chairman like yourself turned out to
be a stinky bear! You pervert! I’ll teach you how to be
a good man!”
Charmine raised her leg and aimed at the gap
between his thighs, ready to kick with all her strength
without mercy.
Frowning, Anthony lifted his leg and locked
Charmine’s knees. He glared at her with his lips
slightly parted. ” Charmine, are you sure you don’t
want to start planning for your happiness?”
“Reconsider your head! Get off me now; m y punch
has no eyes!” Charmine cracked her knuckles and
stretched her arms. The sound of knuckles cracking
seemed to convey a certain doom.
Anthony never expected her to be so fierce. He never
saw it coming when he felt a sharp punch against his
arm. The arm that held him up above the bed lost its
balance, and it sent him falling forward to the bed. 2
His masculine figure fell on top of Charmine’s body,
and their lips instantaneously met.
At that moment, the two bodies froze.
Charmine felt a strong current that shot through her NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
body, and her brain halted all activities for a good few
seconds. In the past few years, she had never fallen
for any men, despite their figure or background.
Everything changed once she met Anthony. Her heart
would beat irregularly fast on more occasions than
one.
Anthony was the first to snap out of it as h e held up
his body and asked, “If I say I didn’t intend it, would
you believe me?”
“Believe? Believe, my *ss!” Charmine pushed him
away and wiped her lips with a tissue like a triggered
cub.
Once he saw her worsening expression, Anthony
quickly took Chris into his arms. “I’ll visit you another
time,” he spoke. “D o take good care of yourself. Don’t
go out.” With that said, he adjusted Chris in his arms
and walked out of the room.
`What a shameless pervert! I won’t let him in next
time!’ Charmine hissed internally. i
Meanwhile, Anthony stopped right outside the door
as though a thought occurred to him.
