Chapter 1023 Grandma Granger was never treated in such a way before. Even though Anthony was not a soldier, he exuded an even deadlier air than troopers.
Although she was terrified, she thought of Guyâs future and met Anthony's gaze fearlessly. "Mr. Bailey, by all means, go ahead.
Only I have the antidote, kill me if you will. Charmine will be in pain forever!"
Tightening his grip on her collar, Anthony lifted Grandma Granger off of the ground entirely. "You're threatening me!" i "If you think so. I'll stand by my choice!" Grandma Granger eyed him squarely.
Guy, who was by the side, quickly walked forward. "How could you do this, Grandma? Bring out the antidote now! Ms. Jordan is right; there's no point forcing these things. Furthermore, I merely admire her, but it's not love. Please, let them go!"
"I won't! Kill me if you want to!" Grandma Granger shut her eyes stubbornly. She looked as if nothing in the world could make her afraid!
Anthony felt his anger filling up his chest. He was just about to toss Grandma Granger in the air when a hand caught his wrist.
He lowered his gaze to see that it was Charmine, and though her migraine was easing up, her face was still pale.
She gently parted her lips. "Let go of her. Let's move. Dr. Weir and the other Uncles should have a solution to this."
Furthermore, she practiced the Ultimate Seventy-Two Needles. If she worked on it, the inflicted status should not be an issue.
There was no point holding it against an elderly woman.
Noticing how worn-out Charmine was, Anthony tossed Grandma Granger away to where Guy was at, and Guy quickly caught onto his grandmother.
Charmine had no interest in speaking to them any further. She held onto Anthony's hand and left.
'Thereâs no point for you to leave!â Grandma Granger called out behind them. "No one will have the antidote, no matter who you seek after! If you leave now, you'll have to go through the migraine three more times today, Charmine! You'll be in pain longer if you donât give in now. Are you certain of leaving?"
Her words sounded like a warning.
Charmine halted. She glanced at Anthony who was beside her.
After a moment, she did not even turn back as she scoffed, "Even if I have to live in pain every day, Iâll still choose this. There are things in the world that you can't gain by force!â 1 Her voice was arrogant and cold, and Grandma Granger jolted.
Charmine would still choose to be with Anthony, even if she had to live with the immense pain?
She was not afraid and called this 'things that can't be gained by force'? Was she that adamant of not wanting to be with Guy? i Seeing that she was about to leave, Guy quickly said, "Ms. Jordan, please, hold. I didn't know this would happen. I'm very sorry.
If you leave now, you'll suffer incredibly. I'll ask Grandma to let you have the antidote now, so please wait!"
With that said, he looked at Grandma Granger as he wore a grim expression that was not seen before. "Grandma, bring out the antidote right away! Now!"
"What's wrong with you? Iâm trying to help you! Iâm helping you!" Grandma Granger fretted as she comforted him, "Charmine won't be able to go through the pain every day. Even if she leaves now, she'll come back after a few more times.â
Her tone was determined.
Guy pushed her away angrily. "If you don't bring it out now, I'll go find it myself! Donât blame me if I flip through everything!"
