Chapter 1117 It was apparent that Guy truly cared for Charmine. That was not good.
As Charmine walked down from upstairs, Anthony came toward her and walked her to the dining table.
"Don't think too much now. Have some food."
He personally brought her breakfast as he spoke.
The breakfast plate included some prawns. He even put on gloves to peel the prawns for her.
He was an elegant and high-profiled man, yet his eyes were filled with only love at that moment.
Guy noticed that. He felt rather emotional, but he was pleased nonetheless.
He was assured at how Anthony treated Charmine so well. 1 Charmine, however, had no appetite due to her concern over the Jordan Group.
The situation could only worsen the longer it lasted. The situation was already a challenge for her, and she did not know how to resolve it.
Sensing something was amiss, Guy asked, "What is it? Did something happen?" "Nothing." Charmine refused to tell.
Guy would surely go up against the Grangers if he found out what happened, and that would even ignite the situation to go completely out of hand.
Anthony, peeling the prawns, accidentally tore the prawn into two as if tearing someone apart.
Charmine cared for another man's feelings right in front of him? She did not want Guy to have conflicts with his family that badly?
2 Anthony must hold it. Hold it!
Yvonne could tell that Anthony was jealous again, so she quickly moved her chair closer to Guy and asked, "Ah, yes, how long does it take to master dart-throwing? Based on my potential, how long will it take for me to hit the target everytime?"
Although Guy did not want to speak to her, he still had to answer her. She successfully diverted his attention.
The meal ended with a strange atmosphere.
After the meal, Charmine wanted to get to the company to sort things out, but because she had yet to suffer the migraine, she could only wait at home.
When Anthony went upstairs and saw how busy she worked in front of the computer desk, he felt hurt.
His phone rang at that moment.
Noticing that it was Luke calling him, he went to the other balcony on the second floor to answer.
Luke anxiously apologized, "Boss, we failed... The Association said that Guy is a rare and gifted general, and the navy canât afford to lose him. Even if our economy can't take the lead in this upcoming trade, they had to save Guy's life. The Association wants us to reconsider and let Guy leave, or else Luke did not finish the sentence.
Anthony's eyes darkened.
He had threatened the Association with such an important matter, yet they were siding with the Grangers?
Did they truly have no way of helping the Jordan Group?
"Don't drag the Bailey family down with me, Anthony," a clear voice called out to him from behind.
Anthony turned around to see that Charmine had somehow walked behind him.
Frowning, he quickly hung up to reassure her. 1 "Don't think too much. I'll think of another way." "No need. The Association is right. The navy can't lose Guy. Perhaps nobody would agree for someone so important to the country like him to give me his blood. Now that the Jordan Group is in a tight spot, they might attack the Bailey family altogether if you get involved," spoke Charmine, concerned.
Anthony frowned. If he did not help her, would he have to watch the Jordan Group getting shut down?
Would he have to let go of Guy and watch as Charmine suffered in pain? Perhaps...he had to let Charmine be with Guy?
