Chapter 1151 William paid very little attention to his appearance, yet Anthony called him out for his dark circles and said that he could not recognize him...
It was only then William realized he had been overly casual. Compared to Anthony, he was way out of his league.
He regretted it. If only he knew Charmine was coming, he would have freshened up. 1 All he could do was bite the bullet. "I've been too busy researching things- my apologies to have embarrassed myself. May I know why you two came?â "Iâm here to accompany my wife," replied Anthony as he gazed at Charmine lovingly.
Charmine, on the other hand, was unsettled.
Sure, Anthony spoiled her every other day, but he was never this explicit...
Anthony said to William, "Even though Mr. William is busy, you should find time to rest. Your friends might not mind it, but it'd be hard for you to find a woman." 1 He spoke in a mature tone as if genuinely concerned about William, but Charmine knew Anthony was making it hard for William.
Anthony did not like the idea of William constantly trying to help Charmine. He even wanted William to stop trying to help her!
In other words, Anthony wanted William to get some rest, care about his appearance, and spend less time on Charmine, i As a man himself, William understood what Anthony was saying. However, he did not call him out on it as he instead invited, 'Thank you for your advice. It's windy out here. Please, come on in."
He walked in front of them and led them in as he spoke, giving off a friendly and approachable temperament as he did.
Anthony glared at his back and his large hands clenched tightly. The sense of danger arose again.
Another rival!
If Anthony was a woman, he would fall for this type of gentleman as well.
Anthony could only clasp Charmineâs waist tighter and walked inside.
Pulled against him so tightly, Charmine could barely breathe.
She muttered softly, "No need for this... Can you loosen up? I can't breathe Anthony lowered his head and whispered to her ear, "What? You donât want him to see you and I in love?" 2 His breath was chilly but also hot to the ear.
Charmine's mouth zipped shut as she could only let him hold her close as they walked in.
Uncle Pop and the rest of the Uncles were in the laboratory, coming over to help when they learned about the situation from Uncle Sam.
The four of them were discussing the idea, but when they saw Charmine and Anthony walking in, their eyes popped out.
Were their eyes fooling them?
The usually independent Charmine was leaning into Anthony's arms like a weak and small woman.
Was this the same Charmine they recalled?
The flustered Charmine had no other choice but to smile awkwardly and pulled a bluff, "I had motion sickness..."
Everyone thought it made sense. So she looked like that because she had motion sickness?
"So you also have motion sickness when you're home?" spoke Anthony abruptly.
Charmine was flabbergasted.
He was exposing her!
He was claiming that she also leaned in his arms at home!
She was the Boss Jordan! How would they look at her in the future?
Seeing how awkward she was, William changed the subject. "Ms. Jordan came here today to learn about the progress of the blood cloning devices, yes? We happened to be having some disagreement." "Oh? What is it?â Charmine was quick to jump into the topic of work, much to Anthonyâs displeasure as his eyes dulled.
Was William being considerate to Charmine? He was so caring that he helped her to get out of the awkwardness?
Also, Charmine was that impatient to change the topic. Did she find it awkward for them to publicly display their affection?
She was chatting up with William so naturally as if they were husband and wife!
