Chapter 1154 Putting aside that they hurt his Charmine, he even admitted to his face that they preferred William?
Uncle Zul had seen many things, but a livid Anthony sent chills down his spine.
Recollecting himself, Uncle Zul continued, "We watched William as he grew, and we understood his personality and thinking. He genuinely loves Charmine and treats her well. If you want us to approve you, you must become more outstanding than William! If you ever hurt Charmine for the slightest bit, we wonât let you off easy!â i His body straightened as he spoke, looking proud and confident.
However, Anthony seemed as if he did not hear this. His eyes were cold as he glared at Uncle Zul coldly. "Since you've owed her so much already, none of you have the right to stop her from liking who she likes! If you truly care about someone, you don't force her to do what you say. You'd support her decision instead!â 1 Anthonyâs voice was stern and disciplined as if he was lecturing a child.
Anthony stood up and buttoned his suit. "Excuse me.â
With that said, he walked over and put on a white lab coat.
Uncle Zul was stunned as Anthonyâs words rang in his ears.
"If you truly care about someone, you don't force her to do what you say.
You'd support her..." "Support her..."
By then, Anthony had buttoned up his lab coat before he pushed the glass door open and entered.
When those in the lab heard the door and turned to look, they were all shocked.
One had to admit that he had a good outlook.
Even though he was a President, he instantly looked like a professional academician after putting the lab coat on.
Since he was very tall, one had to look at him with awe and respect.
The Uncles jolted the moment he came in.
Even Charmine was perplexed.
She had not seen Anthony wearing a lab coat for a long time. The last time she saw it was when he was researching the antidote for Annabel.
This man did look good.
Her gaze narrowed as she asked, "Why did you come?â 1 Anthony had not been involved in this field. He mostly worked on trades, so he should not know much about laboratory work.
"I came to wipe off your sweat for you," he responded as he walked toward her, seemingly ignoring everyone else, and took out his handkerchief to wipe the sweat off of her forehead.
His movement was gentle like water. His eyes were filled with pity and love.
He always thought Charmine was a powerful woman until moments ago, when he learned that she was strong due to all the pain she had gone through.
He did not want her to overwork even if it was for one second.
Charmine frowned. Why did Anthony seem somewhat strange all of a sudden?
The people around them were definitely not used to this. They were working, yet Anthony came right in to publicly display his affection!
After tucking Charmineâs hair behind her ears, Anthony pulled over a stool and said to her, "Sit on this. Take care of your body."
Charmine was discombobulated.
Sit on this, he said? Was she that weak?
Anthony did not give her a chance to decline as he turned to everyone else. "Apologies, but my wife was tortured inhumanly before, and her body is weak. She can't stand for long, so be mindful of that." 1 His mature voice sounded hurt as he implied other things, and he surely did not forget to glance at the Uncles as he spoke.
They instantly felt guilty.
Inhumane torture...
Was he referring to them?
William was the first to react.
