Chapter 1156 Only Charmine and Anthony were left in the glass room while the rest were outside. Some went to get drinks while some went to get food.
One only had to turn back to see the two of them inside the glass room.
Charmine was anxious-she did not like public displays of affection.
She reached out to push Anthony away. "Let go of me, I-" "Charmine darling," his low and seductive voice was heard as he cooed at her lovingly.
Charmine's heart instantly skipped half a beat.
This was his first time calling her name, and it felt earnest...
Anthony hugged her as his gaze was fixated on her.
"Whatever you need in the future, just tell me. If you don't like anyone, you don't have to do it yourself. In other words, let me do it for you. Just sit back and be my wife." His mature voice was very loving.
Charmine's eyelids fluttered.
Did Anthony have a fever? Why would he say such things?
The corner of her eyes saw William standing outside, and she instantly understood.
Anthony must be showing off, and he wanted to show her how good of a man he was! 1 He was using a new trick to try to make her like him more. He wanted to win against William!
"Actually, Anthony...you don't have to. You're already very nice to me, and I won't fall for others. I, Charmine Jordan, wonât fall for anyone else."
Anthony was stunned. She must have misunderstood him again!
Whatever, let her think of it then. As long as he treated her well.
He reached out to hug her as his large hand gently tucked her head against his chest.
"Rest, Charmine."
Charmine frowned as she felt the goosebumps again.
Could she move?
She dared not!
Anthony's jealousy flared just because she was researching with William, even with the Uncles around, and he would go out of his way to win her heart.
If she pushed him away now, he would probably say the same thing, "What?
You donât want him to see us being lovey-dovey?"
The awkward Charmine had no other choice but to lean into him, yet as she did, she heard Anthonyâs stable heartbeat and somehow calmed down.
She realized that she could smell Anthony's attractive masculine scene.
With her face against his chest, she could feel his muscular chest.
This position made her face turn red and her heart raced.
However, she had to maintain this posture and allowed his scent to overwhelm her.
Outside the glass door...
The Uncles were coming back with fruits and wanted to ask Charmine and Anthony to have some but saw them hugging instead.
The ice-cold laboratory was warmed with such a romantic sight.
Uncle Pop sighed. "William, if only you had half of Anthony*s shamelessness, you wouldâve ended up with Charmine a long time ago!"
William picked a seat that was not facing the glass door. He did not want to see what was happening there.
His lips curled up. "You can't force feelings. As long as Charmine is happy." "Sigh! If Anthony had your mentality, he wouldn't have ended up with Charmine!" blurted Uncle Sam.
Willaim frowned, not understanding what he meant.
Uncle Pop chimed in, "You don't know about it. Charmine treated Anthony just like how she treated you. In fact, she even hated him. She didn't like Anthony, but he used all kinds of ways to get her! If only you made some effort, you wouldâve won her!"
William frowned. If he truly did exert efforts, would he have won Charmine over?
Was that so?
Somehow, the words went right into his heart.
