Chapter 1245 Charmine would question Frank when she failed to grasp something, and if she still could not understand, he would teach her personally. The morning went by quickly, and Nial and Yvonne made lunch for them.
Nial brought the dishes to the table and called out, 'Time for lunch."
Frank said to Charmine, 'You mustâve been tired from a morning of practice. Get some rest after lunch. Don't worry, you improved a lot." "Okay." Charmine smiled at him. 'Thank you, Frank." 'You're welcome," said Frank as he crossed his hands and walked out of the pavilion, gentle as always.
Still at her spot, Charmine's gaze drifted to the tree.
Anthony was still with Faye!
Squinting, she cleaned up the table, washed her hands, and walked toward them.
"Anthony, time for lunch." "You eat."
Still writing, Anthony was so focused that he did not even look up at her.
Charmine pursed her lips. 'Your stomach isn't well. Don't starve yourself." "Don't worry, I'm not hungry."
Charmine wanted to speak more when Faye interrupted, "Charmine, Anthony said he's not hungry. Don't disturb him, alright?"
Charmine was speechless.
Her eyes cooled off as she looked at Faye. "You don't have to tell me if he's hungry or not!"
Faye's face turned pale, and she looked at Anthony. "Anthony..."
Anthony did not even spare a glance her way. 'You two go on, I want to practice."
Enraged, Charmine turned and walked away.
Faye saw her back and smiled with satisfaction.
She did not move and remained seated beside Anthony. "Brother Anthony, I'm not hungry. I can continue to teach you.â
Anthony took a step to his right to keep a distance from her, no longer as gentle. "No need!"
Faye bit her lip and left.
Everyone sat before the table.
Nial asked, "Where's my brother?"
Charmine was going to reply, but Faye beat her to it. "Brother Anthony is practicing calligraphy." "So hardworking,â said Nial.
Charmine looked at Faye coldly.
Was she that interested in Anthony, or was she faking it to agitate her?
Since Frank agreed to teach her calligraphy, was Faye jealous?
Frank put down his bowl. "I'll go and have a look." "Frank," sighed Charmine, "he's stubborn.â "Don't worry, I have things to tell him."
Charmine did not insist.
Faye looked at Charmine and said mockingly, "Sigh! Anthony is so pitiable."
He did everything for Charmine, yet Charmine did not even seem to care.
Nial placed a piece of meat in her bowl. "You're hungry, Faye. Eat more."
Baffled, Faye scoffed.
Why was everyone siding with Charmine?
She was arrogant and cold. What was so good about her!?
It was as if Frank could see everything as he walked toward Anthony.
When Anthony saw him coming, he did not seem to care and continued to practice.
Frank stood before the table and looked in his direction gently. "Why are you not eating?" "I'm not hungry." Anthony did not even look up, continuing to write.
Frank's ears moved; he precisely heard the anger in his brush strokes. Anthony was angry, apparently.
