Chapter 1257 Faye understood what Charmine was mouthing. 'Idiot.'
Her face turned pale as she enviously glared at Charmine with Anthony with clenched fists.
Charmine did this on purpose! She wanted to show off their affection to her!
Cursed that Charmine! She would pay dearly for that!
Faye bit her lip tightly as she kicked the stone with force.
The shower room opened at that moment as Frank came out after putting clothes on. When he heard the movement, he asked, "Faye, did Anthony misunderstand?" "No, he didn't!" Faye answered. She wished he did, but no!
She could only say, "Don't work yourself up, Frank, they've gone back already. Get some rest early." "Alright." Frank let out a breath of relief.
Judging by Anthony's voice, he did not seem that angry. Furthermore, since he had said to Anthony that he had no feelings for Charmine, Anthony would believe him.
Recalling what happened, however, his clear eyes looked in the direction of Faye. "Faye, why was my robe not there?" "Huh?"
Faye thought about it. "Sorry, I picked it up by accident."
Faye did not suspect her. "Okay, be careful next time." 1 "Alright, I got it." "Go and prepare dinner." "Okay."
Faye and Frank left.
Anthony carried Charmine in his arms, and he seemed concerned. When he placed her in bed, he turned over to get the medical equipment.
Charmine sat in bed and watched him as he did the work.
He walked over with the medical box and asked, "Are you severely hurt?
Can you show me where?"
She extended her two skinny, scratch-free fair hands.
Anthony halted with a frown, only reacting a while later as his eyes dulled." You lied to me?" "Anthony, can't you tell that Faye put on the act for you to see?" refuted Charmine coldly. "Why did Frank's clothes go missing? Why did she ask you to come?"
Anthony squinted and fell silent for a few seconds before he said, "Itâs all a coincidence. She grew up in the mountains. She's innocent and doesnât think that way.â 1 Charmine's expression changed as she looked at him with disbelief. "So you'd rather trust her instead of me? Are you fooled by her-" "Are you jealous?" Anthony cut her short before she could finish.
"She told me out of kindness; thereâs no ill intention there. Also, Frank had forgotten his clothes, and you couldâve waited for us to come back." "Hah!" Charmine scoffed coldly.
Would he rather believe someone he had met for two days instead of his wife yet dared think she should not have helped Frank?
Was he aware that Faye would not have asked him to see if she did not go in?!
Watching her getting angry, Anthony's fists clenched by his sides. He was trying to calm down his urge to reassure her.
He maintained a calm disposition. "Since you're not hurt, get some rest. I'll tell you when the dinner is ready." "No thanks!"
Charmine was boiling with rage.
Charmine turned away from him. She thought Anthony would comfort her, but...
