Chapter 1334 Dior received no replies after that last text.
She tried to stay up, as sleepy as she was, to wait for his reply, but it was already late at night, and no replies were in sight.
Dior felt helpless, and she could not even leave the house. All she could do was to wait for him to get discharged the following day to speak to him...
Meanwhile...
Charmine and Anthony returned to Violet Residence.
Nial went to the hospital to take care of Frank, and with Yvonne and Guy not around, the villa felt emptier than usual.
Charmine was not used to it.
Still, when she recalled Yvonne clad in the wedding gown and Guy looking happy, she admired them.
When would she be wedded to Anthony in the public eye?
Anthony, who stood next to her, noticed her dimming gaze and asked, " What's wrong? Is something on your mind?"
Charmine looked up at him and fell silent for a while before abruptly saying, "Anthony, let's get official. Once Frank recovers, weâll get married. We'll let the entire world know about us. I'll be your wife, and you'll be my husband."
Anthony squinted. "Are you not afraid of public backlash?"
Charmine shook her head. "Iâm not."
All she wanted was to be seen with Anthony in public. They could face every adversity together, too.
Anthony saw the determination in her eyes, and the weight in him grew heavier. 1 He did not mind going public; he could protect her. However, if his operation failed and they still decide to be public, what would happen to her?
Charmine noticed his hesitation, and she frowned. "Don't you want to?" "Itâs not that." "Then what are you thinking?" "I'm thinking of when to go public."
Charmine then broke into a smile as she assured him, "I don't mind that.
Once Frank recovers, weâll pick a date to get married."
With hesitant-filled eyes, Anthony took her hand into his and nodded.
"Alright."
Charmine's red lips curled into a smile as she laid in bed and began planning for her wedding.
When Frank recovered, it would be the start of Spring, and it was the best season for a wedding.
The sight of a determined Charmine haunted Anthony immensely, more so than usual.
He dared not imagine what would happen if he got injured. How would she take it? Did he have to hand her to another man, then?
The thought of it made him feel as though cotton clogged his chest.
Anthony went to the study room when Charmine fell asleep.
For the sake of not disappointing Charmine and to give her a better future, he must not get ill!
With a narrowed gaze, he turned on his laptop and posted on the black market.
[Looking for intellectuals around the world. Will be rewarded with a huge sum!]
Seven reputable medical professors as candidates had identified themselves as it reached 3am.
Anthony put them together and instructed them, "Be ready at all times. If something happens to me during the operation, be ready to save me."
Charmine gambled her life on him. He would not let her lose.
The next morning.
Faye had been staying at Violet Residence after her discharge from the hospital, but Frank had also instructed her to help clean up the house. She must not eat and stay for free.
She was helping to dust the house when she accidentally came across the wedding invitation card Charmine had designed. She frowned.
Was Charmine secretly planning her wedding? How could that be?
How could Anthony marry a woman like her? He would not be happy for the rest of his life! He needed someone cheerful like herself to be happy! i Still, Anthony did not even talk to her. What else could she have done? How could she stop them?
Plagued with worry, Faye went out for a walk. Anthony never spoke to her since Charmine had exposed her during the wedding reception, and she had no inkling of what she could do to stop them!
Was the only option left was to watch them marry, after all that? Would she have to return to the bamboo forest forever with her brother once he recovered?
Would her brother match her up with a nice man when she was at the right age? 1 It all seemed simple and ordinary, and that would be the end of her story, but it was not the life she wanted!
Faye looked up at the building before her, and her eyes were filled with determination.
