Chapter 32 With the bodyguardsâ escort, Charmine got on a limousine partied by the side.
Once she got in, however, she saw Anthony sitting in the backseat What was more terrifying was that Nial was the driver again. Would the horrific experience repeat?
Her first instinct was to push the door open and get down the car, but she could not leave due to the crazy fans and paparazzi outside. In her hesitation, Nial hastily stepped on the gas pedal. The car moved at such a speed that Charmine had no time to even lament.
It was then when Charmineâs eyes squinted as a thought occurred to her.
She leaned toward Anthony.
When Anthony saw her leaning closer, his eyes darkened with excitement as he gulped. It felt so fast; Charmine was already right next to him and she reached her hand toward his waist.
Chrisâsitting in the front rowâ
instantly covered his eyes while Nial f l icked down the rear mirror as he did not want to be distracted.
Charmineâs hand was groping Anthonyâs waist as if searching for something. As he felt her soft hands, he suggested with a smirk, âMiss Jordan, if you insist, I think my abs and chest would feel better.â
Charmine rolled her eyes. âTouch you, m y foot?â She pulled out the seatbelt from behind him and helped him fasten it. â
Who wants to touch you? I just want to keep you up from falling against me. I donât have that many dresses for you to destroy.â Charmine then fastened her seatbelt as tight as she could and sat upright, straight like a plank So she was feeling for his seatbelt! Nial flicked back the rear mirror with a hopeless face while Chris uncovered his eyes with disappointment âSigh... Is Mommyâs heart made of steel? I f this goes on, howâ re they supposed to improve on their relationship?â The boyâs doe eyes flickered as he thought of ways t o help his dad.
At the back, both Anthony and Charmine were sitting still and apart as though separated by a wide river. Chris panicked.
How could there be no interaction between Mommy and Daddy? He could not stand the thought of sending Mommy home just that; an opportunity so good would be wasted. Noting that the limousine was about to leave the city, his eyes flickered.
He started moaning in pain with his hands on his belly.
Nial pulled over by the side and asked worriedly, âMown, what happened?â
âStomach...stomach pain...â Chris groaned as though in pain. âI think itâs because I havenât had breakfast.â
Nial frowned. âThis is bad! This is a sign o f gastric. You must eat!â
âOh... RâReally?â Chris asked in shock and guiltily turned to look at Charmine who sat at the back âMommy, can you bring we to eat?â Chris began to whimper âWaa... My stomach hurts...â
âYou donât look well. Let your dad and uncle bring you to eat something quick Iâll take a taxi home,â said Charmine as she unfastened her seatbelt.
âNo!â Chris yelled before he realized it was too loud, out of character for a âsick boyâ. He lowered his voice and continued i n a breathless voice, âWaa... Mommy... I donât want to eat with Daddy and Uncle Nial. They always order spicy food! The tastes are awful! Iâm just a kid and I wanna eat something light, but they wouldnât let me!
âThey said I must eat spicy food to grow faster,â Chris mumbled as he cried with his head down, with tears rolling down her cheeks. âIâd always agree with them and eat whatever they tell we to because I donât have a Mommy, and nobody loves m e. I have to be a good boy, be a good Moron ... But now...â Chris amped up his whimpers. âMy stomach hurts! Iâll die if I eat spicy food again... Waaa... I donât wand die.. ! Waaa...!â
Understandably, both Anthony and Nial were downright stupefied.
Since when did they start eating spicy chili? They could not even recall such a thing.
Nonetheless, this worked on Charmine, and her heart was completely softened by his cry. She hastily opened her door and walked over to carry him in her arms. â
