Chapter 334: Chapter 337

Chapter 337 Uncle Larry let out a sigh. “How’re you so clueless on this while you’re so smart on other things? Do you really think the child came from a surrogate mother? If he came from a surrogate mother, why would his parents hate the child so much?”

Charmine’s heart raced at that. Was Momo not from a surrogate mother?

Did Anthony keep something from her?

Based on Uncle Larry’s comment, why did Momo’s birth seem to harbor mysteries?

“That surrogate mother excuse was just a way for the Baileys to cover this up,” said Uncle Max. “Five years ago, a mysterious force arranged for Anthony to sleep with a woman. In the same winter, Momo was sent to the hospital where Nial was admitted.

It all seemed too much of a coincidence, but so what if the baby was sent to the Baileys? The child’s mother could be anyone, and a family like the Baileys wouldn’t accept her.

“Anthony’s parents thought that Momo’s mother was some random woman. She could’ve been a prostitute, or perhaps a woman who wants to marry into the family. It’s because of that that they hated this child and wouldn’t let him become part of the family.”

Everything clicked for Charmine once she listened to the elderly men. It made sense why Anthony would stutter or hesitate whenever they talked about Chris’ mother, like he hid something from her. No wonder the Baileys hated Momo so much that they would not accept him.

Was that the genuine reason why, then?

“A powerful man like Anthony was set up to sleep with another woman?”

“I know, right? This is why William is better than him! William is still a good boy, and he’s been waiting for you!” gushed Uncle Max.

Uncle Zul nodded to agree. and turned into the matchmaker he was. “Right, right! It’s so hard to find a clean man like William these days! You won’t find it even if you look with a torch on! Charmine, you have to choose wisely!”

“What’s there to choose? It’s William, for sure! Anthony’s family is too complicated, and there’s a mysterious force involved! Not good enough!” asserted Uncle Pop as he slammed his palm against the table.

Among the men, Uncle Larry remained silent as he gazed at Charmine. He believed that a wise girl like Charmine would know who to choose.

However...

Charmine’s lips curled up into a beautiful smile. “Exactly! William is too much of a good man, and I’ll only end up harming him. A person like me should be left with other men like Anthony.”

The smile on Charmine’s lips grew wider as she mentioned his name-Anthony’s. There was relief deep in her eyes.

The four elderly men practically gaped at her. Did they hear her wrongly? Did she pick Anthony?

“Charmine, are you ill?” Uncle Larry could not help but reach out to feel her forehead.

Based on her ruthless persona in the game, how would Charmine accept her man that had slept with another woman before?

Also, they knew Charmine well enough to know that she was a carefree person by heart; she had been downright idle all these years. She wanted to live a carefree life after taking revenge, but choosing Anthony would spell never-ending dilemma for her! 1 TO “I’m not ill! My thinking is clear!” argued Charmine. “I was hesitant before because I didn’t want to harm Anthony, but now I know he had been set up and had slept with another woman while I was made to sleep with another man. We’re a perfect match for one another, isn’t it?”

The four elderly men reeled in shock.

“Charmine! What kind of thinking is this?!” “How could you call this a perfect match? This is like a blind cat accidentally catching a dead mouse!”

“If you choose Anthony, you’ll be caught up with his family issues! Will you have time for all that mess?”

“And what about the mysterious force? Anthony had been searching for that for five years of with no result. Nobody knows what their purpose is to have done it, and you might get hurt!”
