Chapter 396 âOkay.â
It was time for Anthony to drop by in the company. After all, he had been spending his time with Charmine in Violet Villa for over half a month, only conducting meetings remotely.
With that, Luke dropped Charmine and Chris back at Violet Villa before driving Anthony to the company.
As Charmine walked with Chris into the villa, she saw Robert and Tiffany sitting on the sofa. Tiffany spoke to Robert in a gentle and soothing voice while Robert nodded diligently at her.
With a frown on her face, Charmine spoke to Chris, âMomo, why donât you go upstairs first?â
âI want to stay with you, Mommy! Iâm a big man now, and I can protect you,â insisted Chris as he stood in front of Charmine, glaring at Tiffany.
Tiffanyâs face stiffened. Had she become such a vile woman to this young master? Charmine must have brainwashed him, insulting her behind her back!
She repressed her anger and smiled faintly at Chris. âOh, Chris is here as well. Auntie didnât know youâre here, I didnât bring you any presents. Donât worry, Iâm your Mommyâs sister, and I wonât harm you.â
âHah! Can you even believe what you just said? Also, your voice is so disturbing and pretentious! Can you shut up? And leave now!â yapped the impatient Chris. 1.
Tiffanyâs face stiffened, her words lodged in her throat at his outburst.
Did Chris just speak to her in such a tone? He called her...
Charmine did not want Chris involved in the matter of adults, thus she fondly ruffled his head and said, âMomo, be a good boy.
Go and prepare the rock-climbing equipment. Give me five minutes to ask her to leave, alright?â
âAlright, then,â muttered the pouting Chris, though he still scoffed at Tiffanyâs presence.â Listen up, you bad woman! Iâm warning you: Donât you hurt my Mommy, or my Daddy wonât go easy on you!â
With that, he ran upstairs.
Tiffanyâs expressions shifted one to the other, shocked and embarrassed. She was once the No. 1 Supermodel and everyone used to respect and admire her, yet even a kid hated her at that moment!
How could a kid say such mean things?!
It must be Charmine. Charmine must have bad-mouthed her behind her back, ruining her reputation. She wanted nothing more than to rip off that pretty face of Charmineâs, but since Robert was present, she could only glare at Charmine with her reddened eyes.
âCharmine, Iâve already apologized to you. Canât you forgive me? Why did you slander me before a mere child?â
âHah! Slander? Are you even worth my time to speak ill of?â Charmine rolled her eyes at her before turning her cold gaze to Robert. âThis is my home. Why did you let in a stray animal without my permission?â
âSheâs not a stray animal! Sheâs our sister!â Robert reiterated. âDonât you forget how she protected you since you were a kid,â he warned. âWhy did you two fight for a man?!â
âFor a man? Robert, I think we need to set things straight here,â Charmine scoffed and played à clip on her phone.
Immediately, the clip of Tiffany sleeping with Julian appeared in front of them. The Tiffany in the video moaned, âJulian darling, am I prettier? Or is Charmine prettier? Do you like me or Charmine?â
âJulian darling, Iâm just worried that youâll fall for her. Iâm worried that youâll be attracted by her wealth and looks, and I fear you wonât like me anymore...
âWill you still take her assets for me? To marry me after divorcing her?â
Every word, every phrase of her was so fake yet seducing, and the expression on her face was completely different from her face at that moment.
Robert jolted. A person could easily forget how cruel Tiffany was in the clip, especially when the Tiffany standing before them looked so pure and innocent. Who could believe she had this side of her? That was until Charmine brought the video up again...
