Chapter 989 What did she just hear?
Did Guy just confess to her?
Charmine turned toward Guy and noticed how awkward he seemed.
Judging by his behavior, he seemed to have fallen for her...
She suddenly recalled how he had been protective over her for the past few days. Since she was only concerned about getting the sword and the red wolf's bone, she did not pay much notice to him.
Goodness... She effectively landed herself in hot soup, i As the realization jolted her, she looked at Guy seriously and asked, "Guy, do you know why I'm working so hard to get the sword? Do you know why I want the Cherny family's approval?"
Guy frowned. He felt an uneasiness that he had not felt before.
He had a feeling that whatever he was about to be told, he would not be able to accept it... i As expected, Charmine continued sternly, "I'll be frank with you: Iâm married and have gotten my marriage certificate. I also have a five-year-old child." 3 Guy's tall and well-built body jolted. He felt as if he was struck by lightning.
She was married and had a five-year-old child?
IâImpossible!
He had checked her background in the past few days. She had broken up with Julian and was not married...
The surge of courage that suddenly overtook him made him meet her gaze as he spoke, "Ms. Jordan, I know you're not married.
Is this just an excuse to reject me?"
"No, itâs not. Iâm secretly married due to some special reasons; we donât want others to know. The reason I need the bone to cure the strange malady my child has been diagnosed with. Only this bone can save him. The reason I need to earn the Cherny familyâs approval is that the child's father is a well-known figure, and his family doesnât approve of a small family like the Jordans.
I have to earn the Chernys â approval so that I'd be approved of his family. This is all so that I can be with him." 1 Charmine spoke clearly, one word at a time without holding anything back.
After saying that, she looked Guy in the eye. "Don't fall for me, and don't think of being responsible to me. I don't need it. I swear with my life about what I just said. It's true. If you don't believe me, I'll bring you to him after we get out of here."
Guy was shocked and was transfixed on the spot.
His tall and well-built figure was stunned as if he was frozen.
The news hit him so harshly that he could not comprehend it.
She was actually married and even had a child!
She came to the Cherny mansion just to help her husband...
It was so rare that he fell for another woman, yet she was married to another man...
Guy experienced a feeling he had never felt before. It was as if his chest was cut open by a knife. 1 Pain. Incredibly painful. He found it hard to breathe.
Charmine saw the look in his eyes. She wanted to comfort him but did not know what to say.
She did not expect Guy would fall for her after just knowing him for two days...
Fall for her... This thought slipped past her mind. Suddenly, the alarm bell rang in her head loudly.
The thought that she did not grasp on suddenly resurfaced, and she realized then.
She finally realized why she ended up in this space-why she and Guy fell into this basement!
Oh, no! She had fallen into a trap from the start!
She had to rush and meet Anthony as soon as possible!
