Anthony was speechless.
Nonetheless, he did do something terrible.
Charmine hugged Chris and rubbed his back gently, asking, "Were you a good boy when Mommy wasn't around?" "Yes, Momo was good." Chris nodded and looked at Anthony smilingly." Oh, Daddy's back, too!"
Although he knew Anthony had his reasons for doing what he did, why did he not choose to speak to Charmine and instead had to hurt her?
Chris was still angry at Anthony.
"I thought you have selective blindness," remarked Anthony.
Only then did Chris run into Anthony's arms. "I saw you already, but Mommy is more important."
Anthony rubbed his head and did not hold this against him. He lifted him into his arms, and the three of them went inside the bamboo house together.
When Charmine saw that the house was empty, she frowned and asked," Dear, where is Auntie Dior?" "Oh...” Chris then replied, "Auntie Dior left early in the morning."
Charmine paused for a moment and grew worried. "Did she say where she was going?" asked Charmine again.
Chris shook his head. "She didn't. Before she left, she told me to tell you to not be worried about her. She has thought it through, and she wants to find a place to start her life again."
Charmine pursed her lips.
Dior had been feeling better in the past two days. She would probably be less stubborn and sad at this point.
She hoped that Dior could start her new life somewhere.
The three of them went inside the bamboo house. Charmine then poured Anthony a cup of tea and began instructing him rather sternly, "Take care of your body here. Don't overthink things or do anything silly. Remember: avoidance is cowardice, and I don’t like men who avoid things. Don’t you ever think that leaving me is for my own good. This will end up hurting me, and I don't need that!" 1
Her earnestness was palpable.
Anthony looked at her gently. "I heard you, my darling wife."
Charmine’s pupils dilated, stirred at Anthony's reaction.
"Oh?" Chris looked at the two of them and purposefully made a huge reaction. He happily imitated their conversation.
He first put on an arrogant and cold attitude. "Don't do anything silly!"
He then shifted his tone, sounding soft and gentle. "I heard you, my darling wife." i
Both Anthony and Charmine were flustered.
Visibly embarrassed, Charmine said, "I'm going to tidy up the room."
Anthony hugged Chris and said, "You’re a good actor. Why don’t you be an actor?"
Chris blinked his watery eyes, "Because I want to keep Mommy company and take care of her.”
Anthony had a pleased look in his eyes as he placed Chris down.
Although to Chris, Charmine was more important than himself, this was what he wanted.
The father and son would take care of Charmine together.
A moment later, Anthony thought of something and asked, "Who told your Mommy about everything?"
Other than William and Nial, nobody else knew about it, and both of them would never tell on him.
Chris was just suspicious and replied, "Chloe ran out to stop her just before Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Mommy was about to leave last night." "Chloe?"
Anthony instantly had the images of that delicately adorable little girl.
"That's right!" chirped Chris. "The cute little Chloe!"
Anthony squinted.
How did she find out? How did she know so precisely that he was about to undergo a surgery at Burton Island?
Only Nial knew about this operation.
Anthony frowned in confusion.
"Who are her parents?" he questioned.
