chapter 1785
"Ms. Jordan, I don’t want to put you and President Bailey in a difficult situation. This matter can only be resolved if I'm dead."
Charmine looked at Annabel coldly, her tone flat as she spoke, 'You want to end your life when my wedding with Anthony's will be held tomorrow. Do you want us to be traumatized by this wedding for the rest of our lives?"
Annabel bit her lip, and her pale face was tearful. She looked pitiable.
"Sorry," she sobbed, "I will...l will wait after your wedding to end my life in a place with nobody around. I won't cause you any trouble." Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Charmine was baffled by Annabel's train of thought. 'You didn’t understand Senior Bailey's words. If we don’t resolve this now, we won't be having a wedding."
Annabel looked helpless. "I don't mean to ruin your wedding, but I don't want to make matters worse for everyone."
Charmine pursed her lips and said, "I've already agreed to the situation, so what's so hard about this? If you do this now, things will be harder on me."
Senior Bailey frowned. He looked at Annabel and said, "You don't have to think for others. If they said yes to this now, this will be resolved! Detach yourself from this way of thinking!"
Annabel's determined thinking seemed to have shifted at that moment. She looked up, her gaze wet with tears as she weakly bleated, "Are... Are you sure, Ms. Jordan?"
Charmine remained calm. 'Yes. I don't have an opinion. Anthony won't have one, too."
The two women fixed their eyes on Anthony.
Anthony was visibly grim and looked at Charmine darkly, not wanting to agree to this whole thing.
Although he did not mind having a third person at home, Charmine would feel upset, and he did not want her to be wronged because of him.
However, seeing how emotional Annabel was, if anything happened on the night before their wedding...
Anthony looked at Charmine meaningfully and resigned to his fate, relenting, "Okay."
Annabel seemed to have let out a sigh of relief. She was trying to be strong as she wiped off her tears. "President Bailey, Ms. Charmine, don't worry. I won't let the baby get in your way. I'll stay at the Bailey mansion like a maid. I'll be obedient and know my place." 'You don't need to," corrected Charmine. 'You, bearing Anthony’s child, are the rightful mother to the fetus. You deserve to live a comfortable life."
Hearing this, Senior Bailey gazed at Charmine approvingly. 'You are indeed my granddaughter-in-law. Right, this matter is now resolved, and nobody has to say anything else. Your wedding with Anthony will go on as planned, and I'll be there to congratulate you."
Charmine gave him a small nod. 'Thank you." "Alright, off you go, then. Annabel, you can stay here safely."
When they walked out of the door, Anthony held Charmine's hand tightly. He sounded remorseful as he muttered, "I'm sorry to have hurt you, my dearest."
He knew why she did so, so he did not have to ask further.
He knew her feelings better than anyone.
Charmine interlinked her fingers with his tightly, she said, 'You don't have to feel bad. I know you don't feel anything for her, it doesn’t matter if there’s another person at home. I don't mind. Furthermore..."
Charmine pursed her red lips and looked at him. She had something to say but suddenly stopped, opting instead to say, "If she’s at one extreme end and Grandpa insists, we'll have to do this for now. It's our wedding day tomorrow, and I don’t want anything to go wrong again."
