Chapter 768
Fredrick insisted that Anthony and Waverly make a proper announcement of their relationship to stop the speculations. After all, they had yet to provide a satisfactory answer.
'The paparazzi followed around because of your attitude," added Fredrick." If you admit it to them, they'll stop trying to dig in deeper. Everyone will feel at ease. 1
"Coincidentally, tomorrow happens to be the trade fair between Burlington and Kansas. If you can announce your engagement then, the economy of both countries will benefit from this."
With narrowed eyes, Anthony eventually relented, "Okay."
Susan and Fredrick sighed in relief with that.
What a delight! Anthony finally wanted to admit it to the public. What a grand improvement!
Overjoyed, both Susan and Master D’Cruz left in satisfaction.
The moment the door closed, Anthony stood up right away and walked to the equipment room to open the door.
Charmine was still rooted where she stood, unable to react.
Anthony and Waverly would announce their engagement tomorrow...
Anthony gazed at her and comforted, "Fret not, my lady. Ms. D'Cruz has agreed to swap you in on the engagement day." 1
"Yes. I'll clarify to everyone that you two were held back by the Bailey family," spoke Waverly in an understanding tone. "As your friend, I volunteered to help you both, and I volunteer to help till the engagement day."
Nonetheless, everything felt like it spiraled out of control for Charmine. "No one will accept it then. The D'Cruz family won't simply forgive you either."
"Don't worry-my father loves me. The most he'd do is to say a few words. Helping you will also help my reputation, too, so it’s no big deal," assured
Waverly. 1
Anthony placed his arm around Charmine's waist and comfortingly vowed," We'll also show them the ring contact and marriage certificate on the engagement day, and it'll be too late for the Baileys to reject. In the next ten days, without monitoring them, I can make arrangements for Annabel and Momo. We don’t have to worry anymore."
Charmine could only nod.
She wished forthat, ardently. She hoped things could go on smoothly...
However, why was Waverly willing to help them with no intention?
That felt odd for Charmine, but alas, she could not point her finger at it.
"You two continue on with what you're doing," said Charmine to Anthony and Waverly, i’ll go home to look into their medical records.”
"Okay, I'll walk you out." Anthony took Annabel’s and Chris' documents and escorted her out.
Standing before the lift, he did not hurry to press the button. Instead, he reached out to caress her hair. "My lady, you’ve been wronged in the past few days.”
Charmine's eyes darkened. Wronged? Oh, she was wronged, alright.
She had to watch him and Waverly walking about while she had to stay hidden.
However, thinking of his hard work and his goal, her red lips curled up. "It won't last for long. After all, we still have forever ahead of US."
When Anthony heard that word-forever-his eyes were filled with warmth.
His lips parted, "My lady is right, it’s the final ten days. I’ll oversee everything to its best."
"Okay, but there's no hurry to send them out. I'll look into their medical records, and only send them off if I can't help," Charmine reminded him.
Anthony had already guessed that she had mastered the Ultimate Seventy- Two Needles. His woman had always been stellar.
'Take care, my lady," he bade her.
He personally held the lift door open for her and sent her out.
Charmine held the documents close to her as she watched the lift closing.
Through the tiny gap of the door, she could see Waverly helping Annabel to walk over. One was conceiving Anthony's child and the other was a perfect match to Anthony's background: the heiress of the wealthiest, Waverly D'Cruz.
Once she left, Anthony had to spend time with them, and he spent almost every day and night with them... 1
Tomorrow, Anthony and Waverly would announce their engagement to the public...
