Warning: My Mommy is A Savage novel Chapter 782

Chapter 782

Acupuncture was the safest treatment method since ancient times. If it was targeted right in the roots of the disease, the side effect was very trivial.

Charmine had practiced on white mouses during the past five days with no negative outcome whatsoever. Moreover, that set of techniques and the process was even specifically altered for Momo. 'How can this happen?'

Anthony walked to her side and sat down. "No worries-don't rush. There's still plenty of time."

Dejected and hopeless, Charmine initially thought that the technique could cure Momo. She would not have to worry about Annabel and Waverly then, and she could also make Momo recover as soon as possible.

'Sad to see that's not happening right now.’

She looked at Anthony. “1'11 be sleeping with Momo tonight, and I’ll leave first thing tomorrow morning."

For the past few days, they were on their guard to prevent unnecessary things from happening, even though they had an underground passage.

Anthony nodded. "Alright."

Memo's pudgy little hands grasped Charmine's hand as he assured, "Don't worry, Mommy. No need to rush. Actually, my disease isn't..."

"Yeah... I'll accompany you to sleep. Soon, the pain will subside."

Charmine held onto him, heartbroken, and went up the bed, gently comforting him. Eventually, the pain from the needles gradually disappeared and Momo slowly dozed off in her arms.

Charmine, meanwhile, was troubled in her thoughts. 'Why did it fail? I targeted my needles on the roots of the disease, yet the needles seemed to be rejected. Did I target the wrong points?'

'But, if the positions were incorrect, the needles wouldn't have vibrated.'

She vaguely thought of something and her eyes grew dim.

'It seems I'll have to look it up thoroughly the next time.’

After ordering his men to guard the perimeter, Anthony returned to his room and laid next to Charmine, hugging her waist from behind.

Feeling the warmth from his body, Charmine recalled everything that had happened.

'Momo's condition is unstable right now, and yet Anthony still has to leave his home country as well?'

A sense of unwillingness grew within her and she solemnly offered," Anthony, why don't we-’’

Before she even finished talking, Anthony's big hand suddenly covered her lips gently, stopping her from continuing her sentence.

"Believe me," he assured, "that you'll be the prettiest protagonist on the day of the engagement ceremony."

Charmine closed her eyes slightly. 'Will I?'

No use in overthinking it, however. Even if Waverly were to help them prove their innocence, they would still be the target of the entire world, and the people of Kansas would definitely not stop there.

In such a situation, they had to face the world’s criticism and attack, and they also had to obtain the Bailey family's acknowledgment. 'Can we make it? Will Momo and Annabel be safe out there?'

Thought afterthought intruded Charmine's mind. She wanted to speak and wanted to withdraw, but Anthony stopped her from doing so.

"You just have to face it straight on after the declaration," he softly comforted her by her ear, "and everything will just work out fine. It's far better than staying stagnant right now and not going forward."

She frowned. 'Staying stagnant and not going forward... He's got a point. Things will only go down south if nothing's done to change it. Besides, I can’t allow Anthony and Waverly to get engaged.¹

The next morning, Charmine left Momo a concise yet lengthy message, reminding him to take care of himself and so on. Then, under Anthony's secret arrangement, Momo and Annabel were sent to a safe place outside. Susan and the rest were busy preparing for the engagement ceremony and had no time to pay attention to Chris.

Everything went on smoothly.

The engagement ceremony had arrived in a blink of an eye, and it attracted the attention of everyone from all over the world.

The engagement ceremony was held at the highest level of Moonlight Shore in Burlington, standing tall enough to overlook the entire city and was decorated to the nines. Elite bosses from all over the world attended the ceremony.

In a room behind the stage, Charmine arrived at the venue via the secret passage Anthony had provided.
