chapter 1689
As long as Charmine was happy, that was all that mattered.
Dior and Charmine conversed for a long while at the field. By the time she returned home, Charmine felt less confused than before.
Seeing her empty house, Charmine debated for a while before she headed out to find medicine for stomach ache relief from the clinic. Once done, she made her way to the small house nearby hers.
Inside the house...
Anthony, suffering from a bad stomach cramp, leaned on the sofa. When he heard the door opening, he opened his eyes gradually.
His eyes lit up instantly upon noticing it was Charmine.
The way she looked-gentle, laced in worry-made him feel as if it was the same Charmine who used to care about him a lot.
His heart tingled with warmth as he blurted out her name, "Charmine..."
Charmine looked at him and was more assured of her thought.
No matter what happened in the past or what would happen in the future, at least at this moment, she could feel his love.
She should care less and live in the present.
"Mommy!"
Chris walked over and waved at her happily. "Mommy, you came because you’re worried about Daddy, aren’t you?"
Surprisingly, Charmine did not disagree.
Instead, she gazed at the pale-faced Anthony and asked, "Are you feeling better?"
Sure, her tone was not that endearing, but it was not as harsh as the past few days.
Anthony instantly felt his blood growing warm. Was Charmine...actually speaking to him calmly?
"Daddy, Mommy is speaking to you!" Chris stood by the side and nudged Anthony happily.
Anthony snapped out of his thoughts and gently replied, "Much better, don’t worry." "Oh." Charmine placed the medicines that she had picked up onto the table and said, 'This is to relieve the cramps. Three times per day, after a meal."
Anthony was once more befuddled as he stared at Charmine in disbelief.
She brought him medicine?
What...happened?
Whatever it was, so long as she was treating him better, anything would get better!
"Alright!" he answered.
Charmine nodded and looked at Chris. "Momo, let's go home." "Okay!"
Chris, seeing Anthony and Charmine on better terms, was over the moon.
Grabbing Charmine’s hand, Chris turned to look at Anthony and winked, seemingly telepathically telling him, 'Keep up the good work.’
Anthony had never felt so at peace before. His eyes felt hot with tears, and he smiled weakly, i
He leaned on the sofa and watched as the two most important people in his life exited his house as a euphoric feeling washed over him.
His effort at the village finally paid off. Charmine was, at last, not as harsh anymore! 2
As long as she could be more accepting, any sacrifice he had to make was worth it. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
With that, he could go on to treat his body.
Charmine woke up early the next day and cooked porridge.
Once she was finished, she woke Chris up and said, "Dear, go and ask your Daddy to have breakfast." "Haha!" Chris thought of what happened last night and could not fight back the grin that spread across his face. "Mommy, have you forgiven Daddy?" he chirped. "Will you two be together, forever and ever?"
Charmine halted.
Forever?
That seemed rather distant.
She once pictured and anticipated her future with Anthony, holding hands and growing old with him, but...
She dared not dream of it anymore.
She looked at Chris and softly replied, "I don't know what the future holds, but for now, I won't kick your Daddy out."
To this, Chris was instantly exhilarated.
