without a word uttered, Anthony’s hand landed on her shoulder before he made a sharp tug.
With one pull, a strand of hair was pulled out from the shirt.
It was late at night, and Anthony busied himself with pulling out a strand of hair from her shirt? Also, how could he spot a strand of hair in the dark room? The strand of hair only got longer the more he pulled…
Realization dawned on Charmine as she half-whispered, “Stop!”
Too late.
With a pull, the stitches on one pajama sleeve came off. Not knowing what material the shirt was made of, a small patch was already missing on her chest area as her bralette was revealed!
Anthony’s large hand halted; he never expected such a thing to happen either. “My apologies,” he muttered lowly, “I’ll get you another shirt to change into?”
“No need.”
She would wake up anyway, and it would be too much of a hassle to change into another shirt. She pulled over the blanket to cover herself as she added, “Sleep facing away.”
Anthony frowned, but he eventually relented, “Okay.”
He would never reject her request. With that, he flipped over and faced away from Charmine.
Charmine thought she would sleep in peace, but the lone sight of his back made her heart skip a beat for the nth time!
Under the moonlight, his back seemed wide as his broad shoulders arched into his fit waist. Anthony, undeniably, had the perfect male model’s physique. His muscular figure could make a person launch at him automatically and tightly hug him in bliss.
This man… Even his silhouette could turn one’s imagination as wild as it could get. Charmine shut her eyes hastily and forced her mind to divert from her fantasy. She repeatedly chanted in her mind, ‘Beauty is deceiving, beauty is deceiving. It’s all in your mind… It’s all in your mind…
The clock ticked on and, luckily, Anthony kept his promise and did not turn around. Gradually, his breathing became calmer.
As she thought of her plan and the Walker family, Charmine climbed out of bed after she was sure that Chris and Anthony were fast asleep. Her shirt fell off as she sat up, a result of being torn. Luckily, Anthony was asleep and did not see her. She paid no mind to it and walked into the changing room. She then picked out dark-colored clothes from her luggage and put them on before she stealthily left the room. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
The moment she left the room, Anthony-who laid still on the bed-opened his eyes.
Charmine, however, did not notice that. She used the key Anthony gave her before, picked the quietest car from the garage, and left the mansion.
The black compact car drove away to a mountain located five miles out of the city. The mountain range stretched up to more than 10 kilometers. According to rumors, wild animals were spotted in the area, thus nobody dared to approach this mountain. While others assumed this was a normal but dangerous mountain, Charmine knew that this was where the Walker gang operated.
Tiffany hired the Walker gang to set her up five years ago, and since the Walker gang was a well - established organization with strict rules and disciplines, they would not disclose any information, which
was why Charmine failed to find any information for the past five years.
It was almost time for everything to come to light. Charmine had to find out who did it!
Charmine got down from the car and swiftly walked toward the mountain. While it was pitch black, she had excellent vision. She climbed over the tree trunks, swung over the huge green vines, and crossed the gullies. Dressed in dark clothing, she was akin to a wild cat of the night. In the darkness, Anthony followed behind her and watched her agile body with clouded eyes.
