Warning My Mommy is A Savage

Chapter 228

“Correct. Tell me right away if something catches your eye in the near future,” said Anthony with a deep and elegant voice.

Charmine’s heartbeat disappointingly skipped a beat. He spent ten billion just because she liked the gown?

She looked at him and asked, “Why are you so kind to me?”

They never owed each other anything; they were only fulfilling the contract. She made it clear that she would leave in two months.

Anthony looked at her with doubt, though he had a faint smirk on his face. “Are you sure you want to hear the reason?”

That voice… That tone…

“No need,” Charmine hastily replied. “Well… I’ll go and accompany Chris. Thank you.”

With that, she hurriedly walked away with the gift box in her hands. 1

Anthony would have surely confessed his feelings once more had he truly replied; he would have told her that he fancied her. Rejecting him too many times could really hurt his ego, thus it was wiser to walk away. 1

Still, as she walked away with the exquisite box that kept the item she needed and liked in her arms, a sense of happiness and warmth surged within her that she never felt before. Her lips involuntarily curled up gradually. It did not occur to Charmine just how much she looked like a love-struck teenage girl at that moment.

It was not until she walked into her room and walked past the full-body mirror, that she saw the look on her face which halted her steps. The girl inside the mirror was filled with happiness. Was it really her? Since when did she turn into such a person? Moreover, it was because of Anthony, the out-of-reach Anthony who changed her…

Who was Anthony? The ‘king that everyone in Burlington regarded as the high-above Boss Bailey! Even with her current wealth, she only owned less than a tenth of what he possessed!

What if Anthony found out about what happened to her five years ago? Would he still like her? Would he still treat her so kindly? Looking at the huge box in her hands, Charmine then thought about it for a good while, and it was only after that long while did she take out her phone and texted her personal banking assistant: (Transfer ten billion to Anthony Bailey’s account.)

(Ten billion bucks?) the assistant texted in shock.

[Yes, hurry.) replied Charmine.

She did not know what occurred to her when she received the gift moments ago, but as she mulled it over, who was she to accept his gift? She was leaving him in two months anyway, thus it was better to not owe him anything. 1

Anthony, at that moment, felt rather pleased with himself until he received an unes Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Anthony frowned. Ten billion bucks? Was this transfer from Charmine? She seemed fine as she walked downstairs, so why did she…?

His eyes turned dark.

Night came, and as Chris went back to the bedroom, he said to Charmjne, “Mommy, I feel dizzy tonight.”

“Dizzy? I’ll bring you to the hospital for a check-up.” Charmine grabbed onto his hand, ready t o leave.

However, Chris dismissed that as he said, “Mommy, no need. I always feel dizzy, especially a few hours before I get convulsions.”

Charmine frowned. Did that mean he was likely to suffer another convulsion?

Anthony walked over and comforted Chris, “Don’t think too much, I’ll stay by your side tonight.”

“Yay!” Chris chirped happily. As he pulled at Charmine’s hand to the bedroom, he turned to his father. “I’ll sleep with Mommy tonight, so you can watch over us by that side of the bed.”

By that side of the bed? Watch over? Charmine sensed something was brewing…
