Chapter 310
McKenzie’s nails dug deep into her palms. She was a perfectly chaste lady with a good reputation, and she had it in mind that her future husband would share such a character.

While it seemed like a trap both Anthony and Charmine had laid out, their relationship did not seem humdrum either. With the way Anthony held Charmine in his arms and even kissed her, they must have slept together!
McKenzie had an obsession with cleanliness. How could she accept a man who had slept with another woman? 2
She massaged her temple and muttered, “I need some time, so wait for my instruction in the next few days. Also, do something about Charmine.”
Did that idiot Charmine want to marry into the Bailey family? Hah! Once the Bailey family found out, McKenzie would not even need to lift a finger to get rid of her!
“Okay.” Miranda nodded and typed away on her phone.
The midsummer sky turned gloomy after a gust of wind, as though downpour was coming. Someone lurked around the Bailey mansion as they waited for the opportunity to take photos.
Concurrently..
Charmine received a call from Kay. “Boss Jordan, someone is trying to take photos of you and Boss Bailey together.”
Charmine frowned. That fast?
It seemed McKenzie was trying to use Senior Bailey to attack her.
Still, did McKenzie think that a photo of her was so easy to get? Hah!
“Keep an eye on them,” ordered Charmine, “and keep me updated.” Charmine hung up the call, her gaze hardened right after.
She did not need to leave the mansion anyway as she had nothing planned for two days. That person could lurk and wait all they wanted!
The hot weather only made the task harder to accomplish. The spy Miranda hired was exposed to the burning sun during the day and exposed to the pesky mosquitoes at night without any picture of Charmine!
In the blink of an eye, Horizon Night was just one day away. The Horizon organizing team had funded the project with a huge sum as they aimed to promote the traditional culture. 1
Charmine, as she wanted to spend time with Chris, gave every opportunity to the artists signed with her and retreated from the spotlight.
However, the evening before the big day, Rio suddenly called her, “It’s bad! We can’t find Scarlet!”
“Can’t find Scarlet?” Charmine’s eyes narrowed as she asked calmly, “Have you checked everywhere?”
“Yeah! We lost touch with her in the afternoon. Her manager and assistants had looked for her everywhere with no luck. Also, her phone was turned off. It’s strange,” explained Rio.
Charmine frowned. Of all days, Scarlet went missing on this day?
Scarlet seemed to be in a good mood as of late. Charmine had also provided the best proposal to her, which would be able to let her shine during the show tomorrow. She had been through the worst; it was strange for Scarlet to go missing at this moment.
Eventually, a thought occurred to Charmine as she quickly ordered, “Look for Johnson Spencer. Go to places where you could find him! Also, notify Eric and Kay about this.”
“Okay!” Rio picked up the oddity in this case and worked on it right away.
Charmine looked at the sky; it was only in the evening but the sky was filled with dark clouds. It would surely rain heavily. If they failed to find Scarlet quickly, things would get much rougher when it rained. 1
It was not just about the high liquidated damage fee to pay Horizon. With Johnson’s stance, who knew what he would do to Scarlet! If anything was to happen…
