Chapter 338
“The plain-in-sight troubles can be easily solved, but the anonymous threats are the hardest to fight with. You can’t take this risk! Don’t be foolish!”
The four elderly men tried to talk Charmine out of her decision.
The adamant Charmine merely offered a small smile. “Don’t worry. However foolish I may be, I’ll still be able to protect myself. Even if I can’t, I still have you all, as well as Kay and his men!”
It was apparent, with what she said, that she chose Anthony.
“Charmine Jordan!” Uncle Pop called out her full name with a serious tone.
“Alright, alright,” ushered Charmine, “I know what I’m doing. It’s getting late, though. I’m only twenty-three, and I’m not getting married till I’m at least thirty! It’s getting late; go and get some rest. There are guest rooms upstairs.”

Charmine sat up and answered the call. Instantly, she could see Chris’ adorable, round face as he waved at her happily. “Mommy, Mommy, I saw the news! You’re the person in the news, right?”
“Huh? What news?” Charmine was confused.
Chris continued , “Lord of Honors! Someone deposited a billion bucks to challenge Uji Quin, and everyone’s making guesses on who it is. Daddy and I both agreed that this is something Mommy would do!
