Chapter 363
At Violet Villa
Charmine spent the summer with Chris, reading checker manuals and researching architectural designs. She had been on alert in case McKenzie and Julian tried anything, but nothing happened.
Time passed, and the day of Senior Bailey’s birthday celebration had arrived.
Charmine woke up to an empty bedroom that morning. She frowned and walked downstairs.
In the living room, she saw Anthony and Momo standing by the door talking to Luke, and Luke left with a purple box in his hands.
She frowned and asked, “What happened?”
“Nothing, nothing!” Chris turned to her and shook his head vigorously.
In order to make it less suspicious, Chris ran to Charmine and pulled at her hand to divert her attention. “Mommy, I’ll attend Grandpa’s birthday party with Daddy today! You have to take good care of yourself, alright?”
Anthony walked over and said, “There’s breakfast inside the microwave. Remember to eat it.”
“You’re going with Momo?” blurted Charmine.
Anthony nodded.
Chris was part of the Bailey family anyway, and Anthony had never backed away from the rumors. He would go anywhere with Chris.
Charmine pressed on, “But your parents don’t like Momo, and the rest of the family don’t like him either. If he goes with you, they’d just ridicule him.”
Anthony looked at Chris and said, “He’s a man.”
Three words, uttered clearly and convincingly. As his son, Chris should get used to all of that from a young age.
Chris looked at Charmine and reassured her, “Don’t worry about me, Mommy, I’m fine. I’ll make myself stronger and protect you with Daddy!”
Charmine gave Anthony no room to refute as she walked away to the kitchen with Chris in her arms.
Chris made a face at Anthony as he was in Charmine’s arms-his puffy hands hooked around Charmine’s neck-and chirped, “Yay! Mommy loves me! Momo loves Mommy!”
Realization struck Anthony when Chris uttered that one word-love.
That naughty kid was getting in the way!
Meanwhile, at Bayview Apartment…
Julian stood in front of a full-length body mirror, buttoning his collar button elegantly when Oliver came in to report, “Mr. Cabell, Anthony had left the Bailey mansion. Ms. McKenzie’s reminding you to seize this opportunity.”
“Alright.” Julian picked up his suit jacket and hung it over his arm.
He looked into the mirror with a sophisticated look as he fixed his tie. He only walked out after making sure there was no problem. Suddenly, Tiffany rushed in anxiously.
