Chapter 1557

Maurice's body might falter without food...

Charmine looked at Maurice. Recalling how kind he had been treating her, she did not hesitate to nod. "Okay."

Sofia let out a sigh of relief, 'Thank you, Ms. Jordan." "You're welcome. Don't mention it."

Charmine turned back to look at Maurice. His face was pale as he sat quietly on the sofa, visibly weak.

Charmine's expression was washed with pity.

He was a good-hearted man; he should not be punished by his illness. She had to cure him. i

This could be her returning the favor to him.

At night, Charmine came home from work and washed up before going over to Maurice's.

He was not awake yet.

Charmine frowned and asked Sofia, "Does he usually lose consciousness this long?" "Yes," replied Sofia, "and he'll wake up tomorrow morning."

Charmine sympathized with him. She then thought it through and said, "I'll make soup. He can heat it up when he wakes up tomorrow."

If not, she had to rush for the design tonight and probably stay up all night. She would not be waking up as early.

"Alright. Thank you, Ms. Jordan." "It's okay," replied Charmine and went into the kitchen.

Sofia had been taking care of Maurice for the day. Alas, she had other things to attend to.

When she walked out, a luxury car passed by.

Sofia noted that the car seemed familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere, but she just could not point her finger at it. Since she had things to attend to, she did not dwell on it and drove away. Anthony sat inside his car with a cold expression. He narrowed his eyes as he watched the car drive away.

He emanated sheer-cold fury.

He was a fool to have come...but it did not diminish his worry that Charmine might stay up all night again.

He came here early, and all he saw was that after Charmine finished work, she went home for a shower before heading over to Maurice's villa.

They even asked his assistant to leave!

Could they not wait to spend time alone?

Anthony's thin lips spread into a smirk, his eyes darkening as he glared at Maurice's villa.

He waited from nine till twelve in the morning, yet Charmine still did not come out!

The air around him dropped into a dangerously cold temperature.

Was Charmine staying with him? Did the two of them sleep together?

D*mn it!

He could not help picturing her hugging Maurice or even sleeping with him. Anthony's heart sank. 1

Unable to reason with himself, he took out his phone and made a phone call.

Within 20 minutes, a police car rushed over. A few police officers got down and rang the doorbell.

Charmine went to open the door and was confused to see the police." Someone reported that there's illegal substances in here. Please allow us to investigate." Charmine was speechless.

Illegal substance? Who were they kidding?

A moment later, she thought of something and looked around.

It was empty with nothing around.

Charmine looked away and invited the police officers to come inside.

When the officers got in, they saw a man sleeping on the sofa in this empty, big villa.

One of them turned back to ask Charmine, "What's your relationship with him?"

Charmine thought of the situation and answered, "We're a couple. I stayed here to look after my boyfriend."

She had to say this to minimize their suspicion.

Outside the villa, Anthony heard this, and his large hands clenched into fists. His veins were showing on his arms.
