Chapter 40

“I only agreed to let Momo stay. I didn’t say you can,”

Charmine reminded Anthony.

Anthony hesitated for a few seconds, and under

Charmine’s questioning gaze, he nodded. “Yes, I do.”

and carried the bags of fresh vegetables to the

biceps bulging under his white shirt—utterly

muscular and attractive. Charmine could not help
