Chapter 1927

Anthony was standing near the front yard when everything happened. The hall was noisy as he conversed with relatives, but it was due to this that he failed to hear the tumult coming from the back.

As he was drinking, he instinctively turned to look for Charmine, only to see her rushing away hastily.

Frowning, he placed down his wine glass and excused himself to run after her to the backyard.
