Chapter 1941

Anthony felt bad with her looking at him. He gulped, “Five years ago, I hurt you. I know there’s no use for me to say anything to you. You may hit me, scold me or put me to jail. Please, don’t do anything silly?” His voice was anxious and urgent, though his tone was gentle. Charmine looked at him coldly, “You knew this all long, why did you lie to me?” Anthony met her disappointed eyes and he could not breathe. He took a few steps forward, “I didn’t do it on purpose but…” He was afraid that once she learned about the truth, she might be in pain as of now. He was also afraid that she might do anything silly. Afraid that their difficult marriage would be over… He had always wanted to come clean to her but he lacked the courage to… Anthony’s eyes darkened with guilt, he said with a serious voice, “It’s all myself but do remember, you’re Charmine Jordan. You should punish me and not yourself. Listen to me, come down, alright?” As he spoke, he reached his hand out at her.
