Chapter 1553

The staff nodded. “Okay.” Hearing Anthony’s response, Waverly’s once worried expression was overtaken by smugness. She could feel everyone’s look of admiration. With a victorious smile spreading across her lower face, she could not help reaching out to put her arms around Anthony. “I feel so spoiled, sweetheart.” Who would have thought that he would not even blink when spending 1.34 billion! He would spend so much on her! Before she could touch Anthony’s hand, however, he coldly evaded her. Waverly’s hands hung mid-air. Her face was pale, but she instantly put on a gentle smile and said, “I’m happy.” It did not matter what Anthony was thinking. All that mattered was that others thought he treated her well and that she was marrying into the Bailey family. The title was worth it! As for whether he cared about her, she knew and was not lying to herself. He did not care about her. However, they would have more time to spend together once she married him. She believed that he would eventually fall for her! After making the payment, the chill exuded by Anthony intensified. After he took back his card, he marched out with his long legs. Waverly followed after him in her heels, going into his car before Anthony turned toward her, eyes dark as he snapped, “Get out!” This was the first time Waverly had seen such a look on him. It was sharp like a knife, as if she might get skewered if she did not vanish from his line of sight. This man was crazy! He was the one who agreed to get this customized ring, and he was furious? Waverly was furious as she got out of his car, but she forced out a gentle smile, still. “Drive safely and—” Before she could finish her sentence, the car shot away like an arrow. The car zipped past her fiercely, thunderously. Waverly remained transfixed on the spot. She glared at the car with her fists clenched. Curse that Anthony Bailey! How could he treat her this way? It was all Charmine’s fault! Whenever there was anything to do with Charmine, Anthony would act like a crazy man! She had to make sure Charmine was completely out of Anthony’s world! ... Anthony bolted through the road as though letting out steam. His knuckles turned white as he clenched the steering wheel. He sped along the way, driving toward the [Recovery] set. Charmine was shooting the ‘betrayal’ scenes. She was engrossed in her acting and performed well. She finished her part early and thus went into her resting lounge to study her script. As she was focused on her reading, her door abruptly opened… She turned to see Anthony’s tall figure standing in front of her door. He was in his suit, looking elegant with that handsome face of his, cold as ever. She was traumatized by the sight of him. Whenever she saw him, she could not help recalling the sight of him sleeping with Waverly. Her gaze was standoffish as she emotionlessly began, “Mr. Bailey, don’t you know how to knock?” Anthony acted as if he did not hear her. He walked toward her and questioned her coldly, “You can design a wedding ring for your ex-fiancé that he’ll be giving his new fiancée?” Charmine smiled. She curled up her red lips and said proudly, “Why not? A customer is spending a large sum of money to customize a ring. I’m no dimwit. Why would I turn that down? As for who is customizing and who is receiving it, what does that have anything to do with me?” Anthony’s thin lips curled up mockingly. “I thought too highly of you, Charmine.” Charmine’s smile broadened. “Mr. Bailey, don’t act as if you know me well. From the moment we broke up, you’ve ceased to exist in my world. As for the ring, you’re my customer, and I’m the supplier. Why would I turn this down?” The ferocity Anthony gave off was so palpable as he glared at Charmine angrily. He tried to look for a hint of pretense in her eyes, but her face was sincere and businesslike. There was not an inkling of emotion in her expression.
