Warning My Mommy is A Savage

chapter 1957

"No one's stopping you now. Eat!'

Anthony clenched his hands tightly and took another glance at Charmine. He was more determined than before, and he was close to eating the pills in the bottle.

Charmine, who was held hostage, gradually opened her eyes at that moment. Her gaze drifted toward Eric before she asked, her tone challenging, "Will you really feel good after you've killed them? You saw Susan suffering from a serious wound; would you still kill the one sibling you have left in the world?" ’

Eric halted, and his eyes darkened.

Charmine had just woken up, yet what she said...

He cast a cold glance at Charmine. "It's my business, and it has nothing to do with you!"

They were his family, and he did not want a family like this!

Charmine looked squarely at him. "Eric, I don’t care if you used me or plotted against me all these years; I've treated you like a true friend, nothing more nor less. You were the only person who stayed by my side in the past five years, so I hope that you can forgive them and yourself. Don’t do this out of an urge and regret for the rest of your life!

"Look at Susan! Are you happy with this ending? Will the death of two people truly make you happy?" questioned

Charmine, reaching into his soul calmly.

Eric’s eyes were cold and hard to read, but in his mind echoed Susan's words, 'I've looked for you for over twenty years ever since.'

'Would you still kill the one sibling you have left in the world?'

'Don’t do this out of an urge and regret for the rest of your life!'

Would he...genuinely be happy if they died?

Charmine, noticing Eric's hesitance, continued, "Eric, if Anthony dies, I might just die, too. Even if I don’t die, we'll be enemies forever. Is this what you want our five-year friendship to become? For your mother's mistake, you'd want your world to change forever, from friendships to your career. Is it worth it?" © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Eric's burden-filled eyes became even more clouded.

Was it worth it?

For Susan to ruin his life...

Moments later, Eric shut his eyes in pain. He turned around and said to the Baileys, "Go! Leave!"

When the man holding Charmine hostage heard this, he released her from his hold.

Charmine stashed away the needles in her hands and let out a sigh of relief.

Luckily, Eric chose this route...or she would not have gone easy on him either. He did not disappoint her, in the end.

She stood up to leave.

When she got out of the cruise, Anthony's tall figure rushed toward her and met her halfway, stretching out his arms and embracing her when he got close.

When he let her go, he scanned her worriedly. "Are you hurt?"

"No," said Charmine. "He just wanted to threaten you, not to hurt me."

Anthony hugged her tightly.

Only God knew how worried he was.

Even though he knew she was capable, her life was literally at stake. He would feel hurt if she lost even one strand of her hair!

The Baileys surrounded both of them and aired their concerns.

"Charmine, are you okay?"

"They didn't hurt you, did they?"

Charmine held Anthony's hand and smiled weakly. "I'm fine."

"Good." Grandma Bailey let out a sigh of relief. "I'm sorry that you've been wronged again, Charmine."

Charmine remained calm as always. "It’s okay."

All that mattered was everything was resolved, that no more trouble would follow after this.

Grandma Bailey looked at her and liked her genuinely. She admired Charmine's kind-hearted self.

She not only treated her as her in-law, but she even treated her like her actual granddaughter!

Following that, they thought of Susan's injury and then rushed toward the hospital.
