chapter 1767
Nial's dream had vanished, and his goddess was gone.
Nial's head whipped toward Anthony. "Bro, you tricked me on purpose, didn’t you?!"
If he knew that Cabbage was a little girl, why did he not tell him earlier? Why did he give him false hope and anticipation?!
"I did introduce you to Cabbage,” deadpanned Anthony.
"Uncle Anthony didn’t lie to you," added Chloe adorably. "What's wrong, Uncle? How else would you like me to prove it?" NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Nial was speechless.
He was crying without tears.
Looking at the adorable little girl before him, Nial quickly shook his head.
No need. You don't need to prove it."
If she had to prove it, he might as well be dead.
He felt the whole world crashing down on him as he recalled he still had to loosen the soil.
He stood up and said to Anthony, "In this case, you better hire others to loosen up the soil for you tomorrow, Bro. I don’t have any energy left."
Anthony's gaze grew steely. "You need to keep your word. If you change your mind, I'll make you go on dates."
He had a thought and said with a half-smile, "We can have our weddings on the same day. It’ll be great!" "Argh! I don't want to get married!" Nial was so terrified that his body went limp. He panted, "It's great for you and Charmine, but not for me! Fine, I'll go! I'll go and loosen up the soil!"
Much to Anthony's pleasure, it was.
Charmine, on the other hand, grew suspicious upon hearing Anthony's words. "What’s going on?"
Anthony looked at her gently and said, "My darling wife, my condition has stabilized now. We can resume our wedding."
Charmine was caught off-guard at this. "Wedding?" "Yes." Anthony hugged her and continued, dignified, "I’ll declare to the world that I want to marry you and have you as my wife. I want to give you the biggest wedding."
Charmine was moved.
Finally, the long-overdue wedding she had anticipated was finally happening!
However...
His illness was just getting better. Would it be too much of a rush to hold a wedding?
Seeing that she did not answer, Anthony held her hands tightly and said, " We didn't go public due to many reasons. I’ve wronged you, too. Now is the time. I want to marry you officially, and I want to introduce you to everyone. I want you to take care of Momo officially, to be seen in all public places. I hope, my dear, that you’ll say yes."
Anthony's words were filled with formality and sincerity.
Charmine met his eyes and thought for a while before nodding. "Okay."
Anthony drove Charmine out of the village the next day.
There was a plot of land below the mountain. Looking ahead, other than a small patch of land that had been loosened, it seemed endlessly empty. There were no plants, but the view was stunning.
There was a mountain and stream by the side, and the clear water seemed to join with the sky. The mists that blanketed the surrounding looked conjoined to the clouds, too.
Anthony turned to instruct Nial emotionlessly, "Continue to loosen the earth here."
Nial was speechless.
Was he even his brother?!
Was he trying to wear him out and inherit his high intelligence?
Nial's lips parted, wanting to argue with Anthony before meeting that familiar, icy-cold stare.
Nial's heart sank.
If he said anything to him, knowing Anthony, he would not only make him loosen all the earth here, he would even force him to have blind dates! He dared not offend him.
