Anthony then leaned closer to Charmine’s ear and said, "I’ll obey whatever position you want, dearest."
To this, Charmine became tongue-tied.
After lunch that afternoon, a few luxury cars were ready outside the Bailey mansion, and the Baileys were ready to visit the Houstons.
Charmine had changed into a dark-red ankle-length dress. With her hair put up, she looked stunning and sexy.
She took up her bag and hooked her arm around Anthony's. She was ready to leave when the phone in her bag rang abruptly.
Charmine fished out her phone and noticed that the caller was Senior Jordan. She accepted the call and greeted, "Grandpa." "Charmine," Senior Jordan’s weary voice was heard from the other end of the call, "Robert woke up." "What!?" Charmine felt electrified. "Where's he now?"
It was Tiffany who had drugged Robert a few months ago. The doctors said that he should have woken up earlier, but he remained in a coma while they could not even identify the cause.
Today, however, he had woken up.
"We've brought him home. Come home and have a look at yourself," said Senior Jordan.
Charmine looked up at Anthony, a frown adorning her face, but she nodded a little while later. "Okay, I’ll come now."
When she hung up, Anthony asked, "Why do you seem so excited, dearest?"
Charmine held onto his arm and said happily, "Grandpa said that Robert has woken up. He's home now!"
Anthony, seeing how happy Charmine was, was just as happy. "I’m glad that he's awake now.”
Charmine pursed her lips and said, "I want to go home and visit him. I can’t come to the Houston mansion. Help me tell Grandma about this."
Anthony nodded and raised an eyebrow at her. "My darling, are you not worried about McKenzie clinging onto me?"
Charmine looked at him, and her red lips curled into a smile. "I trust my choice of husband and his personality." i

He thought for a moment before he offered, "Why don't I go with you?" "No need," said Charmine, "they insisted you go. Furthermore, if you go back with me, they might think that I'm controlling my husband."
Anthony grinned. "I don't mind being controlled. It'll be my honor." "But I do. I don't want others to call me a jealous wife!" insisted Charmine and fixed his tie. "Go on, and I'll go and visit my brother. We'll reunite. Don't let Grandma wait for too long."
Anthony was helpless, and he could only reach out to smooth her hair. "Do take care. Call me if anything comes up." "Alright." Charmine smiled. "Go on."
Anthony lowered his head to kiss her seemingly glistening forehead. He then turned and headed down.
Charmine, meanwhile, went back to the room and got changed before she left for the Jordan mansion.
Upon arriving at the Jordan mansion, she walked into a seemingly lively room.
She pushed the door open and saw a group of people surrounding Robert, all of them conveying their best wishes.
Senior Jordan had tears in his eyes, evidently relieved and gladdened." Robert, you have no idea how long I've waited for this day. I used to be strict on you and didn’t allow you to play online games. I've thought it all through, however, and you can do and pursue whatever your heart desires!"
Robert, surrounded by the people, seemed to be more mature as contrast to his youthful expression.
"Thank you, Grandpa," said Robert. "Sorry to have worried you."
Meanwhile, footsteps were heard, and the Jordans turned to see Charmine walking in.
Seeing her at last, Robert recalled what happened before his coma, and he seemed visibly conflicted.
He stood up and pursed his lips, calling out to Charmine, "Sister."
Everyone was taken aback by this.
What was that...?
Robert never liked Charmine, and all of a sudden, he called her 'sister*? Had he finally matured after surviving his coma?
