Charmine’s assistants had already helped her change into her outfit for the Auto Show. Sitting in her chair, she was as still as a statue. Anthony walked toward Charmine and suddenly leaned forward. With a stretch of his hand, he tugged at the zipper of her tight fitting, leather top, zipping it all the way up. By doing this, he completely concealed her slender neck
Anthony glared at her and said, “The Mercedes Auto Show is a high-class event. There’s no need to show that much skin.”
The crowd gasped in surprise as they could not believe that Anthony had actually done up the zipper of Charmine’s top! With what he had said, his words sounded like those of a jealous and possessive boyfriend toward his girlfriend. This was unbelievable news! This powerful man was in a relationship with Charmine! That would explain the special favors he was showing Charmine!
Charmine wriggled uncomfortably in her seat. All the other models were dressed in skimpy tube tops or tops with a deep V-line. Was Anthony trying to make life hard for her in front of all these people? 1
Mr. Dalmore was worried that if things continued in this manner, all the models would lose their minds in anger! Hence, he quickly joined them and said, “Mr. Bailey, the Auto Show will begin in twenty minutes. We should make our way to the front stage where the others will be waiting for you.”
Anthony glanced over at Charmine and saw that even though her zipper was pulled right up t o the top of her neck, her sensuous curves were still clearly visible under the tight-fitting clothes. She looked like a seductress. ‘Perhaps allowing her to participate in the Auto Show was a huge mistake,’ he thought.
Anthony straightened up and his eyes icily swept across the room before he cooly said,” Charmine is the person that I’ve selected. Think carefully about the outcome before decidingt o mess with her.” His words had a menacing edge to them. Having finished saying that, Anthony turned and walked off.
The remaining staff quickly followed behind his heels, mopping the nervous sweat off their brows. Charmine watched Anthony’s retreating back surrounded by an entourage of people i na trance. ‘How could Anthony be so thick-skinned and constantly seek out a way to stick to me?’ she wondered.

“The person is gone so what are you still looking at? Do you really think that Anthony likes you? I bet it’s only a casual fling for him. He’s toying with you!” Eunice sneered, unable to conceal her jealousy.
Charmine pulled herself together and shot Eunice a death stare, “Poor you, I guess Mr. Bailey
has no interest in you whatsoever.” Once she had said that, Charmine dashed out of the room. She had no desire to continue arguing with them.
The rest of the supermodels were all green with envy, each of them wanting to teach Charmine a harsh lesson in return. This was especially true for Kelly Milan whose greatest desire at that moment was to lash out at Charmine and scratch her face off. Unfortunately, the Auto Show was about to begin and Anthony had given them a clear warning. Now that Charmine had the backing of the powerful Mr. Bailey, no one dared to lift a finger against her.
The atmosphere backstage felt unbearably frosty. When Tiffany thought about Anthony’s special treatment of Charmine, she felt like her heart was about to explode from jealousy. She could not help but shoot daggers at Charmine with her gaze. Veronica sent her a look of sympathy before going out to buy 12 bottles of fruit juice. She turned to everyone and said, “Let’s not stay angry any longer. It’s fate that brought us together in a working relationship. Since it is such a hot day, please have some juice to cool down. There’s only a short time left before you will all need to head to the stage.” With that, Veronica started to hand out the drinks to all the supermodels. The group of supermodels was all so furious with Charmine that Tiffany did not seem so hateful any longer by comparison. Hence, they did not refuse and accepted the juice from Veronica.
After doing the rounds, Veronica approached Charmine holding a bottle of orange juice and said...
