Chapter 938 I Don'T Have Her In My Heart

Chapter 938 I don't have her in my heart

Since the last face-to-face medication incident, Mavis had always avoided Anthony deliberately.

Anthony saw it, but did not take any action.

Paloma had already seen that something was wrong between these two.

For half a month in a row, one left early and returned late, and the other left early and returned early.

It seemed to coincide with each other to avoid each other.

They were obviously a couple, but they acted like strangers.

Paloma wanted to talk to them separately, but Mavis said she was busy with work, and Anthony

couldn't be seen at all, and went into the study when he got home, so Paloma had no chance to do

anything.

That night, the latest project in Mavis' hands was finally negotiated, and when she came back to get the

contract, she happened to run into Anthony who was coming back from work.

The two people bumped into each other abruptly. Looking at each other, they felt very embarrassed.

Mavis was the first to get out of the way on the stairs.

Anthony was about to go back to his study, but he heard Paloma shouting from downstairs, "You are all

back just in time. Let's sit down and have a meal together."

Mavis tried to speak, "Grandma, I ..."

"Don't make excuses. You two haven't had dinner at home for a long time, and you are so busy every

day. I don't believe you can get so busy."

Paloma choked back Mavis' excuse with her words.

Seeing this, Mavis nodded helplessly.

Anthony didn't speak, but turned to the dinner table.

During the meal, they ate tacitly.

Paloma kept serving Mavis food, "Mavis, you are too thin. Eat more."

"I specifically ordered them to make you your favorite crispy pork knuckle. Try it."

Mavis took a piece of crispy pork knuckle and put it in her mouth, then nodded in surprise.

"It's delicious. Thank you, grandma. You're considerate."

Paloma knew what she liked to eat.

In comparison, Anthony was the closest person to her in this family, but also the most distant person.

But that was okay. The one-year appointment was ending, and it seemed more suitable for her to let go

at the right time.

"Anthony, why are you so sad and unwilling to eat with your family?"

Anthony was suddenly asked by Paloma, and his whole face looked cold.

He was thinking about when he would be able to finish eating, and now he was sitting side by side with

Mavis, not to mention how awkward it was.

Since Paloma asked, he told the truth, "Grandma, I don't like having dinner at home very much

recently, so don't call me when you eat together in the future."

As soon as he said so, Paloma got angry and dropped the fork on the table.

There was a "snap" sound.

Everyone present was so shocked that they didn't dare to speak.

The atmosphere fell into a deadlock for a while.

Even Mavis didn't expect that Anthony hated her to such an extent that he didn't even listen to

Paloma's words.

"You're an unfilial grandson. Did we wrong you for eating? Whom do you want to eat with? Needless to

say, I can see that you don't like being at home. Are you having affairs with other women? If you mess

with any dubious women out there, do you believe that I'll risk my life to make you feel bad?"

Anthony looked at Mavis subconsciously, but said, "Must they be dubious women?"

Without holding back, he turned his head and asked Mavis in a low voice, "Did you say something to

grandma that shouldn't be said?"

Mavis opened her mouth, wanting to explain, but at the dinner table, even if she said it had nothing to

do with her, would Anthony believe it?

In order to avoid further trouble, Mavis simply did not speak.

Seeing Mavis being bullied, Paloma became even angrier.

"Can you be nice to Mavis?!"

"She is your wife after all! You don't treat her well now. Why did you bring her home? Now that you

have married her back, you should treat her well!"

"I've seen irresponsible ones, but I've never expected you to be so irresponsible. Are you my

grandson!?"

The more she talked, the more angry she became. And she almost fainted.

Fortunately, Mavis handed over a glass of water in time, allowing Paloma to calm down.

She gently patted Paloma on the back, and comforted her, "Grandma, don't be angry. It's not worth it to

get angry. Anthony, didn't you say that you still have work to do? Go to the study."

It could be seen that she was helping out, and it was meaningless for Anthony to say more, so he

simply left the dinner table.

After he left, Paloma still wanted to express something, but she opened her mouth, and finally

suppressed.

She just patted the back of Mavis' hand and kept saying, "Good girl, he really wrongs you."

Mavis smiled and shook her head, "It doesn't matter, grandma. We can solve our affairs by ourselves.

The most important thing is to take care of your health."

Rebecca couldn't help muttering beside her, "Anthony is really ignorant. I don't know what he thinks.

Mavis is such a good wife. Not many people can have such a good wife. Why..."

While talking, seeing that Paloma's face was about to change again, Rebecca held back the next

words.

Mavis can really feel a heartache.

At this moment, she still didn't know how uncomfortable she felt.

...

Lyra, who was far away from the country, received a call from Mavis, when her work hadn't finished yet.

She heard that Mavis on the other end of the phone was in a depressed mood. Even though her voice

was deliberately lowered, she can still sense it sharply.

Lyra guessed right.

"Did Anthony bully you again?"

Mavis didn't speak.

Lyra sighed, "Mavis, don't worry. Is it the same as last time?"

Mavis told her about the fact that they were drunk and slept together.

After listening, Lyra didn't know what to say.

She thought that Anthony just couldn't figure out his feelings, but she didn't expect that he didn't want

to take responsibility after sleeping with Mavis.

"Lyra, I just want to find an outlet for my emotions. It's really uncomfortable to hold back. The problem

between the two of us, I think I should solve it myself."

Even on the verge of collapse, Mavis pretended to be calm. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

She didn't want others to see through her fragility.

Now that she'd said so, Lyra can't help.

At the end of the call, Mavis gradually calmed down and asked, "Lyra, when are you going back

home?"

Lyra said, "Soon, the two children have grown up very fast recently. I am afraid that something will go

wrong without the company of the parents during the growth of the children, so I will rush back as soon

as possible."

Hearing this, Mavis felt a little envious.

The two were on a transoceanic phone call, and they hung up after chatting for a while.

Looking at the empty room, Mavis felt uncomfortable.

Anthony and Mavis were no longer being secretive now that things had broken down.

In order to avoid her, Anthony recently moved directly to the study, leaving Mavis alone in the room.

Everything Paloma had arranged before was in vain.

Paloma wanted to keep them, but no one listened to her.

She had no choice but to go back to the room while muttering "children and grandchildren have their

own blessings".

Out of sight out of mind.

It was said that the harmonious relationship between family members was more conducive to the

development of a family. Now that the family was not in harmony, Paloma always felt uneasy, and that

something serious will happen.

Late at night, the study room of Callahan Residence was still lit.

Since coming back, Jaqueline had not lost contact with Anthony.

Anthony occasionally got a call from her.

Jaqueline will share with him happy and unhappy things.

Anthony was in a mess and sat on the sofa in a daze. During this time, he would somehow think of the

absurd night with Mavis.

But as soon as he sat down, he received a call from Jaqueline.

Jaqueline on the other end of the phone had a somewhat frustrated tone, but said affectionately,

"Anthony, what have you been up to lately? Did you miss me?"
