The sound of splashing water came from the bathroom. Mavis took off her dirty skirt and stepped into
the bathtub.
The warm water washed over her body, washing away all the fatigue and unhappiness of today.
Leaning lazily in the bathtub, she accidentally saw the bathrobe he had left at home.
Obviously they can spend tonight happily...
After a while, a thick fog rose in the bathroom, covering the expression on her face.
After soaking in the bath, Mavis came out in his bathrobe and threw herself on the bed, smlling greedily Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
his pillow.
It pillow still smelled like Anthony.
She looked at the ceiling, trying to sleep and forget the unhappy things, but sleepiness seemed to be
against her. She was not sleepy at all.
She was used to having Anthony by her side, used to sleeping with the sound of his breathing, used to
his arms, his chest.
Today, the night was too quiet.
In the end, when it was dawn, she barely fell asleep.
After the alarm rang in the morning, Mavis sat up from the bed in an instant, dressed quickly and went
downstairs, as if someone was urging her to do something.
"Mavis ..."
Before Rebecca could finish her next word, Mavis had already run out of Callahan Residence.
It seemed that as long as she was busy, she will not think about those unhappy things.
Squeezing herself in the crowd in subway and bus, she finally finished clocking in at work before nine
o'clock.
Panting, Mavis came to her table and sat down, suddenly realizing that now that Anthony was away, no
one would arrange tasks for her.
Her position was Anthony's personal assistant, which was different from other assistants.
She got up and went to Anthony's office, watered the plants in the office as usual, and packed the
things on his desk.
There were still unclosed documents on his desk, which can also prove that the departure was sudden,
because Anthony had always been a person who loved to organize and store.
After tidying up everything, Mavis took the elevator down from the top floor, and all the company
employees were surprised to see her listless look.
Some people started talking.
"Didn't she commute with Mr. Callahan all the time? Why did she leave so early today? It seems that
she hasn't seen Mr. Callahan since she got off work yesterday."
"Who knows, a person as outstanding as Mr. Callahan has many suitors, let alone capable women. It is
very difficult for someone like her to win Mr. Callahan's heart."
Mavis paused slightly when she heard their discussion, feeling depressed.
After leaving the company, she walked down the street in a daze, recalling the conversation of those
few people just now.
Yeah, they were right. If she had powers like Lyra's, she could help him, and he wouldn't have to fight
alone.
Anthony will fall in love with her within this time.
Even if they became strangers later on, she won't blame him, but she just blamed her lack of ability to
stand side by side with him.
After wandering outside for a long time, Mavis found that she had nowhere to go except Callahan
Residence.
When she went back home, she happened to meet Rebecca for dinner.
Seeing that Mavis came back so early, Rebecca hurriedly said enthusiastically, "Mavis, you are back.
Are you busy today? Come and eat together. Today I asked the chief to prepare your favorite food..."
After hearing what she said, Mavis went upstairs as if she didn't see Rebecca.
Seeing this situation, Rebecca shook her head helplessly, sighed and murmured, "Oh, Anthony, hurry
up and come back, or Mavis will fall in lovesickness."
After returning to the room, Mavis sat blankly by the desk, which was full of books Anthony was
reading.
Anthony would read books for an hour every night before bed.
Mavis directly picked up the top book and read it.
After reading a few pages, she gave up.
Among Anthony's books, there were many things she can't understand, a lot of strange symbols, and
even a lot of fallacies that she can't figure out.
"This..."
Not reconciled, she flipped through other books, and the other books were more abstruse.
Mavis never thought the reality would be so unacceptable.
Even if she knew the difference between herself and him, she never thought that the difference was so
great that the distance between them could not be shortened even with efforts.
"Perhaps... we are really not from the same world..."
She hugged the books with a desolate expression and remained silent.
After being at home for three days, Mavis was waiting for Anthony's news every day, but no news came
every day.
Mavis remembered what he said. No matter how worried she was, she didn't dare to disturb him rashly.
Thump thump--
Someone was knocking on the door, and Rebecca asked, "Mavis, are you okay? Do you want to go out
and relax? I know an interesting place. May I take you there?"
A worried look appeared on Rebecca's face. In the past three days, Mavis locked herself in the room
except for eating, and did not come out to talk to anyone. She was really afraid that something would
happen to Mavis.
Squeak-
The door opened from the inside, and Mavis made a fake smile, "I'm fine, Rebecca. I'll go out for a walk
later. If you have something to do, go and do it."
Looking at her like this, how can Rebecca not be worried?
"Mavis, let me take you out for fun, just vent your emotions."
Rebecca's eyes were full of worry, and she really regarded her as family.
Mavis shook her head, "It's really okay. I'll go out in a while."
"Okay, then I'll ask the driver to take you there later. Let me know when you'll come back. I'll pick you
up in person. Don't refuse."
Mavis smiled and nodded. Rebecca was really the same as Anthony. She was domineering when she
was nice to people.
After Rebecca left, Mavis opened the curtains of the room, allowing the glare of sunlight to shine in,
dispelling the darkness in the room.
She stood under the sun, and the sun seemed to warm her up a little bit.
After a brief wash, putting on light clothes and a baseball cap, Mavis left Callahan Residence.
The driver asked, "Ma'am, where are we going?"
Where to go?
Mavis didn't know either.
"Wherever."
The driver was taken aback by what she said. Seeing that she had closed her eyes, he didn't dare to
ask any more questions, so he could only drive the luxury car more smoothly.
Today's weather was very good. The driver opened the car window slightly, and the breeze came in
along the window.
Mavis only felt that this kind of wind was very comfortable. When she opened her eyes, what she saw
was lush green, which gave people a very energetic feeling.
It was early autumn now, and the wind outside was still a bit chilly.
When passing by a lake, she heard the laughter of children by the lake. Mavis couldn't help being
attracted by the sound, "Just stop here. You can go back first. Don't wait for me."
After getting out of the car, Mavis walked towards the lake.
The driver stopped the car worriedly and watched Mavis' movements all the time.
Fortunately, Mavis just sat on the grass and watched the children laughing and playing in front of her.
She liked this scene very much.
Boom.
A football hit her leg, and a five or six-year-old boy came over and said apologetically, "I'm sorry. Did it
you hurt your leg?"
