"Our marriage may not have been dissolved yet, but everyone needs their own personal space, and I'm no exception. Plus, I don't want to tell you," she said bluntly and a little painfully.
Anthony's blue eyes flashed with coldness, but he didn't continue to argue. "I'll have Kane take you."
"No need. I can take a taxi myself," Mavis replied in a cold tone before leaving the hospital room.
Despite several failed divorces and even sleeping together once after Anthony got drunk, their relationship seemed to become more distant and subtle.
After leaving the hospital, Mavis went straight to the airport by taxi without knowing that Anthony had received a call from Kane right after she left.
"Mr. Callahan, she just arrived at the airport. It seems like she's here to pick someone up."
Anthony's voice was dark as he replied, "Keep following her."
Mavis walked into the airport lobby without heading towards the arrival gate. Instead she went straight to the business lounge. Kane silently followed her and saw something that shocked him through the glass door of the lounge.
The person who met with Mavis was indeed a man - thin build with an average height of about 5'8". From Kane's perspective, he could only see his profile which showed off his high nose bridge giving him an air of elegance.
As soon as he saw Mavis approaching him, he stood up for a big hug while smiling broadly as if they were very close friends or lovers.
Kane almost dropped his jaw in shock. Mavis was actually having an affair!
While still stunned by what he had seen through the glass door of business lounge, he secretly took photos of them hugging on his phone before sending it over to Anthony.
Meanwhile, Mavis took initiative in picking up Raymond's luggage while they both walked out together towards exit direction. Kane hurriedly followed behind them.
When they got out of the airport, Mavis asked Raymond, "What do you want for lunch? I'll go check out nearby market."
Raymond playfully grabbed her arm saying, "I'm not picky eater. Whatever you cook is good enough for me!"
"Okay then , I'll make something simple. I have something else this afternoon so probably won't be back until late tonight. You can cook yourself if you get hungry. This is apartment key. Don't wander around too much."
"I know, I know. Let's go buy groceries now. I haven't eaten your cooking for so long. It makes me drool!" Raymond exclaimed excitedly.
Mavis couldn't help but smile and lightly pushed his forehead with her finger, "You, I really have no way to deal with you."
The two of them didn't immediately return to the apartment, but went to the market to buy groceries.
Kane sat in the car, silently rolling up the window and letting out a deep sigh.
No wonder he spoke so highly of Anthony in front of Mavis and she didn't react at all.
The natural feeling in their conversation suggested that they had a good relationship and had known each other for a while.
He thought for a moment, then took out his phone again and messaged Anthony.
Kane said, "Mrs. Callahan took that man back to Green Grove Apartment and even gave him the key to her own single apartment."
Although Anthony bought the entire building and wrote Mavis's name on it, Mavis could have arranged a different single apartment for Raymond, just like she did for Moore.
However, she gave her own apartment to Raymond. Were they planning to secretly cohabit behind Anthony's back?
Was Anthony going to be stuck being cheated on forever? Kane felt that things were not simple as he thought, and his hands didn't stop typing on the keyboard.
Kane said, "Mr. Callahan, have you received that photo? I just saw the man's face clearly, and he looks quite handsome. He even knows how to hold Mrs. Callahan's wrist and act affectionate!!]
Kane said, "Is it because Mrs. Callahan was once heartbroken by you that she has changed her preference in partners? It seems like she now likes younger men!"
Kane said, "Mr. Callahan, what should I do now? Should I continue following or come back to guard you?"
There had been no response or message from Anthony's side.
But Kane didn't believe that he hadn't seen the messages and the secret photos he had sent. Instead, he suspected that Anthony might have had a heart attack right on the spot from anger.
