After divorce I am a billionaire novel Chapter 1135

Chapter 1135 Murder your own dad?

Thinking back to her words yesterday about never breaking contact with Anthony, it still felt like an invisible thorn in his heart.

Mavis opened her mouth, unsure of how to explain herself, so she changed the subject. "That's not important. Just focus on resting. Oh, and I bought the porridge you used to love on my way here today. I waited in line for a long time, so make sure you eat plenty."

Moore couldn't help but notice the evasiveness in her words but didn't want to upset her and pretended not to notice.

The atmosphere between them seemed harmonious on the surface but internally they were both struggling with their own thoughts.

In the VIP room next door:

"Did you see her bring breakfast into Moore's room?" Anthony asked Kane seriously.

He thought that after sleeping together in the hospital room yesterday afternoon, their relationship had improved somewhat. Plus he had arranged for Moore's room to be right next door for convenience sake. Yet, she still chose to visit him first which meant that Moore was more important than him in her heart.

"Yes," Kane replied indignantly. "I specifically arranged his room next door so we could keep an eye on him... I mean care for him."

Kane grumbled discontentedly.

He had been running around until midnight just to get Moore transferred to another room.

Don't ask why it was so troublesome. It was because Anthony was afraid of being falsely accused again. He insisted that Kane personally witness Moore falling asleep in the VIP ward bed before leaving.

Anthony's face turned cold and angry as if he was suppressing his rage - making Kane too scared to approach him any closer.

"Mr. Callahan," Kane continued hastily trying calm things down a bit, "Well, Moore is still an outsider after all. Mrs. Callahan will definitely have to put on a show in front of outsiders. Once the act is done, she will surely come to see you!"

Ten minutes passed without Mavis arriving; twenty minutes passed without any sign of Mavis; they waited a whole hour and there wasn't even anyone knocking at their door let alone Mavis coming by.

Kane tapped his fingers nervously against the armrests of his chair as each second ticked by making him more anxious by the minute.

"You said earlier that she would definitely come?" Anthony questioned darkly almost scaring Kane out of his wits just then with how intense he sounded.

"Don't worry Mr. Callahan! I'll go check!" Kane rushed out of the hospital ward like lightning only returning dejectedly less than a minute later saying, "Mrs. Callahan is still over there."

Anthony rubbed his forehead. Was it really so hard to leave Moore's room? What kind of magic did that room have?

He then placed a hand over his heart and instructed Kane, "Go call the doctor. Tell them my heart doesn't feel right and I need my blood pressure checked."

Kane frowned, "You're trying to fake being sick again just to get Mrs. Callahan to come over? If you keep doing this, it'll become like the boy who cried wolf."

Anthony remained silent.

Meanwhile, next door in the hospital room, Mavis sat absentmindedly peeling an apple.

For some reason, holding the apple reminded her of touching Anthony yesterday...

She groaned inwardly. When would she be able to forget about that embarrassing incident?

If only she hadn't gone into that man's hospital bed yesterday... then she wouldn't have done something so humiliating.

But really, it was all Anthony's fault for sleeping with her and not letting her touch his butt!

Lost in thought, Mavis finally found a flimsy excuse for herself, "Moore... your butt is peeled."

She handed him the apple without realizing what she had said.

"Butt?" Moore stared at her hand holding out the apple with confusion.

Did he break a bone somewhere that affected his hearing too?

"No... apple," Mavis corrected herself quickly.

It was all because of that guy! He always made her lose focus!

The silence in the hospital room became deafening as they both felt awkward about what had just happened.

"Moore," Mavis spoke up after a moment of silence. "There's something I want to discuss with you. Your body needs rest but our company also needs someone here taking care of things. So I think I should go back to Bostrain first."

Mavis's eyes glimmered with determination.

The matters at the company were delayed, and Moore had also considered things. It was best for Mavis to handle things personally by going back.

Besides, by leaving, she would naturally be farther away from Anthony.
