Lyra stared at him strangely, "Why do you think that the baby in Mavis' belly belongs to a wild man?"
Anthony leaned against the wall. His enchanting eyes looked lazy, and he laughed at himself, "Isn't it incredible? Maybe this is my fate."
In the future, he will have to raise an illegitimate child for Mavis.
He can't get rid of the shackles of being associated with an illegitimate child for a lifetime.
Lyra and Malcolm looked at each other, feeling more and more that there was something wrong with Anthony's mind.
After taking a few glances at Anthony who looked like he had drunk fake wine and gave up on himself, Malcolm asked calmly, "Anthony, she is your wife. Why do you distrust her so much and think she will cheat on you?"
Anthony looked away, didn't speak, and didn't pay attention to it.
Lyra shook her head repeatedly.
At the beginning, Mavis went to Crana all the way from the small country Teflayria for him. After chasing him for five years, she was able to let him pay attention to her and she married him.
How could it be possible for such a persistent girl to easily be with another man and conceive the other man's child after being emotionally hurt?
Had Anthony's brain been taken out by Jaqueline who was dead?
The more Lyra thought about it, the more angry she was, and she pulled Malcolm away, "I think he's really out of his mind. He needs to suffer a little bit, sober up, and I'll pick him up tomorrow."
Malcolm didn't say anything, but let his wife drag him away.
Anthony didn't even look at the couple. He closed his eyes and leaned against the wall to rest. He really needed to calm down and make sure to face Mavis and the bastard in her belly in what state.
...
When Lyra and Malcolm walked out of the police station, Mavis waited outside, pacing back and forth.
Not seeing Anthony, she immediately stepped forward and asked, "Why didn't he come out with you?"
Lyra said, "Leave him alone. He'll be fine. Let him suffer a bit in there, and he should come out tomorrow night."
Although she didn't see Anthony, Mavis was relieved to be sure that Anthony was safe and hadn't been embarrassed by the police inside.
"It's okay. He has a bad temper. In front of so many people, he rushed up and beat Gawain violently. He really should suffer a little bit and change his temper."
Touching her abdomen with one hand, Mavis was a little tired after standing for a long time.
After all, Lyra was pregnant before, and seeing that she was not in good condition, she helped her into the car. "Take care of yourself first. You are pregnant, so don't worry about it."
Then, they alll got into the car.
When the luxury car gradually left the police station, Lyra asked, "Mavis, Anthony suspects that the baby in your belly is not his. Do you know about this?"
Mavis didn't hide anymore, "I know. I told him this, and he didn't doubt it."
At the end, she lowered her eyes sadly, hiding a little disappointment in her eyes.
Despite hiding her emotions, she was noticed by Lyra.
Lyra patted the back of her hand to reassure her. "He's a bit paranoid. If he gets angry, he'll be very extreme. You should be more careful during pregnancy, and you shouldn't irritate him with such words."
Having seen Anthony go crazy, Lyra was worried about her.
She understood Lyra's concerns, and sighed, "It's not because of angering him, but because I don't want to get entangled. Now I just want to get a divorce and return to Teflayria with my child."
"I don't need a husband anymore. God has given me a baby. I am already very content."
Anthony hadn't fully seen his true heart yet, to which Lyra supported her.
"You can do whatever you want. I know that you have considered it after careful consideration. However, you must also pay attention to safety, especially Anthony. If you really don't intend to tell him the truth, then stay away from him and don't approach him again. Before he is out of the police station, leave the manor as soon as possible."
Lyra was well aware of how dangerous Anthony can be when he was paranoid, but Mavis wasn't, so she had to make it clear to her.
She didn't know how much Mavis listened to, but Mavis nodded absent-mindedly. "Understood. Don't worry. I will protect the baby and prevent the baby from any harm."
It was fine to leave the manor, except that she hadn't found a good place now, and moving her luggage was also troublesome.
As long as she walked around when she saw Anthony in the future, Anthony will give up pestering her after a long time, right?
It was late and the temperature dropped sharply, making people feel a bit cold.
