The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 757

At dinner time, Callahan Residence.

The three people all waited at the dining table, and Mavis didn't come back.

Rebecca was a little suspicious, "Anthony, didn't you pick up Mavis today? Why hasn't Mavis come back yet?"

Anthony's face looked heavy. No one knew what he was thinking. "I have something to do today, so I went home early."

"This is your fault. What could be more important than picking up your wife from work?" Timothy complained.

Rebecca also said, "Anthony, Mavis came to our home not long ago and is not familiar with this place at all. Did she go home by herself and get lost by accident?"

Anthony looked grim, kept looking at his watch, and said nothing.

The three siblings waited for another twenty minutes.

Seeing that it was getting dark and Mavis hadn't come back, Rebecca was anxious.

"Anthony, you're going too far. You don't pick up your wife from work. She hasn't come back yet. The food is cold, but you're not anxious."

Anthony looked at his watch again, but still didn't speak.

Rebecca took out her phone and called Mavis.

"Anthony, Mavis's phone is off and can't get through. Will something happen to her!?"

Timothy looked at the sky outside and said coldly, "It's getting dark quickly today and it's overcast. It looks like it's going to rain. If it really rains, the way back to home will be even harder to find."

Now Anthony couldn't sit still, got up suddenly, and took a few steps out of the dinning room.

Rebecca got up immediately and wanted to find Mavis together, but was stopped by Timothy.

"Don't follow along and cause trouble. The couple seems to be quarreling. They have to talk about it themselves. You will affect them by your side."

It made sense.

Rebecca had to give up and looked worriedly at the rain outside the window.

...

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, the dark sky was extremely oppressive. Under the street lights, one could see the fine rain.

Anthony held an umbrella and went all the way from home to look for her.

No car, no bodyguards, only a mobile phone.

Along the way, he hoped that the familiar figure would appear in his line of sight, but there was none.

If he can't find Mavis tonight, he will just call the police.

Thinking bitterly, Anthony looked at the time on his watch while holding an umbrella and walked faster unconsciously.

Along the road out of Callahan Residence, there was no one under the dim lights.

This was not the way to find her.

Anthony took out his phone and called Zack.

Zack was shocked on the spot.

"Mr. Callahan, hasn't Madam returned home yet? How could it be... She clearly left the company shortly after work."

Anthony said coldly, "Tell me what happened before you get off work."

"I saw she was waiting for you in the underground parking, so I went up to tell her that you won't come to the company today, and asked her to take my car home, but she refused. I saw that she got out of the building."

She went out from the first floor of the building, either by taxi or by bus.

Anthony pondered carefully. With Mavis's economic conditions, most of the time she would want to take the bus back by herself.

Stupid, so stupid.

His eyes looked heavy, and he was very upset.

Obviously there were ready-made cars to ride, but she had to cram onto the bus by herself. What was she thinking?

Not wanting to complain more, Anthony immediately ordered, "Check which buses she will take, and give me the most likely routes for her return to Callahan Residence."

"Yes."

Zack's efficiency had always been great.

Within minutes, Anthony's phone received a Zack's message.

The three closest bus-to-subway routes back to Callahan Residence were clearly listed by Zack.

Anthony took a quick look and found that no matter which bus route she took, she would end up taking the same subway. The nearest subway station was three kilometers away from Callahan Residence.
