The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 840

Anthony carried her upstairs with an undeniable seriousness on his face.

Back in the bedroom, Anthony didn't speak, just took a shower and lay down on the bed as usual.

Mavis sat on the sofa, looked at him, hesitated and said, "Tonight...I'll sleep on the sofa. Can I trouble you to get the quilt for me?"

Her calf really hurt badly. If she went to get the quilt by herself, she might fall down, and she was afraid it will make him unhappy.

Anthony stopped, walked straight to Mavis, picked her up by the waist and put her on the bed.

Mavis hurriedly stood up on her feet, "I... I haven't take a shower."

During this day, she didn't have time to change out of the dirty clothes, which should smell of blood.

"Troublesome."

Anthony's blue eyes narrowed slightly. With a look of impatience on his face, he got up again and carried her to the bathroom.

After entering the bathroom, he didn't leave for a long time. Mavis swallowed nervously and stammered, "Well... I... just wash it myself."

"Well, wash and go to bed."

After saying this coldly, Anthony finally walked out of the bathroom.

Only then did Mavis dare to take off her clothes, and only then did she see the injury on her calf. Although it was wrapped in gauze, the blood still oozed out.

Fortunately, when she was packing up her things last time, she put a medicine box in the bathroom just for emergencies, but she didn't expect it to come in handy now.

Hiss...

It hurt.

The gauze had already stuck to the wound, so it could only be torn off while wetting it with water.

The sound of rushing water in the bathroom concealed Mavis' painful hissing.

She bit her lip tightly, not letting herself make a sound.

After taking a shower and bandaging the wound, she stayed in the bathroom for a while, deliberately prolonging the time in the bathroom.

She hoped he can fall asleep when she went out.

After about half an hour, Mavis walked out of the bathroom slowly.

Unexpectedly, the moment she opened the door, she almost bumped into Anthony's strong chest.

He... He had been waiting at the door?

Before Mavis could speak, he grabbed her with a big hand and carried her in his arms.

He went back to bed and turned off the light, and took her into his arms again.

A series of actions was done smoothly, without a trace of procrastination.

Mavis' back was tightly pressed against his chest, and she could clearly hear the sound of his heartbeat, which was strong and powerful.

His hand was still on her waist, and the distance between them was very close.

Soon there was the sound of even breathing and slight snoring, but Mavis didn't feel sleepy at all.

Even though the two had an unpleasant fight in the parking lot, why did they return to Callahan Residence as if nothing had happened?

When he called her wife, did he really regard her as his wife?

She didn't know, and didn't dare to expect too much.

After all, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Lowering her expectations was to reduce disappointment.

Forget it. She should not think about it.
