The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 862

Chapter 862 Sharply opposed to each other

Since the last staff meeting, Anthony had called Mavis to do the most inconspicuous tasks every now and then, and will also arrange for her to clean the toilet on the top floor.

And what he said to her was tough.

For his various provocations and ridicules, Mavis was patient at first.

She didn't want the two of them to make too much trouble.

Apart from the relationship between boss and subordinate, they were still a couple.

Although they were just a couple in the agreement, she didn't want others to laugh at them and regard them as a joke.

On this day, she had just cleaned up the trash can on the top floor and sat back at her chair. She couldn't help but think of the girl in the fishing village who was beside Anthony.

That girl looked so much like Lyra, and she knew what Lyra meant to Anthony, which was something that Anthony can't touch.

She suddenly felt very tired, so tired that as if all the bones in her body felt tingling.

Leaning lazily against the table, she thought for no reason about the relationship between the two of them recently.

Now as long as they opened their mouths, they would be sharply opposed to each other.

She glanced in the direction of Anthony's office. Inside the shutters, Anthony was on the phone joyfully.

When he was in front of her, he was not happy most of the time, and she no longer knew how to get along with him.

The work all day made Mavis physically and mentally exhausted.

When it was time to get off work, she immediately left the company with her bag, and she wanted to escape from this unhappy place as soon as possible.

She stayed outside for a long time until it was dark before calling the chauffeur and telling him her location.

She had no appetite, and no desire to eat with or see Anthony.

After she returned to Callahan Residence, Rebecca and the others happened to be absent, so Mavis couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

She didn't even know how to face Rebecca's questioning now.

Although she knew that Rebecca cared about her, it made her feel stressed.

Tomorrow was the weekend, so she can rest at home. Mavis washed up early, went to bed, and fell asleep.

This was the first few days when she and Anthony started the cold war, and her haggard look had continued.

...

Over the past few days, Mavis had been very absent-minded, and anyone who was discerning can see it.

Rebecca had a keen mind. Judging from the attitude of Mavis and Anthony, she knew that there must be a conflict between the two.

She wanted to find an opportunity to ask Mavis or Anthony who had been cold-faced.

Thinking of the last time she asked Mavis about the two of them, Mavis only said that Anthony was too busy with company affairs, and she believed it that time, but this time she couldn't hide it from her.

Early on Saturday morning, Rebecca was waiting downstairs. No matter which of the two of them went downstairs first, she would ask carefully.

She came back too late last night to take the liberty of bothering Anthony and Mavis.

At around nine o'clock in the morning, Mavis came down from upstairs, and her face didn't look very good.

Rebecca hurried forward with a glass of warmed milk.

"My dear sister-in-law, have some warm milk. You have dark circles under your eyes. Did you not sleep well last night?"

Mavis was taken aback when she heard that, because it was the first time Rebecca called her that.

She smiled back, took a sip of the milk, and sat down at the dining table. And Rebecca took the opportunity to sit next to her.

"Rebecca, don't worry. I was too busy with work and have been under a lot of pressure recently."
