Mavis glanced at Anthony and said nothing.
On the contrary, Anthony chuckled, "Nothing happened to us before. It's all your fuss."
As he said, he wrapped his arms around Mavis' waist and behaved intimately.
Confused by his sudden behavior, Mavis had not recovered her senses yet, and Anthony had already dragged her upstairs.
Back in the bedroom, Anthony made the bed by himself.
Mavis stood by, watching him, blankly.
Knock Knock Knock---
There was a knock on the door. Mavis hurried over to open the door, and saw Rebecca holding a box, followed by two servants, also holding things in their hands.
She had a smile on her face, "Anthony, I brought back all Mavis' things. Do you think there is anything else I need to do?"
Mavis' expression froze a bit. She didn't expect Rebecca to be so fast, and she hadn't recovered from what happened just now.
Anthony took the things, "Well, clean that guest room. Spencer and Molly will live in it tomorrow night."
When she heard that the two kids were coming, Rebecca was even more excited. "Okay, okay, I'll take someone to buy some things for them. With them, the house will be lively."
Before Anthony could say anything, she left.
After Rebecca left, Anthony fixed the sofa.
Seeing that Mavis was still standing there in a daze, he said casually, "Tonight you sleep on the bed, and I sleep on the sofa."
"You…"
Being watched by her all the time, Anthony felt a little unnatural, and touched the tip of his nose, "You haven't recovered yet, so you can't sleep on the sofa."
Just for this reason?
Mavis couldn't believe it.
"Don't worry. I won't take advantage of you."
"..."
Mavis' face turned hot instantly.
What was he thinking about!?
It was as if she was thinking something weird!
Mavis glared at him angrily, but said nothing.
--
9 p. m.
After dinner, Mavis hesitated to go upstairs. Rebecca touched her shoulder with a smirk.
"Mavis, Anthony has been going up for a long time. Why don't you go upstairs? Are you shy?"
Mavis lowered her eyes, "I just... eat too much at night, just to digest."
"Oh, with half a bowl of rice, so that means you eat too much?"
Rebecca's words trailed off, which made Mavis even more embarrassed.
"You... you go to bed early. I will go up first."
Mavis almost fled from the living room.
The smile on Rebecca's face couldn't be hidden. Timothy took a sip of tea, and said lightly, "You always like to meddle in the affairs of the young couple. Be careful..."
Before Timothy could finish speaking, Rebecca interrupted him quickly.
"Come on, Timothy. Don't lecture me. Hurry up and get yourself a girlfriend. You know how much grandma expects from you. She wants to see her future great-grandchildren. Hurry up."

On the other side, Mavis went back to the bedroom and went straight into the bathroom.
Hot water rushing down, the dense water vapor filled the entire bathroom.
In the past, the washing time was around fifteen minutes, but this time, Mavis stayed in the bathroom for almost an hour.
Her long hair was half dry, casually draped over her shoulders. Her new pajamas had the Pikachu pattern, which was bought by her last time. It was very cute.
She walked lightly to the bed.
Anthony was reading a newspaper on the sofa.
After sneaking a glance at him, she quickly got into bed and buried her entire face under the quilt, only revealing a touch of golden hair outside.
Seeing that she was going to sleep, Anthony went to turn off the lights.
The room darkened, and Mavis slowly poked her head out of the quilt.
Phew--
Staying in the same room with him, she felt that the air became thinner, and she couldn't breathe.
