The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin)

Chapter 949 She Returns



Chapter 949 She returns

The contestants on the stage competed nervously, and the parents in the audience were very anxious.

There was a lot of discussion underneath, saying everything.

Some were worried that their children will not perform well, and they were even more nervous than the players.

Some parents already knew that their children will definitely not get grades, so they simply chatted and thought about what to eat for dinner.

Lyra was the quietest of the three, and didn't say a few words from the beginning to the end.

The preliminary round ended quickly, and ten children were selected from them to participate in the semi-finals a week later, and Spencer was among them.

Some people were not convinced, saying that Spencer must have called in favours.

Spencer more or less heard the discussion on the stage, so he asked the host to have another question for him.

He answered in an orderly manner, and his speed was amazing.

Now, he let everyone shut up.

This was his strength.

On the way back, Spencer was in a good mood, and Lyra was also in a good mood.

However, Spencer asked exactly the same thing as Molly.

"Mommy, aren't you busy with work?"

Lyra smiled helplessly, "I don't want to miss the wonderful moments of your growing up."

Malcolm laughed.

Mavis looked at the happy family of three, full of longing for something in her heart. She thought, if her child was born, it would be as cute as Spencer and Molly, right? Will Anthony treat her better?

How wonderful it was for a family of three to be together.

Mavis decided to return home tomorrow and told Anthony about her pregnancy.

Procrastinating was irresponsible to the child.

As everyone knew, the Callahan family was already in dire straits.

Anthony disappeared for more than half a month, and finally returned home at night.

When Paloma saw him, she didn't say anything, but still held grudges.

During dinner, Paloma still didn't say anything, but while eating, she suddenly became out of breath and had a heart attack.

It was a wise choice for Rebecca to have the medicine prepared in advance. Paloma stabilized her mood after taking the medicine, but she shouted,

"Let him get out. Let this unfilial grandson get out of here! Our family don't want such a shameful grandson!"

As Anthony heard it, he knew that the matter of bringing Jaqueline back had been known by the family, but he did not explain anything.

Paloma was in a fit of anger. He was afraid that what he said would cause her to have a heart attack again, so he simply didn't visit Paloma.

The next morning, Anthony went out early to avoid running into his family.

However, Paloma at home began to figure it out.

If Anthony was allowed to continue to make trouble, the company may lose to him.

There must be a solution.

Here, before one problem is was, another problem arose.

Because, Mavis was back.

The moment Mavis entered Callahan Residence, Paloma felt very uncomfortable.

"Mavis, you didn't tell me in advance when you would come back, so I can ask someone to pick you up."

Mavis smiled, felt the kindness of the old lady, and was in a good mood.

However, before learning about Anthony's attitude, Mavis decided not to tell her about the baby.

Mavis smiled as she took out the gift, "Grandma, this is a gift I bought for you. I have to go to the company in a while. After all, this is a business trip, and some work needs to be explained." Hearing that she was going to work, Rebecca clutched the old lady's clothes nervously.

Paloma didn't hold back and didn't look well.

Originally, she planned to meet Jaqueline at the company today, but she didn't expect Mavis to come back first.

Mavis sensed something was wrong, "What's wrong with you...?"

Rebecca was about to speak, but was stopped by Paloma.

Paloma pinched Rebecca's wrist, "Mavis, can you take us with you to the company? I haven't been to the company for a long time, and I want to see it."

Mavis had no other thoughts. Thinking that Paloma was too embarrassed to speak out, she agreed.

On the way to the company by car, Mavis was in a good mood, but Paloma and Rebecca had very heavy mood.

The road was fairly smooth, and there were not too many cars, so they arrived at the company very quickly.

"Grandma, Rebecca, take a look around first. I have to hand over the work first, and I'll come down to find you later."

With that said, Mavis took the documents and walked upstairs.

Rebecca wanted to stop it, but Paloma signaled that she didn't need it.

Sooner or later, she would have to know.

It was better to know sooner than later.

Mavis went straight to Anthony's office, and just after knocking on the door, she saw Zack coming from the corridor, holding two cups of hand-ground coffee.

Seeing Mavis, Zack was taken aback for a moment, then smiled awkwardly, "When did you come back?"

Mavis said, "Just got off the plane and came here non-stop. Why did you bring two cups of coffee? Who else is in the office? An important client?" Zack didn't know how to answer.

At this time, the door of the office opened.

Jaqueline wore her badge and rushed out the door excitedly.

Who knew that as soon as she came out, she confronted Mavis.

She froze in place for an instant.

At the same time, Mavis was also stunned.

No one expected to meet again at such a time and in such a place.

Anthony in the office was the first to be distracted. "Jaqueline, what's wrong?"

When he came to the door and saw Mavis, Anthony was stunned for a moment, but there was no superfluous expression on his face, and he even pretended to be indifferent.

"Just came back?"

Mavis didn't answer, but asked directly, "Why is she here? When did she come?"

Mavis never acted like a hostess.

Seeing this, Zack hurried forward to make a rescue.

"It was her fishing village that was attacked, and her relatives were gone. Mr. Callahan took pity on her and let her stay here. Now she works in the business department of our company." Business department?

It was really a good department with a lot of benefits.

Mavis was angry from it, but she couldn't lose her temper.

Grandma was still in the company. If there was a big trouble, it may not end well.

What should she do now?

She looked down at her stomach and sneered in her heart.

She shouldn't have expected anything from him. She still fantasized about the happy life of the family after having a child.

The greater the hope was, the greater the disappointment was.

She suppressed her sadness, but heard Jaqueline greet her cheerfully, "Hello, Mavis, I hope you will take care of me in the future." Saying that, she stretched out her hand.

Mavis took one look, refused to shake her hand, and passed by holding the documents.

"I've already negotiated about the foreign project, and there are still a few contract terms that need to be explained to the other party..."

Mavis was already sitting in the reception chair in front of the desk, so Anthony could only let Jaqueline go back first.

Zack brought the coffee into the office anyway.

It was just that people who drank coffee had changed from Jaqueline to Mavis.

Looking at the coffee in front of her, Mavis couldn't help sneering. Why should she take it when others didn't want?

Anthony didn't mention work, but asked her in an awkward tone, "Jaqueline wanted to shake hands with you just now. Why didn't you respond? Did you look down on her?"

Mavis was stunned, and shook her head with a wry smile. "What are you talking about? I'm talking about work with you now, and I'm not in the mood to talk about those personal grievances." "This is the document, and it has been marked red. You can read it yourself."

She pushed the file over, turned around and wanted to leave.

After walking a few steps, she turned her head again. When she was looking at Anthony's handsome face, her heart was filled with jealousy and sadness.

"Anthony, I am a person with feelings. Before you do anything, should you consider my feelings?"
