Mavis quietly returned to Callahan Residence after studying how to make pastry for a period of t.
No one else in Callahan Residence was there. A servant saw her enter the kitchen and asked, "Mrs. Callahan, do you need our help?" Mavis shook her head, "No need, thanks. | just want to do it myself." After the servant leave, Mavis started to work.
After closing the door of the kitchen, this was her small world. She was doing each step in an orderly manner.
After three hours of preparation, with a ding sound, a small cake in the oven was freshly baked, and the whole kitchen was filled with the aroma of it.
Looking at the small dessert with perfect color, Mavis packed it into an exquisite small box with satisfaction, and put other ready- made foods into the bags.
She prepared a cake, sushi and sother food. At the bonfire party, she was hoping that these food can catch their eyes.
Out of the kitchen, Mavis saw Anthony's figure suddenly. She didn't know when he cback and how long he stood outside the kitchen.
She took the initiative to walk over, handed him a small cake that hadn't been packed yet, and said with anticipation, "Try it. How does it taste when it's freshly baked?" If Anthony liked them all, no one else will be picky.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe little cake had already been brought to his mouth, and Anthony opened his mouth accordingly.
"Well. It tastes pretty good." After receiving his pertinent evaluation, Mavis smiled, "Then Lyra and the two kids will definitely like it too." Although Lyra said Spencer and Molly were taken away, she still made desserts for them.
"I packed everything. When are we going?" There was a look of anticipation on Mavis’ face. She was really looking forward to this party, as his girlfriend.
"Now." After saying so, Anthony naturally took the cake box in her hand and walked out. Mavis happily followed him.
After arriving the White family, the two walked side by side in the winding alleys, and within a few minutes they arrived at Lyre Spiti.
Lyra and Malcolm were standing at the door waiting for them.
Seeing Mavis, Lyra warmly greeted her and took her arm.
"Since we parted last time, I've been thinking about when we will get together. It's rare that the two little naughty ones are not around today, so we can have fun." Mavis smiled shyly, "I like the two kids very much. Momo is a clever girl, very interesting. Will they cback tonight? | made sdesserts. | don't know if it suits their appetite.” While talking, Mavis turned to Anthony and said, "Anthony, can you bringthe dessert | made?" Seeing that she brought dessert, Lyra smiled and said, "Because Spencer and Momo's teeth are not very good, our family is abstaining from sugar. But | like it very much. | secretly eat a little every time. How can any girl not like sweets?" The two smiled knowingly, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
After several people walked into the villa, Lyra tasted the dessert and teased Anthony, "I really envy someone who can have such a good fortune, and can eat such delicious cake every day. If | were a man, | would definitely marry Mavis." Hearing this, Malcolm frowned.
Was it because the food he mad was not delicious? "Rara, it seems that | will not only guard against men, but also guard against women in the future." Lyra held back her laughter, and immediately went to hold his hand, and said, "Don't worry. Even if | really have a chance to marry Mavis, you must be my primary wife." Malcolm touched the tip of her nose, feeling suffocated and speechless, while his eyes were full of love.
Seeing the love between the two as if no one else was there, Mavis was very envious.
However, she was only envious.
Lyra was so good. There should be such a good man to love her.
Anthony, who was walking beside Mavis, noticed her expression and whispered in a calm voice, "What emotions do you have? It's better not to show it here." Mavis understood and smiled immediately.
Malcolm set the bonfire in the backyard and prepared sbarbecue utensils.
Lyra held Mavis to sit on a swing in the backyard, watching the two busy men from a distance, "Tonight, you only need to be responsible for chatting and having fun. Leaving all the work to them." Mavis smiled, but there was a great sense of gap in her heart.
She was a little hesitant, but she really wanted to tell Lyra what she had encountered in the company. However, she felt that the relationship between the two was not that close, and there was no reason to confide those things to her.
"Mavis, are you not feeling well? Your complexion is not very good." Being asked by Lyra, the emotions that had been suppressed just now surged up again, and Mavis couldn't help but redden her eyes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing her like this, Lyra was a little worried, took her hand and said with concern, "What happened? Did he bully you?" Being afraid of Lyra's misunderstanding, Mavis hurriedly adjusted calmed herself down, "No Lyra. Anthony is very good to me.
I... just..." She just didn't know how to speak.
Did her really want to tell her about the trivial matters at work? Lyra patted her on the shoulder and said, "If you have anything you can't tell Anthony, you can tell me. We are all girls, so we can empathize with each other more." Mavis looked up, and just opened her lips when she saw Anthony's eyes looking over here, probably because she was afraid of what she would say.
After taking a deep breath, Mavis took the initiative to pull Lyra up and said, "Lyra, can you showaround here?" "Of course, no problem." After leaving Anthony and Malcolm, Mavis stopped, hesitated and said, "Lyra, do people have no real friends in the workplace? Does everyone intrigue? Are they trying to freach other?" This incident had more or less affected her. Mavis really didn't want to beca person who only judged others by interests.
Lyra looked at the doubt in her eyes, and said with a smile, "You have not experienced much now. Mavis, you have to understand that no one in this world will always treat you well. The workplace is like a battlefield. If you don't pay attention, you will be drawn into the abyss. In today's society, all interests cfirst.” Since she took over the Lloyd's Corp, she had seen people trying to cheat each other at the top. If she were naive, she might be completely ruined by these sophisticated people in the workplace.
"Although | don't know what difficulties you have encountered, Mavis, sometimes people who treat you well on the surface will often stab you the deepest.” Mavis listened quietly, without saying a word.
"Profits will drive them to do things that people can't understand. Don't think so much. Try to improve yourself, and stay away from the people that makes you uncomfortable.” "Okay, I'll remember this, Lyra." Although Mavis can think about these truths herself, Lyra's words can relieve her anxiety, irritability and uneasiness.
She didn't ask any more questions. Lyra didn't speak, and the two walked in the garden.
The two men had worked together to set up the barbecue grill. Anthony was acting as the cook and was grilling kebabs, and Malcolm was preparing the things needed for the bonfire party in the evening.
The aroma of meat wafted out, and Lyra's eyes lit up, "Let's go. This cumin aroma, as soon as | smell it, | know it was made by Anthony. It's still the sas when | was a child.” Mavis was taken aback.
They were childhood sweethearts and had experienced many things together since they were young. Lyra should be the person who knew Anthony best.
