Chapter 922 Paloma likes her
Back at Callahan Residence, Rebecca and Timothy were already waiting for them.
Seeing grandma getting out of the car, Rebecca trotted over, hugged grandma, and said affectionately,
"Grandma, you are finally back. I have been thinking about you these days."
Paloma scratched the tip of Rebecca's nose and joked, "Little girl, don't use these words to fool me.
Since you miss me, why don't you come and see me?"
"Hey, did I? It's because I still have some things to do, so I haven't taken time to see you."
Rebecca stuck out her tongue, a little guilty.
If Paloma knew that she hadn't done anything, she will have to listen to her nagging again.
"Don't think I don't know what kind of temperament you have. Little girl, do you want to lie to me?"
Paloma looked at Timothy, "Why you losing weight again? Anthony must have bullied you."
Anthony's face darkened when he heard his grandma mentioning him again.
Timothy hurriedly explained, "No, grandma. I'm busy with a new project during this time. Anthony is
busy with managing the company. He's the most laborious one."
"Okay grandma, don't stand outside when you just came back. I've already arranged a room for you.
Come in and have a look."
After Rebecca finished speaking, she dragged Paloma into the house.
Mavis walked behind a few people, relieved.
So far, Paloma was easy to get along with.
While thinking about things, Mavis walked behind, unknowingly falling behind the crowd.
Anthony turned his head and saw that she was absent-minded, so he stopped and asked, "You're
walking so slowly. Isn't it cold?"
Seeing his urging, Mavis quickly suppressed the emotion on her face and followed.
As soon as the two entered the door, Paloma came over and took Mavis' hand, "What are you doing
outside? I heard Rebecca said that you are a wonderful child. You have been at our home for so long,
but I haven't come to see you. It's really my fault."
Mavis hurriedly waved her hands, "Grandma, it's not like that. Your body has not recovered. It should
be us who go to see you. It's wrong for us juniors."
Paloma liked Mavis very much when she saw Mavis being humble, polite and not arrogant.
"Mavis, I heard from Rebecca that you and Anthony are both working in the Callahan Group now? You
are still working as his assistant. Don't worry. You can do this job if you want. If you don't want to, you
can stay at home. Our family can support you."
Seeing the enthusiasm from Paloma, Mavis smiled, "Grandma, I know your kindness, but I think people
always have something to do, not to mention I don't want Anthony to support me. I have the ability to
be his helper."
Hearing this, Paloma liked Mavis more.
"You are very thoughtful. Can you go out with me tomorrow? Rebecca will follow along."
Mavis would not refuse Paloma's proposal.
It was rare that Paloma liked her very much, and she couldn't ask for more, "Oaky, grandma."
"I'm going upstairs to rest. You can go about your business."
After waving to the juniors, Paloma went straight upstairs.
Huh--
Mavis let out a long breath, and the tension in her heart slowly disappeared.
Rebecca walked over, stood next to Mavis, and said with a smile, "I didn't lie to you, Mavis. I have said
grandma would like you."
"I thought grandma would be the kind who is very serious and pays attention to the rules and family
status."
After listening to Mavis' words, Rebecca burst out laughing.
"Mavis, I think you have been affected by the plots on the Internet and in TV shows, right?"
Mavis was a little embarrassed, "Rebecca, I 'm going to rest first. I'm a little tired." Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
After speaking, Mavis went upstairs.
After Anthony sent Paloma back to her room, he left to deal with the company's affairs.
Mavis sat blankly by the bed, thinking about what happened today.
"If you like kids, have them."
These words lingered in her ears and could not go away for a long time.
Until now, she hadn't figured out what Anthony meant.
She was lying on the bed distraught. Her whole body was covered by the quilt.
She didn't know how long it took, but Mavis fell asleep in a disturbed mood, which was extremely
restless.
She inexplicably dreamed that the one-year engagement time had come, and a newcomer appeared
beside him, and he announced the identity of that woman on various social platforms.
The way he looked at the woman was full of love, without any disgust, and it was something she never
got.
"Hoo-hoo--"
Mavis was awake from the dream.
The pain in the heart, as if being pinched severely, even made her breathing difficult.
Was the dream reminding her?
Did it want to tell her that she won't end good with Anthony?
Knock knock--
There was a knock on the door. Mavis quickly calmed down and walked quickly to the door.
Outside was Rebecca.
"Mavis, grandma is going out for a walk. Let's go together. Timothy will be the driver."
Mavis agreed, "Okay, I'll change clothes."
She put on a more dignified dress. As the daughter-in-law of the Callahan family, she should be more
dignified when she went out with Paloma.
Paloma was already waiting downstairs, and Mavis hurried over.
"Sorry grandma for keeping you waiting."
Paloma waved her hand, "You don't have to be too polite to me. I heard from Rebecca that you were
injured before. Are you all right now? Don't underestimate the injury, so as not to leave sequelae."
Mavis felt warm and shook her head, "Don't worry, grandma. I'm fine now. Anthony asked his friend to
come over and heal me. I'm fine soon."
"He is doing pretty well. Let's go out for a stroll."
Paloma was always happy to have their children and grandchildren by her side.
Paloma was in high spirits and kept talking about her youthful past along the way.
Mavis didn't expect the life of Paloma to be so colorful. Compared with her, she seemed like an elderly
person.
Seeing Mavis distracted, Paloma raised her hand and waved in front of her eyes, "What's wrong? Are
you feeling unwell?"
Fearing that Paloma would take her to the hospital for an examination, Mavis hurriedly shook her head,
"It's okay, grandma. I may have just woken up and I'm a little confused. It's okay."
"That's good. To live is to be happy. Don't think about carrying the pressure on your body. I'm at such
an old age. I have seen many things. As long as I live happily, all difficulties are just a piece of cake."
"I know, grandma."
Soon they came to the shopping mall of Callahan Group. Paloma put on sunglasses before getting out
of the car, walking with full aura of an aristocratic matriarch.
Today was just in time for the shopping mall celebration, and there were many people in the mall, which
was very noisy.
Rebecca whispered, "Grandma, if we want to go shopping, we can ask Anthony to clear everyone out
in advance."
As soon as she finished speaking, she received a fist from Paloma.
"What's the fun in clearing people out? Can that still be called shopping? You've always wanted to use
power to solve things."
