    Chapter 1066 That''s Not Bullying. That''s...


    The man behind her ignored her using gaze and snatched her phone without a word.


    "You, you give it back to me!"


    Moore quickly realized something was wrong on the phone, "Mavis, is there someone next to you?"


    Mavis went to snatch the phone, but before she could say anything on the line, Anthony had already


    put the receiver to his ear.


    "Who are you?"


    He questioned with a calm voice.


    Moore was stunned, "Who are you? I am Mavis''s boyfriend, and if you hurt her, I will not let you go!"


    Mavis was confused.


    "Boyfriend?"


    Anthony furrowed his brows, a chill rising in the depths of his eyes, and a smirk tugging at the corners


    of his lips. "How coincidental! I am her husband."


    "You, you are..."


    The phone was hung up by Anthony.


    He grabbed Mavis'' wrist again and looked down at her, questioning, "Boyfriend, really?"


    Mavis avoided eye contact with him, her gaze dodging andcking confidence. "This has nothing to do


    with you," she said.


    "What do you mean? From what I heard on the phone just now, are you nning to take our son over


    there and raise him with that man?"


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    Heughed in anger, "I''m not even dead yet and you''re already looking for a stepfather for our son? Or


    was it because of him that you faked your death and left?"


    What did this have to do with anything?


    Mavis couldn''t understand his thought process, but she didn''t want to exin either because she felt


    the same jealousy in her heart and was very unhappy.


    "Why should I exin to you? It was clearly you who ignored the care of our son for those women and


    even wanted to find him a stepmother. What right do you have to question me? And why are you


    staring at me with such a scrutinizing gaze as if I''m a criminal?"


    Anthonyughed again, "Which women? When did I ever say I wanted to find a stepmother for our


    son?"


    Mavis was toozy to argue with him, "It''s up to you whether you acknowledge it or not. Anyway, you


    haven''t changed in all these years."


    When Jaqueline was brought into the Cahan Group, almost all employees could see that there was


    something more than just a professional rtionship between Anthony and Jaqueline. They could tell


    that Anthony seemed to have feelings for Jaqueline.


    Except for Anthony himself who denied it and insisted that she was like his sister.


    Well, a scumbag was just someone who had many younger sisters.


    Her heart was cold, and she looked away towards the "exit" sign in the corner.


    Anthony pulled her forward and said, "We need evidence for everything. Don''t go around using


    people without proof."


    "It''s none of my business. Please talk about the divorce and child custody issues, Mr. Cahan."


    Anthony closed his eyes, and tightened his hands around her waist, "I will talk to you, but not now, let''s


    go home first."


    "Go... go home? Huh?"


    Before she could react, the man suddenly bent down, carried her on his shoulder and took her away.


    The pressure on her abdomen was unbearable, and her head was spinning. She struggled frantically


    and punched Anthony''s waist and back with fists.


    "Put me down!"


    Anthony stopped, and actually put her down this time. Surprisingly obedient?


    However, Mavis''s thoughts were shattered as soon as they came into being. Anthony grabbed her with


    one hand, pulled off the dark tie with one hand, and neatly tied her hands to prevent her from struggling


    too much before carrying her on his shoulder again.


    Mavis was so angry that her chest was about to explode, "Are you crazy? Let go of me!"


    Always acting stubbornly, only caring about his own happiness without any regard for her feelings.


    Anthony ignored herpletely, his arm wrapped around her knee pit to prevent her from struggling


    and getting hurt.


    Alistair was stunned to see the two of them return to the waiting room looking like this.


    "Daddy, don''t bully mommy! Daddy, you''re bad!"


    Anthony nced at his son from afar and ordered, "Take Mr. Alistair back to Cahan Residence."


    "Huh?" Alistair was confused. "Mommy, Daddy, aren''t you going back?"


    Anthony didn''t exin and turned around to leave.


    "Mommy!"


    Alistair wanted to follow, but the bodyguard stopped him firmly. "Mr. Alistair, please don''t follow them.


    Mr. Cahan hasn''t seen his wife for many years and probably has a lot to say to her alone. Please


    don''t disturb them."


    "But, but Mommy''s going to feel bad when Daddy just bullied her like that."


    The bodyguards stifled theirughter and said, "That''s not bullying, that''s... being affectionate."


    Having been by Anthony''s side for five years, the bodyguards had never seen him act this way towards


    a woman before. It seemed that she must be Mrs. Cahan after all.


    ...


    A luxury car was parked below an old apartment building.


    Anthony got off the car first and was about to turn around to carry Mavis, but she resisted and shrank


    towards the other side of the car seat.


    "I can walk by myself."


    Anthony remained unmoved.


    "Carrying it is ufortable. I feel like throwing up."


    Her face was slightly pale, and she rarely spoke a gentle word.


    Anthony was taken aback, but in the end he still pulled her out of the car, not by carrying her over his


    shoulder, but by holding her in his arms.


    "Be careful, this is a staircase building. If you fall, you might break your leg," Anthony''s gaze lightly fell


    on her face and his lips curved slightly. "If you be disabled, how will you raise your son in the


    future?"


    She was speechless.


    Although she didn''t want to admit it, it was indeed true.


    Her bound hands were forced around Anthony''s neck as he carried her up the stairs.


    That old apartment was on the eighth floor and only essible by stairs.


    With Anthony holding her, they went upstairs effortlessly, without even breathing heavily.


    Mavis didn''t know why, but her ears turned red and she felt a strange feeling in her heart.


    But she was annoyed.


    "Anthony, you still make me hate you."


    "Am I your most hated person?"


    "Yes, the most hated."


    "Shouldn''t I be honored?" He smiled, making Mavis feel like hitting him.


    What a jerk.


    Mavis stared at his handsome face and felt angry. She gritted her teeth and leaned close to his ear


    while he was distracted going upstairs. She bit his ear hard.


    "Hiss..."


    Anthony frowned and groaned softly. "Do you know that this kind of behavior is provocative for men?


    Don''t force me to do something to you right now."


    Mavis''s ears turned even redder as she realized toote that this action was a bit intimate. She quickly


    let go of him because it didn''t seem appropriate to bite anywhere else either.


    She should have learned some martial arts when she was abroad so that Anthony couldn''t control her


    so easily now.


    As she regretted it, Anthony suddenly chuckled softly. "No wonder our son has such a strong sense of


    revenge. Turns out he takes after you."


    She was speechless.


    They walked all the way to the apartment door before Anthony put Mavis down and took out the key to


    open it up.


    It had been five years since anyone lived here, so Mavis thought it would be dusty inside.


    But surprisingly enough, everything was clean.


    The furnitureyout remained exactly as before without any changes whatsoever.


    It seemed like not only did he buy the entire apartment building but also hired someone to take care of


    things here too.


    "Why did you bring me back here?"


    Anthony''s eyes stared deeply into hers as he asked in return, "If not here, then where? Back at


    Cahan Residence?"


    What did he mean?


    "No, I don''t want to go back there."


    Ignoring what she saidpletely, Anthony pulled her into the apartment while exining himself,


    "When news of your death became public nationwide and your funeral received such grand attention; if


    I suddenly bring you back now, then everyone in the Cahan family will think they''re seeing ghosts! So


    I need some time first."


    "There''s no need for arrangements; Mrs. Cahan has already passed away anyway! Now I''m just


    Mavis who wants nothing more than my divorce papers."


    Even if it meant using a dead person''s identity, she didn''t want to be called Mrs. Cahan again!


    "If we don''t keep your survival hidden from everyone, then forget about getting those divorce papers or


    custody over our son!"
