After divorce I am a billionaire

Chapter 1029 She never mentioned "What do you mean?" asked Anthony who was inexplicably confused on the other end of the line.

Zack sighed heavily, "lI don't know if it was because of my cold last night that causedvisual hallucinations. | mistook Mrs.

Callahan's mother for Mrs. Callahan herself." Anthony's eyes dimmed slightly at this news.

After all, Mavis' mother wasn't actually Mavis herself.

"She is buried in the Callahan family cemetery. Even if she has a ghostly presence here on earth somewhere, she should be haunting Suham instead of running all this way out here to Bostrain." Though Zack agreed with him that what he saw couldn't be real, he still felt pain at his head's back like someone hit him hard enough there.

This left Anthony speechless for quite stime.

After all these years working together with Zack who always had good health conditions except when catching common colds, it wouldn't cause such weakness, leading up fainting spells easily.

This was very problematic indeed, especially considering Lyra's abilities...

After thinking about it carefully for a moment or two more, Anthony spoke sternly, "Don't rush hjust yet. Wait until you can go see what happen without alarming anyone else in the household." "Understood," replied Zack obediently.

"It's better to do it right now," added Anthony firmly before ending their call abruptly so that Zack could go investigate immediately without delay since twas crucial now! "Ah?" Zack looked at the sky outside the window and then checked his watch.

"Mr. Callahan, it's already dark here, and people in rural areas usually sleep early. By the t| get there, it'll be late at night." Anthony had to compromise. "Then tomorrow morning, just make sure not to wake Lyra up." "Okay." That night, Anthony couldn't sleep as he was weighed down by heavy thoughts.

Lyra was secretly helping Mavis's mother.

Without any notice or explanation, Lyra left for Bostrain.

Zack went looking for her and stumbled upon a possible assault victim on his way there.

All these incidents hinted at one thing: Lyra had a secret that might be related to Mavis or even him.

The more he thought about it, the more uneasy Anthony felt.

He couldn't sleep all night.

Early next morning, Zack got up before dawn and headed back to the mountains.

After walking along the mountain road once again this taround, looking for her place of residence cnaturally to him.

He hid behind a tree in the yard and gazed towards an adjacent house where there wasn't any movement inside yet - were they still asleep? In no tthough Zack saw Lyra carrying large bags out slowly from inside, while Mavis's mother carried neatly packed cardboard boxes outside into their yard - were they packing? Zack was puzzled when suddenly Lyra spotted him hiding behind the tree.

"Zack? Why haven't you left yet? What are you doing standing behind that tree?" she asked from afar with sharp eyesight that could see him clearly enough.

He looked embarrassed with an awkward smile on his face as he replied, "Ms. Lloyd, please don't misunderstand me. | lost something yesterday so | cover this morning looking for it." Lyra remained calm,"Did you find it?" "Nope! It's just a card related to work but hard to find. Most likely lost somewhere," he quickly brushed off this topic before asking her again. "Ms. Lloyd, what are you guys doing here?" Lyra answered naturally, "Mavis' mother can't get used to living in Bostrain anymore so she wants to move back hin Teflayria.

I'm helping her move." Zack immediately offered help, "Then lethelp carry things since | have greater strength, plus my cold seems almost gone." Lyra didn't refuse but instead smiled while handing over luggage, "Thanks." Zack had been helping with the move until close to noon when Anthony called him.

"Mr. Callahan, when | arrived this morning, Ms. Lloyd happened to be helping Mrs. Callahan's mother move. | checked carefully and it really was Mrs. Callahan's mother with no other abnormal situations." He emphasized before Anthony could respond, "lI am very alert this tand pay special attention to details while moving the luggage. From start to finish, | didn't notice anything unusual. As for what | told you last night, it must have been my imagination." Zack did wake up with a headache yesterday but didn't whether it was from being knocked out. He had never experienced anything like that before and as tpassed, his memory of fainting becmore vague.

Furthermore, Lyra's reaction showed no signs of any issues.

Anthony remained silent on the phone for several minutes.

After a few minutes passed by in silence, Anthony calmly asked, "Why did they suddenly need to move?" "I'm not entirely sure but Ms. Lloyd said she cover specifically to help Mrs. Callahan's mother handle things." It seemed reasonable enough that she would cover just for help moving and handling things afterwards.

"Other than Mavis' mom and Lyra, there really isn't any problem? You're sure you went inside and checked? Just those two?" "Yes, Mr. Callahan. Only Mrs. Callahan's mother and Ms. Lloyd are there. Nothing else." Zack had been too busy carrying luggage outside so he hadn't gone inside or looked around much at all besides glancing around briefly from the doorway.

Anthony fell silent again on the phone.

For sreason, he felt very disappointed - indescribably so - even though he knew better than anyone not to expect anything special in particular from this situation.

He would rather hear Lyra tell him that Mavis died during childbirth a year ago as punishment for his deception scheme, instead of hearing nothing at all about what happened here today...

His forehead started hurting slightly, so he rubbed his temples tiredly, saying, "Alright, then if everything is normal in Bostrain, return promptly back here." "Okay." That snight, Zack bought a plane ticket back hwithout knowing that shortly after leaving, their bags were moved back into their cabin by Lyra along with Mavis' mother.

Mavis borrowed sstart-up capital from Lyra and planned to make a big splash in Bostrain, opening up a trade and economic route for this poor and backward country.

Two days later, Lyra returned home.

At the airport, besides Malcolm with his twin kids, there was only Anthony standing alone.

Lyra got off the plane and saw a family of three waiting for her at the VIP channel. She hurried over and gave the two little ones a hug.

The atmosphere was joyful as they all caught up. It wasn't until later that Lyra noticed Anthony and asked in surprise, "Why did you cto pickup? Where's Alistair? Didn't he cwith you?" "I left Alistair with his grandmother. | cbecause | have something to ask you." Lyra understood immediately. "Then go ahead and ask." "When did you arrange for Mavis' parents to divorce and send her mother away from Teflayria? Was it at Mavis' request before she passed away?" Lyra didn't avoid his question but answered seriously, "I arranged for her parents' divorce case one month before Mavis gave birth.

And yes, your guess is correct. It was Mavis' request. The only thing she couldn't let go of was her mother." Anthony frowned slightly. "She cared about even her mother but never mentioned me?" Lyra remained silent.

Before Anthony could ask anything else, his phone rang - it was a call from Callahan Residence.

"Mr. Callahan, Alistair has been feeling unwell since noon today. We just took his temperature which showed he has a fever now.

Would you like to cback hto take care of him?"
