Hearing Anthony's words, Mavis let out a lament.
The desire to eat cake should be a bust.
Mavis took a deep breath before pressing the downward elevator button.
As the elevator descended, she folded her hands and silently said "Happy Birthday to Mavis" before stepping out of the elevator.
When she cto the underground parking lot, she saw a Lambo Huracan with the windows half down, revealing Anthony's handsface.
"Eighty percent of the share cannot be less. And warn them that if they dare to take market share again, Callahan Group does not mind getting them out of the current market forever." Anthony was on the phone. His tone was grim, with his hand taking a cigarette.
Despite this look, Mavis looked dumbfounded, admitting that she just liked him, all kinds of him.
Anthony noticed the person standing next to the car, so he put out his cigarette butt and hung up the phone. Mavis saw that he had finished with his work, and only then did she open the car door and sit in.
Once in the car, Anthony dialed Rebecca's number directly.
The other side picked up quickly.

Anthony, "Cut the crap. Today is Mavis" birthday. Hurry hand get ready.” "Ah? So it's Mavis’ birthday. | haven't prepared a birthday present for her yet. I'll have someone bring over the jewelry set | had custom made earlier. This is Mavis' first birthday in our family. It has to be grand. I'l call Timothy and the others right now." Rebecca's tone was excited, which made Mavis a little nervous.
She did not dare to interrupt the conversation between the two siblings, and could only watch Anthony.
She didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so she was going to spend it on her own, and besides, she didn't want to owe anyone's favor because of it.
What was more, she had to leave Callahan Residence sooner or later, and she didn't want to owe Timothy and Rebecca too much.
Observing Mavis’ expression, Anthony spoke up, "Just ask you and Timothy to cback. She is not familiar with the others.
Don't make a whole lot of pomp and circumstance. She will be uncomfortable.” At that, Rebecca let out a meaningful "oh".
As soon as the phone hung up, Mavis immediately said, "Mr. Callahan, actually don't bother. My birthday is not important ..." "What should | be called after work?" Anthony gave her an unhappy look.
Mavis bit her lip and said, "Honey ..." "No need to keep Rebecca and the others busy. My birthday is really unimportant.” When she said the word "unimportant", Mavis lowered her head somewhat, feeling upset.
She was really a nobody. On the surface, she was just his wife.
Seeing the disappointment and unhappiness in her eyes, Anthony grabbed her hand and commanded, "It's up to me." With a hum, the car left the parking lost.
Mavis clung to the seat belt and didn't say anything.
When passing a flower shop, Anthony suddenly braked and went out without a word.
Mavis watched as his figure entered the florist's shop, with her heartbeat racing.
Did he... buy her flowers? Despite her determination not to expect anything, Mavis can't help but look forward to what he did next.
Soon, the figure cout of the shop.
Nothing on his hands.
She shouldn't have expected it.
On the way home, two people still didn't say a word.
Mavis fiddled with her cell phone.
The phone was full of boring news, and she soon lost interest and looked out of the window.
The scenery outside the car window quickly passed by her. She saw an old man walking slowly on the road. She saw a high school student who looked like a teenager. He was happily telling people around him something interesting.

All said that lovers get married. Mavis secretly took a look at the side of Anthony. She and was is not the safter all.
Back at the Callahan Residence, Rebecca was waiting at the door.
Seeing them coming back, she hugged Mavis and said happily, "Happy Birthday, Mavis! I've prepared a birthday present for you.
Cin and see if you like it." "You really haven't toldyour birthday. Do you still treatas a friend?" Mavis smiled and made an excuse. "Actually, | forgot it's my birthday too. Anthony was the one who reminded me. It wasn't important anyway, so you didn't have to bother.” Rebecca shook her head. "It's important. This is your first birthday at Callahan Residence. You have to enjoy it. If Anthony didn't wantto scare you, | would have prepared a very, very grand party for you!" Entering the Callahan Residence, the servants were busy in the kitchen.
Rebecca couldn't wait to take Mavis back to her room and pull out a very nice gift box.
After open, inside was a very beautiful pendant emerald necklace.
"Mavis, this is a limited-edition gem necklace | bought in Matania. There are only two in the world, and this one is for you." With that, Rebecca was about to put the necklace around Mavis's neck.
Mavis quickly refused. "Rebecca, this is too expensive. | can't accept it." Limited-edition. She can not afford it.
"These two necklaces are withnow. It's good that we each have one. | don't wear it normally anyway. This way, we can wear it when we attend events together. It's a best friend costume.” Rebecca put the necklace on Mavis despite her refusal, and did not forget to compliment. "Look, you look very suitable for this necklace. Emerald green's color brings out the best in people. You look so pretty when you wear it. Don't feel any pressure. | just want to wear the necklace with you." Looking in the mirror at the girl with the bright smile, Mavis lowered her head in a complicated way.
Rebecca was still waiting for her and Anthony to have a baby, and she was going to be disappointed when her marriage to Anthony reached its agreed term.
"Mavis, are you listening?" Rebecca's voice brought Mavis back to her senses. She smiled and nodded. "I was just thinking. You gavesuch an expensive gift. What gift should | give you?" Hearing this, Rebecca chuckled and said, "If you could have lethave a nephew or niece to play with, it would have been the best gift." Mavis blushed.
