NovelEnglishChapter 880 A Woman’s Intuition After entering the study on the second floor, Chester locked the door inside.
Shirley walked back and forth in the living room and paid attention to the time on the clock. Occasionally, she checked the corner of the stairs. The house was pin-drop silent.
She couldn't rest assured, countless ideas flashing through her mind. In the end, she sat on the sofa while drinking coffee.
Two hours later, she heard footsteps on the stairs.
Shirley quickly looked up and saw Chester come down. "See you, Mrs. Saunders," he bid her farewell politely.

Shirley wondered what he had discussed with Clarence for two hours. Seemingly they didn't think their office was a secure place for the discussion.
Shortly after, the footsteps on the stairs brought Shirley back to her senses. She turned around and saw Clarence.
He wore a black suit. His tall, sturdy figure made him look dignified and solemn. However, he looked pale as he frowned deeply.
"Clarence?" Shirley strode towards him and asked worriedly, "Anything wrong?" Clarence looked over.
She added, "Why did Chester come to our house? This was the first time. What did you discuss? It took you such a long time. Have you solved the problem?" Her tone was full of uneasiness and worry.
"Some trouble at work. I'm the city mayor, so | have to deal with all kinds of things." Clarence straightened his suit jacket and sighed. "Chester can deal with them. I've told him how to do it. Don't worry." Shirley felt slightly relieved. "I can't help you much. I'm worried about your health, Clarence. You haven't slept well recently." "I'm alright. | slept better last night," Clarence consoled her, "The soothing tonic works well." Shirley hugged him, wrapped her arms around his waist, and pressed her face to his chest. "I wish nothing would happen to you, Clarence." Clarence frowned. "What's wrong with you?" He pushed her away harshly and snapped, "Don't jinx it!" Shirley was freaked out with a baffled expression and couldn't return to her senses for a long time.
The silence in the living room made Clarence rational. His gaze met Shirley's in mid-air. "I..." He wanted to explain but didn't know how.
"I know you are bothered by your work and have much pressure," Shirley muttered in a grievance, "I'm worried about your health. You are aged, unlike a young man. We both are getting old." "I know. I'll pay attention," Clarence answered, his tone soft.
Tears welled up in Shirley's eyes, but she pressed her lips to hold them back.
Clarence strode up to her, hugging her gently. "I'm sorry..." Meanwhile, Finnley flew the helicopter to take Mya back to Arkpool City.
The air between them was awkward on the way. Neither spoke. However, both were thinking about Eloise's request.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen they departed, Eloise was still coughing blood. Her status was too poor. All the Calder elders were waiting in her ward, and the nurse put her on a trip.
Instead of returning home, Finnley brought Mya back to his apartment.
While the elevator went up, they still didn't talk. However, they gradually returned to the present and out of their scattered thoughts.
They were closer to the floor where Finnley stayed.
Mya couldn't help but recall the days when she stayed with him. Beautiful memories appeared in her mind.
She was delighted every day at that time.
They walked out of the elevator and unlocked the door. As soon as they entered, Finnley gripped her shoulders and kissed her wildly.
Mya was too shocked to keep her balance.
