Maxwell Peary glanced at his phone screen, silently memorizing the string of numbers to avoid being clueless about who was calling until he picked up.
"Then you should rest."
Maxwell said as he was about to hang up.
"Wait a second!"
Anne Davidson suddenly raised her voice.
"It's like this, I just arrived here and I'm really unfamiliar with the area, so... I don't know where to go to eat, could you..."
Anne paused here, trusting that Maxwell understood the words she hadn't spoken.
She held her breath nervously, waiting for what Maxwell would say next.
Though he appeared very aloof, she was different—Maxwell would definitely agree.
She wanted the entire Capital Town to know that Anne Davidson had returned!
This time, she returned as the lady of the house.
Even if Maxwell was already married, so what? People outside didn't know, right?
Maxwell choosing to conceal it surely meant he didn't take Nia Mitchell too seriously.
"Just go online and order some takeout."
