Chapter 1393: Really?
After eating and drinking his fill, Alice Turner felt much better, especially in her mood, which she thought had improved a lot compared to before.
When Anthony is hungry, he’s full of energy. Now that he’s eaten and drunk his fill, he’s even more lively. He grabbed Alice Turner and wanted to continue playing, "Sis! Where are we going to play now?"
As he spoke, he looked expectantly at the person beside him.
"Didn’t you have enough this morning?" Alice Turner was not the kind of person who loved to play, especially since she had a lot of work to do, and she simply didn’t have that much time to accompany this ancestor to play.
Anthony shook his head emphatically, "No."
For someone who loves to play, how can a morning ever be enough?
"But we didn’t come here to play; we have a lot of work to do." Alice Turner is a workaholic, and let alone that she came with work tasks, she wouldn’t slack off.
Of course, Anthony knew there was a lot of work to do, but right now he just wanted to play. He felt that once he played enough, his mood would completely relax, and only then could he work peacefully.
"Sis! Let’s go back to work after we’re done playing. Besides, the work isn’t that urgent." Anthony only thought about playing right now; he simply had no mood to go back to work without playing enough.
Alice Turner’s thinking was just the opposite of Anthony’s; if she didn’t finish her work, she wouldn’t have the mood to play anything.
"Even if it’s not urgent, it still needs to be done. Once we finish our work, I’ll take you to have a good time, and wherever you say to go, I’ll accompany you." To get Anthony, this ancestor, to go back to work with her, Alice Turner didn’t hesitate to make him this promise.
"Really?"
Anthony excitedly wrapped his arm around Alice Turner’s, waiting for her to confirm again.
"It’s true!" Alice Turner nodded to confirm her answer and then opened her mouth to ask Anthony’s opinion: "Can we go back now?"
If this ancestor doesn’t go back, how can she go back alone? Although this ancestor was already an adult, she still didn’t trust this ancestor being out here alone, given his great ability to cause trouble.
"Of course we can."
Anthony, linking arms with Alice Turner, walked to the roadside, and the two of them took a cab back to the hotel.
After returning to the hotel, Alice Turner dove into her room and began to focus on her work.
Anthony was very well-behaved and didn’t bother Alice Turner about working together because he knew she hated being disturbed when working, so as not to affect her work, he went back to his room.
Ding dong! Ding dong! Ding dong!
In the mid-afternoon, someone suddenly came and rang the doorbell outside.
Alice Turner, who was working on her computer with her head down, slowly raised her head, staring at the door for quite a while, without any intention of getting up to open it.
Ding dong! Ding dong! Ding dong!
After waiting a long time without anyone inside opening the door, the person outside rang the doorbell again.
The doorbell rang once more, and Alice Turner snapped out of her daze, putting the laptop on her lap onto the coffee table, and got up to walk towards the door.
When she reached behind the door, she didn’t immediately open it but instead peered through the peephole, but she didn’t see anyone.
This ancestor! Playing this game with her again.
Alice Turner quickly reached out to open the door, wanting to grab Anthony, who was hiding to the side, back inside, but before she could reach out, a tall figure suddenly flashed in from the side of the door.
