Chapter 1112 Need to Recheck, Anthony is in Danger Although she knew that Anthony's leg was not really injured in the car accident, his expression seemed very convincing, as if he was really in pain.
A few days ago, she took the opportunity to beat him up. Was it because her massage technique wasn't right and she hit a pressure point that shouldn't have been touched? Thinking about this, Mavis said, "Let's go to the hospital for a check-up this afternoon." Raymond responded unhappily, "Why do you care about him? If he is really in pain, it serves him right." Moore agreed with Mavis and added, "We should definitely get it checked out for peace of mind. We don't have anything else going on this afternoon anyway. Raymond and | can help carry Anthony's wheelchair." Raymond glared at Moore when he heard this.
Moore smiled faintly and gave him a meaningful look.
Their eyes met as if they were communicating something silently. Raymond soon stopped making trouble.
Anthony had noticed their unusual behavior but continued eating calmly without saying anything.
Only Mavis hadn't noticed anything amiss. "Okay then, let's go to the hospital after lunch." When Anthony heard they were going to the hospital, his face becserious as he lowered his gaze deep in thought about something.

"What are you doing?" Raymond clicked his tongue twice. "Are you planning on warning Kane ahead of time? Are you so afraid of us coming with you to the hospital? What kind of trick do you have up your sleeve?" Unexpectedly, Moore spoke up for Anthony, "How could that be possible? Mr. Callahan is a billionaire and one of Crana's most important figures. He has nothing to fear or any reason for petty actions." Although these words sounded like support for Anthony, they also seemed like sarcastic criticism towards him.
Anthony understood what they meant, furrowing his brow even tighter than before.
Raymond sneered and chimed in, "If that's how it is then why bother calling anyone at all? Kane can stay with Alistair in the kindergarten instead of running back-and-forth between here and there." Without saying another word or changing expression on his face once more, Anthony grabbed back onto his phone tightly.
Mavis saw how both Raymond and Moore had reached an agreement without her noticing when suddenly united against Anthony.
She shook her head laughing softly, "Alright everyone stop talking now! Let's finish our meal quickly so we can leave." The three men all seemed obediently listening now. No one continued grumbling anymore but focused solely on finishing their food.
The dining table fell silent again.
Despite appearances suggesting harmony amongst them all, in reality, there was nothing harmonious happening whatsoever between them, not even slightly resembling such an atmosphere...
Raymond sat opposite Anthony, intentionally raising his eyebrows at him with great satisfaction. Without Kane, they would take Anthony directly to the hospital for a check-up. Anthony's trick of pretending to be sick was about to be exposed, and he couldn't wait to see how Anthony would embarrass himself in front of everyone! The more he thought about it, the happier he felt.
Even Raymond had a better appetite now.
The meal felt like a battlefield between three men without any gunpowder smoke. Only Mavis ate comfortably from beginning to end.
After dinner, Moore took the initiative to help Mavis wash dishes. The two worked together naturally and harmoniously in cleaning up the kitchen.
Raymond didn't miss any opportunity to mock Anthony with sarcastic remarks, "Look at how hardworking Moore is! If my sister married him, she would definitely be happy. Unlike you who only causes trouble for my sister and makes her sad while also being abusive!" Anthony's face turned dark as his cold gaze locked onto the small door in the kitchen. "There is no abuse." "Bullshit! You abused me! Beating family members counts too!" Raymond retorted angrily.
Anthony gave him a cold glance without showing any remorse on his face. "You brought that upon yourself. If you weren't Mavis" brother, your fate would have been even worse." Raymond was so angry that smoke seemed ready to cout of his ears. "So you broke my hand bone and | should thank you for showing mercy?!" Anthony lifted his chin slightly despite sitting in a wheelchair. His dignified temperament remained intact. "No need for thanks.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLearn your lesson from this experience. Don't provoke others by acting impulsively when unaware of their strength." Although he was trying to educate Raymond not to let his impulsive temper get him into trouble with others who may have an advantage over him physically or otherwise, it sounded like provocation in Raymond's ears.
Raymond was so angry that he almost jumped up from where he sat pointing at Anthony while throwing empty punches into air. He knew very well that Anthony had good fighting skills so all he could do now was gritting teeth silently.
"Anthony! You're someone with violent tendencies! If you can hitnow, then maybe one day you'll lay hands on my sister!" Raymond continued ranting, "A scumbag like you should stay far away once divorced. Don't even think about interfering with my sister's happiness alongside Moore!" Anthony sneered, "Moore is just another softie who can't protect her compared to me." "Moore is still better than you!" Raymond leaned in close to Anthony's ear, almost gritting his teeth as he spoke. "Anyone is better than you as long as they're not with you! Someone like Moore comes from a simple family and will live an ordinary life after marriage, happy but unremarkable.
But someone from a big wealthy family like the Callahans has many enemies lurking in the shadows. My sister would be on edge every day if she were with you. | don't care how much money you have. All | want is for my sister to be happy and loved by her husband." Anthony felt a sudden pain in his chest, and his eyes started to water slightly.
"No," he insisted stubbornly. "I can protect her better than anyone else can. On the other hand, men like Moore cannot give her any sense of security." Raymond sneered at him. "Before my sister married you through that arranged marriage agreement of yours, did she feel safe around the Callahans? When she was pregnant and about to give birth, during those critical moments when she needed help most urgently... you weren't there for her! You didn't even sign off on forms for epidurals or emergency blood transfusions! You disappeared without a trace for an entire day and night! And yet you claim that you can protect her?" Anthony's face turned pale white. He was completely speechless.
"You hurt my sister so badly before without ever apologizing," Raymond continued relentlessly. "What makes you think that she will forgive you or that | will accept your presence? Because of your wealth and power? Because my sister cfrom Teflayria village with no background while thinking that somehow being with someone like you made her superior? Because it gave your ego spleasure to belittle her constantly?" "But Anthony," Raymond said finally after taking a deep breath. "In my eyes, you are not worthy of her, nor of the years of her liking and dedication to you. The biggest mistake she made in this marriage was loving you too much and having a romantic mind!" "Now finally though, she has cback into reality, and if there is any shred of decency left within, you should initiate divorce proceedings immediately, give back Alistair who was born out ten months pregnancy, and show srespect towards yourself!" Facing all these accusations, Anthony sat silently on his wheelchair, his face turning pale.
Raymond chuckled softly again before leaning closer once more. "lI know very well that your leg isn't really injured. You're just pretending, right? This afternoon, you'll probably be exposed publicly. What do you think my sister's expression will look like then?" Anthony clenched his fist tightly under his sleeve, his face becoming even paler.
Raymond took it all in, muttering quietly under his breath. This was going exactly according plan. His sister had known about this schsince long ago. She wanted Anthony exposed publicly, to see him embarrassed. But still, it couldn't hurt to tease him just little bit more...
Yeah, this felt great!
