After being blissfully served by Boss Sylvester early in the morning, Ava walked around the room in his shirt and finally could not help asking, “Is this your place?”
“Hm.”
A simple acknowledgment confirmed Ava’s thoughts.
Antonio rarely returned to the Sylvester family residence, so this had to be where he usually stayed in the past.
Ava wore Antonio’s shirt and wore nothing underneath.
After she returned to the bedroom, she glanced at the clothes left on the floor.
The dress she wore last night was torn apart. It made her think back to her lack of restraint then. Her unwashed bra and underwear were placed messily on the ground for the whole night. She definitely could not wear it again…
“Do you not have clothes I can wear here?” She walked out again and saw Antonio wiping his hands as he left the kitchen.
He was cooking earlier, and now he was washing the dishes. This side of CEO Sylvester was rare and hard to see.
“Do you wish for me to have women’s clothing here?” he asked instead.
“…”
“It’s been a long time since I returned here. The ingredients I used in the morning was what I ordered from the supermarket downstairs. There are only a few sets of suits in the cabinet,” he calmly said.
“But I can’t stay dressed like this here the whole time. It’s fine if I’m in front of you… but I can’t wear this out.”
Antonio’s gaze suddenly became heavy. “Indeed, you can only dress like this in front of me. Go ahead and try to wear it out, if you dare.”
Ava stared at him with a wronged expression on her face. “Then, what do I wear? Would it be too troublesome to call Aunt Berta to send clothes over?”
“Wait.”
Antonio said and picked up his phone.
Taking the opportunity while he was on the phone, Ava walked around the apartment.
Although this place was not as large as the Bellevue Hill’s villa, nor was it a double storey condo, it had a space of around 150 square feet even with being one-storey alone. Everything required was there: a bedroom, a living room, a dining room, and a study. However, it was a little simple, and the things around were too few. She opened the closet and saw that there was really only men’s shirts and pants.
Even the indoor shoes in the shoe cabinet were new and unopened, meant for men’s feet.
It could be seen that this place, aside from himself, had no other guests. It was even more unlikely that any other women might have been here before.
Although knowing Antonio’s history was clean, after glancing around like this, as a woman, Ava’s heart felt very satisfied.
Although the clothes worn yesterday could not be worn again today, it was not right to throw them away either. Ava was no longer the wasteful rich young lady she was previously. She now had an obsession with cleanliness, was hardworking, and was also good at managing a household. Not to mention, these undergarments were not cheap.
She picked up the pitiful, looking underwear on the ground and returned to the bathroom. The sound of water running, and something being washed filled the bathroom.
Antonio dialed-up someone. After it connected, he requested, “Prepare a set of clothing that Ava can wear and send it over. The address is Arc International, 1801.”
“… you actually returned there? And you brought Ava in?”
“If you don’t know the measurements, go the Bellevue Hill to take. Bring Aunt Berta along.”
The man asked, “You’re sure it’s Arc International? That is where you…”
“Send it within half an hour. I’m hanging up.”
The clicking sound of the phone being hung up resounded, leaving behind a cold beeping sound.
“…”
Antonio casually tossed his phone on the coffee table. Hearing the sound of water flowing in the bathroom, he walked in and saw a beautiful scene—the eldest Miss of the Clifford family, who was typically pampered, was washing her white bra and underwear. The bedroom had also been tidied up with nothing left on the ground.
Not only had her personality changed a lot, but even her living habits were also no longer the same.
In the bathroom, Ava was washing seriously. Occasionally, her wet hands moved behind her ears, pushing her hair aside and revealing her snow-white neck. The large dress shirt on her was sexy and made her seem defenseless.
Antonio stood there, watching for a long while.
Half an hour later, the doorbell rang.
Antonio left to open the door. Auntie Berta was brought over. After opening the door, she asked nothing and went straight in to deliver the clothes to Ava. “Madam, your clothes are here. They were all brought out from your closet. I’m not sure if the sizes are suitable, but these are the ones I often see you wearing.”
While Auntie Berta looked for Ava, a tall and slender man stood at the entryway with his hands tucked in his pockets. He glanced at this Antonio who seemed to treat this place like his and Ava’s wedding home.
The man squinted his eyes. Instead of entering, he lit a cigarette. “Previously, when I heard Ryan Harrison mention this, I thought I had misheard. You are… being serious with Ava?”
Antonio voice was apathetic. “Who gave you the courage to smoke at my place?”
“… Damn it. You also smoked for several years. I didn’t quit smoking!” The man almost choked on the smoke. His handsome face was cold and expressionless. He glanced toward the few love bites exposed on Antonio’s collar, his lips curving into a sexy, bitter smile. “I thought in these few years you were repressed to the point where no woman could interest you.”
“She’s not any other woman.”
“… what ability exactly does Ava have to be noticed by you.”
“She’s very good and indeed has the ability.”
“…”
“Mr. Sylvester, I’ve already passed the clothes to Mrs. Sylvester. Do you have any other orders?”
The man outside the door furrowed his brows, looking in as he did not see Ava walking out of the bedroom.
“Go back now.” Antonio was cold and apathetic.
“All right, Mr. Sylvester.”
Antonio smoothly closed the door, leaving the two outside.
Inside the room, Ava changed her clothes. Aunt Berta was very considerate. The clothes she brought were of the right size. Regardless if it was innerwear or outerwear, the ones she brought were all simple and classy, just like what Ava had been wearing recently.
She neatened her clothes and combed through her hair, leaving some waves at the ends of her hair. She relied on her good skin and rarely put on any makeup. She did not even apply any toner as she walked out of the room with a bare face.
Antonio stood there, glancing out through the floor-to-ceiling windows. He stood tall and straight, giving off a cold and handsome temperament. His shirt and pants were completely unwrinkled. He placed one of his hands in his pockets. Through his back view, Ava saw the gracefulness that belonged to a person after leaving behind their mortal burdens.
“I’ve changed.” She walked over.
The man glanced back at her. “You didn’t bring your phone back?”
“No, after receiving your phone call yesterday, Amy snatched it and smashed it on the ground. It most likely cannot be used anymore.”
Her words had just landed when Antonio turned around, picking up the electronic car keys on the coffee table.
“Go put on your coat.”
“Ah? Where are we going?”
Seeing that after waking up today, Ava’s expression was all rather dumb but adorable, Antonio’s lips curved slightly. “Isn’t your phone broken? I’ll accompany you to buy a new one.”
