Chapter 1059 Feel Dangerous
After not showing up the night before, Phil did not show up the whole day the next day either. Anya’s
breakfast and lunch were delivered by Gaven.
When Gaven brought her lunch, he said meaningfully, “Mr. Henderson may not be able to cook dinner
for you himself yet…”
Instinctively, Anya felt what Gaven said was strange. What did he mean that Phil could not cook for her
himself? It sounded as if she only wanted to eat the food cooked by Phil.
Why did he emphasize “Mr. Henderson cooked himself”? Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
In fact, she never demanded that Phil should cook for her in person. She did not want him to cook. She
had lived well when she had been alone.
Anya said to Gaven at the thought, “You don’t have to bring food to me. I’ll handle it myself.”
Gaven shook his head and said, “It’s okay. I just did what Mr. Henderson said.”
It meant that Anya had to tell Phil herself if she did not need the “food delivery service”.
Anya pretended that she did not understand Gaven’s hint and just told him, “You just tell him about it.
And please express my thanks to him on my behalf.”
Anya was speechless that Gaven learned from Phil how to give hints in a roundabout way.
Since Gaven implied that she should take the initiative to contact Phil, she would just do it the other
way.
After Anya went upstairs, Gaven scratched the back of his head with a sigh and went into his car.
What could he do?
His boss was ill and did not want Anya to know it in case that Anya deemed his sickness as a winning-
her-comfort trick. But from the bottom of his heart, he thirsted for her visit and concern.
He read his boss’s mind at a glance. As a subordinate, he had to give Anya hints without directly telling
her that Phil was sick; otherwise, his boss would have to scold him, after knowing he was the leaker.
Gaven did not understand his boss. Phil wanted Anya’s care, but he did not want her to know about his
sickness. Isn’t Phil pretentious?
But Gaven could only secretly comment on Phil’s actions in his mind. He did not dare to express his
true feelings when confronting Phil.
Now it seemed that Anya absolutely had no intention of taking the initiative to call his boss, and she did
not even notice his strange hints.
As a matter of fact, Anya noticed. But she did not think about it. For her, it was sheer relief that Phil did
not show up. What would she call Phil actively?
However, when it was dark outside, Anya had to call Phil.
Because she forgot her key at home when she got to classes in the afternoon. What a poor memory!
And she did not even know why she had a poor memory recently. She remembered that she had put
the key into her bag. After rummaging around in her bag before the door of her home, however, she did
not find it.
Anya rubbed her forehead and felt it throbbing.
It seemed that she could only call Phil because he had another key.
When Phil answered, Anya heard that he sounded weak at the other end. She said with
embarrassment, “Umm… are you at the company now, or at home?”
Phil replied briefly, “At home.”
Anya said, “I forgot my key…”
Pausing for a moment, Phil chuckled.
Anya was confused, not knowing why he chuckled. Then she realized that he must be laughing at her
poor memory. Bastard.
She was wrong, indeed. Phil did not mean to laugh at her memory. He was happy. It was a godsend.
Phil was just thinking about how to make Anya come and visit him and she just came to his door.
So, he said, “Come and get it. I’m afraid I can’t deliver it to you.”
And then he told her his address. Anya found he had just lived a street away from her. Without a
second thought, she said OK.
After she came to his place and rang the bell, she realized that Phil was sick.
Phil looked depressed at first glance. His face looked pale. He was wrapped in black pajamas, which
were loose and full of wrinkles. It seemed that he had just gotten up from bed.
Anya was familiar with the pajamas. It looked like a birthday gift she gave him.
Anya was a little annoyed with him. Didn’t he have any other pajamas? Why did he have to bring her
gift abroad, since they had divorced? And why did he wear it when she was here?
He did it deliberately to annoy her, didn’t he?
And! The neckline was not as wide as it was shown now. How could he wear it like this? Anya was
embarrassed to look at him directly.
She looked down to his shoulder and asked, frowning, “What happened…”
“Suffering from the climate. Stomach flu,” explained Phil. Then he turned and went to his bedroom.
Anya pursed her lips. She just stood outside and intended to get the key and leave. But surprisingly,
Phil was ill and weak.
Since Phil went back to his bedroom, Anya could only go after him and walked into the house.
When she was changing her shoes, she stiffened. Unexpectedly, Phil had prepared her a pair of
slippers.
But what annoyed her was that they were hers at home, a pair of fluffy, soft, white slippers. Anya was
familiar with them and Phil’s preparation irritated her a lot.
Anya did not clean up her stuff in the house where they lived together before after the divorce. Why
couldn’t Phil just ask the housekeeper to throw all the things away? Anya felt almost shocked when she
saw the pajamas that she gave him and her own slippers that she used when they had been together.
She wore the slippers angrily and followed Phil to his bedroom. She asked at the bedroom door with
teeth gritted, “Where is the key?”
Phil had got back into his bed at the sound and he said weakly, “Maybe it is in the pocket of my suit.”
Anya was about to find his suit and she heard him saying, “By gosh, I remembered my suit was sent to
the laundry. Gaven sent it in the morning.”
Anya was dumbfounded.
She suspected he did it on purpose. How could it be such a coincidence that his suit was delivered for
laundering just at the time when she was asking for the key in the pocket?
Yes. Phil did it on purpose. The key was under his pillow.
He was dissatisfied with her. After entering the door, she did not even say a word of concern to him. If
she was concerned about him and called him once, she would notice that his voice was different and
she would know that he was sick.
But she did not. This showed clearly that she did not care about him in the slightest, or that she must
be overjoyed because he had not appeared in her home since last night.
“Where is the laundromat? I’ll call and ask if there’s a key.” Anya took it for granted that Phil had really
put her key in the pocket of the suit which had been delivered for laundering.
However, Phil slowly took out her key under his pillow. The key was hanging between his long, slender
fingers, and Phil gestured to her to come forward and get it.
Instinctively, Anya felt dangerous and stood still.
