She said, “Great-Grandma is unwell now and she’s recovering. I’ve been by her side taking care of
her.”
If she told the kids that she was being imprisoned by Odell, they would probably be upset with Odell
again.
Sylvia just wanted them to live a happy and healthy life. She did not want them to be troubled by the
terrible problems of adult life. She would rather endure all of the problems herself than giving them a
bad childhood. The two little ones believed her but they were also disheartened. Isabel asked,
“Mommy, is Great-Grandma better now?” “Not yet, but I believe she will be soon.” “Yeah, I believe it
too.”
Odell heard the conversation from outside the door and his expression turned grim.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“This shameless woman has the nerve to mention Grandmother and even pretended to be taking care
of her in front of the kids. She even said that she believed that Grandmother would wake up.
If Grandmother really woke up, she would be able to testify against this shameless woman’s filthy act.
Surely this woman wanted Grandmother dead more than anyone else!
Sylvia chatted with the two kids for a while, helped them change and brought them down for breakfast.
Odell was not around.
While they were eating at the table, Sylvia looked around but did not see Sebastian or any of the
bodyguards. She turned to Aunt Tonya and said, “Aunt Tonya, can I borrow your phone?”
She wanted to call Sherry. Then, she could just sit back and allow Odell to do whatever he wanted to
her.
She also had to clear her name and save Edmund from the police.
Aunt Tonya’s irritation showed on her face. “Sebastian took my phone on the day we returned from the
resort. I tried borrowing a phone to contact you but no one would help. They even guarded me as if I
was a thief these few days.”
Sylvia frowned. She had to give up on the thought of contacting Sherry.
Maybe because of the rough night that they had, Isabel and Liam started to yawn after breakfast.
Sylvia sat beside their beds and watched them sleep.
It was then that Aunt Tonya came in.
She pulled Sylvia to the door and asked in a small voice, “Syl, tell me what happened that day? How
did Madam Carter end up in a coma? What happened to you in the past week?”
Since the two little ones were already asleep, Sylvia told Aunt Tonya everything that had happened.
From Madam Carter falling off the hill to Odell mistaking her and Edmund as the culprits behind the
incident, she told Aunt Tonya all the details.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAunt Tonya was furious after learning what had happened. “How could he think that you and Edmund
were having an affair? This is unreasonable! Let me go and reason with him!” Sylvia pulled her back.
“Aunt Tonya, calm down. He’s angry right now, so it’s better if you don’t provoke him for now. I’ll think of
a way to explain it to him. Just help me to watch the kids while I’m gone.” “But you’ve been wronged.
How could he suspect you without any evidence?” Aunt Tonya sighed helplessly. Sylvia had no idea as
well. He was probably just as distrustful of her as he was a few years back. She talked to Aunt Tonya a
little more before she returned to the kids. Two hours later, Isabel and Liam finally woke up from their
morning nap. Liam was rather calm when he woke up. He simply leaned against Sylvia quietly. Isabel,
however, became nervous the moment she opened her eyes. When she found her mother beside her,
she buried herself in her mother’s embrace.
Sylvia could feel the clingy girl in front of her chest. She held Isabel with one arm while she hugged
Liam with the other. After chatting with them for a while, she noticed they were in a good mood. So, she
said, ” Isabel, Liam, Mommy has to tell you something.” “What is it?” Isabel looked at her with her big
eyes.
Liam also looked at her quietly. “Mommy has to go back to look after Great-Grandma later because she
needs someone by her side. So Mommy won’t see you two again until a week later.”
