“Why are you laughing at him?”
“Because he got what he deserved.”
“Oh.” It was true, he had gotten exactly what he deserved. There had been no reason for him to do what he did
and cause her lapse of memory
They drove back steadily the same way they came until the car reached the old Carter residence and stopped in
front of the gate.
The bodyguard that was guarding the gate promptly approached and opened the door for Sylvia.
Sylvia turned around and prepared to get out of the car, but she suddenly felt something tugging at her hand.
She turned and looked at Odell suspiciously.
His deep eyes were looking at her tenderly and as he spoke, his voice was deep with bass but pleasant to the ear, “I
need to go back to the office to deal with something. Just stay at home and don‘t wander around. Call me if
anything comes up at all.”
Sylvia grimaced.
He was treating her as if she was a child.
Even if she had lost her memory, she was still an adult.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUpon noticing her silence, Odell patted her on the head and asked, “Did you hear me?” Sylvia‘s mouth twitched, “I
did.”
“Alright, go.”
He let go of her hand.
“Okay.” Sylvia turned and got out of the car.
The car drove away as soon as she stepped out.
She stole one last look at the car before walking into the house.
Sebastian, Aunt Tonya, and the others were chatting happily in the yard.
Sylvia approached them and asked curiously, “Aunt Tonya, what are you two chatting about?”
Aunt Tonya was taken aback by this.
Sebastian and the others were just as astounded by this.
They were still getting used to the new Sylvia. The Sylvia from before would have never joined in their gossip
sessions.
Aunt Tonya remarked with a smile, “We‘re talking about Wanda‘s hometown.”
Aunt Wanda added, “To be specific, we‘re talking about my cousin.”
“I see.” Sylvia commented.
Aunt Tonya had always been fond of making small talk and gossiping with the others. Sylvia figured that she might
as well join them since she had nothing else to do. Besides, she figured it would be a good way for her to figure out
what was going on these days.
She turned and sat with them.
Aunt Tonya and Sebastian were once again startled by her behavior.
She merely smiled and said, “Please continue. Don‘t mind me.”
Aunt Wanda and Sebastian both turned to look at Aunt Tonya.
With a resigned look on her face, Aunt Tonya turned back to Aunt Wanda and said, “So, you were saying?”
Aunt Wanda chuckled and picked up where she left off, “Yeah, we were talking about my cousins‘ wife, she sure is
something...”
She prattled on and on.
The conversation resumed as if it had never been interrupted. Both Sebastian and Aunt Tonya loved listening to
such tales and chimed in with some funny remarks now and then.
After a while, Sylvia felt a little overwhelmed.
She even started to feel sleepy, perhaps due to the pleasant weather.
Moments before she was about to doze off, she suddenly heard someone scoff.
Aunt Wanda suddenly stopped talking and both Aunt Tonya and Sebastian‘s expressions suddenly changed.
Sylvia was alerted by this and woke up. Something told her to turn to the living room where she immediately

She was taken aback by this display, so she smiled and asked,” Isabel, what‘s the matter?”
“You told me that you were going to play with me and my brother when you came back. Why are you sitting here
with them? Don‘t you want to play with us?” Her voice grew fiercer as she went on
It seemed like her rage was boiling over.
Sylvia seemed astonished.
It was not so much that she did not want to play with them, she had merely forgotten.
She had nearly forgotten that she had three children.
She hurriedly explained, “Isabel, I‘m very sorry, I just wanted to hear what Aunt Tonya was talking about. I promise
it‘s not because I didn‘t want to play with you.”
Isabel was still very upset, “You‘re lying! I‘ve been watching you for a long time. You were almost about to fall
asleep. You weren‘t even listening to their conversation!”
Sylvia was silent.
Aunt Tonya and the rest of them were quiet as well.
There was a sort of awkward tension in the air for a moment until Isabel suddenly turned red and started to
scream with tears in her eyes, “You used to look for us the moment you came home every time!”
