Sylvia pursed her lips and asked, “Aunt Tonya, how were Isabel and Liam last night?”
Aunt Tonya sighed and said, “They’ve been waiting for you since they came home from school in the
evening. They refused to eat until Odell came by and said that you were busy outside. However, when
they woke up this morning and you still weren’t at home, they said they won’t go to school until they
see you.”
Sylvia’s eyes flickered. “Tell them that I’m fine. I’m going back now.”
“Okay, I’ll tell them right now.”
Sylvia hung up the phone and turned around to get out of
bed.
However, her body was weaker than she thought, and her legs felt like jello.
She could only walk slowly toward the door.
When she reached the door, her knees suddenly buckled, and her body fell toward the ground.
At that moment, a long and slender figure arrived in front of her and held onto her.
Sylvia leaned in his arms and smelled the faint scent of
his cologne. It was refreshing and not pungent at all. She took a breath and tried to get out of his arms.
However, Thomas held her shoulder tightly and looked at her intently. “You haven’t recovered yet. You

Sylvia knew that he cared about her and said with a smile, “Thank you, Thomas , but I’m much better
now. Isabel and Liam are still at home waiting for me. I have to go back and see them now.”
She pulled his hand away.
Thomas did not insist anymore. Instead, he held her arm and said, “I’ll send you back.”
His tone was firm.
Sylvia smiled. “Okay.”
“Wait here for me.”
“Mm.”
He went to another room and brought back a thick men’s coat.
The coat was on the smaller side. It was clear that he deliberately picked it out for her.

“Okay.” Sylvia looked at him gratefully and added, “But you don’t have to wash my clothes for me. I’ll
just take them back now.”
Thomas pursed his lips. “They’re already in the washing machine,”
“I see.” She did not say anything else and stepped out,
Thomas quickly followed her, holding her arm with one hand to prevent her from walking insteadily.
Sylvia did not refuse.

After she sat tight, he started the car.
The car drove out of this residential area and headed toward the other side of Westchester City.
After they passed several traffic lights, Sylvia suddenly remembered that she had not told him her
address. She said, “My place is near the Art Academy.” She looked at the road ahead and added,
“You’re on the right path. There’s no need to turn. Just go straight ahead.”
Thomas’ cold eyes flickered, “Got it.”
The journey was silent, and half an hour later, the car stopped at the entrance of her house.
Sylvia ate medicine and drank a lot of water on the way
over, so her physical strength was much better than when she was in his home.
She opened the car door herself and walked down, saying to him quickly, “I’m much better, Thomas.
You can go now.”
Thomas looked at her more-or-less healthy complexion and hummed.
Then, she walked to the front door of her house.
He stared at her back for a few moments before turning the car around and leaving.
Meanwhile , not long after Sylvia came back, two small figures ran out of the living room one after the
other.
“Mommy!” Isabel was the first to rush to her. Her chubby face was full of longing and worry for Sylvia.
Liam came right after her. It was not hard to see the same look in his eyes as well.
Sylvia’s heart warmed, and she bent down to hold them in her arms.
