Chapter 699
Sylvia frowned, but before she could wrap her head around the situation, she was shrouded by an
elongated shadow from the back.
She froze for a split second and then quickly turned around.
Thomas was a few steps away from her, wearing a grin and looking at her with a warm expression.
At the next moment, he asked, “Have you seen the texts?”
The sun was hanging high up in the sky. It was a scorching hot summer day. His eyes were as warm as
before but she felt otherwise. She was quivering in fear and sweating nervously. She feigned ignorance
and asked, “Thomas , where are Aunt Tonya and the kids?” “They are in another car.”
“Where’s that?”

“I can take care of them myself. Tell me where’s the car.”
Thomas went closer and stroked her head. His smile
remained as he said, “Don’t worry. When we reach the airport, you’ll be able to see them.”
Sylvia feigned a silly smile and said, “They aren’t used to traveling abroad. Aunt Tonya has airsickness
. I have to give them some pills before we board.”
“Don’t worry. I’m sure someone will take care of that as well. I’m sure they’ll travel comfortably.”
“I know you’ll take care of them but if Isabel and Liam don’t see me, they’ll throw a tantrum.”
“I’m sure they’re sleeping now and I assure you the first thing they see when they open their eyes is
you.”
Sylvia’s expression changed. “What did you give them?!” Thomas stroked her head again and said
softly, “Some candy to make them sleep. It won’t harm them, don’t worry.”
Sylvia was worried sick!
Her kids were her whole world!
She threw a sucker punch at him, trying to force him to hand over Aunt Tonya and the kids.
However, her punch was stopped in mid-air.
She followed up with a second punch but it was stopped too.
His hands were surprisingly huge given his slender
figure. He was able to catch both her hands easily.
He was strong, so strong that Sylvia could not retract her fists.
Sylvia widened her eyes in realization.
Thomas was not weak at all. He had been pretending to be weak from the start to lie to her!

Westchester City with me. If you don’t keep your promise, I’m going to be mad.”
The horrific realization put tears in Sylvia’s eyes.
Her voice trembled as she said, “I promise you, I’ll leave with you. Please let Aunt Tonya and my kids
go!”
Thomas raised his bandaged left hand and stroked her cheek near the edge of her eye. “As long as
you leave with me, I’ll give you everything.”
Sylvia stared at him with utmost anticipation. “Then, can you release Aunt Tonya and my kids?”
“There’s a junction near the airport. I’ll let you see them when we’re there. Feel free to bring them along
but if you’re having a second thought, I can send them back to Odell.”
Sylvia nervously said, “Okay, okay! I’ll leave with you.”
Thomas grinned and kissed her sweaty forehead.
