"Ms. Lloyd, you haven't left yet?" "No, just overheard you guys..." "You heard wrong. We're quite busy. Take care." Without waiting for her response, they scampered off. Clearly, she wasn't going to get anything out of them. Sylvia sighed softly and left the boutique.
Initially, Sylvia had planned to head back to the Garcia residence and leave the suit with Naomi for safekeeping. But as soon as she got into her car, the school dean called.

I just want you to be happy. I'll cvisit," Sylvia consoled her.
Hearing this, Naomi burst into tears, a stark contrast to her earlier laughter at Bridget.
"Sylvia, please don't resent me. Edwin and I have prepared an apartment for you, in a great location." "That's great, thanks to you and Edwin. But I have to move out of the dorm tomorrow.
