Sylphiette’s eyes glowed with uncertainty. She had done so much to chase Nicole out of the house,
and those two idiots want to reverse all that? No freaking way!
“You two shouldn’t talk to your daddy about that. He won’t let your mommy move back in. Also,
remember how your daddy spanked you and locked you in the room to have you think about what you
did? He will hit you again if you mention your mommy.”
“No, he won’t. Daddy loves us, and he won’t hurt us!”
“He already did, didn’t he? Never talk about your mommy in front of him again, or he will lock you both
up and beat you so much that your butt will bleed. I’m saying this for your sake, understand?”
The two kids turned to one another before they cried simultaneously.
Sylphiette was surprised by that. Those two kids had always been ridiculously brave and had pulled
pranks on her time and again. So why are they crying so pitifully all of a sudden?
Were they frightened by what I said? Dang it. They are crying too loudly. What if Evan came out and
saw all that? How am I going to explain everything?
Sylphiette quickly cooed the kids, but nothing worked. She got so nervous that she threatened them
harshly.
“Stop crying or I will throw you into the pond and drown you!”
Juan and Kyle cried even louder upon hearing that. Grandma must be able to hear it, right? We’re so
loud.
“Y-you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? Shut up right now or I will throw you into the pond!”
“Who do you think you are to throw my babies into the pond?” roared a strict voice suddenly, and that
surprised Sylphiette.
She turned around and saw Sophia fuming as she ran over.
Why is she suddenly here? How much of that did she hear?
Sylphiette’s heart shivered.
“H-hi, what brings you here, Mrs. Seet? I was just playing and joking with the kids.”
Sylphiette was terrified, and she didn’t even dare to speak too loudly. Her heart felt like it was stuck in
her throat at the time.
“A joke? Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you joke about these things with my grandkids?”
demanded Mrs. Seet as she glared over.
“M-my name is Sylphiette, and I am Evan’s…”
“You’re his nothing! Evan… that is not how you should address him!”
Sylphiette had long heard about how Evan’s mother was direct and powerful. To top it off, it was said
that Evan’s mother showed no mercy, and it looked like the rumors were true.
What do I do now? How do I fix our relationship that got off on the wrong foot?
Sylphiette honestly couldn’t think of anything at that moment, and she knelt down under the pressure.
“I’m sorry, Mrs. Seet, please don’t be mad.”
That sudden act surprised Sophia. She didn’t expect that woman to be able to adapt that well. No
wonder my son is conned.
Evan and Davin got out of the study room at that moment and saw that. Both men were flabbergasted.
Davin secretly gasped. Holy… Mom really is something else. She got that woman down on her knees
right after showing up!
Evan was surprised too. He rushed over and asked Sylphiette what was going on.
Sylphiette’s eyes shone with tears, and she looked pitiful when she turned to Evan, then to Sophia.
Sylphiette then acted weak and claimed that she was wrong to have made such a terrible joke.
“You wanted to throw us into the pond and drown us.”
“She did! Such a witch!”
Juan and Kyle chimed in strategically, and that got Sylphiette to panic. She quickly explained, “Evan, I
was worried that you’d be burdened by it, so I asked them not to talk about Nicole. I wasn’t actually
going to throw them into the pond. That was just a joke.”
Evan’s eyes shone with a complex emotion when he heard Nicole’s name.
Sophia couldn’t be bothered to watch the woman act, so she immediately requested, “Shut up already.
Rose Garden is not for woman like you, so leave!”
“Evan, I-I don’t want to leave you.”
Evan shifted his gaze to Sylphiette, who looked pitiful at the time, and asked his mother to let it go just
that once.
