Chapter 854
A few days later, there was a snowstorm in Westchester City that lasted from the evening until the next
morning.
When Sylvia woke up, she saw a thick layer of snow everywhere outside.
Unfortunately, she was still recovering from giving birth and could not go out
She could only look through the window and watch Isabel rolling snowballs outside, her chubby face
flushed from playing. She was obviously tired, but she did not forget to call out to Liam, asking him to
help her with this and that.
Aunt Tonya and Sebastian were worried about their safety, so they played with them in the yard.
The little girl brought the party to the yard by herself, and Aunt Tonya and Sebastian laughed at her
antics.
Even little Flinty, whom Sylvia was holding in her arms, was staring at them with big, shiny eyes.
Sylvia could not help but smile.
It was not until a while later that Skylar suddenly walked in from outside.
Sylvia was stunned and stood up with Flint in her arms.
Skylar greeted Aunt Tonya and Sebastian in the yard before walking in.
“Ms. Ross, I didn’t disturb you by suddenly coming over, did I?” Skylar asked with a smile.
Sylvia smiled back at her. “Of course not. Please have a seat.”
She sat at a small table by the window with an empty chair across from her.
Skylar did not stand on ceremony and sat down instantly. When she saw Flint in Sylvia’s arms, she
gave a warm, maternal smile. “Is this the little Young Master? He’s so adorable.”
Sylvia laughed. “His name is Flint.”
“That’s a good name. Who came up with it?”
“It was Liam.”
“Your other son is very extraordinary too.”
“Hehe, you flatter me.”
With that opening conversation, Sylvia and Skylar launched into small talk.
Skylar mostly drove the conversation using questions. First, she asked about the children, then she
asked if Sylvia had been feeling down in the past few days after giving birth.
Sylvia knew that she had specifically come to understand her current situation, but she did not avoid
any of Skylar’s questions.
After chatting for a long time, Skylar said, “Ms. Ross, you seem to be in a much better place than the
last time I saw you. It seems that the medicine that healed you isn’t just the children but also Master
Carter.”
She smiled teasingly.
Sylvia’s cheeks heated up. “Maybe.”
She also felt that since Odell and she laid everything out on the table after the birth, she had been very
relaxed every day for the past few days.
“Hehe, I hope you’ll keep it up. I have to go back to the clinic now, so I won’t disturb your rest.” Skylar
stood up after speaking.
Sylvia could not get up while holding Flint, so she said to Wanda who was next to her, “Aunt Wanda,
please help me see Ms. O’Brien off.”
“Yes, ma’am.” Wanda went up to Skylar and sent her out the door before returning.
Flint was asleep again.
Sylvia carried him back to the bedroom, intending to nap with him for a while. However, just as she was
lying on the bed with the baby in her arms, her cell phone dinged beside her pillow.
She picked up the phone. As soon as she turned on the screen, she saw a message from a black and
white avatar. “How have you been doing lately?”
Sylvia went pale and blocked the number without thinking. Then, she turned her phone off and tucked it
under her pillow.
She had unblocked him on New Year’s Eve night, asking if he had released Aunt Tonya. Then, she was
so anxious while waiting for news of Aunt Tonya and suddenly fainted and went into labor the next day,
so she had forgotten to block him again.
Unexpectedly, he was now sending her a message!
Sylvia was angry and scared. She was afraid of being hauled to Galston again and terrified of returning
to that cold castle and dark room.
Shivering, she lay down under the covers again, holding little Flint tightly in her arms.
Meanwhile, after Skylar left the old Carters’ residence and got into her car, she took out her phone to
call Odell.
