Chapter 918
A smile instantly appeared on Isabel‘s face.
Liam seemed delighted to hear this as well.
Noticing that the two of them were
feeling better, Sylvia smiled and asked, “By the way, what‘s your name?”
Isabel‘s smile was instantly wiped away and her eyes began to well up again.
Liam instantly became stoic as well and his mouth pursed up in unhappiness.
Sylvia patted Isabel‘s head, afraid of saying the wrong thing,”
Uh….”
“Hmph, stinky Mommy, you don‘t even know my name anymore!” Isabel turned and ran away.
“My name is Liam Carter, and my sister‘s name is Isabel Ross.” Liam informed coolly before turning aro
und and chasing after Isabel.
Sylvia froze again.
Liam Carter, Isabel Ross.
How was it that both siblings had different surnames?
She let these questions sit inside her head and searched around until she found Aunt Tonya in the larg
est bedroom.
Aunt Tonya was taking care of Flint alongside two matron
nurses,
Flint was sleeping soundly on the bed.
As soon as Sylvia came in, the two matron nurses stepped out of the room to offer her some privacy.
Sylvia approached Aunt Tonya and sat down next to her on the couch positioned right next to Flint‘s be
d, “Aunt Tonya, please tell me about what happened in the last nine years.”
Aunt Tonya stared at her blankly and asked, “Sylvia, do you really not remember a single thing at all?”
Sylvia was worried that Aunt Tonya would think that she had lost her mind if she mentioned that she ha
d come here from the past so she just said, “No, I don‘t.”
“Well, okay.” Aunt Tonya sighed and took her hand, “A lot happened in the past
nine years, I guess I‘ll start with the night everything started between you and Odel…”
Her gentle voice rang out inside the spacious and cozy room.
Meanwhile, inside an elegantly decorated cafe in the old district.
Odell and Skylar sat facing each other across a table right next to the window.
He was describing Sylvia‘s symptoms of memory loss and enquired, “Do you know what‘s going on?”
It was the first time that Skylar had encountered such a bizarre scenario as well. After
considering for a moment, she felt like
she had to ask, “Master Carter, are you sure that she did not sustain any significant injuries to her head
?”
“I am certain that there is nothing wrong with her physical state.”
Sylvia had undergone two full–body examinations
yesterday. The first time was when she had been taken to the hospital and the other had been after she
was found unconscious. He had specifically instructed the doctors to perform an examination on her
brain but they had not found any issues with her.
“She was doing fine the
last time I saw her. The second master took her away for a day but I doubt that he could do
anything to wipe away nine years of memory.” Skylar speculated , “Could it be that I missed something?
Odell was very understanding, “Don‘t worry, take your time and think about it.”
Skylar did exactly that.
After some time, she raised another question, “Master Carter, what is
the cutoff point of Mrs. Sylvia‘s memory?”
Odell frowned and informed, “It was on this night from nine years ago when both of us had been similarl
we spent the night in the hotel. She‘s only able to remember everything that led up to that point.”
“Why this night specifically?” Skylar asked again, “Could you tell me what happened that night?”
“After that night, my stepmother had someone barge into the room to catch me in the
same bed with her before forcing me to marry her.”
“And after that?”
“There was a big misunderstanding at the time because I thought she was in cahoots with my
stepmother. Even after we got married, I was indifferent and at times, even cruel to her. This lasted for
almost two years until I took Carter Corporation back into my hands
and banished my stepmother. I got together with another woman after that and due
to another misunderstanding, I had her locked up for half a year until she
gave birth. I then kicked her out after that.”
The more he spoke, the heavier his tone became.
Skylar sighed, “It seems to me that that night is something of a crucial turning point for Mrs. Sylvia.”
