Chapter 68

Tristan was absent from the studio for the entire day, and Sylvia felt a lot more comfortable without his
presence.

It was then time to pick her kids up from kindergarten.

She drove while Isabel and Liam chatted incessantly in their baby seats in the rear.

Then, her phone rang. It was Aunt Tonya. It was rare for Aunt Tonya to call her at this hour, which
sparked her curiosity.

She stopped the car by the side of the road and picked up the phone.

Aunt Tonya’s voice came through the phone, fueled with anxiety and anger. “Syl! Sonia is here with a
couple of men, and she’s throwing out things out!”

Sylvia reacted grimly. She said, “Aunt Tonya, take care of yourself first. I’ll be right there.”

After hanging up, she floored the pedal and sprinted back

Liam and Isabel sensed that something was not right.

“Mommy, what’s wrong?” Liam asked. “Something happened but it’s nothing serious. You guys don’t
have to worry,” Sylvia said.

Liam saw the nervous look on her face through the rearview mirror. He blinked several times but did
not say anything else. A while later, the car arrived at the Old District and went straight to the Carters’.

Confused, Isabel asked, “Mommy, why are you bringing us here?”



“I have something urgent to deal with, so I have to send you guys home first. I’ll come to find you when
I have the time, and we can go out again,” Sylvia said with a smile.

She then brought the two of them down from the car.

Isabel noticed something was not right, hence the pout on her face.

Liam said goodbye to his mother before holding his sister’s hand and entering the house.

Sylvia watched the two of them go inside before she drove away.

When her car left, Liam and Isabel snuck out of the house.

“Brother, are we really going to follow Mommy?” Isabel asked.

“Aunt Tonya called Mommy just now. Something must have happened to them. I’m calling Uncle Jacob
and Uncle Ben,” Liam answered.

“Okay.”

When Sylvia reached home, she saw that the place was in a mess. All her things were scattered
across the floor, including her clothes and the cooking utensils that Aunt Tonya used to prepare meals.

Aunt Tonya was waiting at the entrance. She went up to Sylvia the moment the car stopped in front of
the house.

“Syl, this is too much. Sonia is being terribly unreasonable. She brought her men in and started to ruin
our things. I couldn’t even stop her.” Sylvia had a glance at the mess before she went inside with a grim
look. Inside the living room, Sonia was sitting on the couch like a princess. She even used one of
Sylvia’s new dresses as a cushion.



Sylvia was a lot more mature after what she had been through in the past few years, but this scene
infuriated her nonetheless.

She maintained her last bit of politeness and said with clenched teeth, “Sonia, get out. You are not
welcome here.”

Sonia then shoved the new tea set on the table to the ground. She raised a brow at her sister and
arrogantly said, “What if I don’t want to? What can you possibly do?” The intimidating group of men that
she brought over immediately rallied behind her. “You’re absurd!” Aunt Tonya almost threw herself at
Sonia.
