Davin’s introduction took Sheila by surprise, for she thought there was something else going between him and Sylphiette.
Suddenly, Sheila burst out laughing, “And here I thought you hated me the most. I certainly didn’t expect this.”
Sheila then took another a good look at Sylphiette who was glaring murderously at Davin.
“I’m your brother’s girlfriend, Davin. How dare you speak of me like that!”
“As if my brother wanted to keep you around. You’re only here temporarily because he has no idea who you truly are yet. You’d better scram before I… “
Before Davin could finish, he noticed Juan and Kyle running in.
“Uncle Davin!” called Juan before he asked worriedly about his uncle injured leg.
It warmed Davin’s heart to see how concerned Juan was about his wellbeing.
“You are the best, my dear Juan. Come here and let me give you a big hug!”
Giggling, Juan climbed onto Davin’s bed and into his uncle’s embrace.
Davin then shifted his focus to Kyle who was just standing there as he coldly mocked his uncle, “This is what you get for driving recklessly in a sports car.”
“Come on, Kyle. Even your father didn’t say anything about it. Why do you talk to your uncle like that?”
“He’s got a point though. You wouldn’t have been gotten injured if you weren’t reckless, would you?” interrupted Sheila who was quite fond of how cold Kyle was.
The subject reminded Davin of Sylphiette as he glared at her.
I only got hit because someone made sure of it! It wasn’t a matter of recklessness, but alas, I’ve got no proof.
Davin’s glare made Sylphiette feel uncomfortable, so she forced a smile to bid her goodbye, “You guys carry on. I have other matters to attend to, so please excuse me.”
On her way out, Sylphiette bumped into Evan, who was making his way in through the door.
