He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 646

At first, she had agreed and promised to keep him away.

But it didn't take long for her to realize that raising a child was exhausting and restrictive. So, she simply packed Caleb off to Kane in secret.

She hadn't mentioned it to a soul.

And with the Flynn family dealing with crisis after crisis lately, no one had bothered to ask about the boy’s whereabouts.

She never expected Yardley to suddenly bring it up now.

Sylvia knew that if she confessed the truth, Yardley would view her as a cold-blooded, heartless mother.

So, she smoothly slipped into her victim persona, her voice trembling with manufactured tears.

"Yardley... Caleb... while I was locked up, I don't know how Kane found out about his parentage, but he just came and took him! By the time I got out, it was a done deal."

"I... I'm powerless against someone like Kane, you know that. I hate him more than anything. How could I possibly still be in contact with him?"

Yardley gripped his phone so hard his knuckles turned white, pure rage practically burning through the line.

"You're still lying to me! Sylvia, I am so incredibly disappointed in you!"

"Scarlett sent me the recording of your phone call. A voice changer can alter the pitch, but it can't hide your speech patterns and pacing! I know it was you! Are you still going to deny it?"

Even through the phone, Sylvia could feel the terrifying heat of his fury.

She couldn't believe it. Even though he and Scarlett were divorced, he was still fiercely protecting her. Protecting her to the point where all it took was one recording for him to instantly turn his wrath on Sylvia.

A massive wave of twisted resentment washed over Sylvia, and she yelled back defensively.
