“Aunt Kelly, our plan failed.”
“We’re lucky that Matilda did not rat us out. I’m warning you, you better not mess up again, or I will kill you!”
Kelly, who had been in trepidation for the past two days, grew angry when her niece mentioned it again.
They were indeed in dire straits.
When their plan had failed, they did not expect Sebastian to put an end to the Emmanuels. He even handed over his aunt to the police.
Thanks to her quick thinking, Kelly had gotten someone to pacify Matilda and promised her the safety of the Emmanuels. Otherwise, she and her niece would not be where they were now if Matilda had confessed.
Kelly was bogged down by it.
Xandra stopped talking and repeatedly looked at the book in her hand. She stared at the word that was in the book—schizophrenia.
Schizophrenia. Her guess was right.
The man had a skeleton in the cupboard, so why should they still be suppressed by him? After all, the cards were in their hands now.
She stroked the word with her red nails, and a satisfying smile spread across her face.
Sasha slept soundly that night, probably because she had a load off her mind. Besides, she had not fully recovered yet, considering she had just fled from the hospital.
When she woke up the next day, it was a particularly bright day for her.
“Ian, shall we wait for Mommy to have calzone together?”
“Yes, it’s Christmas Eve today.”
She could hear the soft voices of children whispering in the quiet room.
Sasha sat up in bed and saw two children sitting on the mat near the window in her bedroom.
One was a handsome and cool child, and the other was cute and innocent.
It was Ian and Vivian.
Sasha got out of bed and said, “Good morning, my dear children.”
“You’re finally up, Mommy.” At the sound of her voice, Vivian quickly got up from the mat and dashed towards her.
Sasha bent over and cuddled her daughter, and then she looked at her eldest son who was walking towards her.
“I’m sorry, I overslept. Have you both eaten yet?”
“Not yet. It’s Christmas Eve, so Ms. Dolivo made some calzone. But Grandpa and that bad woman are here. Do you want to go down, Mommy?” Vivian asked as she blinked her big eyes.
Sasha was startled.
Grandpa and the bad woman?
Who?
