~Sylvester~
I must admit that I was worried when Vino linked to inform me what had happened. Tamia wasn't beside me then, and I didn't want her to know what had happened because I knew she would be worried.
That was why I left without telling her.
When she arrived at the hospital, the look on her face made me know I was in trouble.
I knew she would punish me for not telling her directly.
I wondered which of my brothers told her. It definitely wasn't Dominic, so I suspected David.
I looked at him where he stood, and Knight growled a bit.
Everyone looked at me instantly, and I calmed down and plastered a fake smile.
"I am just mad about what happened," I said, and it was believable because everyone was mad about what had happened.
I returned my gaze to David, and my anger remained.
He would go home, and Nicole will be warm and loving towards him, but Tamia would give me hell for not informing her about the accident myself. I wasn't looking forward to the confrontation that would ensue.
I noticed Vino was acting weird, and I suspected it had something to do with that doctor because she had no reason to go and speak to him when he stepped out.
Amanda was a doctor, so I suspected Claudia went to the same medical school as Amanda. Maybe Vino knew her from there.
I did not want to be nosey, but I knew he would tell me if it was something serious.
It was finally time to return to Lucland.
Vino wanted to stay behind, but I insisted he returns with us and told him he could visit the hospital in daylight.
I wasn't going to take any chances. I did not want to lose anyone.
Vino grumbled a bit but soon agreed.
He seemed desperate to stay, which might have something to do with Claudia, but I did not bother to ask, so he won't give me a valuable reason to stay.
Dominic, our big brother, told him it was a must to return with us.
David agreed.; We all had the same worry.
Amelia was the only one at an advantage, and she belonged to Leo, and Leo did not like Vino.
I doubted the bad blood would go anytime soon.
Leo hated the Lawrences initially, then found out about Amanda and Vino which made him lose it.
It served him right because he wasn't a saint either, but all were bygones now, and we were now family, Leo inclusive, but the man wouldn't let it go. I wasn't comfortable leaving my younger brother at his mercy.
Leo and Amelia remained in the hospital to watch Avery and Marcel recover.
Amelia was our best bet right now because she was immune to silver. If those freaks tried to attack again, she would have an advantage.
Theodore and Linda opted to follow us home. It was amazing to see how Leo recovered quickly from the attack.
Theo was still weak, but Leo was already back to a hundred per cent. It was as if they did not inhale the same amount of silver. I planned to look into it later, but I would have to be satisfied that everyone survived except for the kappa driver and escort, who were mutilated by the bastards.
We arrived at the Mansion, and Tamia and I headed straight to our wing while the others went to theirs. I knew Max would be in knots, so I asked David to tell him what happened and assure him Leo and Amelia were okay. It was the least I could do.
"Sylvester, I am glad you are back. I am coming to see you in your room," I heard my mother in my head, and I grumbled a bit.
I was tired, but I could not tell her no.
It was normal that she would be worried. It was normal that everyone would be concerned.
