Chapter 158

At six in the afternoon, after saying goodbye to the crew, Sylvia looked at Mollie's white Benz and

smiled. "Mollie, do you mind giving me a ride?"

Mollie blinked her eyes and was stunned.

She didn't open the door for Sylvia until a while later, "Miss Andrews, get in, please."

It felt like winning a pride.

She looked proud, staring at Jenna, who was not far away from them. "Jenna, did you see? Miss

Andrews is taking my ride today."

Jenna looked at Sylvia with disappointment and her eyes turned a bit red.

Aldo hurriedly comforted her, "Miss Andrews just had dinner with us a few days ago, right? Don't be

sad. I will invite you and Miss Andrews to field sketching tomorrow. What do you think?"novelbin

They had a break tomorrow.

They had been exhausted these days, so Sylvia decided to give them a day off.

Jenna's eyes lit up and she looked at Aldo as if he was her hero. "Really, Aldo?"

"Of course," Aldo rubbed her head and helped her into the car.

Seeing this, Sylvia, who was in the Benz, couldn't help but smile.

It seemed that Aldo was really concerned about Jenna. He even held her hand to help her into the car.

Mollie said to Sylvia in excitement, "Miss Andrews, what are you having for dinner? Do you want to

come to my place?"

"No, thanks." Sylvia looked out of the window.

She got off the car at a mall near the Andrews Residence.

Mollie looked at her and said, "Miss Andrews, do you want to go shopping? I can shop with you. I have

a good taste!"

"No, thanks."

She refused again, which broke Mollie's heart.

She had to hold back the disappointment inside, "Okay then."

Everyone looked up to the strong, and so did Mollie.

She envied Sylvia and wanted to be as good as her, but she wasn't jealous of her.

She came from a family of soldiers, after all. Although she felt superior and had a bad temper, she was

not a bad person.

She always worked hard for what she wanted to get.

Years later, when she stood in front of her troop and the soldiers were looking at her with admiration,

she said to them, "My idol, Miss Andrews, inspired me."

...

Sylvia bought some desserts for her grandma and some nutritious food.

Then, she went to the Andrews Residence.

The Andrews were having dinner when she arrived unexpectedly.

Otto was displeased to see her and acted like a tough head of the family. "You should have called

before you came. We didn't cook your food."

"Yes, Sylvia. We didn't have enough food for you." For some reason, Skyla was avoiding making eye

contact with Sylvia and seemed flustered.

Skyla found it more difficult to handle Sylvia. Also, when she saw Sylvia, she somehow winced

inwardly. However, since Sylvia's grandmother was here, she believed Sylvia dared not do anything to

her.

"I'm not having dinner here. I will leave after seeing grandma."

Sylvia didn't even bother to argue with them. They were so annoying.

However, she looked around the dining room and didn't see Kira there.

"Where's my grandma?"

Sylvia frowned.

"She..."

Under her intimidating gaze, Otto stuttered.

Skyla hurriedly said, "Your father has gotten her into a tour group for the elders. She's traveling."

Sylvia arched her eyebrows.

She didn't say anything, but she sensed something amiss.

No matter what, it was annoying to look at them.

She put down the gifts and was about to leave when she heard Tammy's words behind her, "Sylvia,

why didn't you go to work in the hospital? I haven't seen you even once in the hospital. Did you lie

about your work? If you aren't a doctor, you'd better tell the truth. I still remember Mr. Wilson nailed

your lies and embarrassed us so much last time."

She said it as if Sylvia was just a vain woman who boasted about herself and humiliated her parents.

Sylvia looked at Tammy, who wore a complacent smile and sat next to her parents, and said, "I didn't

know you have been looking forward to seeing me at work."

Tammy gave a disdainful smile, "Unfortunately, you don't have any work."

Sylvia sneered and said, "It doesn't matter. Mr. Wilson will come to beg me one day."

"Sylvia, are you out of your mind? Mr. Wilson begs you?" Tammy laughed as if she had heard a joke.

Otto's and Skyla's faces turned livid.

None of them said a word.

Sylvia glanced at them, turned around, and left.

She had said it. It was none of her business if Tammy didn't believe her.

Just as she took several steps, she heard someone coughing.

She stopped in her tracks and looked at the stairway. "Who was coughing?"

Otto hurriedly said, "It's the housekeeper; she's sick."

He avoided making eye contact with Sylvia, who noticed it and spoke.

"Why are you guilty then?"

"Do you think he will lie to you? He's managing a company," Skyla forced a smile and said, "You are

always busy. You haven't eaten anything yet, right? You should take care of yourself."

Skyla was trying to drive Sylvia away.

In Sylvia's eyes, obviously, they were hiding something from her.

Sylvia said expressionlessly, "Since the housekeeper is sick, Tammy, you are a nurse, go check if she's

alright. Come on, Tammy. Let me see what you can do."

"Don't worry about it," Otto said immediately, "Tammy has checked for her."

"Is that so?" Sylvia smiled, "What did you prescribe her?"

Tammy was stunned and thought of what Skyla had said to her. It was not the housekeeper who was

sick at all, it was grandma... But they couldn't let Sylvia know it for now.

Seeing the look in Skyla's eyes, Tammy immediately got the hint. "She's just sick. I gave her some

coldrex tablets."

"Well, you are only a nurse after all. She just coughed violently and there seemed to be phlegm in her

throat. I suppose she has pneumonia."

After saying that, she was about to walk upstairs.
