Chapter 145: The Scott Family.
"What the hell?" Ivy gasped as she continued to read the article.
The news had touched every part of their lives. Her mother's death, the
depression, Geo's existence, her father's betrayal.
Ivy's hand shook a little as she left the page and checked another. This one had a whole article on her entire family, including Rita!
She shook her head, sinking into the couch. Silas rushed to her side, his voice and eyes filled with concern. Despite their recent intimacy, her body still reacted to his touch.
"Are you okay?" he asked, his hands possessively on her waist.
"The news..." she said, unable to continue.
"Yes?" he said, his voice gentle.
Ivy looked into his eyes, losing her breath for a moment. "It... was... supposed to be a secret."
Silas's brow furrowed. "Okay."
She sighed and then told him everything. When she was done, she expected him to be mad that she had thought Thomas was responsible for her mother's death, but instead, he hugged her tightly.
"It's okay. You didn't know."
She settled in his arms until the door opened. They both lifted their heads toward the direction and watched as Uncle Mike and Theresa came in.
"My baby," Theresa said, running to Ivy's side. "How are you doing?"
Ivy left Silas's arms and went to hug Theresa. "I'm good. How are you?"
"I am good too," Theresa said with a smile. She turned to Silas. "How are you doing man?"
"Good, just there," Silas said, crossing his legs.
Ivy straightened up and walked to Uncle Mike, giving him a hug too.
"Ivy dearest," Uncle Mike said with a warm smile.
"Where is Rosie?" Theresa asked as she sat next to Silas.
"She went inside," Ivy answered, "she needed to rest."
"I can imagine how she must be feeling," Uncle Mike said, sitting down too.
"What is Wade saying?" Theresa asked, turning to Silas, a frown drawn on her face.
From everyone's countenance, Ivy could tell that they were about to get into some serious family talk.
"Excuse me," she said, heading towards the hallway.
