Chapter 679 Isabella Wants to Negotiate

"I know Mommy's doing fine, she's safe," Lucy blinked and said. "So I shouldn't have gotten mad at you last night and yelled."

Kelvin was a bit taken aback.

Today had been a whirlwind.

In the morning, he and Penelope went to the hospital to deal with Debra's situation.

In the afternoon, they took the kids to the water park.

So, there was no time today for Lucy to have a video call with "Mommy," but suddenly, Lucy believed his story and even apologized.

What was going on?

Did Sam really have such great skills? What exactly did he say to Lucy?

Lucy muttered to herself, "But I still miss Mommy, I want to see her, and I don't know when she'll come home."

Lucy then comforted herself, saying, "It's okay, as long as she's having fun."

"Where exactly is Mommy? It feels like I just saw her, but also like I haven't seen her in forever." Lucy shook her little head, getting more confused the more she thought about it.

"I'm sleepy, Thalia." She tugged on Penelope's sleeve. "I want to go to bed."

"Okay, I'll take you to your room."

After playing for so long, Lucy was definitely tired.

Lying in bed, Lucy hugged her doll and mumbled, "Mommy, Mommy."

Penelope sat by the bed, watching over her until she was completely asleep, then left the room.

She went downstairs and saw Kelvin standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, on the phone.

"Got it," he said in a low voice. "I'll be there in a bit. Keep a close eye on things over there, don't let anything go wrong."

Penelope walked over and silently looked at him.

It wasn't until he hung up the phone that she asked, "Is it news from the Walker family?"
