Chapter

62

She really needed someone to talk to, someone like the father of her babies. But when she reached home that evening, Kage was still not back.

She waited, not having the zeal to even eat. She kept listening for the sound of the gates opening, but nothing was happening.

Westley called, but he wasn't the one she wanted to talk to. Her head was messed up already to act normal beside a man who was a possible murderer. It was Kage she needed. She called Kage severally, but it was either his line wasn't connecting, or he wouldn't pick up.

She really needed to talk to him about his aunts. She was losing her mind over it and didn't know what to do.

It was ten p.m when her call was finally answered. Unfortunately, it wasn't Kage that spoke up

Sylvie's heart skipped in her chest. Her eyes found the wall clock. He was with Lana by that time?

"You've been calling for like a hundred years, Sylvie. Now, your call is finally answered, don't act like you dumb," Lana snapped.

"He's been with me the whole time. I needed his company, and he granted my wish."

Another skip in Sylvie's heart. She gulped hard, pulling her sleeping jacket tighter.

"Can I... speak with him?"

"Oh, sorry, love, he's in the shower, and I'm not sure he'd want to speak to you so late at night. Just give it a rest, Sylvie you're disrupting a good moment.

The call ended. Sylvie's heart beeped along with the sound, a lump forming in her throat
