Chapter 99

Kage left the hospital without seeing Lana. Since she was angry and in mourning, he knew things would gst messy if he went

in.

Sylvie comforted him, letting him know it wasn't his fault.

"You tried to stop her from drinking. If she hadn't been drunk, this probably wouldn't have happened," she told him.

Of course, she felt bad I for Lana. She could still remember the pain she had felt when she lost one of her babies. She simply didn't want Kage to think his separation from Lana was the reason she lost the child. Despite Lana's carelessness, no mother deserved to lose her child.

couldn't tell tell Kage the truth she'd been on the verge of revealing before Tana's call interrupted. When he asked her after they got home from the hospital, she'd found a suitable lie to say that was enough to get it off his mind. Just two days ago, he had learned that Lana cheated on him with his brother. Two days later, they lost the pregnancy. The losses was too much on him already, Sylvie considered it cruel to add to it. Perhaps, some day later, she'd tell e a tell him.

But what if Lancelot doesn't give you some day?' a voice whispered in her head.

Well, there was nothing she could do in that case. If Lancelot ended up revealing the truth to Kage before she gets the chance to.... Her life might just be doomed - like it's always been.

Sylvie's expected delivery date was in two weeks. She's been excited, as well as anxious.

In two weeks, she and Kage would get to hold their little bunnies, but at the same time, something could go wrong and take her happy vapours.

"My gosh! This place is awesome! I can't believe I've never been here!"

Things like designer bags, expensive jewelries and top gadgets weren't luxuries Cindy and her siblings could afford with their father's money. Cindy concluded her father was simply being greedy. Unfortunately, there nothing neither she or her siblings could do until they started making more of their own money.

pas "Goodness! This place almost doesn't seem real!" Cindy continued wowing. "Just take a look at the interiors, Sylvie. The management sure did a great job."

It was undeniably true. The place was extremely beautiful and spotless. Flawless. But her mind could hardly dwell on its beauty as it had more things that occupied it. It's been five days since Lana lost her pregnancy. Since then, Sylvie's been living in fear, wondering when Lancelot would
