Chapter 69 Go to College
Sylvie had been waiting for Mila to wake up, trying to figure out what happened that year, but now hearing such news, she felt queer.
Grandpa was... Mommy's housekeeper?
What did this mean?
Then Mummy married her housekeeper's son...
"Mila, I could understand every word you said, but I couldn't get it when they were put together. I have so many questions in my mind that I want you to tell me all about them."
Mila looked at Sylvie lovingly. "You will understand all this, little lady, if you take back the box she left you."
With that, Mila closed her eyes wearily and fell asleep again.
The doctor came to examine Mila and wondered, "Miss Shaw, the patient has not been in good health, but she seems to have taken some pills, which kept the patient's heart from failing." Sylvie had felt Mila's pulse. As the doctor said, Mila had a life-saving pill in her body.
She hadn't even noticed it when she felt Mila's pulse half a month ago. The one who could manage to keep Mila alive for so many years must be adept at medical skills. She knew it was her mother.
Mila was supposed to have taken the life-saving pill Mommy gave her before she passed away ten years ago.
Sylvie felt that things were getting more and more complicated. It was as if she was shrouded by a huge net.
At this time, her phone rang.
It was Martin.
Sylvie didn't feel surprised that Martin would call her and asked about what had happened between Kieran and her.
Sylvie answered, "Hey, Dad."
"Sylvie, come home right now, I have something to ask you!" Martin snapped.
Sylvie raised her red lips. "Well, there's something I want to tell Dad, too."
In the Shaw family.
Sylvie first came to Kasper's room. He was still in a coma, but the last when she gave him an injection, he had been slowly restored his health. Sylvie gave him a second injection. Kasper was getting old, and he had been in a vegetative state for ten years, so he needed time to wake up. Sylvie put the needle away and watched him quietly. Mila said that Grandpa was Mommy's housekeeper. What did that mean?
Mila also said that Mommy came to SJ City... so, wasn't her Mommy a native of H City, but from somewhere else?
Who was "he" that made Mila tremble?
Martin arrived. "Sylvie, come to my study!"
Sylvie came to the study. Martin looked very sullen and asked, "Sylvie, do you know Kieran, the president of the Lowe Group? What is your relationship with him?"
"Dad, did Yanis tell you something, something like I swiped Kieran's black gold card, and Yanis sent you to ask me?"
Martin didn't deny it, "Yanis told me, and Yanis said you have Kieran's card. I remember that once Daisy held her birthday party at Dorsett Hotel, and the Hotel manager sent a Rolls-Royce to take you back. Have you already hooked up with Kieran?"
"Hook up?" Sylvie's glaring eyes brimmer with a sneer. "Dad, did you say that about Yanis trying to hook up with Kieran?"
"You two are different, Yanis is unmarried and you are married!"
"I can get divorced. Who don't you let me get divorced? Yanis and I are both your daughters. If either of us is with Kieran, you could be Kieran's father-in-law. What difference does it make?"
"You!"
There was a difference, of course. Martin thought. Sylvie was not his own daughter!
During this period of time, he had enjoyed the life the twelve billion had given him. Everywhere he went, he was surrounded by crowds of people. He was counting on his daughter Yanis to marry Kieran, so that he could be the father-in-law of the rich man.
Now Sylvie had hooked up with Kieran. Martin was very furious and worried that Sylvie would ruin his dreams.
"Anyway, Kieran belongs to Yanis, and Yanis is going to marry into the Lowe family to be Mrs. Lowe. Sylvie, you have to break up with Kieran and stop doing things you shouldn't be doing!"
In the face of Martin's scold, Sylvie
said lightly, "Dad, if I were you, I would pick the right side. Who would marry into the Lowe family depends on who Kieran likes. He doesn't like Yanis, who has just come back from Saint Medical School in Country F, but is smitten with me, a married woman. If you're not stupid, you'll know who you are going to bet on."
Martin was pissed off. At this time, Yanis opened the door and came in.
Yanis comforted Martin and said, "Dad, I know Sylvie misunderstands me, so she wants everything that's mine. Don't worry about Kieran, I know what to do."
Martin was very satisfied with Yanis.
He took a deep breath and looked back at Sylvie. "Sylvie, it's my fault that you're like this. I didn't pay much attention to you. Well, I will: send you to college. See Yanis, she graduated from Saint Medical
School, and now is
by
Prima Research Institute!"
Sylvie looked at Yanis. "You were enrolled by Prima Research Institute?"
"Yes, Sylvie, I haven't had time to tell you the good news. You know Prima Research Institute, right? I guess everyone knows it, and I have been admitted to this brilliant institute of Chinese Medicine." Yanis's eyes gleamed with pride.
Sylvie found it very interesting, and she said, "Dad, I'm going to Prima Research Institute, too."
"What?" Martin thought he had
misheard it, and rebuked her, "Are you dreaming? You want to go the Prima Research Institute? You only 19 and you haven't been admitted by any university. You are not even a university student, how Could Prima Research Institute admit you?"
Sylvie was young, and she just graduated from high school. It was crazy that she wanted to go to Prima Research Institute. Yanis cast her a scornful look, but she said gently, "Sylvie, we don't mean to look down on you, but you're not going to get enrolled." Sylvie didn't want to talk to the two jerks. "I have my way of getting enrolled. Yanis, let's meet at the Prima Research Institute!" With that, Sylvie left.
Martin said, "Yanis, don't pay attention to Sylvie. I think she's crazy. If she can get admitted, I'll have my name named backwards!"
Yanis went back to her room and called Shirley, "Shirley, let me tell you a joke. Just now Sylvie said that she was going to enter the Prima Research Institute. Wouldn't it be funny? It's such a stupid joke."☐☐☐☐☐
