Chapter 699

Sylvia frowned, but before she could wrap her head around the situation, she was shrouded by an elongated shadow from the

back.

She froze for a split second and then quickly turned around.

Thomas was a few steps away from her, wearing a grin and looking at her with a warm expression.

At the next moment, he asked, “Have you seen the texts?”

The sun was hanging high up in the sky. It was a scorching hot summer day. His eyes were as warm as before but she felt

otherwise. She was quivering in fear and sweating nervously. She feigned ignorance and asked, “Thomas , where are Aunt

Tonya and the kids?” “They are in another car.”

“Where's that?”

“Don’t worry. They're being taken care of,” he said with a smile.

“| can take care of them myself. Tell me where's the car.”

Thomas went closer and stroked her head. His smile

remained as he said, “Don’t worry. When we reach the airport, you'll be able to see them.”

Sylvia feigned a silly smile and said, “They aren't used to traveling abroad. Aunt Tonya has airsickness . | have to give them

some pills before we board.”

“Don't worry. I’m sure someone will take care of that as well. I’m sure they'll travel comfortably.”

“| know you'll take care of them but if Isabel and Liam don’t see me, they'll throw a tantrum.”

“I'm sure they’re sleeping now and | assure you the first thing they see when they open their eyes is you.”

Sylvia’s expression changed. “What did you give them?!” Thomas stroked her head again and said softly, “Some candy to make

them sleep. It won’t harm them, don’t worry.”

Sylvia was worried sick!

Her kids were her whole world!

She threw a sucker punch at him, trying to force him to hand over Aunt Tonya and the kids.

However, her punch was stopped in mid-air.

She followed up with a second punch but it was stopped too.

His hands were surprisingly huge given his slender

figure. He was able to catch both her hands easily.

He was strong, so strong that Sylvia could not retract her fists.

Sylvia widened her eyes in realization.

Thomas was not weak at all. He had been pretending to be weak from the start to lie to her!

Thomas lowered his head closer to her face and whispered, “Sylvia, you promised you’d leave Westchester City with me. If you

don’t keep your promise, I’m going to be mad.”

The horrific realization put tears in Sylvia’s eyes.

Her voice trembled as she said, “I promise you, Ill leave with you. Please let Aunt Tonya and my kids go!”

Thomas raised his bandaged left hand and stroked her cheek near the edge of her eye. “As long as you leave with me, I’ll give

you everything.”

Sylvia stared at him with utmost anticipation. “Then, can you release Aunt Tonya and my kids?” “There’s a junction near the

airport. I'll let you see them when we're there. Feel free to bring them along but if you’re having a second thought, | can send

them back to Odell.”

Sylvia nervously said, “Okay, okay! I'll leave with you.”

Thomas grinned and kissed her sweaty forehead.
