Chapter 10

At Sylvia’s residence, after sending Liam off, she brought Isabel inside and spent the better half of the day coaxing her. No matter what she did, the kid continued pouting and was in a dismal mood.

Sylvia was running out of ideas.

It was right then that Isabel’s phone rang. Liam was calling.

She immediately picked up the call. Sylvia could not tell what was said on the other end of the phone, but a wide smile quickly surfaced on the kid’s face and she immediately beamed with joy.

She was chanting repeatedly, “Okay, okay, let’s meet tomorrow!”

Sylvia was clueless.

Shortly after, Isabel hung up the phone and jumped into Sylvia’s arms while exclaiming enthusiastically, “Mommy, Brother will pick me up tomorrow, and we will play at his house! He told me that there is no need to worry because he won’t let them find out that I’m your dear daughter and that I’m his sister.”

Sylvia was shocked by this piece of information.

She never expected Liam to take such an approach. Perhaps things would turn out fine. Considering their combined wit, the old madam probably would not discover Isabel’s true identity.

Isabel was already hopping up and down with excitement.

There was not much Sylvia could say or do by this point. She could only put Isabel to bed so that she could get enough rest for the next morning.

The next morning, the two bodyguards who always accompanied Liam arrived. Sylvia spoke to Isabel briefly before sending her to the car. The car quickly drove out of the neighborhood and arrived at the Carters’ in less than half an hour.

Isabel’s eyes widened as she curiously surveyed her new surroundings.

So, this was where her brother lived.

Soon, she saw Liam standing by the door. Liam was wearing a neat little suit and stood like a mighty statue. A faint smile appeared on his face when he saw Isabel.

He had been waiting for her arrival. “Brother!” Isabel immediately lunged at him.
