Chapter 587

Raymond had no strength left to argue. The three siblings asked

Florence a few more questions about Sydney's condition and

finally felt reassured.

James then mentioned the gala scheduled for the following

evening. "Will Sydney attend?"

Diana shook her head. "Probably not.”

The original plan had been to use the gala, with its gathering of

high-society figures, to disown Megan completely and formally

announce Sydney's identity.

But with Eliana hospitalized at such a critical moment, Sydney

was unlikely to have any interest in attending a social event.

That was also why Florence had not mentioned the gala when

she went to Delta Mansion that evening. She did not want to put

Sydney in a difficult position. Unless the antidote could be

obtained and delivered to the hospital before the gala.
