Lying Tongue, Truthful Eyes.
~Tamia~ I could feel Sylvester’s uneasiness about my trip to the western village.
I did not know how to tell him I could never leave him.
After our discussion, he insisted that we visit Larry.
He wanted to get to the bottom of the matter, and I needed to figure out how to stop him from wasting his time.
I was feeling nauseous, so I went to the bathroom to throw up my stomach’s content.
Sylvester rushed to the bathroom, a bit worried.
He carried me to the shower and turned on the water while he took off my clothes.
“I noticed you were slightly warm last night but didn’t think much of it.
Now you are burning up.
What is happening?” he asked me calmly, and I could see he was fighting every fibre of his being from acting out.
“It started after we had tea and biscuits yesterday afternoon.
I threw it all up and felt better, but the nausea is back,” I managed.
The water was soothing, and I wanted to stay under it.
“Who served the snacks?” He asked, and I knew what he wanted to imply, so I shook my head.
“I doubt they did anything to the food, darling.
I made the person that served it taste it,” I said, withholding the person’s name, and he was silent.
Once I was calm, he carried me to the bed.
“You can’t go to Brighton tomorrow in this condition,” he said, and I smiled because I was already feeling better.
“Nice try, Alpha,” I said and touched his nose.
He did not smile.
Let me call the doctor?” he said, and I knew how important going to Brighton was, so I shook my head and sat up, pretending to be strong.
“I feel better.
You will be wasting your time.
I believe the stress caused it, and something might have irritated my stomach from breakfast.
Come on.
Let us visit Larry.” I said, and he frowned at me for a bit before finally accepting.
We got dressed and left the room.
The moment we walked past Stephanie’s room, I became nervous.
“Where do you think your mother went to?” I asked, and Sylvester shook his head.
“I do not know, and honestly, I can’t be bothered.
No matter who she brings to plead with me to let Dominic go, I won’t listen.
Sadly, she does not understand the gravity of Dominic’s offence,” he said, and I touched his hands.
1 “I do not think your brother did it, Sylvester.
I believe him.
He is too proud to beg like that.
Someone wants him to take the fall.
We need to question Bryce, not Larry, and you must ensure the council does not get their hands on Dominic.
If they do, he would be found guilty.
I doubt they would go through the stress of finding the truth.
See how they handled the matter that concerned you.
They did not do any investigation to figure out what was going on.
They tried to blame you for the crime.
