Chapter 676
Sylvia hurriedly asked, “Are you sick?” Thomas was silent for a few seconds before he replied, “Yeah, | caught a slight cold, but | already took some medicine.”

She felt that something was strange. ‘If he only caught a cold, why had he taken so long to reply?’ She asked bluntly, “Have you eaten dinner?”

He paused for another two seconds before saying, “Yeah.” “What did you eat?” “Steak and red wine.” “Didn’t you take medicine for your cold? How could you still drink red wine?” He was silent. Sylvia was exasperated. “Why aren’t you saying anything?” “I’m a bit sleepy, so I’ll hang up now.”

Then, he ended the call.

Sylvia clutched her phone. ‘He must have gone on a hunger strike.’ After mulling it over in her mind for a while, she got up and walked outside. In the living room, Aunt Tonya was watching TV with Isabel. Liam sat next to them, reading a book

Seeing her hurry downstairs, Aunt Tonya asked, “What’s wrong, Syl? Are you going out?” “Yeah.” Sylvia looked at the two little ones and quickly said, “Aunt Tonya, | might not be back until late. You and the children can go ahead and rest first. There’s no need to wait for me to come back.”

Then, she said to the children, “Isabel and Liam, please listen to Aunt Tonya and go to bed early.” Isabel replied obediently, “Okay.” Liam also hummed in reply.
