Chapter 8
Adeline couldn’t believe her ears upon hearing Sylvie’s words. Hence, she asked in utter disbelief,
“G-Granny?”
Meanwhile, Patricia nearly couldn’t hold back herughter. In her heart, she praised Sylvie, Well
done, Sylvie!
Isaac looked down as he heard Sylvie’s voice. His heart abruptly ached when he saw the pitiful
look on her little face. Then, he said coldly, “Have someone send Miss Aniston home!”
And thus, Liam walked to Adeline’s side. Then, he made a gesture as if saying, ‘after you, Miss
Aniston’.
Adeline got so mad that she red at Patricia in anger. However, in her heart, she thought, Did
you see that, Patricia?! This man here is my future husband. I won’t lower myself to the same level
as a shrew such as you.
Turning around, she left.
After seeing Adeline leave, Sylvie hugged Isaac’s thigh.

“Mr. Handsome, that Granny is so ugly! How about I introduce my lovely Mommy to you?”
With that, she pointed to Patricia and started introducing her. “She’s my lovely and fair-skinned
Mommy, Patricia Aniston!”
Upon hearing that, Isaac replied to her. “We met in the hospital thest time you were sick.”
“Oh, oh! Then do you like Tricia?”
Unlike Sylvie’s excited state, Patricia’s liking toward this man waspletely gone after she knew
Adeline was going to marry him.
At once, she grabbed her daughter. “Sylvie Aniston, have you had enough? Shut your little mouth.”
With one hand, Patricia held her daughter. Before she turned around and left, she said coldly, “Mr.
Arnold, thank you for lending me your clothes.” Although she was expressing her gratitude, she
didn’t sound like she was thanking him at all. Instead, it seemed like she was disrespecting him.
“Honestly, Miss Aniston, you don’t have to give me back. I don’t wear clothes worn by other
people.”
Isaac had a half smile when he was saying those words. He kept looking at her, but in the end, he
couldn’t remember where he saw her.
However, Patricia misunderstood him and felt that he despised her. At once, her facial expression
darkened slightly. Then, she took her daughter with her and strode away.
As she marched angrily, she couldn’t help but reprimand him in her heart, Who does he think he is
to be so arrogant?! He’s just a big stud with no taste!
Meanwhile, Sylvie sensed that Patricia was angry, and she giggled.
“Tricia, don’t you think Mr. Handsome has a cool personality? He’s so handsome!”
Sylvie went into a state of anthomaniac when she thought about Isaac’s handsome look. Patricia
knew that her daughter wouldn’t budge whenever she saw a handsome guy, and she had a bit of a
headache. Considering that it wasn’t in her nature to act like that, she couldn’t help but wonder, I’m
curious as to whose gene this girl inherited.
Later, the two returned home. Once they entered the house, Scott and Sten came and greeted
them.
One brought slippers for Sylvie, while the other brought slippers for Patricia.
As Scott looked at Patricia, changing her shoes, there were traces of maturity on his handsome
little face that his peers didn’t have.
“Mommy, thendlord just came and demanded that we pay the rent before next Monday.
Otherwise, he will rent the ce to someone else. Oh, and the rent has increased by 500 bucks.”
When Patricia heard that, she was stunned for a moment. Shortly after, she said, “I got it. Go and
y with your younger siblings.”
In her heart, she counted the fees she needed to pay. But, as she counted, her facial expression
gradually turned awful.
The rent is 2,000 a month. So that will be 12,000 in half a year.
The training ss for Scott and Sten is 20,000 each, and Sylvie’s piano ss is 20,000. So it’s a
total of 60,000.
At this rate, it’s impossible for me to rely on my current part-time job to support such a significant
expenditure.
Therefore, Patricia felt that she could only return to her old profession—dancing in Everbright.
I was the dancing queen there and earned a lot of money. Also, I could raise three of my children
thanks to this ie.
Initially, I thought I could finally leave that ce.
But, it seems like I can only continue in this profession until I can find a high-paying job.
Meanwhile, Scott stood there and looked at her with a frown. “Mommy, do we still have money at
home?”
He was trying to see if she had seen the money they had transferred to her bank ount.
Patricia caressed his handsome face upon hearing his worries. “Don’t worry about it. I’ll pay the
rent tomorrow. So, we won’t be kicked out.”
Scott had long been used to being kicked out by rudendlords. There was even a time when the
when he was very young.
Never once did Scott forget about that feeling. Hence, both Sten and he wished they could grow
up fast so that they could share Patricia’s burden.
At the same time, Sylvie was with Sten on the other side of the house. Secretly taking Sten
into the room, she closed the door and mysteriously took out a business card.
“Sten, look! Today, I met a handsome man who resembles you and Scott. Could he possibly be
our daddy? I really want him to be my daddy!”
As for Sten, he had long used to the fact that Sylvie would think every single person she met
resembled them once she thought of Daddy. Thus, he reached out his hand, fondly caressed her
head, and arched his eyebrows.
“Let me have a look.”
He took the business card and shook his head when he saw that the person was the president of
Arnolds Corporation.
“He’s too smart. Tricia won’t be able to handle a guy like him.”
After all, Mommy isn’t very smart, and she’s too kind. I’m afraid she’ll be bullied if her partner’s a
man who is too powerful.
Sylvie pouted and whined when she heard Sten’sment, “But I want him to be our daddy.
You and Scott are brilliant. So, I’m sure we won’t have to be afraid that he’s too smart with you two
around, right? And what if he really is our daddy?”
She said all that while tugging and shaking Sten’s sleeve with an expectant gaze in her bright
eyes.
Since Sylvie was their only female sibling, Scott and Sten usually doted on her and pampered
her. Therefore, Sten merely nodded lightly after he saw she liked the idea of Isaac being their
father so much.
