Wayne was like a seed, planted in Ivy's heart. Eventually, it would grow into the tree of a child's longing for a father.
"Forget about it," Paige said, snatching the tablet from her hand. "You know Wayne gave Ivy a cell phone, right?"
Rosalynn nodded. "Hilaria took it away."
"It's for the best," Paige sighed. "It's cruel to Ivy, I know, but if she keeps in touch with Wayne and it ends up exposing everything, it'll be even crueler to you."
Rosalynn took a deep breath. "I'll help them pack."
"The servants had already taken care of that. Just relax." Paige said.
But without saying anything, Rosalynn went to the children's room anyway.
Ivy was putting the little bag that Wayne had bought for her into her suitcase. Though she seemed to listless, when she saw Rosalynn, she still greeted her.
"Ivy, Mommy will be done with work soon. I'll come to pick you up then. You like Uncle Jaime, right? What if we live with him?" Rosalynn asked.
Ivy nodded, "Whatever you say."
Rosalynn's heart sank.
"Are you still upset?" she asked softly.
Ivy suddenly hugged her little bag tightly. "Did Ivy say something wrong? You guys decide everything, don't you?"
"Sis, you can't talk to Mommy like that."
Cory came up to them.
Ivy turned her head away and didn't say anything. However, her eyes soon were filled with tears.
Rosalynn felt helpless.
"Cory, please take good care of your sister," she said, patting Cory's head.
Cory nodded, and Rosalynn then left the children's room.
Her art studio's door was ajar, with the lights on.
