True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 2112

Meanwhile, at the Jones family home.

After Sylvia and Claudia arrived, the both of them retired to Sylvia's room to wash up and change.

Claudia asked, "Would your parents be mad if I stay over with you?"

"Are you really afraid of what others say?" Sylvia asked cheekily.

She was ecstatic, and her previous sadness was gone. She was her energetic and lively self again.

Claudia shrugged her shoulders and burst out laughing when she saw the quick-witted Sylvia tilting her head and looking at her.

"No way. I was merely asking." Claudia's eyes lit up with a sly glint. "Let's talk for a bit before we go to bed. Seeing how excited you are, I don't think you're sleepy at all. Hence, I shall make the huge sacrifice of forgoing my sleep to talk."

"Am I excited, or are you?" Sylvia asked.

"You, of course. Look at how red your face is. What did you do to Kendrix just now?" Claudia sensed that Sylvia was a lot more excited than normal, and she seemed surrounded by an aura of

love.

Something must have happened.

Especially since she was so shy when Claudia asked her to speak to Kendrix.

"Nothing," Sylvia replied, shaking her head immediately. "What could I possibly do to him at school? Furthermore, he's a teacher and a cop. You know what he's capable of. Plus, I don't think I can ever get close to him."

"But from what I see, I feel like you've done something." Claudia looked at Sylvia up and down. "Don't hide it from me. I'm literally your fairy godmother."

"Nothing!" Sylvia repeated, shaking her head again. "I didn't do anything except tell him that he couldn't be with any other woman for five years. That's the condition he set if I got first place, and I just claimed my prize."

Claudia leaned back, spreading her arms out. "I'm sure he's very happy and impressed that you got first place in such a short time."

Sylvia shook her head. "I don't think so."

"Not everyone can get first place," Claudia pointed out. "Well, at least I didn't get first place when I was in school."

"I haven't ever gotten it before. It's always been my brother who got first place. He must have let me win this time. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to beat him."

Claudia leaped out of bed as soon as she heard that, her eyes full of intrigue. "Your brother is a genius?"

"Don't tell me that you want to gossip about Sebastian," Sylvia said warily. She could not help thinking that Claudia seemed like a hungry animal while Sebastian was her prey.

"Well, let's do that then!"

Claudia felt no shame about her intentions.

"I've already made it so obvious, so tell me everything about your brother," Claudia said.

Sylvia was floored by Claudia's response.

She used to be the little devil at home, spying on her brothers. She had thought that she was shameless enough.

Of course, she never thought of herself as shameless, just cunning.

She never expected Claudia to be even more shameless than she was.

"Sebastian? He has always been a quiet person. Other than being a genius, there's nothing special about him. Honestly, he's kind of boring. Oh yes, he does love to spend time with my mom." "So, he's the gentle and caring type," Claudia

mused.

"Well, he's only ever gentle to my mom. He's extremely fierce toward me," Sylvia said.

"I don't think so!" Claudia disagreed right away, and she proceeded to break it down for Sylvia. "Sebastian went to see Kendrix over what happened with you, you know? Honestly, I envy you. All of them care about you so much, and they're willing to come to blows over you."

"Did they have a fight?" Sylvia was stunned.

"Didn't you see any scars on Kendrix's face?" Claudia asked, puzzled.

Sylvia's mind went blank. She did not remember seeing any injuries on Kendrix's face.

She shook her head uncertainly. "I don't really recall seeing any."

Although she had looked at Kendrix up close, her eyes did not wander from his eyes. As she thought about it now, she did not seem to recall seeing any wounds on Kendrix's face.

"My brother is injured, but not Mr. Trevino." Sylvia confirmed.

"Oh, then that means that Kendrix had the upper hand. Well, your brother could have hit Kendrix somewhere else and not his face," Claudia said.

"Oh."

Sylvia was filled with worry once Claudia said that.

"He must be injured elsewhere. Ah, I've been too careless. I didn't ask Mr. Trevino about his injuries even after seeing Gary's injuries."

Sylvia felt guilty.

Did Sylvia even deserve to be in the police force? Sylvia wondered.

At the time, she only cared about making her claim and not about whether Kendrix was all right.

Sylvia was disappointed with herself.

As her frustration grew, Sylvia looked even more regretful.

Claudia chuckled. "Wow. Women are truly idiots in love. Your own brother was heavily injured, and yet you're here caring about another man?"

"Well, it's not like you care about Mr. Trevino either. You only have eyes for Sebastian. Doesn't that make you an idiot as well?" Sylvia fired right back.

Claudia laughed. "You're really good at debating, aren't you? Okay, let's not fight anymore. Relax, Kendrix is fine."

"I hope he is." Sylvia prayed that Kendrix would be all right.

Claudia and Sylvia talked about Sebastian all night, but Sylvia had her mind on Kendrix at the same time.

Claudia was probably tired since she fell asleep on the bed after a while.

However, Sylvia could not fall asleep.
