True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 2135

"Don't go." Sylvia grabbed her hand and said seriously, "This is between Mr. Trevino and I. Please don't get involved, okay? I beg you."

Claudia was stunned, she did not expect Sylvia to actually beg her.

She used to be the pampered little girl from the Jones family, but she was actually begging her so humbly then.

Her heart ached, and she nodded.

"Then, is there anything I can help you with?"

"You don't have to ask about anything, and you don't have to say anything. That already is the biggest help to me." Sylvia's tone was very calm. Even though she was sad, but the sadder she was, the calmer she was. "There are some things which I have to do myself."

"Can you really do it yourself?" Claudia was greatly worried.

Besides, things were shaping up for her earlier that day. How could the situation have changed so suddenly?

She really did not understand what was going on

with her cousin.

Sylvia nodded. "I know very well what I can do it, it is just that I should not do it now."

"Not now?" Claudia asked in surprise. "What do you mean by that?"

"At earliest, I will have to wait for two years." Sylvia was determined.

She roughly understood the gist of it then. Basically, Kendrix was conflicted.

He was conflicted because of her age.

She was still an underage girl. It made Kendrix feel too immoral to be with her.

She pondered upon it carefully to think of what went wrong. As she thought about it then, she believed it might be Kendrix who was in a dilemma.

He probably liked her too initially. However, he felt that it was too immoral for him to like her. That, coupled by the fact that the observation Lowell made and the harsh words from Sebastian, must've made him suddenly feel agitated.

Moreover, when she and Claudia went upstairs to apply the ointment, she did not know what Lowell talked to Kendrix about downstairs.

Even though they weren't saying anything when they arrived downstairs, the atmosphere was still as cold as ever.

Lowell must have said something to him, otherwise, Kendrix would not have said those things later on.

However, it did not matter anymore.

She understood that she needed to first solve her own problems regarding her studies then.

She needed to wait.

Even if her heart was stirring, she still had to wait.

She could only continue pursuing him after she was over the age of consent. Would his heart change in that one and a half years?

She wasn't sure.

Sylvia smiled bitterly, then she looked at Claudia again. "For real, don't ask Mr. Trevino about it anymore. I am sure that he is under a lot of pressure. I can roughly understand why he is doing this. He wants me to study properly."

"He has already treated you like this, yet you are still defending him. Do you take yourself as a saint?" Claudia taunted her.

"There is no other way. The one who falls in love first is always the one who loses," Sylvia said, "I want to be proud too, but what if I can't?"

"Sylvia." Claudia stretched out her hands and hugged her. "How about this, I will keep an eye on Kendrix for you, and you help me pay close attention to Sebastian too, okay?"

"Okay." Sylvia nodded and hugged her back.

"Then, that will be it." Claudia hugged her. "I should go, you don't have to send me off."

"Okay."

After that, Claudia left rather quickly.

By the time Sylvia got home, she locked herself in her room and started to read. It seemed like the outside world had nothing to do with her.

From that day onwards, Sylvia would settle down completely and study seriously.

She did not like to joke around anymore, and she did not continue with her usual tricks and pranks. She did not even eavesdrop on anyone else anymore, not even thinking about it.

Every time after she finished her meal, she headed back to her room to study.
