MASTER ODELL’S SECRET EX-WIFE - Season 9 Episode 43

Sebastian was appalled by this and managed to step in just in time to hold Ramona steady. Sylvia was just as horrified.

Fortunately, Ramona regained her balance in time. She beat her chest with her hand several times and seemed to regain her composure after that.

Her complexion still seemed rather pale.

“| just wanted to see the children. | have no other intentions. How could all of you gang up on a frail old lady like me?” She wiped her eyes with her hands and seemed like she was going to cry.

Aunt Tonya frowned upon earring this.

Isabel pursed her lips indifferently.

Sylvia became more hospitable after this as she offered kindly.“ Come up if you really want to see the boy.”

Although she was not very fond of Ramona, she was still Grandma’s sister at the end of the day. The least she could do was to extend a bit of hospitality.

Ramona seemed appeased by this, evident by the sudden transformation of her expression. Then, she promptly strutted up the stairs.

Sylvia made a look at Aunt Tonya, implying that there was nothing to worry about. She gently patted the heads of Isabel and Liam before she led Ramona to the bedroom. Flint was sleeping soundly on the large, cushy bed.

Ramona bolted toward the bed as soon as she entered. She seemed very fond of the boy. Sylvia frowned as she sensed something off about the old lady.

Aunt Tonya quickened her pace and stopped next to the bed where she watched over Ramona warily. Ramona expressed with a shine in her eyes, “The boy is beautiful.”

Aunt Tonya snorted at this comment. “Of course.”

Ramona suddenly bent over and reached for Flint.

Aunt Tonya immediately grabbed her hand. “What are you doing?”

“Can’t | just hug my sister’s great-grandson ?” Ramona asked sullenly Aunt Tonya looked at Sylvia. Sylvia only smiled, indicating that it was fine.

No matter how much Ramona hated her, surely she would not hurt a harmless child.

Aunt Tonya released Ramona’s hand but still made a point of keeping an eye on her.

Ramona took the sleeping Flint into her arms.

She quietly gazed at Flint’s adorable and tiny head as she gently caressed him with her fingers. After a while, she put Flint back on the bed.

She looked around the bedroom and asked, “Where’s the bathroom? I’d like to wash my hands.” Why would she need to wash her hand immediately after holding the baby?

Aunt Tonya seemed less than impressed by this and expressed grumpily,””What do you mean by you need to wash your hand? You should be glad that Flint isn’t protesting getting held by someone as filthy as you. Do you think Flint got grime on your hands?”

Ramona was infuriated. “Filthy? What did you say?” Sylvia sighed and stated nonchalantly, “Bathroom is that way.”

She gestured toward the bathroom.

Ramona glared at Aunt Tonya, then she quickly walked to the bathroom and closed the door. Aunt Tonya scoffed.

Sylvia approached the bed and smiled. “Aunt Tonya, just be nice to her.”

This seemed to calm Aunt Tonya slightly. “I just can’t stand her attitude toward you.”

Sylvia pursed her lips. “I’ll be fine.”

She was used to it.

Besides, now that she was communicating properly with Odell, all the misunderstandings between them were resolved. All she wanted now was to focus on living a good life with him and the children. The other trite details did not bother her any longer.

After a while, Ramona came out of the bathroom. She arrogantly looked at Sylvia and walked straight out of the room and disappeared as if she had never shown up at all.

Aunt Tonya muttered grumpily, “Look at her! She was acting as if she would die if she didn’t see Flint, and now she’s scurrying away like a thief! What’s her problem?”

Sylvia remained silent.

She had the faint impression that there was something suspicious about Ramona’s behavior as well. Then again, she figured that Ramona probably had enough of her and Aunt Tonya, thus deciding she did not want to overstay her welcome.
