Chapter 45
Westley drove her to an hotel and h**d a room close to hers since she wouldn't let them share a bed.
Sylvie couldn't sleep. Each tshe closed her eyes, images of Paul being killed filled her head. He was brutally
stabbed How could anyone do that to him? Paul was a very kind man, he didn't deserve that.
She was frightened. Something deeper than she had thought was going on in the One Trillion Group.

For three days, Sylvie was at the hotel. She didn't report to work, and Kage didn't mind, considering she needed
enough tto get over the incidence. He was only considerate of the babies. But he was losing his mind over
her not coming back to the house. She wouldn't even let him visit in her lodge, claiming she wanted to be alone.
He understood that someone who wasn't used to seeing much blood could react Thad way, but she could chose
to stay alone at home! The house was big enough, and if she wanted, they wouldn't even see each other for a
whole week On the third day, however, Sylvie was forced to leave the house, Kage's mother had called her over,
claiming she left simportant documents behind and she was going to trash it if Sylvie didn't cto get it
as soon as possible. Sylvie didn't know what documents she was talking about, but she couldn't risk losing it and
had to go. Although, Westley was at work, she texted him her plans and location.
When she reached the house, she found other members of the family present - saunts, uncles. They were at
the dining eating and laughing
Those were the big members of the Hawkins family, and people Sylvie had always held in high esteem.
"Sylvie! What s pleasant surprise to see you," One of the uncles said as she stood in the living room.
She went closer. "Hi... everyone.
They were too many, she didn't know which of them to greet.

"Oh. I I see.
"Why don't you eat with us, dear? There are extra plates."
"She can't. She isn't a member of this family, Damien!" Phoebe protested.
"Phoebe, con. She use to be your daughter in-law. Let her eat with us. Besides I'm sure she's hungry."
Sylvie was indeed hungry. Plus, the various dishes on the table was driving her insane. She'd been salivating
since she walked through the door.
"Thank you," she sailed, taking a seat next to Uncle Damien.
When she was married to Kage, she didn't really have a relationship with them. They hardly ever saw, and the
few times they did, they didn't make Sylvie think they hated her.
The people there were quite influential. Damien and one other uncle at the table - Nate - were senators in the

another was a governor, and then others held high positions in the country. The Hawkins were extremely
influential. Sylvie felt glad sitting in the midst of such important people. It was even better that they liked her,
unlike Kage's mother who had always been a pain in the a** The family had so much fun on the table, with them
bringing up so many conversations and fun jokes. Sylvie laughed at spoint, and from tto time, they said
things that concerned Sylvie and also made her laugh. "So, how has life been with you, Sylvie?" Griffin asked,
dabbing the corners of his mouth with a napkin. "I mean, since you divorced Kage, have you been well?"
"To her honest, | was disappointed when | heard you two split up, Elizabeth - who owned a huge pharmaceutical
company- said. "I know it was contracted and all, but sillyhad been hoping somehow, you two will get pass

"Or course, Sylvie chuckled. "Kage and | got married based on a contract. | wasn't expecting anything else.
"Are you sure? You've never... wished you two could get back together?"
Sylvie was torn between forcing a smile and pulling a frown. She really didn't like the conversation.
"Isn't that the reason you becpregnant for him? Just so you could tie him down with the kid?" Griffin asked.
Sylvie's world cblurring at its axis. What the hell? She looked up at him, confusion glaring at her.
"You figured he'd be interested if you were pregnant for him. You thought it should be enough to ruin his

For a moment, Sylvie thought she was in a movie. Because what in God's nwas going on?
Elizabeth dropped her cutleries, wearing a deceptive smile. 'Oh, darling; you thought we wouldn't know, right?
You thought you are going to get away with ruining our son's life?"
Sylvie looked at Phoebe, and her heart broke apart when she found a smug smile on the woman's face. Was
