Cormac looked at her, “It is not that I’m walking without any sound. You’re just too engrossed. Who sent you the message?”
Good morning?
Who?
Charles White?
Still not giving up on Loredana by now?
Loredana sat on the bed and raised her head while looking at him.
Cormac looked at her, “Why don’t you say anything?”
Loredana scrolled to the last message and pursed her lips, “It is strange. There have been unknown messages since last night. What does this person mean and what does he intend to do?” Cormac took her phone over and scrolled through the messages. Then, he frowned as he seemed to be surprised as well.
“Have you been fooling around with girls outside?” Loredana frowned as she did not suspect him purposely. However, she just could not figure out who would do that with an appropriate reason. Cormac took a glance at her and did not say anything. He forwarded the contact number on her phone to his own phone, “I will find it out. Don’t think too much about it.”
Loredana lowered her eyes, “I’m not thinking too much. I just feel a bit uneasy. Who will do that?”
“I will find it out.” Cormac’s tone was serious with imperceptible anger.
She had been in a good mood this morning. However, she could not calm down after encountering such a situation.
She was really afraid that if anything would happen again. Fortunately, Boyce’s issue was resolved without any trouble this time, but what about next time?
“How is Declan now?” Loredana asked.
It was him since the last time.
“He has been sentenced to prison.” Declan had completely ruined himself. He originally had the opportunity to go abroad and avoid imprisonment. Now, he was like seeking his own death and nobody could save him anymore.
Loredana lowered her eyes, “It won’t be him then.”
Cormac told her not to think about it anymore, “I will find it out. Your daughter is hungry. Let’s go downstairs to eat.”
Loredana nodded and reached out to caress her daughter’s face, “Bring Andrew back today. He can play with her too. It is so lonely with nobody at home all of the sudden.”
Previously, Theresa, Jayden and Kevin were at home. But now, they were all gone and the villa became so quiet all of the sudden.
At first, Cormac wanted to bring Amanda to the company as it might be good for her recovery by getting along with more people. However, he gave up the idea of bringing his daughter to the company after receiving these unknown messages.
The main focus now was to find out who had sent those weird messages to Loredana’s phone.
“I will fetch him after the meal,” Cormac said.
Loredana nodded her head.
The house had been cleaned by Coral, but there was still a faint smell of alcohol. So, Cormac asked Coral to open the windows for ventilation.
Coral said, “The windows are open. It may take some time to get rid of the smell.”
“If you can’t get used to the smell, just stay upstairs.” Cormac lifted his eyes and looked at Loredana.
She did not have much appetite as she chewed the food in her mouth bit by bit.
Perhaps, she was thinking about something and did not pay attention to Cormac’s words.
So, she did not respond either.
Cormac looked at her.
He knew that even she had promised not to think about it anymore, but she must be thinking about it over and over again in her mind.
He sighed, “Why can’t you just listen to me?”
“Huh?”
Loredana regained her sense and did not hear what he had said clearly.
Cormac also lost his appetite and waited until Loredana had finished her meal. Then, he let Loredana take care of Amanda.
He left the villa to fetch Andrew.
He also brought Jayden and Kevin back to the villa with him by the way. So, there was somebody at home who could help Loredana to look after Amanda. Since Amanda did not even stick with Coral, only Loredana could look after her alone when he was away. It was inconvenient for Loredana to take care of Amanda with her big belly.
At nine o’clock, Cormac fetched them back home.
“Mummy.” Andrew ran over and lay on her lap while looking at his sister, “Still not well?”
Loredana reached out and caressed his forehead, “Yes, so I have called you back to play with your sister.”
Andrew had always been sensible and obedient. He nodded vigorously and then kept talking to his sister, “Amanda, I have something for you. Do you want to see it?”
Amanda blinked her eyes at him and did not say anything.
Andrew was not discouraged and continued to prompt her to speak, “Don’t you really want to see it? Then I will give it to somebody else?”
Amanda remained silent.
It seemed that the toys could not tempt her. Amanda went to bring over the full set of toys for the playing house.
In fact, they were planning to come back even if Cormac did not fetch them from the mansion today. They had bought all these toys for her yesterday.
Amanda had always wanted to play house, but Andrew had always felt childish and was unwilling to play.
His sister was frightened till mental illness this time, so he gave in as long as he could make his sister recover quickly. He was willing to do anything for her.
Jayden came over, “Amanda, come and hug grandpa.”
Amanda burrowed into Loredana’s arms. She showed her reluctance with her action.
“Grandpa, let’s play house together.” Andrew pulled Jayden to sit down on the carpet while Kevin joined in with Cotton.
Amanda blinked her eyes at them. Andrew set up those toys properly, especially the kitchen toys which included all kinds of ingredients, pots and pans to slice and stir fry. She had always wanted to play house with a princess living inside.
After a while, she took the initiative to get out of Loredana’s hug and join them.
Loredana heaved a sigh of relief.
It was good to see that she had finally changed slightly. Although she still did not talk, she was willing to play with the others.
