novelxo Chapter 1243
With the help from Mia's obvious reminder, Silvia finally remembered it. "Oh... You are the human trafficker!"
"Human trafficker?!" Mia's enthusiasm was instantly extinguished by Silvia's remark. "I only just mistook you for someone else."
Silvia eyed Mia from head to toe. "Are you from Chatterton Town?"
"Hey! I'm your husband's youngest aunt. I'm your elder, so you should be more polite to me. Don't look at me with such a suspicious gaze! I feel hurt, alright?" Mia really wanted to shout this at Silvia, but it was not yet time to reveal her identity. "Yeah, I'm from Chatterton Town," Mia replied simply.
"Chatterton Town?" Silvia knew that Jayden's hometown was Chatterton Town too. The two young boys, Levi, and Julien, also came from there. Now that someone from Chatterton Town showed up in Madison City, could this woman also be from the Kyle family? "What's your name?" Silvia demanded.
"Young lady, I'm your..." Forget it. Mia swallowed back her words. Silvia didn't know who Mia was, so why should Mia mind Silvia? Mia knew she had to continue testing Silvia. "Why should I tell you my name?" Silvia retorted, "Fine then. I don't want to know anyway."
Mia was indignant. "Hey, why are you so rude?"
"What do you mean?!"
"You should be more courteous if you want to know my name. I would have told you if you didn't give up so quickly!"
Silvia was flabbergasted. "Whatever, I'm not interested anymore."
Mia grumbled, "Young lady, I would have smacked you if you were someone else."
"Do you mean that I should thank you for showing mercy to me?"
"You sure have a sharp tongue, young lady!"
"It's pretty good. I won the first prize in our school's quarreling competition last year."
Mia was dumfounded at Silvia's remark.
Wasn't quarreling Mia's strong point? When had she ever lost? But now, it seemed that she was at a disadvantage.
As Silvia looked at Mia, she felt that Mia looked like someone she knew, but she couldn't recall. "Hey, if you're from Chatterton Town... Why did you come here?"
"Why should I tell you?" Of course, Mia couldn't tell Silvia that she came here to meet her. If Mia said so, Silvia would probably think of her as a human trafficker again! "Oh, I'm just asking, it's not that I want to know anything. I won't disturb you anymore." Silvia didn't have much interest in Mia and was about to leave. Seeing that Silvia was about to leave, Mia grabbed Silvia and said, "You know, I'm not familiar with this place. Are you planning to leave without helping me?"
"My apologies!" Silvia avoided Mia's outstretched hand and said with a sense of apology yet aloofness, "I still have another class to attend. I don't have any time to spare."
"Young lady, don't you feel any sympathy?" Seeing that she was on the verge of losing Silvia, Mia executed her ultimate move by putting on a show of bitterness. "I traveled a long way here to look for someone. I failed to find the person, and I even spent all of my money. I might have to roam the streets tonight. Can't you help me?"
"Sympathy? That's for those who are really in need of help. I don't think you need it." Silvia smiled. "Please hide your large designer bag the next time you're lying. If I believed in you, wouldn't I be an idiot? Besides, everyone has a mobile phone nowadays. You can just call the person you're looking for."
Mia was rendered speechless.
In her entire life, she was the one who ridiculed other people. No one could make her fall silent. Silvia, this sharp- tongued young lady, was the first to break the record.
Levi had been praising Silvia unendingly. He said that she was a kind soul who was also blessed with good looks, like an angel sent from heaven.
Mia admitted that Silvia had an endearing face. However, Silvia's sharp character did not match Levi's angelic description!
It seemed that Levi was still easily smitten whenever he saw a beautiful woman. In his mind, as long as the girl was good-looking, he would praise her even if she had a poor character!
However, Mia didn't have the final say on whether Silvia was a good person. The most important thing was that Jayden liked her. As his aunt, all Mia could do was observe Silvia. She could not control Jayden's thoughts.
But then... Mia felt like she was looking at Karen Joy when she looked at Silvia's retreating figure. Why did Jayden court a girl who resembled Karen Joy so much?
Mia didn't dare to think negatively. She didn't chase after Silvia but chose to contact Levi instead. She decided to go to Jayden's residence first. Everything would have to wait until they came home. Silvia would never expect that the human trafficker she met at her campus would appear at her home and even usurped her territory.
The 'human trafficker' was seen sitting on the sofa in the living room. The boys were standing behind the woman, massaging her back. Silvia noticed them the moment she stepped into the house. "Sister Silvia, you're back!" Levi saw Silvia and wanted to run over to welcome her. However, as soon as he took a step, he was pulled back by Mia.
Mia whispered a warning into his ear, "You brat, didn't you remember what I just told you?"
"I forgot." Levi scratched his tiny head with a reluctant expression. "But Mom, Sister Silvia is really nice. I don't want you to bully her."
"Who said I was going to bully her? I was just testing her." Mia twisted Levi's ears. "Stinky brat, don't fail me at such a critical moment. Before Jayden comes back, you two must put on a show with me!"
Levi nodded.
After all, Mia was his mother... An extremely unreasonable mother.
"Levi, who is this?" In fact, there was no need for Levi to answer. Silvia could guess that Mia was Levi's mother just by looking at their faces.
No wonder Silvia felt that Mia looked familiar earlier that morning. It was because Mia looked just like Levi...
Levi stepped forward and gave a serious introduction to Silvia. "Sister Silvia, let me introduce this young and beautiful lady to you... My mother, Mrs. Brown."
"Aunt..." According to seniority, Silvia should address Mia respectfully as an elder. However, Silvia couldn't bring herself to say it.
There were two reasons why Silvia couldn't do it. First, she had a minor conflict with Mia, and they were not on good terms.
The other reason was that Mia looked very young. She looked like she was in her early thirties at most. It was impossible to tell that she had a child who was twelve years old!
