Chapter 1339
"She wouldn't dare to!" Jayden said through clenched teeth. At the same time, he grabbed Levi, pressed him on the bed, and slapped his buttocks, "Little brat, how dare you mess with me, huh? Don't think that I'm not going to beat you up."
"Are you serious, Jayden? How could you do this to me?" In the past, Jayden had only threatened to hit him but did not really do it. Therefore, Levi was taken back that Jayden had hit him quite hard this time. He had a feeling that his buttocks were swollen.
"Be honest with me! Now!"
"Boohoo... Why are you so fierce? Fine, fine. I'll tell you!" Levi could only blame himself. Despite fully aware of its danger, he took the risk and went ahead with it. He was just digging his own grave. Finally, Jayden let go of Levi. "Sit down."
Levi immediately sat up straight, his eyes looking straight ahead like an obedient child.
Jayden asked, "Did Silvia mention anything about me?" "Yes." Levi couldn't help looking down upon Jayden. He could not fathom why Jayden was acting in such a cowardly and furtive way toward his own wife.
Jayden was not satisfied with Levi's answer. "Be more specific."
"What do you want me to say?" Levi threw the question back to Jayden.
"How did she think of me?"
"Using her brain I guess?" Levi replied.
Jayden knew that Levi was doing it on purpose but there was nothing he could do about it. "Little brat, I shouldn't have spanked you just now. It's all my fault. I sincerely apologize to you. Please forgive me." Levi said, "I don't feel any pain from your spanking at all."
"Does it still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt at all."
"I'm sorry, Levi."
Levi was finally satisfied after hearing Jayden apologize twice. He smiled and said, "Jayden, let me tell you. Sister Silvia is really worried about you."
"How do you know that she is worried about me?" "I am not stupid. How wouldn't I know that she is worried about you?" Levi gave Jayden a contemptuous look and continued, "All of us know that Sister Silvia doesn't have a high IQ. But Jayden, when did you become that silly?"
"Be serious, little brat." Jayden knocked Levi's head with his book and said, "What I mean is, how did she show that she is worried about me? Did she say it directly?
Levi felt even more frustrated with Jayden. Why couldn't he ask Sister Silvia directly if he was dying to know about it? Levi thought. "If she doesn't care about you, she wouldn't have flown to Chatterton Town as soon as she heard that you were about to die."
"What? I am going to die? Who told her that I am going to die?" Jayden had been wondering why Silvia, who was hot-tempered and stubborn, would fly to Chatterton Town out of the blue. Now he finally knew why. It turned out that she was deceived.
Did Silvia rush to Chatterton Town because she was worried about his well being? Or was she worried that once he died, she would become a widow?
"Who is going to die? What are you talking about, Jayden?" Levi felt annoyed with himself that he had let the cat out of the bag. What if Jayden was offended? Fortunately, he had already prepared for this. "Stop faking it, Levi."
"I'm not."
Jayden threatened, "Do you not have enough spanking?"
"Alright. To be honest, it was my mom who led us to do this." Shifting the responsibility onto Mia was the most appropriate solution as there was only one person in the family who could keep her in check. "Aunt Mia?"
Levi nodded, "She's probably still awake. You can give her a call and ask her."
"Why would she do this?" Jayden asked curiously.
"The doctor said that the reason you refused treatment was probably because of Sister Silvia. My mother was worried about you. So she lured Sister Silvia here." When speaking of this, Levi did not forget to add fuel to the fire, "Jayden, did you know that Sister Silvia even cried just now? Her eyes were swollen from crying as she didn't get to see you."
"Did she cry?" Jayden lifted his blanket immediately and prepared to get down from the bed. "Little brat, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Because you didn't ask!" Levi was feeling proud of himself that he had gotten back at Jayden. Just by changing a few lines, he had made Jayden behave like a cat on hot bricks.
Jayden rolled over and got out of bed. "Which guest room is she staying in?"
"Because you didn't want to see her, Aunt Karen arranged a room furthest from yours for her." Levi said while pointing to the window, "Sister Silvia is staying in the small building over there in the garden." Jayden had already put on his coat. "It's getting late. Go to sleep."
"Do you need me to go with you to see Sister Silvia?"
Jayden glared at him and said, "Did I say that I'm going to see her?"
Levi remained silent.
He was dumbfounded that Jayden still refused to admit that he was going to see Silvia. Levi was at a loss for words.
However...
Levi put his hand in his pocket discreetly and touched his mobile phone. It felt a little hot. It seemed that the recording went well. He had successfully obtained the firsthand information that Silvia wanted. By having this recording, Jayden could not deny it anymore.
When Jayden was done, he patted Levi and asked, "Little brat, what are you smiling at?" "It's late. I'm going to bed now. You should also hurry up and visit Sister Silvia. Oh! Remember to put on more clothes. Sister Silvia will be sad if you catch a cold." After saying that, Levi turned around and ran out of the room. He figured it was better to retreat as soon as possible in case Jayden discovered his recording. "You little brat..." Nevertheless, Jayden heeded Levi's advice and put on another coat to prevent himself from catching a cold.
At this time of the year, the weather in Chatterton Town was much warmer compared to Madison City. The average temperature was around twenty degrees Celsius. During the day when the sun shone brightly, wearing a single layer was enough to keep warm. However, it would be slightly cold at night when there was strong wind.
The old illness caused by Jayden's gunshot wound would flare up due to the change in weather. The feeling of not being able to control his own body was especially terrible for Jayden. Hence, he had always been extra cautious to prevent himself from catching a cold.
There were four three-story buildings in Secret Garden with different styles, functions, and characteristics to each one of them respectively. The main building was where Kevin and Karen resided, while the other family members could choose whichever building to stay in as they preferred.
Whenever there were guests visiting, Karen would arrange their rooms thoughtfully. She wanted to make sure that all relatives and friends who visited Secret Garden would feel at home.
