After a while, Sophia received the call from the nanny, and she was shocked.
âWhat did you just say?â she exclaimed.
The nanny slowly churned out the details. âMaâam, when Mr. Levant came and visit the baby, I went out to wash the clothes. Later, when I saw Ms. Tiffany entering the hospital room, I intentionally gave them an opportunity to have a conversation. I was thinking that maybe they would reconcile for the sake of the baby. However, things turned sour, and they got into a huge fight. After that, Mr. Levant left angrily, whereas Ms. Tiffany was boiling with rage. She even said that the baby is her child and disallowed Mr. Levant to visit the baby. Also, I was prohibited from mentioning Mr. Levant! Maâam, do you want to try to persuade her?â
On the other end of the phone, Sophia was taken aback. At that moment, she was still at Imperial Garden. Maya, Sheila, Nicole, and herself were discussing the possibilities of Tiffany and Levant reconciling because of the baby. Besides, their relationship with one another might even improve. However, things did not pan out as expected.
âDid Tiffany mention why?â Sophia continued the interrogation.
The nanny shook her head. âNothing. She didnât mention why. The only thing I gathered from the conversation with her was how furious she was at Mr. Levant.â
âAlright then. Please take good care of them.â Sophia put down the phone and sighed in frustration.
After that, Sophia announced, âWhatâs wrong with Tiffany and Levant. How can visiting the baby result in an argument? Thatâs absurd!â
âI think that Levant must be the culprit. He must have said something preposterous to trigger Tiffanyâs anger. Otherwise, she would not have quarreled with him.â Sophia was certain with her instinct.
Sophia thought for a while and said, âIâll call Levant to find out.â
âYeah, I think you should too,â Sheila agreed.
When Levant picked up the phone, Sophia euphemistically asked him about the incident.
Levantâs sparks of fiery were reignited into blazing wrath. He told Sophia that Tiffany had failed to properly take care of the baby and also about her domineering attitude. Lastly, Levant furiously denounced, âTiffany is not worthy to be a mother! If she continues to do this, I am determined to take away the custody of the child!â
Sophiaâs phone was in loudspeaker mode. Hence, Sheila and Nicole had heard what he said loud and clear. They were bewildered by his attitude.
Sheila immediately spoke into the phone and reprimanded him, âLevant, how dare you say things like this. Are you not ashamed? You didnât want the baby in the first place. Now, you have the audacity to talk about taking away the custody of the child? Are you hallucinating? Besides that, you criticized Tiffany for failing to take care of the baby. However, you must be appraised that she is a woman who has to work and take care of the baby at the same time. Sheâs doing fine! On the flip side, youâll be terrible at taking care of the baby. So please do everyone a favor and shut up!â
âSheila, this is none of your concern!â Levant refuted.
Sheila continued to chastise him, âI donât want to get involved even if you beg me to. Iâm just speaking on behalf of Tiffany. Youâre not allowed to treat a woman like this! I warn you not to bully Tiffany anymore, or else Iâll make you suffer the consequences!â
âConsequences? What are you thinking about? What can you do? Although the Muir family has some influence in Y City, thatâs nothing to me!â Levant was quick to rebut her after receiving those scornful comments about him.
Sheila wasnât a pushover as well. âIs that so? What about the Seet family? Iâm registering my marriage with Davin very soon. From there on, Iâll be staying at the Imperial Garden and will be part of the Seet family. If I see you picking on Tiffany, youâll be an enemy of mine. This means that you will be making an enemy of the Seet family and Sophia, your own aunt! Following that, youâll be blacklisted by the Seet family, and you are not welcomed in the Imperial Garden or the Seet residence ever again!â
Levant was revolted by Sheilaâs statement. This woman is being unreasonable! Iâve never seen anyone like her.
