Chapter 392

“Bullshit, when did Tavon and I ever get a divorce?” Ashley bellowed. “He’s still my

husband, Salma. You really have no shame. You tried to lure my husband while our

daughter was in surgery.”

Had it not been for Sandy’s operation, Ashley would have been in Riverdale making a

scene already.

The Ashley of now feared nothing. Her son had donated his marrow to their daughter,

sacrificing his health in the process. Now, it seemed she was about to lose her husband

too. She would not accept this without a fight.

Ashley’s words shook Salma to her core. Tavon had lied to her. The divorce papers were

fake.

“I didn’t seduce your husband,” Salma declared unabashedly. “If you’re so sure, then take

him away from Riverdale. I’d like some peace and quiet. Do you think I care for him? He’s

the one who won’t leave me alone.” Salma had long given up on Tavon.

“You’re talking nonsense, Salma. You’re nothing but a homewrecker…” Ashley’s loud

complaints drew the attention of the entire neighborhood.

Seeing the crowd gathering and the menacing Ashley, Pattie stood in front of Salma in

defense. “Don’t you dare insult my grandma! She’s the best grandma ever.”

“Pattie, go stand aside. Grandma can handle her,” Salma reassured, pulling Pattie away to

avoid any negative influence from Ashley.

As Pattie was moved aside, Salma and Ashley’s argument intensified. Neither was willing

to back down, both adamant in their own stance.

The crowd of onlookers grew, and Pattie was pushed to the outskirts. Pattie watched the

heated argument in the crowd, wishing she could cheer for her grandma. Turning her

head, she spotted Leo in the distance.

Pattie was aware of her brother’s disappearance. Her sister had gone missing, and Mom

was frantic. If her brother was missing, Leo must’ve been worried, too. In Pattie’s mind,

Leo was still family.

Running over to Leo, Pattie called out, “Leo-Daddy.” In the absence of Herman, Pattie

would still instinctively call Leo, Daddy. Only now, she added a prefix.

Leo had returned home to grab some stuff. Hearing Pattie’s voice, hearing that “Leo-

Daddy,” his eyes almost welled up with tears.

Kneeling down to her level, Leo looked at the adorable and sensible Pattie, his heart

softening. “Pattie, yes, your brother will definitely come back. Are you guys moving to a

new house today?”

“Yup, but my sister’s missing, and Mom and Dad are looking for her,” Pattie replied. “Leo-

Daddy, even after we move, I’ll come back to visit you often.”

Every word from Pattie was about Leo, but she didn’t mention Penny at all.

With moist eyes, Leo said, “Good, you must come to visit me, and I’ll take you to KFC.”

“Okay, let’s make a pinky promise,” Pattie offered, sticking out her little finger.

Leo hesitated for a moment, then extended his finger to make the promise.

Looking at the adorable Pattie, Leo could no longer bear the thought of taking her away.

His rough hand and her soft little one locked in a pinky promise, sealing their agreement.

Just then, Penny’s voice rang out, “Leo, why did you rush off? I told you to grab some

things…”

Upon hearing Penny’s voice, Leo couldn’t bring himself to be harsh. He urged Pattie, “Go,

now.”

But it was too late. Penny had walked over and seen Pattie.

Seeing Pattie, Penny’s eyes lit up. In her mind, Pattie represented the hope of finding her

lost son. She had failed to abduct him the night before, but now the little tyke had

presented herself. Wasn’t this an opportunity?

“Pattie, stay right there,” Penny commanded as she briskly walked over.

Penny had bullied Pattie for so long, so she instinctively froze upon hearing her voice.

Pattie watched Penny with fear in her eyes, the lively spirit she had when facing Leo was

gone. All that was left was fear.
