Chapter 349
All Samuel could say was, “There’s my elder brother and younger sister. I’ll call them over.”
Perhaps it would be easier to communicate with Sadie if Kenny and Maisy were here.
After all, Sadie loved Maisy the most. Maisy was also obedient; she must be more patient than him and Peter.
Hilary knew there were others in their family. However, those two…..
Sadie exclaimed, “Don’t ask them to come! They are just the same as you two! I’ve cared for you all for nothing!
“No matter how naughty you were when you were young. I patiently took care of you until you were all grown up. But you….”
Sadie was thoroughly hurt. If she could relive her life, she would never give birth to so many children.
“Mom, who else do you want to care for you if not us? Dad’s busy at work. It’s good enough for him to
drop by occasionally. You should know our situation now, right?” Samuel was pissed.
Sadie’s face changed. At that moment, she remembered someone. The one who’d patiently looked after her when she’d been sick with the flu.
She hadn’t thought much about it then. But now, she realized she’d taken things for granted.
She instructed, “Get Skylar to come. Find her! You didn’t tell her that I was in an accident and had to undergo amputation, did you? She would’ve come to visit me if you’d told her!
“Try to get her to come. Go to Janine. She will be able to contact Skylar. No, go to Skylar’s workplace and
ask her to come!”
Yes, the one she’d thought of was Skylar.
Samuel answered, “Mom, I didn’t tell you this because I feared you’d be sad. Skylar knows about your accident. She came on the day of your surgery. When she saw that your surgery had ended smoothly, she
left.
“We’ve been trying to contact her for the past few days, but she’s blocked all of us. Maisy asked Janine, but Janie couldn’t be bothered. We called her workplace and found out she’s now on leave. No one knows
where she is.”
Anger filled Samuel when he mentioned Skylar.
She didn’t know any better! How much could she earn from that job? They could pay her a sum equal to her yearly salary every month if she took care of Sadie.
Sadie’s eyes widened. “How… could that be…
Hilary understood their situation. She patiently suggested, “Hire a caretaker, then. If this continues, the hospital will have a hard time explaining things to the other patients and their families.”

Although it was a private hospital, those admitted there were either wealthy or reputable. It wouldn’t be easy to deal with them.
Peter took several deep breaths. Then, he stood up and told her, “Don’t worry, we’ll talk things through
nicely.”
Hilary nodded and headed out.
Just as she left, Peter told Sadie sternly, “Mom, stop making a fuss. Let’s talk nicely. We may be able to get Skylar to look after you forever, but we have to talk.”
Samuel glanced at him. It seemed they had the same thought.
They must use different means when dealing with Skylar. Otherwise, she would think they were helpless against her.
Sadie finally calmed down. “Okay, go ahead.”
When evening came, the rays of the setting sun cascaded over the ocean. It formed a scene so gorgeous that it was captivating.
The boat headed toward the pier. Skylar leaned against Joe as they admired the view in silence. “If I could freeze time, it would be nice to freeze it right here and now,” Skylar said.
