Chapter 1500 - Handling Mrs. Martin (aka Sylvie) And Mrs. Heine

~ Los Angeles, the Cliffside Villa ~

Sarah returned home in a good mood.

She was upset that Sophia allowed Sylvie to come into her house, but the overall outcome was positive. At least Sophia will not try to get close to Sylvie again. Hopefully.

Levi and Ryan pulled Sylvie who is unconscious. They were holding her by her arms and her feet were dragging on the ground.

Sarah knocked her out with anesthetic before they left the Tuscan Villa. She does not want to risk that crazy woman knows where she is. It will spoil the dungeon effect.

"Where should we keep her?", Levi asked when they entered the main house.

Sarah pointed at the floor. "There is fine. We will take it from here. Thanks."

Levi and Ryan dropped Sylvie on the marble floor, wished Sarah a pleasant rest of the day, and went to return to their post at the Tuscan Villa. They are happy that Sylvie is out of the picture and that they don't need to watch over her.

"Why is this woman here?", Aiden asked when he came to the hallway. Eve told him that Ryan and Levi dragged in unconscious Sylvie, but that does not explain the reason behind it.

Sarah snickered. "Hehehe… She will get to try out my latest version of the dungeon."

Aiden shook his head and smiled. Well, Sarah is happy. "I will get Haru and Ron to drag her to the VR room and we can chain her there and make sure software is ready."

Aiden was about to reach for his ear stud, when Sarah held his hand, preventing him to do so.

"No need to rush. She will be unconscious for at least three more hours. I will tell you the details over lunch and we can take care of her later."

Sarah hugged Aiden's arm and wanted to head to the dining room. Aiden didn't budge. He frowned at the sight of Sylvie sprawled in the middle of their entry hallway.

"We can't leave her here."

"Are we having guests?", Sarah guessed.

Aiden confirmed. "Ellie and Jasper are coming."

Sarah sighed. "Fine. Tell Ron and Haru to take care of her and we will do tweaks on the software and then I can tell you how awesome Aunt I am…"

…

Over lunch, Sarah told Aiden about the interaction between her and Sylvie. And how Sylvie ended up unconscious in their entry hallway.

Aiden approved but he had a question: "Was there a need to chat her up so much? It would be simpler just to knock her out."

Sarah agreed. "I know. But then Sophia would always wonder if I was too harsh and after some time she would again try to get close to Sylvie. Like this, she heard from Sylvie all the craziness and if I find out that Sophia's will to keep Sylvie locked up is wavering, I will make her watch the video from this morning."

Aiden laughed. "Good plan."

Sarah ended giving her updates to Aiden and wanted to know how things went on his end. "How was your talk with Ron?"

"Ron and Zula did thorough research and found three more boys. However, there is no direct evidence at this point. You can see them enter a room, but not what is happening inside."

"I assume you found a solution." Sarah knows that Aiden would not end his chat with Ron and Zula without a plan.

Aiden confirmed. "I will hire someone who looks underage and secure photos of her with him in a compromising situation."

Sarah remembered that Aiden wanted Ron to be the one who will tell the world what his stepmother did to him. They considered getting Ron and her by themselves so that they can record them. And now Aiden said that he will hire someone. "You don't want Ron to expose what she did to him?"

Aiden shook his head. "At first, I thought it's a good idea, but now I realize that it does not matter if it's him or anyone else. He is already in hell, I don't want to make it worse."

Sarah agreed.

Aiden explained further steps of the plan: "I gave them a task to come up with a strategy and several articles which will expose his stepmother. We should be done with this in about one week, and then we can target his father's business."

"Before going after Ron's father's business, you should talk to Jeff. Mr. Heine was at Jeff's inauguration and maybe he wants to take care of this one.", Sarah suggested.

Aiden said that he will talk to Jeff and then they moved onto the topic of bringing the girls from the Beach house. Their rooms are ready, and everyone is excited about the upcoming mini-vacation at the Whiterock lake.

…

Early that afternoon, Ellie and Jasper arrived. They found Sarah and Aiden in the garden.

Sarah was resting in a lounging chair with Kitty by her side who enjoyed head scratches, and Aiden was playing with the pups nearby.

A number of kids are also in the garden sitting, chatting, or playing some games while enjoying a pleasant afternoon.

It was a peaceful scene full of soothing energy.

"Your family is growing.", Ellie said while eyeing the pups.

Sarah smiled. "Meet Bella, Luna, and Rex. And just so you know, they like their daddy more than mommy."

Ellie laughed. "I heard that babies change from mommy to daddy often. Now they are with Aiden, and tomorrow they might ignore him and go to you."

Aiden paused and looked at Sarah. "Rex? I thought the boy is Lucky."

Sarah shook her head. "I told you that I'm not sure about Lucky. The boy will be Rex until I find the right name."

"I will just call him 'boy' until you make up your mind.", Aiden grumbled.

Sarah heard him. "If you don't like it, you pick the name."

Aiden exhaled. "I can pick, and then you will change it. It's better that I let you handle it and save my energy."

Ellie and Jasper laughed at the sight of Sarah and Aiden bickering over a name for the pup.

Sarah noticed that Ellie and Jasper are standing.

"Why don't you sit?", Sarah gestured to the nearby chairs and the bench. Indicating that they can sit anywhere.

Ellie pressed her lips into a line. "Can we talk inside?"

"You don't want someone to overhear?", Sarah guessed.

Ellie confirmed.

"Kitty, baby… mommy needs to go inside.", Sarah spoke to Kitty who stood up and gave a dissatisfied look to Ellie and Jasper. Two seconds later, Kitty climbed her favorite tree to continue relaxing there.

Jasper was surprised. "She understands?"

Sarah grinned. "My Kitty is the smartest one."

Aiden knows that they should go inside, but he was not willing to part with the pups. But he can't take them inside. They already scratched the sofa in the living room and chewed on the cables in the study, and Sarah said that they are going to stay out or in their room and nowhere else until they are trained.

Aiden glanced to the side and saw Allen and Julius who were sitting further away and chatting. He called them to come and play with the pups. At least now he knows that someone will watch over pups and he will feel less guilty for abandoning them.
