With Mrs. Thompson's attitude, it wouldn't just be difficult for Sylvia - even she couldn't bear it.
Fortunately, Sylvia had a good temper.
"I've talked to her about it, but you know how my mom is. Once she's made up her mind, who can change it?" Sawyer asked rhetorically.
Mary sighed.
After all, Sylvia was her biological daughter, and seeing her being treated unfairly made Mary's heart ache.
"There's one more thing I haven't told you yet." Sawyer seemed to remember suddenly.
"What is it?" Mary asked.
Sawyer continued, "Mom plans to live with us long-term."
Mary was extremely surprised, "Long-term?"
"Yes." Sawyer nodded.
"Why?" Mary asked.
For the past few years, Mrs. Thompson had been living in the southern coastal cities where the climate was pleasant all year round. She was no longer used to Capital City's climate, so she hadn't stayed there long-term for many years.
