Sheryl had already grabbed the kettle and was about to throw it away. Sylvia raised her feet in pain, and she was led to the side. The kettle in Sheryl’s hand fell.
"Ah, it hurts me so much." Sheryl suddenly screamed in pain and covered her feet with her hands.
Although the pot of water hadn't boiled yet, it was still a little hot, and all of it was poured onto her feet.
"What's wrong?" Arthur was playing with Elaine and Hendrick and didn't notice this side. When he heard the cry and turned around, he saw Sheryl covering her feet with a painful look on her face. He couldn't help but frown.
"Arthur, sister scald me with boiling water." Sheryl looked at him with tears in her eyes and cried out in grievance.
Arthur stood up and looked at Sylvia with a frown.
Sylvia said coldly, "I didn't. She stepped on me with her foot and I just lifted it. She didn't stand firm on her own. It's none of my business."
"Nonsense, I was about to boil water for my son to drink, and you pushed me with your foot. Ouch, it hurts." She screamed in pain, shed tears, and said aggrievedly to Sylvia,
"Sister, I know you don't like me. I was a little strict with you a while ago, but I didn't mean to embarrass you. After all, Hendrick is my only son. I know him. He has had bad gastrointestinal problems since he was a child and has never been easygoing. When he eats, he was usually accompanied by me or a high-end nanny. Everything he ate had to be approved by me. I think you don’t understand anything. I was just anxious because I am afraid that my son will suffer from diarrhea after eating what you gave him. I spoke a little faster, but I absolutely mean well, not against you. "
After speaking, she looked at Arthur and shed tears, "Arthur, I am Hendrick's mother, and I have the right to care about my son. I don't object to you hiring a psychological teacher for him, but I also have the responsibility to provide guidance, right?"
Speaking of this, she started to cry even more aggrievedly.
Arthur frowned, put down Elaine, walked to Sheryl, bent down and picked her up. She put her on the bed. Looking at her feet, they were white and tender, and they were indeed very red.
He immediately called the doctor over and gave her some medicine for the burn and treated it.
After a while, Arthur asked Sheryl to take Elaine home.
The smile on Sheryl's face disappeared instantly. She stood there awkwardly.
Sylvia was frightened, hesitant and did not go through.
Hendrick's behavior was a bit obvious. She was worried that Sheryl would become angry because of this and would hold a grudge against her son.
After all, Hendrick will still have to live with Sherly and Arthur in the future.
She suppressed the pain in her heart and smiled at her son, "Hendrick, your mommy is here. Stay with her."
"No, I don't want her, I just want you." Hendrick objected without any scruples. He sat up and stretched out his hands towards her, looking at her pitifully.
Sylvia's heart was as sharp as a knife.
