Mavis?
She was already cremated and buried in the Nicholls family cemetery as an urn full of ashes!
Why was she standing right before him?
Tommy was in a state of panic, convinced he must be seeing things.
Mavis was equally flustered.
The misty mountain forest seemed particularly gloomy with its lack of sunlight.
Before Tommy could process what was happening, a blunt object suddenly struck him hard on the back of the head.
Just as he felt the sudden sharp pain, his vision darkened, and he collapsed to the ground.
Sheena stood behind him, holding a stick she had picked up from the ground.
She had knocked Tommy unconscious.
When Mavis saw Sheena, she rushed over as if she had seen her savior.
"Sheena, what are we going to do? Now that Tommy has seen me, Nathaniel will find out soon enough."
Knowing Nathaniel, he would probably be furious when he learned that the supposed incident on the stormy night was all a lie.
It would make her life a living hell!
Sheena patted Mavis's hand reassuringly. "Don't panic. We need to prepare for both scenarios."
Mavis nodded and said earnestly, "Thank you, Sheena. You're the only person I trust completely."
It was an honor for Sheena to be the person Mavis trusted the most.
Nonetheless, there were still things she needed to clarify.
"Mae, if Nathaniel finds out you're still alive, have you considered what you'll do?"
Mavis hesitated, not saying a word.
Sheena continued, "You've been missing Callum so much. Don't you want to fight for his custody?"
Mavis remained silent.
Of course she wanted to.
However, Callum was still very young, and she was no match for the Nicholls family's influence.
If she were to divorce and fight for custody, she likely would not win the battle.

The novel is too abusive it spoils the joy of reading it. I hate the punishment part between sheena and Eliot....
