The nce from Odell was obviously telling Sylvia to leave right after she put the kids back to bed.


    Madam Carter was annoyed. She asked Sylvia, “Syl, where have you guys been? What happened to


    your faces?”


    Her question came with a smile with a hint of anticipation. She was hoping for something to happen


    between Odell and Sylvia.


    Sylvia then told Madam Carter what happened–from Odell taking the kids away from Starz Club in the


    morning to bringing them and her to Astrnd. Madam Carter looked disappointed.


    “Grandmother, the kids are tired. I’ll tuck them in, and then I’ll leave,” Sylvia said.


    She wanted to carry Isabel back to the room.


    Madam Carter signaled the servant with a nce, and the servant came over to carry Liam to the room


    as well.


    She then went up to Sylvia and said, “Syl, since Odell is noting home tonight, stay for dinner. Isabel


    and Liam should be awake soon. They’ll sulk if they don’t see you when they wake up.”


    A quick thoughtter, Sylvia said, “Sure.”


    At Lake Victoria Vi, when Odell arrived, Tara was sitting on the couch in the living room wearing only a


    thin dress. She called him as soon as he opened the door. “Odell.” She looked pale and weak while her


    eyes were reddish. Odell strode over to her and asked, “I thought your fever got better this morning. How


    did it get worse?”


    Tara sank into his arms and said, “I don’t know. I didn’t go out like you said, but maybe because…”


    She did not finish the sentence.


    “Because of what?”

    “Maybe because I missed you too much.” She looked at him in fascination. Odell tightened his lips and


    hugged her tighter. Tara noticed the paint on his face. She asked, “Odell, what happened to your face? Is


    it Isabel again?”


    Odell hummed a reply. Tara frowned. “Why is that little girl so naughty? She drew a tortoise on your face


    before, and now she’s painting your face?” She felt bad for him.


    Odell furrowed his brows. “Isabel just wanted to y with me. It wasn’t a prank.” The little girl had


    obviously painted on his face because she epted him as someone close. To be honest, he enjoyed


    the little interaction as well.


    Tara noticed the seriousness on his face, and she got a little evasive. She exined, “I’m sorry Odell. I


    thought the little rascal was trying to prank you with her brother again.” “It’s okay. Let’s go back to the


    room and put you to bed.”


    Odell released her from his arms and held her hand instead as they went upstairs.


    Tara also secretly sighed a breath of relief. In the bedroom, Tara obediently tucked herself in and Odell


    sat down beside the bed. A thought came into his mind and he said, “I have to make a call.” Tara simply


    hummed a reply. Odell went to the balcony and called his butler at home. The call got through after a few


    seconds. “Has Sylvia gone back?” The old butler cautiously answered, “Master Odell, Ms. Ross is still


    here. Madam asked her to stay for dinner.”


    “Mm-hmm. What about the kids?” he asked. “Little Isabel and Liam just woke up, and they are beside


    Madam and Ms. Ross.”


    “Okay.”


    Odell hung up the phone with satisfaction on his face. The nce that he had given her before he left


    was actually him asking her to stay to take care of the kids.


    The two little rascals were exhausted after ying for a whole day, and if they woke up with no parents


    around, they would probably be disappointed.
