As far as she could remember, she had not done anything to make him mad recently.


    “What is this about, Odell?”


    He stared at her and said, “I heard from Isabel and Liam that you are moving?”


    Sylvia was surprised. “How did they find out?”


    She was only going to tell them after she moved.


    Odell scoffed. “You were the one who tell them, didn’t you?”


    Sylvia was confused. “Why would I tell them that I’m moving?”


    They were kids, and moving was supposed to be an adult problem, so why would she tell them?


    Odell squinted. “You really didn’t tell them?” Sylvia stared right back into his eyes and confidently said,


    “Of course not.” He tightened his lips and the expression on his face turned cold. Even the air around


    him fell colder than usual.


    Sylvia had goosebumps from his stare. She then asked, “Odell, can you not look at me like that? What is


    it that you want to talk about?”


    Odell finally moved his thin lips. “After they knew you were moving, they threw a tantrum at me because


    they want you to move in with them.”


    He continued to stare at her.


    Sylvia was first surprised before she frowned. She did not expect the two of them to want her to move in


    with them.


    Maybe Jacob, who helped her tidy up yesterday, told them that she was moving, and the two little rascals


    did not want her to move far away, hence suggesting she move in with them.


    What’s your opinion on this?” Odell asked her.


    What opinion could she possibly have? She said, “It’s inappropriate. We’ve already got a divorce a long


    time ago. No way we’ll live under the same roof again. I’ll talk to them when I see them


    She was calm throughout her exnation. She had no thoughts of moving in with the kids, let alone


    living with him under the same roof.


    Odell wore an even sourer look. “What if they insist? What are you going to do?”


    “T’ll talk to the


    sides, I’ve already moved into a new house, so they will listen to me.”


    The look on his face changed again


    Sylvia was surprised by howst be changed his expressions. She then asked, “Did you get into an


    argument with Tara?”


    The only possible exnation for his odd behavior was that he tried to vent his grievance on her.


    Otherwise, why would he look angrier than before?

    Indeed, she had moved, but it had nothing to do with him.


    Odell did not answer. Instead, lie asked, “Where’s your new ce?”


    “It’s the newly developed mansion behind the Carters’ mansion.”


    “You rented a mansion?” His faze remained keen.


    Sylvia noclded.


    “The rent isn’t cheap.”


    “It isn’t.”


    “Where did you get the money for it?” “My earnings.”


    Earnings? Her monthly sry was too little to rent a mansion that expensive. A quick thoughtter, Odell


    asked, “Did you use the money Isabel made from her endorsement and advertisement?”


    Sylvia was irritated but remained calm. “No, I earned the money myself.”


    The money that Isabel earned was safely kept in the bank ount. She did not even use a single


    penny.


    Odell scossed. “Then, the money must be from ‘Tristan.”


    Sylvia was speechless. She had said twice that she used her own money, but he chose to ignore every


    single word. She inhaled deeply and then said, “Odell, I’m using my own money.”


    Odell did not care as he did not believe what she said.


    Sylvia had repeated it three times now, and yet he still refused to believe her.


    “Is there anything else? If not, I’m leaving.” She still had to help Aunt Tonya clean up the ce.


    Odell picked up his cup of coffee for a sip.


    Sylvia thought that was it, so she wanted to get up. “There’s one more thing,” he said.
