Chapter 210 (Yeah. I‘m full already.” Odell wiped his hands and addressed Tara again, “I have


    something I need to doter. You just get an early rest.”


    Tara took his arm into hers and fixed him with a longing look, pressing her body into his almost


    subconsciously. She whispered, “Odell, Liam and Isabel should have fallen asleep by this time. Why


    don‘t you stay with me tonight?” Odell fell silent for a moment before forming an answer, “I need to head


    back to thepany to deal with something.” “Okay.” Tara let go of him reluctantly. Odell caressed her


    head gently as if to providefort, then he got up and walked out. Tara did not think much of the


    episode. He had always been very busy since the day she knew him, especially since Sylvia birthed


    those two brats to add to his trouble. Even before Sylvia brought Isabel into the picture, he seldom spent


    the night with her because he needed to go home to take care of the miserable brat, Liam. It was


    partially because the brat


    stayed with Madam Carter, forcing Odell to move back from his ce to the Madam’s. He simply had too


    many responsibilities in thepany, so even if he spent the night at her ce, he would end up


    spending the night in the study. Furthermore, her miscarriage had made her body especially vulnerable


    and she could no. longer have children since doing so maybe bring about life–threateningplications.


    Odell was extremely worried about something terrible happening to her and treated her like fine china,


    resulting in him avoiding nearly all physical contact with her. The thought that she could not get pregnant


    again greatly infuriated Tara. This was all the fault of that wretched Sylvia! She had to throw herself off


    the stairs to force Odell‘s hand in divorcing Sylvia! Although the truth was that she never nned to birth


    the child, to begin with, that fall had caused moreplications to her health than she bargained for!


    .


    A ck sports car was darting across the highway. Within twenty minutes, the car had arrived and


    stopped outside the door of the old residence. He peeked at the time. It was just past nine o‘clock, and


    that woman probably was still around.


    Just as he was about to step out of the car, he noticed a slender figure emerging from the door.


    Odell turned his head in that direction.


    The weather was rather cold, so Sylvia was rubbing her hands together despite wearing a thick jacket.


    There was a thickyer of scarf wrapped around her feathered cor as well.


    Under the gentle moonlight, her fair cheeks seemed whiter and more reflective than usual.


    They seem to exude a fine light on their own.


    NEW


    Odell narrowed his eyes, then unbuckled his seatbelt and pushed the door open. Sylvia, who had just


    walked out, heard the door open and immediately turned to the source of the sound. When she saw


    Odell‘s tall figure, she became startled and immediately took off. She did not bound toward him but went


    in the opposite direction instead. She vanished in the blink of an eye, like a rabbit escaping its predator.

    The way she ran, one would think he was going to eat her!


    Isabel and Liam went back to kindergarten for two more days, and after that, winter breakmenced.


    Early that morning, Isabel had called Sylvia and requested her to take her and her brother to dinner


    earlier than usual to celebrate the arrival of the winter break. Knowing that Odell was going to be out on


    a business trip for the next few days, she dly agreed. After picking out two small gifts for Isabel and


    Liam during the afternoon, Sylvia went to their ce. The car that usually took them to and fro school


    was outside the entrance. They must have gotten home already.


    The door was also open, and Sylvia walked in brashly. When she got past the threshold of t living room,


    she called out, “Liam, Isabel, I‘m here. Are you guys here?”


    Only the soft, cutting sound of wind answered her. Sylvia was puzzled and stepped further inside. She


    saw Odell in the spacious living room. He wore a ck tight–fitting shirt and was sitting by himself on the


    sofa drinking tea.


    There was not another soul in the living room apart from the housemaids serving him tea. Neither


    Madam Carter nor the children were present. Sylvia stopped. Although she did not want to see him at


    this moment, she questioned him all the same, “Odell, where are Liam and Isabel?” Odell took a sip of


    his tea before giving an answer, “They‘re in the room.”
