Chapter 255 “He won‘t hurt me.” ‘He will just probably prohibit me from seeing the children again.’ ..


    Sylvia was agitated and immediately lost the mood to exin the paintings to Edmund. She said, “You


    look around by yourself. I‘ll go back first.” Edmund quickly followed her and asked, “What‘s wrong, Lil


    Syl?” “I‘m fine. I just want some time alone.”


    Edmund was silent. “Okay.” He then stopped following her, and Sylvia quickly walked out of the venue.


    Odell and Tara were probably still on the other side of the field since Sylvia went straight to the parking


    lot without seeing them. She got into her car and stayed there for a while. When she calmed down, she


    took out her phone and sent a message to Odell.


    “Edmund and I are just friends. He‘s a nice guy. He didn‘t mean to provoke you earlier. If you‘re unhappy,


    I‘ll apologize to you.”


    A long time passed, but the screen remained nk. She did not know if he read the message or not.


    Either way, he did not reply to her.


    Eventually, Sylvia put away her phone gloomily. ‘I know that Edmund has a bad reputation. I can


    understand why he doesn‘t want me to bring the children close to him, and I can do it too. ‘But why is he


    forbidding me from getting close to Edmund? We‘re just ordinary friends. ‘Why do I have to do as he


    says? Why do I have to apologize to him?‘ Sylvia got more annoyed the more she thought about it. At


    that moment, her phone rang. She thought that Odell replied to her and hurriedly turned on her phone.


    However, what she saw was a message from Edmund. He sent her a very interesting emoji and asked,


    “Lil Syl, have you gone back?” Sylvia replied, “Not yet. Do you need something?” Edmund replied, “Let‘s


    have dinner together. I‘ve already called Sherry as well. We‘ll have a feast.”


    Since he already called Sherry, Sylvia naturally had no reason to refuse. She replied, “Okay.”


    At the event venue, not long after Sylvia left, Odell also stepped out.

    Tara quickly chased after him. She held his arm and asked with a puzzled and aggrieved face,” Odell,


    why are you leaving now? Didn‘t you agree to spend this afternoon with me?” Odell said coldly, “I have


    work to do.” “Are you going to find Sylvia?” she suddenly asked. Odell looked down at Tara and saw that


    her eyes were filled with tears. She looked particrly wronged and hurt.


    He immediately frowned. “Tara, 1–” Tara threw herself into his arms and hugged him, saying, “Don‘t go,


    Odell. Stay with me, okay? I‘m really afraid of losing you again. I don‘t want to go back to the life where I


    can only watch you be with another woman.”


    Her voice choked up as she spoke. Odell immediately hugged her in his arms. “I‘m sorry, Tara.” He was


    impulsive and ignored her feelings. “Odell, I know that Edmund isn‘t a good person, but he seems really


    nice to Sylvia. Sylvia and you have been divorced for so many years, so it‘s time for her to find another


    partner.” Tara looked up from his arms and gazed at him softly. “If she‘s with someone else, she won‘t


    come and destroy our rtionship again, right?”
