If he had the time to text her and inform her to video call him, why didn’t he just video call her


    straightaway? Sylvia speechlessly tightened her lips as she video-called Odell. The call got through and


    his handsome face appeared on screen. It still seemed to be daytime on his side as he was sitting


    beside the floor-to-ceiling window.


    He stared at her in silence. Sylvia took the initiative and asked, “Have you eaten?” “I’ve taken my lunch.”


    “We just had dinner.” Sylvia then moved the phone further away and allowed Isabel and Liam into the


    frame. When Odell saw the mother and children sitting together, his frosty expression looked warmer.


    “Did anything happen today?” “The same ol’ stuff. Isabel and Liam went to school and came back Being


    the good kids they are, nothing much happened.” Odell hummed a reply. Sylvia then turned to Isabel and


    Liam. “Isabel, Liam, do you guys have anything to say to Daddy?” Liam stared at the screen with his big


    eyes and said with a solemn stare, “Nothing.”


    Sylvia was speechless. She then turned to Isabel, hoping for a different oue.


    Isabel was pouting as she bawled at Odell, “Big meanie, don’t you dare touch other women outside. If I


    find out about your affairs, I’ll tell Mommy to divorce you!” Sylvia was at a loss for words. The girl must


    have watched too many drama series with Aunt Tonyately and picked up the bad influence there.


    Just when Sylvia was trying toe up with appropriate words in her mind, Odell answered,” Okay,”


    He looked calm and normal without the slightest irritation on his face. His lips were even curled into a


    vague grin.


    Listening to his assurance, Isabel smiled widely. She reigned the tone of an adult and said, ” Then, I


    have nothing else to say. You can talk with Mommy.”


    Odell then looked at Sylvía.


    Sylvia did not know how to react to Isabel’s amusingments. She looked at Odell and said,“ I’ll y


    with them a little longer. You can go back to your work now.”


    “I’m not busy at the moment.” Surprised, Sylvia asked, “Don’t you have work today?”


    Odell lifted his wrist to have a nce at his watch. “There’s a meeting, but it’s in three hours.”


    “Okay.”


    “What’s wrong? Is there something you want to do?” he asked. “Nope, nothing.”


    He raised a brow and asked, “Were you home during the day?” “I went out shopping with Sherry in the


    afternoon,” Sylvia said. The odd conversation went on and on, and before they knew it, half an hour


    passed. The conversation ran into a dead end as neither of them had any new topics to talk about.

    Syi then said, “odell, the kids are tired. I have to tuck them in now.”


    Odell pursed his lips and said, “Okay. Good night.” Sylvia then hung up the video call.


    Isabel was already dozing off while Liam was yawning like crazy. Sylvia carried both of them to their


    respective beds, tucked them into the sheets, and then returned to her room to rest.
