“Hahaha...”Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.
They beganughing heartily upon seeing Isabel''s confident taunts. Part of it was because they were charmed by how cute she
was, but theirughter was also mixed with some ridicule.
That was no surprise, considering how Isabel and Liam were a pair of four-year-olds, while both Sylvia and Odell looked fairly
skinny.
One thing they had to admit was that this was a rather good-looking family. Isabel was so angered by this that she turned around
and cried out to Sylvia and Odell,” Mummy, Baddie, we have to show them what we’re capable of!”
Sylvia answered meekly,cking the confidence to back up Isabel''s talk, “Okay.”
Odell smirked, “Got it.” Shortly after that, upon the referee’s signal, they all picked up the rope.
Then, the whistle sounded.
The rope was jerked into a straight line in an instant.
Although Sylvia was not very confident about their chances this round, she gave it her all for Isabel’s sake.
Within seconds, she felt the rope being tugged in their direction as they all took several steps backward, drawn by the
momentum of their pull.
The referee blew the whistle and raised a hand to dere the winners.
Sylvia was baffled. Isabel jumped up and down enthusiastically, “Yay, Mommy, Baddie, you two are so strong!” Sylvia chuckled
dryly, before hearing Odell chuckle the same way she had from behind her. She could not quite put her finger into it, but she
could make out what seemed to be a sarcastic element in Odell’s dry chuckle. It must be because she had contributed next to
nothing, it was mostly thanks to his strength that they managed to win. She turned to look at him.
Odell smiled and stroked her head, “Come on, let’s go to the next round.”
After saying that, he went to the other side of the field.
Sylvia frowned and walked over to him with Isabel and Liam. Their final opponent was also a family of four, but they seemed on
the thinner sidepared to their first two opponents. The children were not particrlyrge either.
However, they knew better than to judge a book by its cover. Theirst two opponents had seemed very strong but what had
been the oue? They had managed to defeat them.
Sylviaposed herself for the finals. The moment the whistle sounded, they yanked at the rope with all their strength, nearly
causing their opponents to tumble to the ground and drag their bodies against the grass.
Needless to say, they won first ce.
Isabel jumped in celebration,
Odell caught her in his arms and carried her to the podium. Isabel happily imed the mermaid doll and wrapped her arms
around them.
The sun was setting by now, and their side of the mountain was basked underneath the evening glow.
Isabel sat in Odell’s arms, still holding the mermaid doll with a wide grin on her face With a satisfied smile on his face, Odell
turned to look in Sylvia’s direction. The afterglow of the setting sun cast on his handsome face and suddenly filled Sylvia with an
unnerving, dizzy feeling.
She immediately looked away. Odell approached her with Isabel in his arms.
Isabel showed her the doll, “Mommy, look Isn’t this doll pretty?”
Sylvia looked at the doll and said to her with a smile, “It’s beautiful.”
Isabel chuckled.
“There’s a hot spring and restaurantbo over there, let’s go get some rest at the hot spring, then we''ll eat dinner,” said Odell,
making the decision for them,
Before Sylvia could offer any opinion, Isabel held up the doll in her hand and announced,” Okay! I’m going to the hot spring in my
mermaid dress!” Sylvia had no choice but to take Liam and follow both father and daughter.
When they arrived at the hot spring, they were attended to by the staff members.
They were taken to a separate section of the yard.
There was arge hot spring that had steam rising atop its surface.
The water was clean and slowed like a steady stream.
The staff promptly left after taking them here.
Sylvia took Isabel to the women’s locker room while Odell took Liam to the men’s locker room.
Both father and son were wearing ck bathrobes with belts over their very simr, lean figures.
Sylvia wore a white bathrobe with a belt tied around her waist, while Isabel wore a red dress that they had just bought, with frills
that had been stitched like the fins of a mermaid.
The dress was not very tight-fitting but was wrappedfortably around her chubby little body.
