Chapter 536
Sylvia gave a troubled look They walked out of the restaurant together and strolled along a path leading back to the academy
Sylvia spoke her mind, “Thomas, please let me pay the bill next time.” Although she was divorced from Odell, she still considered
Thomas her younger brotherBelonging to N?velDrama.Org.
Furthermore, he had rescued her not once but twice in her times of greatest need She simply did not loow how she could ever
repay the favor she owed him, and she certainly could not have Thomas paying for her food
“Yeah.” He grunted.
Sylvia breathed a sigh of relief.
After a while, they reached the academy office, beside which was his office
After saying their goodbyes, the two of them went back to their respective offices.
Since Sylvia did not teach academic courses, her sses had a looser structure.
She had prepared everything in advance, and the students had very good dynamics with her as well. The two sses she taught
turned out to be very rxing and productive.
The two sses flew by in the blink of an eye. She returned to the office, ready to pack her things and head to the kindergarten
to pick up Isabel and Liam.
However, she stumbled into Thomas again when she was leaving her office
He wore a crear-colored coat over his white shirt, the drape of the fabric perfectlyplementing hisnky figure. He could
easily pass for a model. Sylvia asked him with a smile, “Thomas, are you done for the day as well?”
“Yeah.”
“Where do you stay?” “I stay in the school dormitory.” After a pause, he looked at her and asked, “What about you?”
“| live in the area.” Sylvia looked at the time and saw that she was runningte, so she hurriedly said to him, “See you. | need to
pick Isabel and Liam up from kindergarten.”
“See you.”
Sylvia turned and trotted in the direction of the stairs,
Thomas stood like a statue and quietly observed her figure from behind.
Sylvia arrived at the kindergarten just as their sses ended.
Isabel and Liain walked out together holding hands as usual. They trotted toward Sylvia the
moment they saw her
Delighted to see them, she kissed them on the checks and took them home
As always, Sylvia yed with thein for a wuleafter dinner, then she told them bedtime stories and waited until they fell asleep
before heading back to her room
In Carter Tower, Westchester City, it was already midnight, but the lights in the office on the top floor were still turned on
There was a tall figure of a man sitting on a leather chair, illuminated by the ceiling hghts After reviewing the final document, he
looked at the watch on his wrist He zipped his lips into a line and swung the chair around to face the window He looked at the
night view of the city. the tint in his eyes as ck as the night sky
Knock knock
There was someone at the door
Odell called out, “Come in.” Cliff opened the door and walked in cautiously
“Master Carter, you''ve already arranged everything for the next half month Do you want to go back and get some rest?” Odell
pursed his lips, “How are things over there looking like Cliff did not need any further boration to know that he was talking
about Sylvia
Since he and Sylvia divorced, he had been in the office almost every day from top to bottom. everyone from the managers to the
janitors was wracked with nerves, knowing that they had to face the man every hour of the day.
Upon hearing this, he informed in a servile way, “Noi much, the missus stays home most of the time as usual. She went to the art
academy today. It seems like she was recently recruited as a guest professor at the academy”
Guest professor? That was hardly surprising. With her talent and reputation, she was more than qualified to be a guest
professor.
Aglimpse of a grin appeared in the corners of his thin lips as he informed, “I''ll be sleeping here tonight as well, so you can head
back.”
Chiff answered curtly. “Yes, sir”
Sylvia only had two sses a week at the acadeiny, one on Monday and the other on Thursday. thus she had plenty of time to
