Chapter 684


    Sylvia’s tense body rxed as she breathed a sign of relief and cursed her own nerves,


    She had seen everything with her own eyes, how could there be anything fishy going on?


    What a big man. Did he really have such a difficult time admitting what he had done?


    Moreover, she had not even tried to me him. All she had said was that she wanted him to release Thomas


    Thankfully, by locking her out on the balcony, at least she would not have to sleep with him.


    with that thought in mind, Sylvia curled herself up and leaned against the wall to sleep.


    The night breeze was a bit chilly during this season but it was not bone-chillingly cold. The breeze blowing lightly on her was


    actually quitefortable.


    After a while, Sylvia fell asleep. Seconds turned into minutes.


    The man stood in front of the window in the study room next door as he smoked.


    The wind came in from the opened window and carried the smoke away. His gloomy expression slowly eased, until he reached


    thest cigarette in the box.


    He tossed the box into the trash can and left the study room.


    Two hours had already passed, so he assumed Sylvia must have figured it out by now. He walked to the balcony next door and


    saw Sylvia sleeping on the balcony.


    He was stunned.


    His gloomy expression blended together with the shadows.


    After a moment of silence, he pursed his lips and went out onto the balcony. He then carried her into his arms and went back


    inside the room.


    After a dreamless night, Sylvia woke up to find the sun shining on her. She was still in Odell’s room but she noticed that the bed


    was tidy and she even still had her clothes on.


    He had notld a finger on herst night.


    Sylvia got out of bed and went outside.


    Sebastian was in the living room, smiling at her when she came down.


    Sylvia smiled at him politely and asked, “Sebastian, where’s Odell?”Original content from N?velDrama.Org.


    “Master went out carly this morning,” he said Sylvia nodded in silenu’r and went back to her house next door


    She ate breakfast with her two little ones before alle called Thomas with her phone.


    She called multiple times but she did not receive any reply. Her anxiety rose. Sylvia called for a ride and headed to Thomas’


    vi.


    She stopped by a shop to buy some breakfast for Thomas, thinking that she would sneak it inside for him.


    Awhileter, she arrived at the vi.


    She was afraid that the bodyguards might confiscate the breakfast she had brought for Thomas, so she got out of the car ata


    rather inconspicuous entrance on the side. The moment she snuck closer to the door, several intimidating men in suits came


    over. They looked her up and down and noticed the bag of food that she held in her hands. They ordered, “Throw that away.”


    Sylvia stepped back and cautiously stared at them. “Did Odell send you guys here?” They were dressed differentlypared to


    the usual bodyguards and there were no familiar faces as well. Though other than Odell, no one else would have arranged for


    any bodyguards to be here.


    The leader of the group answered, “Yes, Master Carter stationed us here.”


    As expected.
