Chapter 798


    Meanwhile, another ck MPV cruised on the road smoothly and arrived at the Springsteen family’s mansion in less than 20


    minutes.


    “Master Carter , thank you for sending me home,” Lily said with a sweet smile.


    “You''re wee,” he answered coldly.


    Lily noticed the grumpy look and she assumed it was because of Sylvia’s embarrassment, so she got out of the car without


    saying anything.


    “Goodnight, Master Carter.”


    Lily waved at him and then headed into the house.


    The car drove away as soon as she walked in.? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    It was quiet inside the car. The man’s eyes were glued to the front and his expression was frosty as usual.


    He had a nce at his watch. It had been 20-plus minutes since they left the hotel and since that woman was living near the Art


    Academy, she should have gotten home by now.


    He took his phone out and texted her.


    Thest message he received from her was her updating


    him about the kids’ homework.


    A few seconds of hesitationter, he started typing.


    “Are you home yet?”


    He stared at the screen after he hit the “Send” button.


    The car continued cruising and seconds turned into minutes.


    However, he did not receive a reply even after 10 minutes. Given how much of a coward she had be, it was impossible for


    her to ignore his text, unless her condition was acting up again.


    He wore a disheartened look and immediately called her.


    The dialing tone sounded but no one picked up. He immediately said to the driver, “Turn around. To Sylvia’s ce.”


    “Yes, sir!” the driver answered immediately and made a U -turn at the junction. Another 20 minutester, the car arrived at


    Sylvia’s ce.


    Odell dashed out of the car and strode to the door.


    He broke her lock the other day, so Sylvia had a new fingerprint lock installed. On the same night, he registered his fingerprints


    into the lock to gain ess.


    He put his thumb on the scanner and the door opened up


    with a beep.


    He strode through the dark living room and went to her room on the second floor.


    He knocked on the door but there was no reply.


    He put his hand on the doorknob and wanted to open it.


    At the same time, Sylvia just turned off the shower in the bathroom. She did not bring her pajamas inside , so she simply


    wrapped herself in a towel and went outside.


    The moment she stepped out of the bathroom, her room door opened.


    Before she could react, the man’s towering figure appeared within her sight. The man shot a deep gaze at her as soon as he


    stepped in. Sylvia widened her eyes in shock. “Odell? What are you doing here?” Odell was shocked by what he saw.


    Her porcin skin glistened under the light, the towel might have veiled her private parts but her shoulder and slender legs were


    eye-catching as well. The blush on her face made her look extremely alluring. He narrowed his eyes and slightly curled his lips.


    The nervousness in him faded instantly.


    He moved his long legs and walked closer to her.


    Sylvia instinctively stepped back and stared at him cautiously. She said, “Odell, | just finished my shower. Can you go downstairs


    and wait for me? I''ll be there after | get dressed.”


    He did not stop. He strode up to her and shut the bathroom door behind her to prevent her from slipping inside again.


    Sylvia backed up to the ss door nervously. She held her towel up with her hand and stared at him feebly.


    Odell shadowed her with his towering figure. He pped the ss door next to her right ear and lifted her chin with his other


    hand.


    “Why didn’t you reply to my message?” he asked.


    Sylvia was taken aback. “You texted me?”
