Chapter 1337


    Chapter 1337 Sylvia was already out of town. Why was he heading home so early?


    Was it because he had three children at home?


    Upon realizing this, a look of awe surfaced in Shermaine‘s eyes. She was wholly captivated by this man.


    Not only was he handsome like a prince and more capable than most men, but he was also a man who was loyal and dedicated


    to his family.


    She wagered that even if Odell happened to have the slightest bit of interest in her, his inbred sense of loyalty to his family would


    compel him to suppress his desire.


    She decided that she could no longer follow Aunt Ruth‘s advice. So long as she remained passive , there would be no


    developments at all between them even if she waited for another year or two.


    With this in mind, she racked her brain and tried toe up with something.


    Odell returned home.


    Liam and Isabel hade back from school as well.


    Flint was lying on the couch with Isabel. Both of them


    screwed their eyes onto their tablets. Isabel was watching her favorite show while Flint watched a cartoon.


    Madam Carter was nearby and chatting with Aunt Tonya.


    Liam was not in the living room. Chances were that he was in his room ying on theputer as usual.


    Odell sat at the dining table and sipped tea while watching the rest of the family members. From time to time, he would exchange


    some words with Madam Carter.


    They hung around in the living room until it was dinner time.


    After they had dinner, it was almost eight o''clock. Odell was about to tell them to head back to their rooms when Isabel''s phone


    began ringing.


    Odell could tell from the ringing that it was a video call.


    Everyone in the living room suddenly fell silent.


    Odell took a peek at Isabel.


    Flint and Liam who were already halfway up the stairs suddenly turned around and drew over to Isabel''s side.


    The three children suddenly turned to Odell with a cautious look in their eyes.


    Their demeanor suddenly turned vignt. It was as if they had some reason to be wary of Odell.


    Odell made a look and remained seated at the dining table


    about five meters away from them.


    Once Isabel was sure that Odell would not approach, she epted the video call.


    Her eyes along with Liam and Flint''s radiated with joy the moment the video call connected.


    Flint was the first to cry out enthusiastically, “Mommy—”


    Sylvia‘s voice as she greeted them was like music to their ears, “Hey!”


    It brought them an immediate sense of joy.


    It sure looked like she was having a good time over there without her husband and her children.


    Odell reflected as he clenched the cup tightly in his hands. A look of displeasure colored his eyes instantly. The children


    immediately started bickering away at the phone. Isabel asked, “Mommy, why do you look a little pale? Is it cold?”


    Sylvia answered , “Mommy just came back from a walk. It''s very very cold outside but don''t worry, | made sure to wear more


    layers of clothing so the cold didn''t get to me.” Isabel was amused. “Oh, oh~”


    Flint quickly asked, “Mommy, where did you go today?” Sylvia said, “Mommy went to two different ces today. |


    went to see the frozenke, then | went to a famous local street where | bought some interesting little toys for you kids.”


    As Sylvia said this, she reached for several toys outside of the frame and presented them in front of the camera.N?velDrama.Org holds this content.


    Flint was overjoyed and certainly let it show. “Wow, it''s so pretty! Flint loves it!”


    Isabel pinched his cheeks and expressed with mock disdain, “Hey you fatso Flint, could you stop being so dramatic?”


    Flint pouted. “But I''m telling the truth.”


    Isabel lifted her foot and yfully kicked him away.


    Flint dodged out of the way and burrowed himself into his brother''s arms for safety. .


    Liam put his arms around him.


    Sylvia spoke up to distract them, “Liam, did anything happen to you and your sister at school over thest two days?”


    Liam answered stoically, “Not much.”


    Isabel suddenly eximed, “Mommy, Liam won first ce in the district-wide mathpetition again.”


    Sylvia‘s eyes glowed with pride. “Wow! That''s my boy!”


    The man who was seated at the dining table and sipping


    tea suddenly darted a nce over.


    Liam turned toward the camera and then gazed at his mother on the disy quietly, his lips slowly curled into a soft, faint smile.


    Odell''s mood was gradually worsening.


    The brat won apetition and this was the first time he ever heard anything about it!


    Isabel barely even bothered to mention it to him! These ungrateful little brats!
