Chapter 198 Sylvia knew that they were doing this on purpose. She held back her chuckle and looked at
Odell and Tara.
Tara was obviously pissed, but she still forced herself to put on a smile despite having a strained
expression.
Odell frowned, and he did not look happy either. Soon, he looked toward Liam and Isabel.
Isabel was still in Sylvia‘s arms, and she did not even want to look at Tara. Liam looked straight forward,
his face cold and stiff.
Odell then glanced at Tara who lowered her head, looking a bit hurt. Even her eyes were red. She took
the initiative to say, “Odell, don‘t be unhappy. Since Liam and Isabel don‘t want to see me, I‘ll leave.”
After that, she stood up. Seeing her red eyes, Odell stood up after her and said; “I‘ll go somewhere else
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwith you.” Tara looked delighted, but she still said, “There‘s no need. You can eat with Liam and Isabel
here.”
Odell did not speak. He glanced at Sylvia and the two children and then walked away from his
seat.
Tara quickly caught up to him and took his arm discreetly. Their intimate figures soon walked out of the
restaurant. Sylvia‘s gaze flickered, and she said to Isabel and Liam softly, “Liam, Isabel, they‘re gone.
Let‘s eat.” Isabel turned her head over from Sylvia‘s arms and saw that Tara was indeed gone. She
immediately sat back beside her mother. Liam frowned at the seat previously occupied by Odell and then
picked up his fork. Although one person had left, Sylvia and the kids still had a great meal. After filling up
their stomachs, she brought them out of the restaurant and went straight back to her room. Both kids had
brought their undergarments with them. Sylvia washed them separately and changed them into their cute
pajamas. After that, she tucked them into bed.
This was the first time Sylvia had slept with Isabel since Odell had taken the little girl back to the Carters.
It was also the first time Sylvia was tucking Liam into bed after Odell threw her out of the Carters.
Isabel rolled on the bed happily. She pounced on Sylvia in excitement the moment her mother climbed
onto the bed.
Sylvia hugged and kissed her while smiling. Then, she looked at Liam. Compared to Isabel, Liam was
much quieter. He did not make a sound, appearing to be a little shy, and he also did not move. He sat
obediently beside Sylvia, staring at her quietly with his big eyes. “Liam, come to Mommy.” Sylvia held out
her hands at him with a bright smile. Liam rolled over and climbed into her arms at once. Although he
looked a little taller than Isabel, he was much lighter than her. Sylvia held him in her arms effortlessly.

he replied. “Okay.” Isabel climbed over from the side and hugged Sylvia‘s arms while murmuring,
“Mommy, I want to hold you too.” Sylvia touched her pudgy cheeks and smiled. “You will hold me, and I
will hold your brother. Is that alright?” Isabel looked at Liam and agreed readily. “Alright! Mommy will hold
Brother first tonight, and it will be my turn tomorrow night!” Sylvia smiled in relief. It was not that she was
biased, but she owed Liam too much. He might not have turned out to be as aloof and distant as he was
right now if she had stayed by his side for all those years. After it was decided, Sylvia started to tell them
some bedtime stories that she searched on her phone. Isabel and Liam cuddled with her and fell asleep
soon after. Sylvia also put down her phone and kissed their small faces. Then, she switched off the lights
and slept.
In the night, the cold wind enveloped the earth, and a layer of thin ice formed on the ground. Odell
returned to the homestay with Tara after dining at a restaurant.
