Edmund frowned and asked out of annoyance, “So? What the hell are you trying to say?” Tara giggled
and said, “Mr. Price, I’m saying Sylvia doesn’t love Odell at all. She loves you.” Edmund was taken
aback for a second before he wore an eerie grin. “Tara Avery, do I look like an idiot to you?”
Tara explained nervously, “Mr. Price, I’m telling the truth. If she doesn’t like you, she’d have let Odell
touch her.”
“Maybe she’s in love with another man, why me?” Edmund scoffed and exposed Tara’s little scheme.
“Tara, you better put your lousy plan away. If you want Odell to look at you again, you better find
something in yourself that’s worth loving, not using me as your pawn.”
She came all the way to tell him all this nonsense because she wanted him to snatch Sylvia away or
ruin Odell and Sylvia’s marriage so that she could seize the opportunity for herself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTara did not expect the rejection at all. She quickly explained, “Mr. Price, I’m not using you. I’m just
trying to get back to Odell but I don’t want you and Sylvia to be apart. So, I’m just trying to create a win-
win-”
Smash!
Edmund smashed a bottle of beer on the floor.
Startled, Tara screamed and faltered backward in fear.
Edmund glared at her with menacing eyes and warned her, “Tara, you better get the f*ck out of my face
or I’ll expose your dirty past to the public. I’ll tell the media how you ruined people’s families and make
them go bankrupt. I’ll make sure you cannot live in Westchester City anymore!” 1 Tara’s expression
changed and she left hurriedly.
After running out of Lush Heaven, Tara returned to her car with a bitter look and cursed out loud, “That
good-for-nothing f*cking b*stard!” She vented her emotions for quite a while before she finally regained
her cool. She could not just give up like that. She had to make something happen between Odell and
Sylvia so that Odell would abandon that b*tch!
Carter residence.
Odell had to attend a meeting after work, so he would be home late. He called Sylvia beforehand and
informed them to go ahead with dinner.
After dinner, the two little ones returned to their room to get changed and be prepared for bed.
When Sylvia came out of the bathroom, she saw them whispering to each other.
The two of them looked serious as they exchanged whispers. Out of curiosity, Sylvia asked, “Isabel,
Liam, what are you guys talking about?”.
The two little ones separated immediately. Isabel’s eyes shifted as she turned to Liam. Liam then
answered, “We’re talking about playschool.” “Playschool? Did something interesting happen?” “It’s a
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsecret between us and our friends. We can’t tell you.” Sylvia was not overly bothered either. She put
her curiosity aside and started to read them a bedtime story.
The two of them concentrated on the story and after a while, their eyes started to close. Sylvia put the
storybook down and switched off the lights, leaving only the dim nightlight for Odell.
As sleepiness took over, Sylvia also went to bed.
Around twenty minutes later, footsteps came from outside the door.
Odell was back from work.
Seeing the fast asleep mother and children, he slinked into the bathroom for a bath.
He came out after he washed himself up and got changed into some fresh new pajamas. Similar to two
nights before, he placed Liam aside and crawled up to Sylvia’s side and hugged: her in his arms.
Just when he was about to close his eyes, the edge of his sight noticed two tiny figures sitting beside
him.
His eyes suddenly widened, and he turned around to find Liam sitting up. Even Isabel who was
sleeping on the other side sat up.
