If he had the time to text her and inform her to video call him, why didn’t he just video call her
straightaway? Sylvia speechlessly tightened her lips as she video-called Odell. The call got through
and his handsome face appeared on screen. It still seemed to be daytime on his side as he was sitting
beside the floor-to-ceiling window.
He stared at her in silence. Sylvia took the initiative and asked, “Have you eaten?” “I’ve taken my
lunch.” “We just had dinner.” Sylvia then moved the phone further away and allowed Isabel and Liam
into the frame. When Odell saw the mother and children sitting together, his frosty expression looked

“Did anything happen today?” “The same ol’ stuff. Isabel and Liam went to school and came back
Being the good kids they are, nothing much happened.” Odell hummed a reply. Sylvia then turned to
Isabel and Liam. “Isabel, Liam, do you guys have anything to say to Daddy?” Liam stared at the screen
with his big eyes and said with a solemn stare, “Nothing.”
Sylvia was speechless. She then turned to Isabel, hoping for a different outcome.
Isabel was pouting as she bawled at Odell, “Big meanie, don’t you dare touch other women outside. If I
find out about your affairs, I’ll tell Mommy to divorce you!” Sylvia was at a loss for words. The girl must
have watched too many drama series with Aunt Tonya lately and picked up the bad influence there.
Just when Sylvia was trying to come up with appropriate words in her mind, Odell answered,” Okay,”
He looked calm and normal without the slightest irritation on his face. His lips were even curled into a
vague grin.
Listening to his assurance, Isabel smiled widely. She reigned the tone of an adult and said, ” Then, I
have nothing else to say. You can talk with Mommy.”
Odell then looked at Sylvía.
Sylvia did not know how to react to Isabel’s amusing comments. She looked at Odell and said,“ I’ll play
with them a little longer. You can go back to your work now.”
“I’m not busy at the moment.” Surprised, Sylvia asked, “Don’t you have work today?”

“Okay.”
“What’s wrong? Is there something you want to do?” he asked. “Nope, nothing.”
He raised a brow and asked, “Were you home during the day?” “I went out shopping with Sherry in the
afternoon,” Sylvia said. The odd conversation went on and on, and before they knew it, half an hour
passed. The conversation ran into a dead end as neither of them had any new topics to talk about.
Syvlai then said, “odell, the kids are tired. I have to tuck them in now.”
Odell pursed his lips and said, “Okay. Good night.” Sylvia then hung up the video call.
Isabel was already dozing off while Liam was yawning like crazy. Sylvia carried both of them to their
respective beds, tucked them into the sheets, and then returned to her room to rest.
