The difference in the treatment Thomas got then and the treatment Odell was getting now was like
night and day
Odell’s expression turned cold. He cupped her small face and directly sealed her lips.
“Mm!” Sylvia was forced to make a sound. She tried to struggle, but he was so strong that she could
not even lift her hands. She could only bite his lips fiercely.
However, the more she bit him, the more force he used.
After some time passed to the point that her mouth went numb, he finally let her go. His deep eyes
were covered with scarlet, staring at her like a beast.
Sylvia was instinctively afraid, but at that moment, the fire in her heart exceeded her fear of him. She
raised her hand and pushed him away, her voice choking as she berated him, “You’re a b*stard, Odell!
Let me go! I want to leave. I don’t want to be with you—”. Before she could finish shouting, her feet
were lifted off the ground, and she was picked up by her waist. She screamed in fear and shoved him.

Ben was not far away. Seeing that Odell was taking Sylvia away, he quickly went up to ask,” Master
Carter, should we leave the flowers?”.
Sylvia’s hand that was pummeling him suddenly stopped. Odell noticed her response and ordered word
for word in a gloomy voice, “Don’t leave a single one intact.”
Ben’s gaze trembled as he replied, “Yes, sir!” Sylvia immediately looked up and glared at the man in
front of her. Odell also glanced at her coldly and continued to carry her through the forest to the open
space outside where his car was parked.
The driver was inside the car and immediately opened the back door when he saw them.
Sylvia stopped struggling and let him throw her into the car. She immediately moved to the inside and
curled herself into a ball.
Odell sat beside her, seemingly not wanting to look at her. After sitting, he fixed his gloomy gaze
straight ahead.
The car soon started.
The atmosphere inside the car was silent and depressing.
After a long time, when the car drove out of the scenic area and came to a road with more traffic, she
quietly lowered the car window.
The breeze came through, and she opened her mouth to catch her breath. Her stuffy and tense
emotions instantly eased considerably.
Then, she took out her phone to send a message to Thomas, asking about his situation.
However, when she turned on the screen, a news notification popped up. The headline was: ”
Shocking! Carter Corporation’s crisis was actually part of Master Carter’s plan!”
Sylvia’s eyes flickered, and she immediately clicked on the news. It was a famous financial news
column in Westchester City.
As soon as she opened the page, she saw a photo of many reporters gathering in front of Carter Tower.
However, the most eye-catching part was not the group of reporters, but the few men who were
handcuffed by the police as they were surrounded by the reporters. Some of them were young while
some were older.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUnderneath that was a caption stating that they were all shareholders and executives of Carter
Corporation.
The reason they were taken away in handcuffs was that they had tampered with several of Carter
Corporation’s major projects. In other words, the crisis that the company encountered this time was
their doing.
The article used a lot of business jargon that Sylvia did not understand, so she merely skimmed
through it.
Then, she scrolled to the last page of the article where a photo was plastered across the screen.
The photo was inside the tower. It seemed to have been taken in a conference room. The executives
had not been handcuffed by the police yet and were all on their knees, begging and crying with ashen
faces.

They all knelt in the same direction, facing a man. The person who took the picture did not capture the
face of the man in that seat. There was only a long arm and a pair of straight legs as he leaned back
into the chair. However, from the man’s lazy but elegant sitting posture, it was not difficult to figure out
that he was Odell, the same person who was sitting beside her at this moment.
