Sylvia silently withdrew her gaze.
The car crossed several streets and stopped outside the gates of the Carters’
Yes, it was the Carters’.
There were two villas in the residence. The one on the east was where Sylvia used to live with Odell,
and the one on the west that had been empty for a long time was where Thomas and his mother used
to live.
At that moment, the west villa was lit up, and the entrance was guarded by bodyguards.
Thomas was obviously imprisoned here.
Sylvia got out of the car and obediently trailed behind Odell.
Before long, they arrived at a clean and tidy study on the second floor. However, there was no one
around.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was stunned and was about to open her mouth to ask Odell where Thomas was, but she
immediately shut her mouth in fear when she saw his sudden glance.
He looked at her askance. “If you want to see him, just stay here.” What did that mean?
Sylvia did not understand.
Nevertheless, he turned around and walked out before she could reply.
Thud.
The door of the room was gently closed.
She wrinkled her brows in confusion.
Then, there was the sound of the door opening and the scrape of a chair from next door. Sylvia quickly
went to the wall and pressed her ear against it.
At that moment, in the quiet and empty room next door, the moment Odell came, a dim light was turned
on in the darkness.
A young man wearing a white shirt sat on a chair by the window. His figure was slender and held a faint
trace of loneliness.
When he heard the sound of approaching footsteps, his eyelids slowly opened. The clear, cold
gaze in his eyes did not change as he asked, “Odell, why did you bring me here?”
Odell directly sat on the sofa not far away. His straight legs were folded together, and his arms were
crossed in front of his body as he looked ahead with a cold and oppressive gaze. “You know very well
why.” Thomas smiled and asked, “Is it because Sylvia and I getting together made you unhappy?”
Odell curled his lips. “I’ll naturally get even with you for that eventually, but what we’re talking about
now has nothing to do with that.”
“Then, what is it?” he asked. Odell looked at him with sharp eyes. Thomas met his gaze, his clear and
cold eyes unflinching and unchanged.
The air was quiet for a while before Odell said, “I didn’t expect you to be so shrewd.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Thomas replied.
Odell pursed his lips as his expression went cold.

names. Then, he asked, “You know all these people, right?”
Thomas replied without changing his expression, “No.”
The corners of Odell’s mouth pulled down coldly. “But they all claim that they know you.” Thomas’s
gaze flickered. After two seconds, he replied, “I have some shares in Carter Corporation, and they’re all
shareholders of the company, so it’s not strange that they know me.”
Odell narrowed his eyes. “How did you know they were shareholders of the company?” The air was
quiet for another two seconds.
Thomas looked at him and answered, “I read the news about you on my phone before you confiscated
it.”
Odell’s sharp eyes continued to stare at him. “Then, why did you say that you didn’t know them
earlier?”
“I haven’t met them in real life, so it’s true that I don’t know them.” Odell sneered. “You’re good at
making excuses.” Thomas smiled. “I’m just telling the truth.”
