Sylvia frowned and replied, “Yes, but I went there to be with the children. I didn’t do anything besides
that.”
“You’re a woman who runs to your ex-husband’s house every single day and stays late into the night.
How is it that you do nothing but spend time with the children?” Ramona was furious at the direct look
that Sylvia was giving her and glared at her. “I think you’re truly contemptible and shameless!” Sylvia’s
body turned cold and she immediately clenched her hands.
Seeing that Sylvia continued to look as if she had not done anything wrong, Ramona sneered, “Stop
pretending to act noble in front of me. If you hadn’t done anything, you wouldn’t have followed Thomas
abroad and come back with a big belly. If you have any shame, then stay away from Odell. He has a
fiancee now. You’re not even bothered about maintaining your own virtue. How dare you try to steal
Lily’s man?” After saying that, she barked at her driver. “Hurry up and drive. Just looking at her makes
my eyes feel dirty.” The driver immediately closed the door and returned to the driver’s seat.
The high-class MPV quickly drove away and disappeared.

She could not even be sure whether it was because the wind was too cold, but her body felt like it was
freezing.
The words Ramona had said were like a magic spell that continued to reverberate in her head.
‘Shameless.
‘Contemptible and shameless.
‘Not bothered about maintaining your own virtue.
‘Just looking at her makes my eyes feel dirty…’
Every word was like a sharp and icy thorn.
The more Sylvia thought about it, the more her body stiffened up
After a long time, she finally came back to her senses when her phone rang. Isabel was calling her.
Her hand trembled as she brought the phone to her ear.
“Mommy, where are you? Why aren’t you here yet?” The little girl’s crisp and childish voice sounded
out.
Sylvia’s tense body suddenly loosened. She smiled and said, “I was a little delayed by something. I’ll
be right over.”
“Okay, then hurry up. Liam and I are waiting for you.”
“Yeah, I’ll be there soon.”
Hanging up the phone, Sylvia took a deep breath and went to the roadside to hail a cab.
When she arrived at the old Carter residence, she found that Odell had already left. Isabel and Liam
ran over to
her.
Both their faces were adorable.
The moment Sylvia saw them, her mood eased greatly.
However, what Ramona had said continued to ring in her head from time to time.

her play anymore but patiently coaxed her to do her homework.
However, the little girl still wanted to play and kept acting like a pampered child.
Sylvia could not bear to be strict with her, so she made up an excuse and said, “Isabel, be a good girl
and do your homework. I have to go home early at night, or your little brother or sister will be
uncomfortable.”
Isabel’s eyes widened. “Why would my little brother or sister be uncomfortable?”
Liam also looked over.
Sylvia said stiffly, “Because I have to rest early. It’s not bad for the baby if I rest late.”
Actually, she would accompany the little ones to nap here every day, so she had enough daily sleep.
When Isabel heard this, she pursed her small lips, and her chubby face immediately looked contrite.
“Mommy, did you and baby not rest well before?”
Sylvia quickly said, “No, I was fine before. I just didn’t feel well rested these past two days.”
