Chapter 782
Isabel lay on Sylvia’s stomach, rubbing her little face onto the stomach. “I’m sorry, baby. I didn’t mean
to do it. I just wanted to stay with Mommy a little longer.”
After saying that, the girl obediently sat behind the desk and picked up the pen. She also did not forget
to call out to Liam. “Liam, hurry up and teach me how to do my homework.”
The little girl figured that the sooner she finished her homework, the sooner she would be able to play
with her mommy and let her go back to rest early.
Liam put his book down and sat next to her.
Sylvia pursed her lips and forced back the stinging in her eyes.
The little girl was very efficient when she decided to be serious, and she finished all her homework in
less than half an hour. Then, she clung to Sylvia’s side again.
Sylvia smiled and kissed her, then she played games with her and Liam.
When it was almost dark, Odell’s car came back.
Sylvia took their completed homework and came to the

The man’s tall and straight figure walked in through the door.
Sylvia smiled at him.
Odell glanced at her and sat down on the sofa.
“Odell, they’ve finished their homework today.” Sylvia walked up to him and handed the children’s
homework to him for him to check as usual.
Odell looked at Isabel behind her.
The little girl and Liam both clung to Sylvia’s side, each child hugging one leg each as they looked at
him obediently with their little chubby faces.
However, Odell frowned.
He knew that the little girl did not usually do her homework until the evening. Why was she so well
behaved today?
Before he could figure it out, she suddenly pouted at him and muttered, “Hurry up and check the
homework, Baddie. Mommy and baby have to go back early to rest.”

His eyes darkened as he looked at Sylvia.
Sylvia gave him a polite and pleasant smile.
“Daddy, it’s almost dark. Hurry up.” Liam also suddenly urged him.
Odell instantly withdrew his gaze and looked at their homework with a cold face.
He glanced at it quickly and finished flipping through it in just two minutes.
Sylvia asked, “They did well, right?” “Hm.” His voice was low and displeased.
Sylvia also sensed his displeasure, but she did not want to figure out what it meant. Furthermore,
Ramona’s words were still echoing in her head. She could not stay here until late at night for no
reason.
“Then I’ll take my leave now.” After that, she looked at Isabel and Liam. “Be good and go to sleep after
dinner. I’ll come see you again tomorrow.” Isabel said, “Okay.” Liam also hummed in reply. Sylvia

The two little ones followed at her heels. Only Odell remained sitting alone on the sofa, his face cold
and dark.
‘Go back to rest early? She usually goes back late. Has she not been getting enough rest?
‘Or is it because she doesn’t want to tire Thomas’ child in her belly?’
The night passed quickly. The next day, Sylvia came to the old residence on time.
Isabel was not as naughty as before and finished her homework with Liam early, leaving ample time to
spend with Sylvia.
Time flew by as they were having fun, and in the blink of an eye, evening had arrived. Sylvia waited
until it was dark but did not see Odell come back.
‘He should have been back a long time ago. Has he been delayed by something?’ At that thought, she
took out her phone and sent him a message. “Odell, are you on the way back?”
After waiting for a few minutes without a reply, she immediately took her phone, photographed the
homework that the children had completed, and sent it to him page by page.
