Chapter 877
Unfortunately, he was unable to stay for long. After having a
quick breakfast, he left for work.
Even on the weekend, he left early in the morning.
Sylvia had been staying at home for more than a week, so she made plans to go out with Aunt Tonya and the kids
for a change of environment.
They went on a day trip to the amusement park and only returned home in the evening.
Even at that time, Odell still did not come home for dinner.
Seeming to sense Sylvia’s feelings of melancholy , Sebastian said to her, “Madam, Master Carter often forgets to
eat when he’s working. Why don’t you take some food over to his office for him?”
Sylvia’s face lit up, but after thinking about it, she said, “I don’t think so, I believe he’ll be too busy.”
Sebastian smiled. “No matter how busy he is, he still has to eat. He wouldn’t refuse it if you were the one to deliver
dinner.”
Sebastian was right. No matter how busy Odell was, he still had to eat.

She agreed.
Sebastian immediately informed the kitchen to prepare two sets of dinner, packed them up and gave them to
Sylvia.
Sylvia took the food and went to Carter Tower by car.
It was the weekend, so there were only a few cars outside the building. Since it was already night, the surroundings
were quiet.
Just as she was about to enter with the food, she saw a group of people coming out of the building.
They seemed to have just come out of a meeting and were walking in groups of twos and threes as they discussed
something
With her low ponytail hairstyle and tight dress, Lily stood out from the rest. She led the group out of the building;
none of the men daring to overtake her.
Even her assistant followed her from behind as he updated her about something.
Coincidentally, Sylvia ran into her.
Lily stopped and smiled. “Ms. Ross, are you here to deliver dinner to Master Carter?”
The men behind her immediately stopped and gave Sylvia a scrutinizing look.
Sylvia was unable to fake a smile as well as Lily, so she simply hummed in reply
Keeping the smile on her face, Lily said, “Master Carter just ate with us in the meeting room. I doubt that he’ll be
able to eat
anymore. I don’t think you’ll need to deliver any dinner to him.”
Sylvia furrowed her brows.
Lily then walked past her without pause.
Her assistant and the other men followed her away. Several of them glanced at Sylvia before they left.
Sylvia heard them talking about her.
“What era is this? There are delivery services everywhere , yet she’s here to deliver dinner herself?”
“Who is she? Master Carter’s girlfriend?”
“I believe that’s Master Carter’s ex-wife. I heard that they just got back together again.”
“No way! Ms. Springsteen is ten times better than her. Why would Master Carter pick someone like her over Ms.
Springsteen?”
“Was it just because of her looks?”

The gossipy chatter faded as the group of people disappeared from Sylvia’s sight.
Sylvia was left standing stiffly in the same spot, unsure whether to go in or leave.
After a while, just as she was about to turn around, Cliff called out to her.
“Madam?”
Cliff strode to her with a smile. “Are you here to deliver dinner to Master Carter?”
Sylvia adjusted her emotions and smiled. “I heard he already had his dinner, so I don’t want to bother him.”
“Who said he already had dinner?”
“I ran into Ms. Springsteen earlier.”
Cliff’s expression changed. “Ms. Springsteen brought her people over to discuss work-related matters. Master
Carter barely even spoke to her. Even if they had to, it was all about work.”
He was trying to explain that there was nothing between Lily and Odell.
Sylvia smiled. “It’s not that. I was just thinking that since he already ate, I wouldn’t need to deliver dinner to him
anymore.”
