Chapter 138
It was not that Sylvia had not thought about Odell before, but she dropped the idea. She stated, “He
won’t help me.” Sherry knew about the grudges between Sylvia and Odell these three years. She also
hated Odell for what he had done to Sylvia because of Tara three years ago. However, right now, he was
the only person who could help her rescue Aunt Tonya.
She looked at Sylvia’s face and said, “Syl, why don’t you beg him? You’re still the mother of his children,
as well as his ex-wife. He won’t just leave you in the lurch, right?”
Beg him?
Sylvia could not help but shiver as she remembered his face when he dumped her at the hospital.
It was not that she did not want to beg him. However, even if she did, he most likely would not agree.

Tristan’s parents and clearing things up with them.” Sherry said with uncertainty, “Will they listen to
you?”
Sylvia replied, “I’ve met them many times when I was a child. They don’t seem like unreasonable people.
If I talk to them face to face, they might believe me.” After all, she really had nothing to do with Tristan,
and she did not want to marry him.
The four of them just wanted to force her to marry Michael to prevent her from being with Tristan.
This was the only solution she could think of now.
Early the next morning, Sherry accompanied Sylvia to the Ledger residence.
The butler said that Bruce and Catherine were not home since they had gone to an art exhibition. He told
Sylvia to come back again next time. Sylvia was anxious about Aunt Tonya. She did not have the
patience to wait, so she immediately asked, “Sir, do you know where the exhibition is held?”
The butler replied politely, “It seems to be over at Art Haven. However, it’s a private event. Only people
who have received invitations can go. If you’re in a hurry to meet Mr. and Mrs. Ledger, it’s better if you
wait for them to come back from the exhibition.”
Art Haven?
That was near Isabel and Liam’s preschool. Sylvia thanked him and asked Sherry to drive her to Art
Haven.
Along the way, Sherry made some phone calls and found out where the exhibition was held. The
exhibition was hosted by Mr. Collins, a famous collector in Westchester City, in one of his small estates.
However, one needed an invitation to get in, and Sherry managed to get it from one of her friends. They

got out, Sherry pushed her to the entrance.
She passed the invitation to Sylvia and said uneasily, “Syl, there’s only one invitation, so I can’t go in with
you. I’ll be right outside. Call me immediately if anything happens.” Sylvia smiled at her. “Don’t worry.
Nothing will happen to me.”
There would be other people inside. Bruce and Catherine were not barbarians. Even if they hated her,
they would not do anything to her.
After saying that, Sylvia took the invitation and went into the manor.
The exhibition venue was an open lawn in front of the manor.
Many famous paintings were arranged in an orderly manner. Some people ambled through the aisles to
admire them or were chatting with their friends who were accompanying them. Sylvia looked around, but
Bruce and Catherine did not seem to be present.
