Chapter 502
Later that night, Sylvia had dinner with the kids and then played with them again.
After the two of them went to bed, Sylvia grabbed her jacket and left the room.
When she walked past the living room, Odell was drinking tea on the couch.
She had a glance at him and continued toward the door. “It’s late. Where are you going?” he asked.
Sylvia ignored him and continued toward the door.
Sherry’s car was already waiting outside the house and Sylvia spotted her as soon as she came out.
“Syl, hurry up!”
Sylvia smiled and got into the car.

Shortly after the car turned into the junction, another black sports car drove out of the house and
followed them.
Sherry was a great driver. Half an hour later, they arrived at a famous barbeque restaurant.
Sylvia followed Sherry to a room on the second floor. When she walked in, she saw Edmund slouching
on his seat, smiling at her. “Syl, it’s been a long time. Did you miss me?” He was still as frivolous as
before, which was a relief to Sylvia.
She wore an apologetic expression and said, “Edmund, I’m so sorry to drag you into all of this.”
While she was imprisoned by Odell, Edmund was detained by the police. It had been six months since
he was wrongfully arrested and he just got out recently. A lot could happen in six months and yet he
spent them in the detention center because he was wrongfully accused. Edmund waved frivolously and
said, “It’s okay. It’s all in the past now. If you want to apologize, sit and have a drink with me.” Sylvia
smiled and sat down with Sherry. Lloyd and Harry were also there. They held this dinner to celebrate
Edmund’s release.
Neither of them talked about the bitter past. They all switched the topic to something more delightful
Lloyd bitterly said, “Boss, you have no idea how hard it has been for me and Harry while you’re away.
Now that you’re back, we can finally live our old lives back.” Smack!
Harry smacked Lloy on the back of his head. “You didn’t lose anything, not a piece of meat or a strand
of hair. You got a lot latter while Boss is gone. Look at your double chin, it’s almost at your chest! How

Sylvia and Sherry laughed at their bickering. Edmund had a subtle glance at Sylvia and her laughter
put a smile on his face, The room’s atmosphere was lively. Down at the parking lot, diagonally opposite
the room’s ceiling-to-floor window, a black sports car was parked quietly.
The window was half wound down.
The man inside the car was smoking as he stared at the people in the room.
He was able to see everyone clearly from lus angle.
Sylvia sat with Sherry and Edmund was with his lackeys.
Sylvia had a bright mood and the smile on Jier face never once faded.
The man also noticed Edmund glued his eyes to Sylvia, which irritated him.
A cloud of smoke was spewed from his mouth. He was at the end of his cigarette after a few pusss. ile
tossed the cigarette butt away and lit another one as he continued to watch the room with deep gaze.
An hour later, Lloyd was completely drunk and Harry was tipsy. The two of them clung to Edmund and
were kicked away mercilessly.
