Chapter 520
“Sure.” Isabel pouted and answered in a slightly offended tone, “Of course I know to not go into the
water, I’m not stupid.”
After that, she sat down by the creek with Liam. Picking up a net, they threw it into the water, hoping to
catch something with it.
Meanwhile, Odell pitched the lent for them. Seeing that the children were being very well-behaved,
Sylvia decided to help Odell with the setup.
The tent was ready in no time,
Sylvia threw the blanket and pillows that she brought into the tent
Then, she sat under the tent and watched over Isabel and Liam. Liam was sitting quietly, without
moving a muscle Beside him, Isabel was ceaselessly throwing the net into the creek before pulling it

It was around this time that the sun began to rise from behind the hill opposite them.
Beholding the majestic scene, Sylvia felt as if she was looking at an oil painting.
As the sun rose, the rays of sunlight splashed across the sky, painting a gradient of scarlet red and
yellow over the sky above. The sunlight reflected on the surface of the creek and shone over the
children.
It seemed to inject a spirit of vigor and brand new hope for the days to come. Sylvia suddenly had the
urge to paint and capture the moment, Remembering how Odell had smashed her drawing board
before, the look in her eyes darkened and she quickly suppressed the urge to paint Suddenly, Odell’s
voice came from behind her, “There’s still a lot to check out in the area, why don’t you go take a look?”
“I don’t want to go.” Sylvia answered indifferently. “The view here is pretty good. If you’re not going to
play with them, maybe try drawing something instead.” With that, he placed a canvas and a set of
painting tools in front of her. Sylvia was caught unawares by this and looked at him with a surprised
look on her face,
There was a very subtle smile on his face as he met her gaze with a soft look in his eyes. Sylvia
blinked and stated, “I don’t want to draw either.” “Then what do you want to do?” “Don’t worry about
me.”
Odell pursed his lips and shrugged, “Okay.”
He turned and walked toward Isabel and Liam. The canvas and paint set were still in front of Sylvia.
She frowned.
He had made it a point to put together this set of painting materials for her
She did not want to use them, but she was having a hard time not giving into temptation.
After stewing over it for a while, she finally picked up the brush and began painting the scenery
By the time she was nearing completion, Isabel and Liam had managed to catch a bucket of fish.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOdell called the staff over, who helped them prepare the fish accordingly There was a barbecue grill
right next to the tent where the staff members helped them grill their catch.
Upon noticing that Sylvia had put down her paint brush, Isabel, who had just sat down with her father
and brother, immediately called out to her, “Mommy, come and eat some fish with
us!”
Sylvia got up and walked over.
After they were full, Sylvia took the kids for a nap in the tent, After the nap, Isabel ran outside, feeling
energetic again. As usual, she dragged Liam with her wherever she went
Sylvia was worried and made sure to follow them. She also played with them wherever they went.
There were all kinds of entertainment, such as tram tracks that crossed over the hills, or they could sail
kayaks on the creek Even after taking a lap around the area, Isabel was still feeling robust and full of
energy. She suddenly cried out to Sylvia, “Mommy, let’s play tug-of-war! The lady said that if you win,
you can get a little mermaid! I want the little mermaid!” She tugged at Sylvia while gesturing excitedly
with her hands. Sylvia followed her to a field.
There were several other families gathered at the field as well. The staff was explaining the rules of the
game of tug-of-war.
