Chapter 590
Sylvia wanted to refuse, but before she could, Isabel had already pulled open the car door and climbed
in.
Thus, she had no choice but to take Liam and sit inside as well.
The little girl sat in Odell’s arms.
Sylvia also took Liam into her arms as she sat beside Odell.
Odell said, “Drive to the preschool first.”
The driver responded and started the car.
In less than ten minutes, the car stopped outside the preschool.
Sylvia and Odell accompanied the children out of the car and watched them enter the school grounds
before turning around and returning to the car.
She sat at a distance from him.

Sylvia turned to get out.
Suddenly, there was an iron grip on her wrist pulling her until she was turned around and pressed
against a broad
chest.
She looked up in annoyance.
In the next second, the man’s handsome face came closer to her.
Her lips were soon covered by his. The man’s breath dominantly filled her mouth.
It was a long while before he finally let her go.
Sylvia could not help but glare at him.
He smiled. “Go to work.”
She ignored him, pushed open the door, and went out.
Odell waited until she was out of sight before saying to the driver, “Go to the company.”
“Yes.”
Meanwhile, Sylvia brisk-walked all the way to the faculty building
When she walked up to her office floor, she bumped into several familiar teachers.
They all greeted her with a smile.
Sylvia also smiled and responded to them.
Then, she heard a female teacher say to her, “Ms. Ross,
why is your face so red? Your mouth looks a little swollen too. Did your boyfriend send you to work?”
Sylvia’s face heated up for a moment before she quickly said, “Maybe it’s because of the wind
outside.”
Then, she hurriedly went into her office.
The other teachers also laughed and left. Next door to her office, a man’s slender figure leaned against
the wall by the door.
The door had been left open, so he had heard the conversation outside clearly. The cold look on his

The contents of Sylvia’s class was the same as the previous semester.
After taking the whole morning to prepare her lesson plan, she was just about to go out for lunch when
she suddenly received a message from Thomas.
This was the first time he had sent her a message since the Art Academy event a year ago.
The message was simple. He had only asked if she wanted to go out for lunch.
Sylvia thought about it and replied, “I’m not free at noon
today and I’ve already ordered some take-out. Why don’t you go out to eat with the other teachers?”
After half a minute, Thomas replied, “Okay.”
She sighed in relief.
She was already feeling hungry, but she could not go out
now.
It would be awkward if she ran into him along the way.
She sat for a few more minutes before getting up to go to Thomas’ office next door. She reached out
and pushed the door open. The inside was neat and empty. It was clear that he had already gone out.
