Chapter 1321
Madam Carter angrily blurted out, “It’s been days! When is Odell coming back?”
Sylvia smiled and tried to calm her down. “Grandmother, he’s probably busy. Why don’t you get some rest first? I’ll
call him later.”
Madam Carter sighed. “I’m angry because he doesn’t
know the importance of coming back home to you and the kids.”
Sylvia maintained her smile. “I understand, but don’t worry about it.”
After calming Madam Carter down, Sylvia wheeled her back into the room to rest.
Isabel and Liam were obedient and smart enough to bring Flint upstairs before their mother even told them to.

With a frown, she then said to Aunt Tonya, “Aunt Tonya, I‘m going out and might come home late.”
“Go ahead. I‘ll take care of the kids.”
Sylvia went to the kitchen to pack some food before going out.
Half an hour later, Sylvia arrived at Carter Tower.
Most of the employees had gone home at this hour, and only several offices remained lit.
Sylvia looked up at the highest floor–it was still lit. She entered with the container of food she brought for him.
Meanwhile, Odell had just finished a transnational conference and was going through the meeting minutes from the
client.

Knocks came from the door.
“Come in,” he said.
Shermaine entered. “Sir, Elysian House just delivered the meal you ordered.”
She came in holding an exquisite food container.
However, Odell‘s eyes were glued to his computer.” Hmm. Put it down.”
She put the container on the tea table. When she noticed he was still looking at his computer, she said, “Sir, you
haven‘t eaten anything since lunch. It‘s getting late. Why don‘t you eat first and continue later?”
Odell glanced at her. “I‘ll eat later. You may leave now.”
Shermaine pursed her lips and walked out.
Odell continued reading the documents and used the next few seconds to finish all the necessary work. Finally, he

Shermaine turned around after she left the office and saw Odell eating. Her eyes sparkled and her lips
unconsciously curled as she returned to her workstation. She then tied her hair into a bun, pulled several locks of
hair from her bangs to let them drape around her face, and then went to get a thermal flask for some warm
water.
After that, she went into Odell’s office again.
When she walked into the office, the elevator from the lobby finally reached the highest floor.
Shermaine smiled as the man slowly and elegantly ate his dinner. She went over to his side with a bright smile.
“Sir, have some water.”
Odell was slightly thirsty, so he reached out for the thermal flask.
Shermaine’s eyes twinkled. When he wanted to reach out to the thermal flask, she quickly put it on the table. His
hand knocked into the flask, and the water spilled all over his pants.
