Chapter 516
Odell effortlessly took her into his arms.
The corners of Sylvia’s mouth twitched before she got out of the car together with Liam.
Taking Liam by the hand, she followed Odell and Isabel as they entered the gate of the kindergarten
together.
As usual, this was the time of the day when all the parents brought their children to the kindergarten
There was also a crowd of parents and children who were headed toward the entrance.
Odell stood out amongst the crowd by virtue of his model-like appearance. Many mothers who were
present caught themselves stealing glances at the handsome man. Even the kindergarten teachers
were fawning amongst themselves,
Sylvia paid no attention to the noise around her. She was silently walking with Liam when she heard
Isabel exclaim at the top of her voice, “Candice, good morning!”
Isabel was waving at a girl about her age with braided hair.
The girl in question was with her father.
Hearing Isabel’s greeting, she turned in her direction and immediately caught sight of Odell carrying
Isabel. She froze almost instantly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIsabel put an arm around Odell’s neck and declared with pride, “Candice, this is my daddy. Do you
believe me when I say that your dad is nowhere near as handsome as my dad now?” Candice grunted
grumpily and turned away. Isabel raised her eyebrows and scoffed condescendingly.
Odell: “…”
Sylvia: “”
It would appear that the reason Isabel was so enthusiastic about Odell showing up was because she
wanted to prove a point to her classmate.
The atmosphere became rather awkward for a few seconds.
Candice’s father smiled awkwardly at Odell before he led his child through the gate.
Sylvia and Odell sent Isabel and Liam to the gate as well.
Odell gently placed Isabel on the ground.
Immediately after her feet had touched the ground, she ran to Sylvia.
Sylvia bent over and hugged both her and Liam together, before bidding farewell to them,” Alright, it’s
time for school.”
“Okay, goodbye Mommy!” Perhaps as a gesture to thank Odell for boosting her image, she turned to
Odell, “Bye-bye, Baddie.”
Odell grinned at her in response,
Isabel and Liam entered hand in hand.
After watching them enter the classroom, Sylvia turned and left.
Odell immediately trailed after her.
He asked, “Where are you going?”
Sylvia replied harshly, “It’s none of your business.”
He scoffed at this show of hostility and offered, “I have time. I’ll take you to wherever you need to go.”
“No, I’ll just take a taxi by myself.”
“This place is packed with cars already, the taxi is going to have a hard time squeezing in
here,”
Sylvia glanced at the traffic condition.
It was the morning rush, with people commuting to work. Also, it did not help that there was a
kindergarten, an elementary school, and a middle school all in close vicinity.
The traffic condition of the main road was at a complete standstill. The traffic leading out of the
kindergarten was at least moderate, but the traffic coming in was horrid. She turned back and looked at
Odell.
He was looking back at her with a gentle look on his face.
Sylvia was feeling a little annoyed and said, “Odell, you don’t need to worry about what I’m up to. Just
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmworry about yourself.”
She had already made up her mind about the divorce. She longer wanted to have any other dealings
with him if it had nothing to do with their children.
With that, she headed to the sidewalk and began walking down the lane.
She walked as quickly as she could and vanished in the blink of an eye.
Odell frowned and remained rooted to the same spot.
It was a twenty minute walk to Sylvia’s new place which she had recently bought. The house still
needed some thorough cleaning before they could move in, so she had hired someone from a cleaning
company to do it for her. Shortly after she arrived, a van full of cleaners arrived. They were very
professional and efficient with their work as well.
There was no necessity for her to intervene in any way and it only took less than half the day before the
house was spick-and-span.
All that was left to do was to see to some of the household essentials
Later that same afternoon, she arrived at the kindergarten before the kids were done with their classes
that day.
She stood in the waiting area with the other parents who had also come to pick up their children.
Soon, the conversation between some of the mothers who were waiting for their children reached her
ears.
“God, he’s so handsome.” “I saw him this morning, I’m not sure which child he is the father of though.”
