Chapter 585
Without thinking too much about it, Sylvia picked up her fork to take some food for Isabel and Liam.
After dinner, she tucked the little ones into bed. They were tired out from playing during the day and fell
asleep before Sylvia could even begin to tell them a bedtime story.
She kissed their tender little faces, got up, and went back to her room.
After washing up, she went to the window and looked outside.
She could look into the yard from here.
There were several parking spaces in the yard, but Odell’s car was not there. He was obviously still
away
After standing for a while, she turned around and went to bed.
However, she tossed and turned for a long time and did not manage to fall asleep until the later part of
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe night. Then, she woke up before dawn.
She got up and went to the window to take a look at the yard.
The parking spaces were now full, including Odell’s car. He had probably come back after handling his
affairs. Sylvia sighed in relief, went back to bed, and slept comfortably.
Two hours later.
She was awakened by the sound of Isabel talking.
The little girl lay beside her as she muttered to herself. “Today is such a strange day. Why are both
Mommy and the baddie sleeping in?”
Sylvia opened her eyes.
“Mommy, you’re awake!” The little girl’s eyes lit up as she immediately burrowed into Sylvia’s arms.
Sitting up, Sylvia hugged her as she asked in confusion, “Is your dad still asleep?”
“Yeah, I checked up on him several times, but he’s still asleep.”
Sylvia frowned.
That man did not usually have the habit of sleeping in. Even when he was busy, he would only sleep for
a few hours a day at most. Since she had only seen his car in the yard early that morning, that probably
meant that he had only returned not too long ago.
After thinking about it, she stroked Isabel’s little head and asked, “What would you like to eat for
breakfast?”
Isabel raised her little face and said, “I wanna eat the pancakes and bacon that Mommy makes.
“Okay. Go outside and play with your brother. Mommy will make breakfast for you.” “Okay!”
The little girl obediently climbed out of bed and ran out.
Sylvia also quickly got up and washed up. The little girl loved to eat pancakes and bacon. Thus, she
planned to make pancakes with various flavors as well as some oatmeal.
Meanwhile, Isabel ran to the living room.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing that her brother was reading a boring book on the sofa, she ran up to him and tugged one of his
hands. “Liam, let’s go and play with the baddie.”
Looking at her eager expression, Liam put down his book and said calmly, “Dad is still sleeping. Let’s
not disturb him.”
Isabel pouted. “But the sun is already up.”
Liam pulled her over to his side and explained patiently, “It looks like he only just came home not too
long ago.” She was even more confused. “Why did he come back so late?” “He went out to work last
night, so he probably didn’t sleep all night.” A long time ago, before he had been reunited with Sylvia
and Isabel, Liam had already gotten used to Odell often being away from home and occasionally
sleeping at home during the day.
Isabel pouted. “Okay.”
She thought, ‘He must be tired if he didn’t sleep all night.’
After a few seconds of silence, she jumped off the sofa again,
She said to Liam, “I’ll go take another look. I won’t wake him up.”
Liam smiled at her. “Sure.”
