NovelEnglishChapter 598
After the gunshot, the entire Cloudy Heart Lake fell silent for a moment.
Then, there was a “thud”.
Spencer, who was dragging Sylvia, fell back to the ground.
Sylvia’s legs went limp as she slumped to the ground as
well.
With wide eyes, she stared blankly at Spencer, who had
fallen to the ground with blood pooling around him.
‘I’m not dead?
‘The one who was shot was Spencer?’
Just as her mind was overwhelmed, a burst of footsteps sounded from the grass not far behind her.
Sylvia turned to look.
She saw a group of uniformed police officers, and Thomas running at the front.

over.
He reached out to pick her up.
Sylvia placed her hand on Thomas’ outstretched one. Thomas pulled her up and wrapped her in his
arms.
He hugged her and whispered, “Don’t be scared. It’s over. I’ll take you home now.”
If it was before the kidnapping, Sylvia might have pushed him away
However, at that moment, fear, cold, despair, and all kinds of feelings intertwined in her body.
She was cold. Even her organs felt cold.
His embrace was very warm, so warm that she did not want to push him away at all.
She buried her face into his chest and choked out a sob.” Thank you for saving me, Thomas.”
Thomas said with a faint smile, “No need to thank me. I’m used to saving you.”
He obviously wanted to tease her with those words.
Sylvia’s lips could not help but twitch.
‘Yes, he saved me again. When I was about to die, he saved me once again.’
Thomas smiled when he heard her laugh.
Then, he said to the police officer next to him, “Officer Sach, i’ll leave this place to you. She’s not in
good shape,
so I’ll send her home first.”
The police officer in charge said, “All right. You guys go back quickly.”
Thomas held her and walked toward the road.
However, after a few steps, they were blocked by a tall figure.
Odell stared at Sylvia, who was being held by Thomas, and said in a low voice, “Give her to me.”
Thomas locked eyes with him and looked down to ask Sylvia, “Do you want to go with him?”
“No,” Sylvia said bluntly. Her voice was very cold. Odell frowned and reached out to her. “Come back
with
me.”
Thomas immediately pulled Sylvia several steps away.” Odell, you’re a grown man. It’s not appropriate
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmto force a woman, right?”
Odell looked at him coldly.
Thomas continued, “Or did you forget the choice you made just now?”
Odell looked at Sylvia and said with a frown, “I chose her because-”
“Because she saved your life before, because she was the light of your youth, right?” Sylvia looked up
at him and
could not help but sneer. “Then what are you still here for? You should go to her now instead!” “Sylvia,
1—” She was not in the mood to listen to him. As soon as she saw him or heard his voice, she could
not help but remember the scene of how he chose Tara.
‘I can’t believe I thought that he’d choose me.
‘I really flattered myself. I’m so ridiculous!
‘This man doesn’t love me at all!
‘All the promises he made, and all the words of love he said to me recently are lies. They’re all fake!’
Thus, without waiting for him to finish his sentence, she hissed, “I don’t want to see you again. Not now,
not ever!
Odell’s gaze changed, and his tall figure froze. “Let’s go, Thomas,” Sylvia turned away and said to
Thomas.
Thomas immediately held her and walked toward the road.
