NovelEnglishChapter 600
When Sylvia opened her eyes, the fine sunlight was shining through the gaps between the curtains and
into the room.
It was clear that a night had passed.
Her mind was still a little dazed, and she sat up weakly with her hand propped up on the bed.
Then, she saw the unfamiliar surroundings.
The gray-toned bed should be Thomas’. She was also wearing a set of men’s pajamas, which should
also be his.
She frowned and looked inside the pajamas.
At that moment, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open.
Sylvia was startled and looked up.
Thomas came in with food. Seeing the embarrassment on his face, he said, “I changed your clothes for
you while blindfolded.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe laughed dryly. “Thanks.”
“You’re welcome.” He walked to the bedside , placed the food on the small tabletop , and said, “You
were sick the entire night last night and need to replenish your energy. Eat some food.”
The oatmeal exuded a fresh fragrance, and the side dishes looked refreshing.
Sylvia did not rush to eat. She remembered his sudden appearance with the police last night and
asked, “By the way, how did you suddenly bring the police there last night?”
Thomas replied, “I saw you being threatened by that kidnapper in the parking lot last night so I secretly
followed you to Cloudy Heart Lake and then called the police.”
Sylvia’s eyes flickered. “I see.”
She did not want to think about what happened last night and picked up a small spoon to eat.
Her stomach was hungry, so she ate quickly.
It was also when she was halfway through eating that she noticed that Thomas was standing next to
her, watching her. It did not seem like he had any intention to leave.
She could not help but say, “Thomas, you can go do your stuff. Don’t mind me.”
He looked at her and said, “I’m not busy today.”
His gaze was very different from his usual cool demeanor and was filled with tenderness and passion
instead. Sylvia did not dare to look directly at him.
She lowered her head and said with some discomfort,”
Then you should go eat breakfast.”
“I’ve just eaten.”
She choked.
The next second, there was a weight on her head.
His head rested on the top of her head, petting it a few times before withdrawing. He said to her, “The
food will get cold if you don’t eat.”
Sylvia hummed.
Then, she lowered her head and quickly ate all the food on the small table.
Thomas took out the empty plates and bowls, not giving her time to react.
After he went out, the room returned to silence.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHer body felt much stronger, and her mind was more refreshed after eating.
When she remembered that she stayed out all night, she looked around and finally saw her cell phone
by the pillow.
For some reason, the phone was turned off.
Did it automatically shut down because of the rain last night?
She did not think much about it and turned on the phone.
Then, she saw dozens of missed calls and messages. There were a few from Aunt Tonya and Isabel,
but the rest were from Odell.
The scene from last night immediately surfaced in her mind.
Sylvia’s chest seized hard. Then, she blocked his number and called Aunt Tonya.
The call was quickly answered, and Aunt Tonya asked,” Syl, where did you go last night? Why didn’t
you answer the phone?”
Sylvia calmed down and replied, “Something happened. I’m at a friend’s place now. I’ll be back later.”
“What happened? Are you all right?”
“Yeah, I’m fine now.” “That’s good.” Aunt Tonya sighed in relief.
