Chapter 893
After dinner, Sylvia carried Flint as she accompanied the older kids to their room to play with them as usual.
Isabel was super excited and flaunted her skills in playing games in front of her little brother.
Liam sat beside Sylvia to read his book.
Later that night, Isabel became tired and fell asleep, and so did
Flint.
Liam was still reading his book.
“Liam, it’s time for bed,” Sylvia said.
Liam obediently put the book down and glanced at the window. He asked, “Mommy, is Daddy working late tonight
again?”
Sylvia looked disheartened. “Maybe.”
She stroked his head and said, “You should go to bed.”
The boy climbed into bed.
Then, Sylvia carried Flint back to her room.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe servants had already tidied up the room much earlier. It was quiet, with no one inside.
Sylvia laid down on the bed as she carried Flint in her arms.
She waited until midnight yet the man still did not come home and she dozed off while waiting.
Chapter 893
2/4
At the same time in Carter Tower, an important meeting had just ended.
All the attendees left the meeting exhausted.
Odell went through the documents and stayed until everyone went out.
Lily, who had attended the meeting, was standing just outside the meeting room.
When she saw that he was coming out, she went up to him with a smile. She noticed he was still reading the
documents.” Master Carter, it’s late. Aren’t you going home?”
Odell ignored her and continued reading the document.
Lily’s gaze shifted. “If you don’t go home, Ms. Ross might worry about you.”
Odell’s gaze turned frosty. “Is there anything else that you want to discuss?”
His implication was obvious, he wanted Lily to leave.
Lily froze for a moment. Then, she regained her composure and said, “I just wanted to ask you something about
the project.”
“We can talk tomorrow. I’m busy now.”
He went straight to the elevator, leaving Lily frozen to the spot.
However, when she noticed that the elevator went up instead of down, her sour look was replaced with a smile.
It seemed like Odell planned to stay in the office tonight.
She left Carter Tower after a while.
Almost all the employees had left, and there were almost no cars on the road.
Her ride arrived at the entrance shortly after she came down.
She opened the door and saw the man who was wearing a cap waiting inside for her.
Her gaze shifted slightly as she went in.
“Drive.”
The driver drove immediately.
The man beside her asked, “Did she come to visit my brother today?”
Lily knew Thomas was referring to Sylvia. “I was here the whole day but I didn’t see her.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThomas grinned.
Lily’s lips curved into a smile. “I think your kiss worked. Odell hasn’t gone home for two days now. I think he must be
fed up with that woman already.”
Thomas remained quiet.
Lily looked at him. “What should we do next?”
“Strike while the iron is hot.”
Lily was confused by his words. “What do you mean?”
“You should continue to keep an eye on him. Then, when she comes over, I will tell you what to do.”
In the dim light, most of his face was covered by the brim of his hat and only his fair, sharp chin and lips could be
seen.
Lily had no idea what he had in mind. Out of concern, she asked, “Thomas, are you sure you can separate them
this time?”
“Mhmm…”
