Could Tara have already informed her?
Suddenly, the phone in her pocket began ringing.
It was Aunt Tonya calling Sylvia picked up the call, âHey Aunt Tonya, whatâs wrong?
âSylvia, there are several men outside the house, theyâre hulks around the size of Ben and Jacob, and theyâre not leaving,â Aunt Tonya reported in a bushed voice masked with concern.â Did something happen again? Whalâs wrong?â Sylvia frowned Odell was quick to act.
âDonât worry. Just lock the doors and leave the house,â she said.
It was also at this time when there was a sudden movement outside the studio.
Through the glass window, Sylvia saw a group of well-trained bodyguards surrounding the entrance of the studio.
She hurriedly hung up the phone. There was no back door in the studio, so she could not run and had to directly confront them The bodyguard leading the charge spoke to the studio receptionist, âMr. Odell has dispatched us to pick Miss Sylvia upâ
The name âMr. Odellâ intimidated the receptionist.
Sylvia suddenly appeared and said to the receptionist, âCarl, Iâm stepping out for a bit.â The receptionist, Carl, looked at the crew of bodyguards with a leery gaze, âAlright, see you.â Sylvia then walked out while the bodyguards followed her closely After they left, Carl quickly called Tristan.
Tristan had maintained some contact with him. Only a few days after Sylvia began working here, âTristan contacted him and tasked him with taking care of Sylvia With Sylviaâs sudden kidnapping, Carl immediately sprang to action and informed Tristan As soon as Tristan picked up, he relayed, âTristan, Sylvia was just taken away by a crew of men. Theyâre from a security force, and the leader said it was Odell who sent them.â
Sylvia was taken to âTaraâs residence at Lake Victoria Villa Even after four years, the villa retained its extravagant and magnificent state. All of the fumishings in sight were priced in the millions.
Sylvia only swept a glance across the decor before she was taken to the living room where Ovell was sitting on the sola Tara sat beside him with a band of gauze seen tied around one of her wrists Odell regarded Sylvia with anger when she entered Meanwtuile, Tara look Odellâs arın in hers as if Sylvia would be made jealous by this action.
Sylvia grabbed achair and sat with her arms folded across her chest. She began, âOdell, if you have something to say, youâd better hurry up. I have to go back to work.â When Odell saw how she was not only unintimidated but even arrogantly pulled a chair out for herself to sit, he immediately frowned and shouted, âGet up!â
âFine.â
Knowing that she was outnumbered, Sylvia decided against provoking him. She stood up obediently Odell was appeased by this. He said, âApologize to Tara.â Sylvia twitched her lips and looked at Tara who was still clinging to him with an affectionate gaze This scene was nearly an identical copy of the scene from three years ago when she was slapped sixty times Now that her adversary was here, Tara put on a show of magnanimity, âSylvia, seeing that we were once friends, Iâll let you leave after you apologize to me. I wonât make things difficult for you.â
What a nice, kind gesture Sylvia scoffed, âIf you claim that you wonât make things difficult for me, why did you even let Odell go through all the trouble, to begin with?â
Tara stiffened.
Odell cast a repulsed look at Sylvia and said, âIt was I who wanted to get you. She didnât persuade me in any way.â âThen, why didnât she try to get you to stop?â Odellâs lips jerked, and Taraâs face took on a shade of pale. Sylvia went on, âOr maybe she did, but you never listened? Or more like, you never had the intention of listening to her, to begin with? Thatâs not right. How long have you two been together?
Why does Tara still have no say in this relationship? What a shame. I thought you two had something good going on but-â Odell became irritated and cut her off with a sharp roar, âShut your mouth!â
