Chapter 291: Chapter 291

Chapter 291 Given his temper, wouldn‘t he have questioned her over why she had ignored him? Why was he wearing such a warm but strange smile on his face?

Regardless, it was better than his usual frosty glare.

Sylvia hummed in reply. Odell then went to the back of the car and opened the trunk. Next, Sylvia watched him pull out a bouquet of roses. There were probably 99 stalks of roses there.

Then, he carried the roses and handed them to her.

Sylvia was stunned for a few seconds before she asked in disbelief, “Are these for me?” Seeing that she was confused and not at all surprised, Odell was a little upset and asked, “Is there any other woman here other than you?”

Sylvia let out an awkward chuckle. Odell frowned and said, “Take it.” Sylvia whispered, “Uhmm... No, tha —” Before she could utter the word ‘thanks‘, she noticed the dark look on his face. “Take it... now,” he said coldly. Sylvia‘s eyes shifted a bit and she nervously reached out to hold the bouquet of roses. Odell grunted softly and said, “Wait here. I‘ll go in with you.” “It‘s ok » Before she could finish, he shot his frosty glare at her.

Sylvia was forced to swallow her words.

He got into his car, parked it nicely and came back to her.

He said to her, “Come over here.”

Sylvia went over to him while holding the bouquet of flowers.

Then, he put his arm around her shoulder which completely shocked her.

Sylvia quickly moved aside and slipped away like an eel.

Odell frowned at her reaction.

Sylvia explained with an awkward smile, “Odell, thank you for the flowers, but it‘s inappropriate for us to have any body contact.”

Odell pursed his lips and dropped his arms to his side.

He strode forward and headed towards the house. However, after a few steps, he noticed that the place by his side was empty. He turned around and saw Sylvia standing there like a log.

With a frosty look on his face, he said, “Keep up.‘ Still smiling awkwardly, Sylvia said, “You go in first. I‘ll follow soon after.” Odell frowned and he looked even more gloomy.

He simply stared at Sylvia in silence.

Sylvia pursed her lips as she was forced to follow him to the entrance.

Just as they were about to enter the living room, Sylvia‘s eyes shifted slightly and she bent over to put the bouquet of roses aside. “What are you doing?” The man‘s sorrowful voice sounded. Sylvia felt chills run up her spine when his voice entered her ears. She quickly straightened her body with the bouquet of roses. “Uh, nothing. I thought my shoelaces were loose, so I bent over to take a look.” Odell grunted.

“Hold the roses and follow me.” with no other choice left, Sylvia was forced to go into the living room with him while holding the bouquet of roses. As expected, the lively atmosphere in the living room plunged into silence the moment they entered. Madam Carter and the butler stopped talking while Isabel and Liam stared at them in confusion.
