Sylvia did not hold it in and let out a cold chuckle.
The next second, Odell looked daggers at her.
Sylvia pursed her lips. Odell then walked to Tara and helped her up from the ground. Tara conveniently leaned into his arms and did not let go. Odell had helped her up, but Tara was still clinging to him. She wailed, âOdell, I donât want to leave you. I cannot live without youâ¦â
She wailed her throat dry.. Odell patted her back. Seeing that she was still crying miserably, he glanced at Sylvia and said, âGo home first. Iâll come to you after sending Tara back.â
Sylvia looked at them cuddling and tugged her lips. She replied indifferently, âGo with her. You donât need to find me.â After that, she turned and walked to the road.
Odell frowned and wanted to chase after her, but Tara held his waist tightly.
âOdell⦠Donât go. I beg you, donât goâ¦â she cried hoarsely. Odell closed his eyes and suppressed the annoyance rising in his heart. He said, âI wonât go. Iâll send you home first.â
Sylvia went back to her place. Upon seeing her, Aunt Tonya quickly walked to her and asked, âSyl, I heard from Tom that Odell brought you out. What are you guys doing at this time? He didnât bully you, did he?â Sylvia quickly replied, âNo, he didnât bully me.â âThatâs good.â Aunt Tonya heaved a sigh of relief and asked again, âThen where did you go?â Sylvia did not mean to hide it from her and answered, âWe went to get registered in the City Hall.â
âWhat?â Aunt Tonyaâs eyes widened. âAll of a sudden? Isnât he dating Tara?â Sylvia kept quiet because she also regretted it now. She regretted recklessly marrying Odell again to pay Tara back.
However, it was no big deal. At worst, Sylvia could divorce him the next day.
Anyway, it was not the first time she was divorced. It did not matter to her now.
Upon seeing that she did not speak, Aunt Tonya asked anxiously, âSyl, whatâs going on? Tell me now.
Donât make the same mistake again!â Although Aunt Tonya could see that Odellâs attitude toward Sylvia had changed, and she could also notice Odellâs feelings for Sylvia, Tara was not someone to be trifled with. She was afraid Sylvia would be hurt and harmed again. Sylvia hurriedly said, âAunt Tonya, relax. I donât plan to let history repeat itself.â She would never obsess over Odell in the same way before. She only married him out of impulse.
Let alone Tara, Sylvia would promise to divorce him at any time if he fell in love with another woman.
âSigh, as long as you know what youâre doing.â Aunt Tonya sighed and nagged, âThere are some benefits to being remarried. You can be with Liam and Isabel anytime now, and you donât need to worry about their new stepmother abusing them.â 1 Sylvia smiled. âYeah.â
She would do this for the children. Thinking of Liam and Isabel, she suddenly did not feel so regretful.
Sylvia walked into the living room with Aunt Tonya and was about to sit down when the phone in her pocket rang It was Edmund. Sylvia recalled that Odell had hung up Edmundâs call when he dialed earlier, so she answered his call. She said apologetically, âEdmund, I had some business to deal with just now.
Do you need anything?â Edmundâs rich voice sounded on the phone, âNothing much. I just miss you after not seeing you for so long.â âOh.â Sylvia thought he had something important. âAre you at home now?â
Edmund suddenly asked.
