Chapter 425: Chapter 425

Looking at Tara’s sour expression, Sylvia added, “ Tara Avery, you’ve done so many things yet Odell still refuses to divorce me. Even if you’re not upset, I’m upset for you.”

The fake smile on Tara’s face disappeared instantly. She glared venomously at Sylvia and spat, “Odell’s just thinks of you as entertainment. Once he grows bored of you, he’ll definitely divorce you and make your life a living hell! ”

“You’re right.” Sylvia laughed lightly. “But he’s unwilling to divorce me now, so he won’t be with you officially.”

“You... You b*tch!” Tara was trembling with rage.

She wanted nothing more than to beat Sylvia up, but there were bodyguards everywhere so she could only resist her violent urges.

Sylvia chuckled. “Tara, if you’re really that capable, you’d better convince Odell to divorce me soon. Otherwise,” Sylvia paused, a cold smile on her face, before continuing, “as long as I’m alive, as long as I can breathe, I’ll repay what you did to me tenfold.”

Sylvia’s tone was gentle and her voice was weak, barely above a whisper.

However, her words drained all the color from Tara’s face as the latter backed away slowly.

By the time Tara realized she was actually scared of Sylvia, she had already put quite a distance between herself and Sylvia.

Soon, Tara came back to her senses. In a fit of guilt and annoyance, she shouted, “You don’t scare me at all! Odell will definitely grow bored of you soon because you’re nothing more than a pretty b*tch.

However, you’re no match for me!”

With that said, Tara spun around and walked toward the gate.

She was quick and soon disappeared from Sylvia’s view.

Sylvia laughed dryly before continuing to carve her wood block.

Not long after Tara’s departure, Odell’s car pulled to a stop outside the gate.

Sylvia was completely focused on her carving so she did not notice the sound of his car’s engine.

Only when his tall figure stood directly in front of her, effectively blocking her light source, did she realize Odell had arrived.

Sylvia furrowed her eyebrows and continued to carve her wood block.

Odell studied the wood block in her hand before asking, “What are you carving?”

Sylvia ignored him and acted as if she had not heard him speak.

At her lack of a reply, Odell’s face grew cold. “ Have you forgotten what I told you yesterday?” He was referring to his threat of sewing Sylvia’s mouth shut if she ignored him.

Sylvia swallowed her pride and replied, “I’m making a Rubik’s cube.”

“A Rubik’s cube?” Odell was stunned for a moment. “Are you talking about the cube that Liam often plays with?”

“Yes.”

Odell looked closer at the cube Sylvia was holding before he suddenly thought back to the cube he had stepped on the day before.

He had been angry that he had not realized it, but it had definitely been a finished carving of a Rubik’s cube that had been meant as a gift to Liam.

The other carving that had resembled a crown must have also been meant for the children.

At the realization, his chest grew tight. Then, he said, “It’ll be lunch time soon, continue carving after you’ve rested a little.”

Sylvia ignored him.

Odell lowered his voice in a warning and said, “ I’m asking you to take a break. Did you not hear me?”

“I’m not hungry and I don’t want to rest,” came Sylvia’s reply.

Her tone was calm and collected.

Odell stretched out his hand, wanting to take away the things in Sylvia’s hands.

However, Sylvia’s reflexes were quick. She quickly hid the carving knife and the half-

finished carving behind her back before she stared at him watchfully.

It was as if she was afraid he would step on her carvings again.

Odell felt a knot in his throat and did his best to suppress his emotions. “Just put your things down and go have lunch.”

“I’m not hungry.”

“You’ll eat even if you’re not hungry!” Odell suddenly shouted.

Sylvia frowned before putting her carving knife and the half-finished carving into a small bag that was hanging off the side of the wheelchair.
