Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife
Chapter 111
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
