Chapter 1367

Chapter 1367 Sylvia commended Flint, “Good boy.”

With that, the conversation had come to an end.

Odell stared at the message Sylvia sent where she claimed she would be back in two days. He found himself grinning without

realizing it.

Finally, she was coming back.

He no longer had to sleep by himself.

However, there was the Shermaine issue...

i

He considered for a moment and went to search for Sylvia's profile in her friend list and wrote a brief message to her that read,

“Are you here? There's

something | want to talk to you about.”

As soon as he had sent the message, an error appeared on the screen that said, “Message unable to send. User only accepts

messages from added accounts.”

It would appear that he was still on her blacklist.

He heaved a long, tired sigh.

He certainly did not hold it against her. It was him that had made a mistake in misplacing his trust in Shermaine. He had gone

and ignored Sylvia's feelings and even accused her of being insensitive to Shermaine'‘s perils.

He vowed to hijnself that he would explain things clearly after Sylvia came back

The next day passed in the blink of an eye.

As soon as the sky had seen the first glimpse of dusk, Odell returned home,

He marched straight into the living room. He chanced upon the scene of Madam Carter desperately tugging Aunt Tonya‘s clothes

and mumbling incoherently, “Where‘s Odell, where is he? Tell him to come back quickly, he shouldn't stay outside by himself, it's

too dangerous out there!”

Aunt Tonya was aware that this was Madam Carter's dementia acting up again. She was just about to try to console her when

she noticed Odell approaching. She quickly gestured at Odell and exclaimed, “Look, Odell is back, look!”

Madam Carter turned to Odell with a confused look in her eyes.

Odell quickly walked up to her, “Grandmother, here | am.”

Madam Carter took his hand affectionately and seemed very anxious. “Odell, | keep telling you to not wander off. Listen to me

now, you have to stay close to me. Your

Odell added, “Sebastian, if my grandmother ever goes on a rant about my stepmother again, | want you to call me immediately.”

Sebastian responded dutifully “Understood.” Flint turned his plump cheeks to Odell and asked curiously, “Daddy, do you have a

stepmother?”

“Yes.”

The boy seemed very eager to know more, “Was she a

jerk?”

Odell grunted. “Hm.”

Flint went up to Odell, wrapped his arms around his leg, and vowed, “Daddy, when | grow up, I'll protect you.”

Odell fell silent.

Liam and Isabel were speechless.

Aunt Tonya and Sebastian were stunned by this as well. Many have heard of children vowing to protect their mothers, but this

was the first they had ever heard of

protecting a father.

Did he think his father needed protection?

“Fatso Flint, Daddy doesn't even need your protection.” Isabel cocked an eyebrow and scolded Flint, “Besides, even if he

needed protection, you wouldn't be his first choice.”

Flint sounded very concerned. “What if Daddy’s jerk stepmother comes back to hurt him?". Odell was rather dumbstruck by

Flint's sentiment. He carried Flint into his arms and said, “Your father chased her out of the country already. She won't be coming

back to hurt me.”

At the same time, he patted Isabel and Liam’s heads with his free hand in turn and told them, “Come on, let's go eat.”
