Chapter 259

The heavy feeling that Sylvia experienced for the entire day was finally relieved. She played with the

children until 9 p.m. and did not leave until they fell asleep.

Odell’s car also stopped at the gate at that time.

She saw him when she walked out of the gate. She immediately smiled and greeted him,” Good evening,

Odell.”

Odell gave her a cold look, walked past her, and went inside. He clearly did not want to talk to her.

Sylvia did not care either because she did not really want to greet him anyway.

The next two days passed similarly.

That afternoon, Sylvia was painting in the studio when she received a message from Edmund.

“Lil Syl, let’s go out for dinner tonight.”

Sylvia replied, “I can’t go out at night. I’m going to see the children.”

Edmund asked, “Didn’t you go last night?”

He had asked her out for dinner last night too, but she had refused because she wanted to see the

children.

Sylvia responded, “I have to go there every night.” Odell did not let the children come to see her during

the day anymore, so she could only go to them at night. Thus, it was impossible for her to go out and do

anything else at night, such as have dinner with him.

Edmund sent a voice message. “Lil Syl, didn’t you say you’d treat me to dinner next time? Are you going

back on your word?”

Sylvia could tell from his tone that he was teasing her. She laughed and replied, “How about tomorrow at

noon? I’ll treat you to lunch tomorrow. You can decide on the place.” Edmund said, “Perfect. It’s settled.

I’ll send you the address later. Be there or be square.”

“Sure.”

At Edmund’s house, Lloyd, Harry, and the others were looking at his face. Ned, who was in charge of

preparing the venue for Edmund’s confession of love, was also beside him.

When Edmund put down his phone, Ned asked, “Mr. Price, has the time been set?”

Edmund curled his lips and said, “Yeah, tomorrow at noon.”

Ned immediately let out a groan. “It’s no fun at noon. We can’t even use lights, so it won’t be romantic.

Can’t it be at night instead?”

Edmund gave him a side glance. “Did you not hear what I just said?” Ned hurriedly corrected himself, “Of

course, Mr. Price. I’ll arrange for it immediately.” “Do a good job. If anything goes wrong, I’ll break your

neck.” Ned smiled. “Don’t worry, I’ll make it perfect.”

Then, he went out.

Edmund glanced at Lloyd and Harry. “You two go and help him.” “Sure thing.” Lloyd and Harry quickly

went after Ned. Edmund thought about the scene of him confessing to Sylvia tomorrow and curled his

lips into a smile.

A few hours later, in the office at the top of Carter Tower, Cliff knocked on the door and went

1.

Seeing the man on the seat, he said in a soft voice, “Master Carter, there’s something going on with

Edmund.” Odell immediately asked, “What happened?” “Two hours ago, one of his men, Ned Dumble,

went to Cloudy Heart Lake and got a yacht. They have decorated the yacht very fancily. According to the

investigation, the yacht will be used tomorrow at noon as a venue for someone’s confession of love.”

Thud.

Odell dropped his pen. Cliff looked at his dark expression and continued, “Master Carter, if I’m not

mistaken, the yacht should be for Edmund. He might be confessing to Ms. Ross at noon tomorrow.”

Although Odell only told him to keep an eye on Edmund, it was not hard to figure out that he was doing it

because of Sylvia.

Furthermore, Edmund recently bought a lot of paintings from the Art Association and participated in their

activities everywhere. It was obvious that he was interested in Sylvia.

As Odell’s subordinate for many years, Cliff understood him well. Although Odell always denied it, Sylvia,

his ex-wife whom he hated, had a significant place in his heart.

The atmosphere in the office suddenly froze.

When Odell did not say anything after a long time, Cliff could not help but ask, “Master Carter, what

should we do next?”
