Chapter 260

Odell glanced at Cliff coldly. “What do you want me to do? She’s just my ex-wife. Does it matter to me

who confesses to her? Do I look like I have nothing better to do?”

His rapid questions instantly made Cliff shiver. However, he could not help but scowl in his heart, ‘If you

have something better to do, then why did you tell me to keep an eye on Edmund?

‘Besides Edmund, when Sylvia was bullied by Michael and the Rosses because of Tristan, you also told

me to keep an eye on Michael and the others.

‘To be precise, ever since Sylvia brought Isabel back, you keep telling me to investigate this and that.’

Cliff got more depressed the more he thought about it. He had really put up with it for a long time.

Odell was his boss, but he had never been cruel to Cliff. Consequently, Cliff did not want to see him

deceive himself anymore. He finally could not hold back and said, “Master Carter, you actually like Ms.

Ross.” Odell’s eyes instantly shot to him. Cliff took two steps back and continued, “Just admit it. Ever

since Ms. Ross came back, although she often makes you unhappy, you’ve been much more attentive to

her than to Ms. Avery. Moreover, Ms. Ross is quite exceptional now. It was Mr. Ledger before, and this

time, it’s Mr. Price. If you don’t hurry up, a man more excellent than you might show up and marry Ms.

Ross.” He finished saying all that in one breath and looked at Odell. Then, he saw Odell’s extremely

sullen face. Odell asked, “Cliff, is your tongue itching?” Cliff quickly bowed his head. “I was wrong,

Master Carter.” “Get out.”

Cliff then rushed out.

The large office was engulfed in frozen silence. Odell sat where he was, frowning deeply. It was like he

was caught in some tangled vortex, unable to break free even after a long time.

The next day, Sylvia received the restaurant address from Edmund early in the morning.

It was a yacht restaurant on Cloudy Heart Lake. It was her first time hearing about that restaurant. From

the pictures he sent, it was not hard to tell that the restaurant was very luxurious. It was probably not

cheap, but she should be able to afford it.

Sylvia steeled her nerves and agreed. It was almost noon.

Just as she was about to go out, two small figures ran in from outside. “Mommy, Liam and I are here!”

Isabel and Liam ran in excitedly. Sylvia was instantly stunned. ‘I thought that Odell didn’t let them out

during the day.’ She asked curiously, “Isabel and Liam, why are you here?”

Isabel giggled and said, “The back door was open today, so Liam and I slipped out and came here.”

Liam smiled as well.

Sylvia laughed helplessly. Then, she led them into the house,

She called Edmund.

The call was answered in seconds

“Lil Syl, are you coming over now?” Edmund asked with a smile

Sylvia said apologetically, “Edmund, I don’t think I can treat you to lunch today. Isabel and Liam came to

see me, so I have to accompany them

“You can bring them along too. I miss Isabel as well

“It’s not convenient to bring them ” Sylvia could not say that it was Odell who would not let them see

Edmund. She said, “How about tonight? I’ll treat you to dinner instead.”

Edmund said easily, “Sure. Whatever works for you.”

He quickly hung up

Sylvia put away her phone and went to Isabel and Liam She asked them, “What do you two want to do

today?”

Liam replied, “I want to paint, Mommy.”

“Sure.”

Sylvia took them to her studio.

On the large terrace outside Odell’s bedroom, his elegant figure sat lazily on a leather sofa, holding a

pair of binoculars in one hand and bringing it in front of his eyes.
