Chapter 273
The pictures of the artwork Edmund sent over were from veteran artists who were supposedly having an
exhibition in Westchester soon.
After going through them individually, Sylvia said, âThe ones you picked are really good.â Edmund sent
her a voice message. âReally? It seems like I have excellent taste.â Sylvia giggled and replied the same.
âYeah.â âI think they are quite fancy, but I donât know how to put them in words. Can you explain them to
me? So that I can act cool in front of the others.â âSure,â said Sylvia with a smile
She then voice-messaged him her explanation of the paintings. She offered him a detailed explanation of
her own thoughts for each and every painting. On the other end of the chat, Edmund was on the couch
listening to her voice as if it was some classical music piece. He softly closed his eyes, enjoying the
angelic tune in his ears. That was until Harry came over. âMaster Price?â
Edmund glared at him. âShut up.â Harry awkwardly zipped his mouth. A while later, after Edmund
listened to all Sylviaâs voice messages, he asked, âWhat is it?â Harry answered, âLloyd found out that
Sylvia has recently been spending most of her time with her kids at home, and after she sends them
back to the Cartersâ, she goes home. She was not with Odell at all.â
Edmund narrowed his eyes. Harry scratched his head awkwardly and said, âMaster Price, is it possible
that Sylvia doesnât want to see you?â Edmund looked askance at his man. âImpossible. If Syl doesnât
want to see me, she wouldnât have replied to my texts or voice messages.â She replied to every inquiry
of his, and if she really refused to see him, she would never answer him at all. Just like now, whereby
she offered a detailed explanation of every painting that he sent over.
Harry was baffled. âThen, why is she not coming out to see you?â Edmund hummed. âI bet itâs that prick
threatening her with something and stopping her from seeing me.â âDoesnât sound right. Odell is her ex-
husband. What right does he have to stop her from seeing you?â âOdell even brought his men to ruin our
date and took her away before my eyes.â
The insulting scene replayed in Edmundâs head and caused him to clench his teeth tightly. Harry
remained confused. âYeah, but why? Does he like Sylvia? I thought he already has a girlfriend.â The
more Harry tried to understand it, the more confused he got.
Edmund scoffed. âSyl trumps Tara in terms of looks and capabilities, and if I have my eyes on her, Iâm
sure that bastard Odell Carter isnât blind as well.â
Although he was curious why Odell would have divorced Sylvia because of Tara a few years ago, he was
now certain that Odell liked Sylvia.
Harry asked, âMaster Price, so what are we going to do now?â Edmund frowned in frustration. âTell Lloyd
to keep an eye on Syl. Iâll try to come up with something.â âOkay.â
Isabel and Liam returned to school.
Therefore, Sylvia could only see them at night after they came back. Although she made it clear to Odell
that she refused to comply with his perverted terms, she was still afraid to see him in person. Therefore,
right after the kids came back from school, she arrived at the Cartersâ.
The bodyguards did not stop her either. She played with the two little rascals and only left when it was
time for them to have dinner.
The kids usually finished dinner around 8 p.m. which was around the same time Odell came home.
His sports car rolled to a halt in front of the gate. After the bodyguard opened the door for him, he got out
and had a glance inside the house. âIs Sylvia here?â
The bodyguard said, âMs. Ross came, but she has already left.â Odell frowned and pursed his lips.
Surprisingly, he simply went inside the house without saying anything.
