Chapter 292
Love After Marriage: Mr. Lancaster's Hidden Wife
Chapter 292 Sylvia raised her hand slightly and covered her face with the bouquet of roses. However, in
the next moment, a strong hand took hold of her wrist and pulled her hand down, revealing her face to
the others.
She saw Madam Carter and the butler smiling at her. She also saw Isabel and Liamâs adorably curious
and confused faces.
Smiling awkwardly, Sylvia said, âGrandmother, I came here to see Isabel and Liam.â
Madam Carter smirked. âItâs okay, I understand.â Odell then released her wrist. After he greeted Madam
Carter, he sat on the couch and casually picked up a book to read.
Isabel and Liam came over to Sylvia.
Isabel tilted her head and asked, âMommy, why did you come home with the Baddie? And why are you
holding a big bouquet of flowers?â
Before Sylvia answered her, Liam said, âThe flowers must be from Daddy.â
âWhy did Baddie give Mommy flowers?â âItâs because he likes Mommy, and he is trying to win her heart.â
âI thought he liked the ugly woman?
âHe must have moved on.â
The two little one continued to chat with each other without noticing the stiff expression on Sylviaâs, or
the petrified look on Odellâs. Neither did they notice Madam Carter covering her mouth as she snickered
away.
A while later, after their little conversation ended, Isabel frowned at her mother and indignantly said,
âMommy, that meanie is a stinky bad guy, donât say yes to him.â Sylvia was speechless, and so was
Odell.
Madam Carter and the butler were also stunned.
Liam consoled his sister, âSis, Daddy will turn over a new leaf.â
Once again, everyone else was silenced. Isabel crossed her arms and looked away. âHmph, I wonât
agree to it anyway!â Liam patted her head and said, âWhy wonât you give Daddy a chance?â
Sylvia stared at the little boy. He should have said that to his mother, not his sister.
After the reassuring pat on her head, Isabel calmed down. The sulky look on her face faded but she
continued to pout.
âLet me think about it alone for a while.â
After stating such a phrase that belied her age, Isabel ran towards her room and Liam went after her.
Sylvia heard a loud âbangâ as the little girl slammed the door shut. The little girl was obviously unhappy.
Sylvia put the roses aside and headed towards the little girlâs room. Back in the living room, Madam
Carter regained her composure after a while and she sighed helplessly. The butler said in a small voice,
âMadam, Isabel is just throwing a tantrum. She will be fine after a while.â
âLetâs hope so.â
Madam Carter slanted her eyes in Odellâs direction.
Odell had remained seated on the couch. His brows were tightly furrowed and his eyes narrowed as he
stared at the roses that Sylvia had put aside. For some reason, there was a complicated look on his
face.
On the other hand, Sylvia took quite a lot of effort in order to coax the little girl to open the door.
The door opened to reveal the little girl with a frown on her face and pouty lips. Even her cheeks had
puffed out.
Sylvia took her into her arms and stroked her little head. In a gentle voice, she said, âIsabel, this is
between your Daddy and I. Itâs an adult problem. I will handle it, donât worry, okay? Donât be angry,
please?â Isabelâs lips protruded even further. âBut Aunt Tonya said that the Baddie almost beat you to
death before. I donât want him to pick on you anymore.â Sylviaâs eyes warmed as she said with a smile,
âIt wasnât that serious. Aunt Tonya was just exaggerating. Iâm sure it wonât happen again.â She was no
longer her old self who was deeply fixated on him and she believed that she would never marry him
again. It was then that Liam joined the conversation and said to Isabel, âSis, if Mommy and Daddy were
together, we would be able to live with Mommy everyday and we would be able to sleep with Mommy
too.â Liamâs big eyes looked at them expectantly.
