Chapter 402

Sylvia looked at her with an indifferent look in her eyes.

Tara smirked and said in a smug voice, “Sylvia, it was Odell who asked me to visit Grandma. I’m sure

you won’t mind.” Sylvia smiled a crooked smile and replied crossly, “I do mind. Would you mind getting

out of here?”

The smirk on Tara’s face was wiped away instantly.

Sylvia continued staring at her with hostility. Before long, Tara formed a smile again. “Sylvia, Odell did

ask me to come. He also requested that I visit Grandma more often in the future so if you’re not happy

with me being here, why don’t you talk to Odell about it? If he wants me to leave, I’ll leave.”

Sylvia scoffed. “Then what’s the point of asking me if I mind?”

Tara’s eyes gleamed. “It’s just that… we used to be friends. I just wanted to talk to you.” “You sure you’re

not just intentionally saying that to irritate me so I’d suspect you got together with Odell again?”

Tara’s face turned visibly pale.

She never expected Sylvia to expose her scheme in such a calm and straightforward manner. This

woman should be fuming with jealousy and rage any second now. Sylvia could not be bothered to play

this foolish game of exchanging witty insults back and forth. She grunted and walked past Tara, heading

upstairs. She was not expecting Tara to immediately trail after her.

Sylvia had just entered the bedroom when Tara pushed the door open.

Tara seemed like she had transformed into another person now that she had come upstairs. She stood

at the doorway and observed Sylvia’s room with a look of disgust.

“This room is so dark. Why do you live in some kind of ruin like this?” Sylvia snapped crossly, “Close the

door.” Tara snorted. “Sylvia, do me a favor and drop the act. Stop acting all high and mighty and accept

the fact that no matter how hard you try to seduce Odell, he’s still going to use you as a device to vent

his anger.”

Sylvia felt a tightness in her chest and glared at her adversary. “Tara, you’d better get out of here right

now!”

Tara laughed at this threat. “Wait, was I right? It’s strange to me that you’d do something like pushing

Grandına down the cliff with Edmund helping you when you finally succeed in remarrying Odell You’ve

ruined Grandma’s life. How could you be so evil?”

Sylvia glared at her murderously “You want to repeat that?”

Tara turned up her nose at Sylvia and taunted, “I’m saying that you’re a shameless b*tch!”

Almost instantly, Sylvia lunged at her and delivered a blow to her face.

The smack was as loud as thunder.

Tara’s eyes widened with shock. “How dare you hit me?!” Sylvia slapped her on the other cheek with her

backhand. Tara stumbled several steps backward, writhing with pain. She covered her swollen face and

gave Sylvia a sinister look. Sylvia was expecting her to strike back, but that was when she suddenly

collapsed and sat on the floor, covering her face and whimpering weakly, “It hurts…” Sylvia frowned. It

did not take long for her to understand why Tara reacted this way.

While she was crying her heart out, Odell’s tall and distinctive body suddenly appeared.

He approached Tara and helped her up, immediately noticing her reddening and swollen cheeks.

His expression darkened. “What happened to your face?”

“It’s just… Sylvia wasn’t happy when she saw me coming to see Grandma. I only came up to explain to

her I was only here to visit Grandma and nothing else, but she refused to believe me

Odell glanced at Sylvia. There was a storm inside his eyes. Sylvia grimaced. Tara probably saw Odell

approaching before she came upstairs. This would explain how she timed it so well. She intentionally

riled Sylvia up so she would hit her, then Odell would stumble into the scene. With such supreme acting

skills, it would seem like time had done nothing to blunt her skills.
