Chapter 530

Sylvia told Aunt Tonya about her divorce from Odell.

After she finished, Aunt Tonya stated, “I will support you whatever your final decision is.”

Sylvia smiled and informed her, “I’ve already bought a new place and everything has been set up. I’m planning to move in

tomorrow.” Aunt Tonya was taken aback by this, “Are you in such a hurry? Have you talked to Isabel and Liam about it?”

“| have.”

“While you were away. Isabel and Liam began to grow rather attached to Odell,” Aunt Tonya muttered before asking, “How did

you tell them?”

Sylvia answered truthfully, “I didn’t tell them about the divorce, | just told them that we'll be moving to a new place that would

make it easier for me to get to work and for them to go to their kindergarten.” “I see, | suppose that’s fine.”

It was getting late already Sylvia looked at the time and said, “Aunt Tonya, why don’t you get some rest? I’ll accompany

Grandmother for a while.”

“Okay, I'll go and pack my things.” Aunt Tonya got up and left. The room fell silent.

As Sylvia sat by the bed and looked at the old lady who was still sleeping, the look in her eyes softened.

She took Madam Carter’s arm and gently massaged her arm the same way she used to do when she had been imprisoned here

by Odell. “Grandma, | just got divorced from Odell. Please don’t be angry or feel bad for me, we were just never meant to be

together.”

None of this would have happened if she had never gotten together with him.

Whether it had been their first or second marriages, both had been an endless torment for her. Enough was enough. Even

Madam Carter had ended up in a vegetative state. She and Odell were simply incompatible. Sylvia continued, “It'll be a good

thing for us to be apart. Don’t worry, he’s still Isabel and Liam’s father and | won't stop him from visiting them. I’ll also bring them

to visit you from time to time as well.”

She said sostly Just on the other side of the door. Odell’s tall figure was standing right in front of it. Through the wooden panel of

the door, he had heard every word that Sylvia had said to

Madam Carter and he tightened his lips to a line.

After some time passed, his phone suddenly vibrated.

He turned around and walked to the end of the corridor before putting the phone to his ear,” What is it?”

cliffs voice was trembling on the other end of the phone, “Master Carter, Miss Tara...” It took him a couple of seconds to

structure his sentence properly before continuing. “She just cut her wrists. She tried to commit suicide.” Odell's eyes were like a

pool of still water, “Is she dead?” “No,” Cliff informed, “She was found just in time and saved. She just called me and begged me

to look for you. She wants to see you.”

Odell’s eyes gleamed with ice, “No.” “Alright.”

“Wait.

Cliff prompted, “Sir, do you have any other orders?”

“There is no need to report her to the authorities any longer. Also, you no longer have to update me about how she’s doing. |

don’t need to know whether she’s dead or alive.”

She must have had a breakdown and chosen suicide when she had been fired from the art academy and had her name taken

down from the board of the art association.

This was what she deserved for what she had done to Sylvia.

He would not continue to prosecute her, seeing as he owed her for what she had done for him more than a decade ago on that

fatelul rainy night. However, he would have nothing to do with her from this point on.

Cliff answered dutifully, ‘Understood, I'll make the arrangements.”

The next morning, after sending Isabel and Liam to kindergarten, Sylvia and Aunt Tonya packed their bags and moved into

Sylvia’s new place. The children’s luggage was packed and taken there as well. After everything had been unpacked and tidied

up, it was already evening. Aunt Tonya bought groceries and made dinner at home while Sylvia went to the kindergarten to pick

up Isabel and Liam. The two of them still came out behind most of the other children. When they saw their mother, they smiled in

unison.
