Chapter 551

Sylvia and Christopher arrived at the entrance. After showing their invitation card, the butler guided them inside

They followed the butler along the pathway and went into a castle-like house.

Dinner was held in the main hall on the first floor. In the center of the ceiling of the spacious venue, there was a crystal

chandelier that shed its glamorous light all across the hall.

After bringing them into the hall, the butler wore an apologetic smile and said, “Please make yourself at home. Due to our

master’s health, it might take him longer to come downstairs.” Christopher politely answered, “It’s totally fine. We understand.”

The butler excused himself before he went to serve other guests.

Sylvia, Christopher, and the others sat down on one of the couches.

At the same time, there was a young woman in a sky blue dress and wearing beautiful makeup above the spiral stairs, watching

them from afar. She was looking in Sylvia’s direction with a sense of prying. Moments later, a white-haired elderly woman, who

was covered in expensive jewelry, walked over to the young woman and asked, “Lily, why are you out here?” “Oh, it’s nothing. |

just came out for a walk.” Madam Springsteen furrowed her brows and looked in the direction Lily was staring. She saw a group

of people chatting on the couch. They were dressed commonly and probably were the artists the old man had invited. She

restricted her disdainful gaze and was more perplexed than before. “Lily, what exactly are you looking at?” “Some irrelevant

person.” Lily then turned around and elegantly paced towards her room. As his ex-wife, Sylvia was indeed beautiful but

commonly dressed, which was expected of someone without a powerful background.

Downstairs, after having a seat, Sylvia sensed that someone was eyeing her. She scanned around and saw groups of people

chatting among themselves. She then looked up at the spiral stars but saw no one there.

“Am | overthinking? Sylvia put the thought aside and munched on some fruits and snacks while listening to Christopher’s chat.

She waited for quite some time and still did not see the host of the event anywhere Sensing the urge to use the tollet, she

excused herself from Christopher and the others before heading to the washroom However, after she left the hall for the

washroom, tumultuous noises came from inside the hall m ediately, the guests in the hall got up from their seats

The butler ran upstairs and helped Master Springsteen down the stairs. Together with him was Madam Springsteen and her two

sons and daughters-in-law. Even her daughter and son-in law came out

The crowd at the entrance automatically moved aside and paved a path

Under the glamorous light, the man’s towering figure appeared in the guests’ eyes. His black custom-made suit complemented

his straight figure, and he seemed to exude a strong aura. Each step he took would further expand the path in between the

crowd. The guests wanted to greet or talk to him, but they dared not make a noise.

The quiet atmosphere was broken when Master Springsteen brought his family in front of the man

Master Springsteen smiled and said, “Master Carter, it's great to finally meet you in person.”

Odell shook the man’s hand. “You're too kind. | have heard a lot about you. You have seniority, so please just address me by my

name.” “Haha... Okay okay, let’s go inside,” Master Springsteen said with a delighted smile.

Odell nodded and walked by his side.

Madam Springsteen was on the other side of her husband, and her eyes were glued to Odell. The more she looked at him, the

harder it was for her to suppress the urge to grin. At first, she thought that Ramona was exaggerating when she described

Odell’s appearance, but now she could verify that the man was even more handsome than described. His looks coupled with his

capabilities made him the perfect man that was considered rare. Odell accepted Springsteen's hospitality and took a seat on the

couch. He looked around and spotted Christopher and his group, but he did not see Sylvia anywhere.

She didn’t come?’
