Chapter 580

The car journeyed back to Sylvia's place in silence. As soon as the car stopped, Aunt Tonya immediately got out to help Sylvia

out of the car. However, Odell beat her to it. Opening the other door, he wrapped his arm around Sylvia’s waist and carried her

out of the car. Sylvia glared at him.

Odell pursed his lips as he carried her inside. He carried her all the way to her room, only letting her go when he put her down on

her bed. Sylvia huffed and turned away from him.

However, even after a long time, the room remained quiet and the man did not make any move to leave.

Annoyed, she turned to him and asked, “Why are you still here?”

With his arms crossed in front of him, he stood by the bed and gazed at her intensely. “How did you hurt your leg?” She knew if

she continued to keep quiet, he would never leave. She gulped and begrudgingly said, “I slipped and fell.” “Where?”

“At the front door.” Odell pursed his lips and said gruffly, “Be careful next time.” Sylvia ignored him.

Odell stared at her in silence for a few moments before he went out.

Aunt Tonya was standing just outside the door. When Odell came out, she shot a cautious glare at him.

Odell was confused by her hostility.

Aunt Tonya stared at him for a few more seconds before she entered Sylvia’s room.

Without staying any longer, Odell then left Sylvia’s house and returned to his own house next door

Sebastian welcomed him back as soon as he walked through the door.

“Sir, where have you been? It’s late.”

Odell said, “I got caught up with something.” Sebastian did not question him further about it but switched the topic instead.

“Tonya came by earlier and asked me to contact Jim. She said that Madam saw a piece of news about a car crash and she

thought that it was you She got worried and asked Tonya to look for me to confirm that you were alright.”

Odell froze. “What did you say?” Sebastian furrowed his brows and repeated what he had just said. Odell furrowed his brows

tightly and asked, “When did Aunt Tonya come over!

Sebastian glanced at his phone and said, “Two hours earlier

Two hours earlier?

Odell had met Sylvia at the hospital an hour and a half ago. It would also have taken twenty to thirty minutes to reach the

hospital in Old District irom the house Therefore, she must have hurt her leg when she had toid Aunt Tonya to look ior Sebastian

Since she had fallen down in front of the front door, could it be that she had become andous when she had thought that he was

involved in the car crash and accidentally slipped on her way out? All of a sudden, he thought of something and pulled his phone

out.

There were no missed calls but there was an unread message

It was from Isabel's phone.

“Are you back yet?”

The text was from two hours ago. Since it was already late, Isabel must have already been asleep at that time.

The little girl would have called him directly if she wanted to talk, not text him.

Therefore, it could only have been from Sylvia. He recalled the cold look that Sylvia had given him at the hospital and the hostility

that Aunt Tonya had shown him in front of Sylvia’s room.

Aller thinking about it carefully, he said to Sebastian, “Sebastian, please arrange for some men to clear the snow in front of her

yard and make sure to install anti-slip flooring on all the stairs there before morning.”

Sebastian smiled and said, “Right away, Sir.”

He then went out to make the necessary arrangements.

Odell remained standing where he was with his phone in his hand. The text from ‘Isabel’ was sull displayed on the phone screen,

After a long silence, a small smile appeared on his face.

“She's as stubbom as ever.”
