Sylvia responded with a smile, âHe didnât bully me. Donât worry.â
âThatâs good.â Aunt Tonya put down the broom in her hand,
Sylvia thought of something and asked suspiciously, âAunt Tonya, didnât you see Odell earlier this morning?â Why did Aunt Tonya
seem so surprised to see him now? Aunt Tonya also looked puzzled. âI didnât see him. | was called out by Sebastian not long
after | got up. | only saw Odell when | came back.â Sylvia frowned. âSo, it wasnât you that told him that | hurt my leg because of
him?â Aunt Tonya quickly said, âOf course not.â
Sylvia choked and felt her face heat up.
That man had clearly lied to her!
Aunt Tonya saw that she looked upset and worriedly asked, âWhat's wrong, Syl?â
âIt's nothing. Iâm hungry. Letâs make breakfast.â âSure. Iâve already prepared the ingredients. I'll go get them now,â Aunt Tonya
said and went to the kitchen.
Sylvia glanced outside and followed her to the kitchen.
In the evening. Sylvia and Aunt Tonya had just brought dinner to the table when Odell came over, uninvited.
He wore dark loungewear, which gave his straight figure a slightly more down-to-earth air than usual.
When he came in, he sat down in the chair that he usually sat in.
Sylvia explained everything to Aunt Tonya during the day, so the latter merely glanced at him without saying anything. Isabel and
Liam obediently climbed into their seats.
Dinner passed calmly.
After the meal, Sylvia wanted to help Aunt Tonya clean up, but the latter sternly refused.
Thus, she limped over to the sofa and sat down.
As usual, she sat beside Liam. The little boy read his book while Sylvia took out her phone and prepared to read the news
released by the Art Academy. At that moment, Odell, who usually sat on the other side with Isabel, suddenly came over and sat
beside Sylvia Isabel sat on his lap, while holding a tablet in one hand and a snack in the other. She looked incredibly
comfortable.
Although a cartoon was playing on the tablet, and her mouth was munching away on her snack, Sylvia still felt awkward.
Inadvertently, she thought of the long kiss that she had shared with him that morning.
Her cheeks heated up, and her throat went dry. Without looking at him, she took a sip of water from her cup. âIs your leg better?â
Odell suddenly asked.
Sylvia paused for a moment before humming in reply. âHave you reapplied the medication?â he asked. She said honestly, âI'll
spray some on before going to bed later.â âHm.â
He did not say anything further, as he held Isabel with one hand while flipping through a book with the other.
A quietness settled upon the atmosphere.
Sylviaâs mood also quickly calmed down. She turned on her phone again and scrolled through some of the news that had been
released by the Art Academy, reading each one carefully.
In the brightly lit and spacious living room, the atmosphere was warm and harmonious that was rarely found here.
Meanwhile, outside the gate.
Under the shade of a thick tree, Thomas was leaning against a tree. With one hand in the pocket of his coat, he pinched a
cigarette between his fingers, and smoked as he observed the scene in the living room. A long time passed and it was only when
he had finished smoking the whole pack of cigarettes that he finally stepped away. His body was slender and thin in the night.
However, under his fluffy bangs was a fair complexioned face and a pair of beautiful eyes that were filled with gloom and
coldness.
