Cliff responded softly, “The people downstairs have been keeping an eye out, but they haven’t spotted Second Master Carter’s

figure at all. However, our people who are following the Madam said that he went out together with her not long after lunch.”

Crack!

The teacup instantly shattered.

Odell’s expression suddenly turned cold and gloomy.

Cliff quickly closed his mouth, not even daring to breathe loudly. After a long time, a sinister snort came from him. “I didn’t expect

him to be the infatuated type.”

He had allowed Carter Corporation to develop to this point, yet he was still able to hold himself back instead of taking advantage

of this situation to take over the company. He was even taking his woman out. What was that if not infatuation?’ Cliff trembled as

he looked at Odell’s face and asked carefully, “Master Carter, should we continue to wait for Second Master Carter to come

over?” Odell glanced at him.

Cliff was so scared that he took two steps back.

Then, Odell stood up and strode out with his long legs. His face was cold and stern, and he spoke as he strode, “Call the police.

I'll get all of them in one go!” So, they dared to tamper with the project funds under his nose?

They dared to betray him. In that case, he would let them all rot in jail! 1

In the forest park, Sylvia, who was immersed in her artwork, was still sketching on the piece of paper. It did not take long before

she had finished the simple painting.

She walked up to Thomas with the painting and asked with a smile, “Thomas, what do you think?”

He looked over.

The scenery in the painting was dreamy yet bold, and it was clear that the subject of the painting was the current location. Even

the pavilion behind him as well as his figure had been included.

With just a few simple dabs of paint, his painted figure was made to be slender and beautiful, and it seemed to exude a

mysterious aura.

The corners of his lips subconsciously curled up. He looked at her and acknowledged, “It’s very good.”

After a pause, he asked, “May | have this painting?” Sylvia smiled. “Of course.”

He could not help but tweak her nose.

She froze.

He laughed. “There was paint on your nose.” Embarrassed, Sylvia said, “I'd like to go to the ladies. You can let the painting dry

for a while.”

“Sure.”

There was a washroom not far away, so she handed over the painting to him before jogging over.

When she got to the washroom, she subconsciously looked at the mirror above the sink. Her face was completely clean. Her

nose was unblemished either. Where was the paint mark he mentioned?

Helpless, she pursed her mouth and went to relieve herself before coming back out.

Thomas was standing under the pavilion as he waited for her. His slender figure leaned lazily against the pillar. One hand was in

the pocket of his pants as the other hand held her painting.

The weather was very warm at that moment, so he had taken his coat off and slung it over one of his shoulders. The breeze blew

the bangs at the side of his forehead, and his fair face was particularly handsome and charming in the sunlight. His lips curled up

when he saw her. That smile made it seem like their surroundings had lost their color in comparison to him.

Sylvia was stunned for a few seconds before realizing that she had spaced out for a while. Her face heated up, and she quickly

composed herself before walking over to him. “It’s almost dry now. Let's go for a walk.” He rolled up the painting as he spoke

before taking hold of one of her hands again.

Sylvia looked at the hand he was holding, hummed in reply, and walked with him along the sidewalk.

There was a small forest in front of them.

Both he and Sylvia entered the forest and strolled there for a while before they finally made their way out of the woods.

On the other side of the woods, the scenery was similar to the previous location. However, when they got out of the woods, she

unexpectedly found a dazzling golden yellow reflected in her eyes.
